She was born in 1777 and died in 1866 and is buried in Penna. I will be visiting that area in two weeks and plan to take pictures at the cemetery. Jacob (1802-1884) was married to Sarah Bilger (1805-1886). Both are buried in Troxelville. I am related to them via my Mother's side. Her father, Charles (1877-1947), was the son of Jacob (1831-1910), son of Jacob (1802-1884), son of Henry (1779-1858), son of Heinrich (1748-1778), son of Tobias (1718-1791), son of Christopher (1682-1756), son of Johannes (1660-1740). The Troxelville Cemetery is the burial place of my Gr Grandfather and GG Grandfather. I didn't realize until recently that my GGG grandfather and GGG grandmother were also buried there. Have visited it several times over the years but didn't know the connection on the other names -- now need to take more photographs while they're still, I hope, readable. I understand that Isaac (1836-1869) and Susannah Knepp are also buried there, as well as some of their children. My Mother, 88, is still living and I'm taking her up to a reunion (her mother's side). I'm hoping to meet with some of her other cousins this trip and get some information before they too are gone. One that we planned to meet passed away two weeks ago at 94. We plan to spend an additional week just for research. Am searching out the resting place of Heinrich (killed by Indians) as well as the remains (still standing -- some on the historic register) of farms and homes to photograph.
