    1. [PAYork] looking for information on George and Catherine Beck, Bonge, Wilt
    2. Elaine Wendt
    3. My 3rd great grandmother born Cathrine Wilt was my 3rd great grandfather Frederick Bonge's widow with 6 children . He died in 1813 In 1817 she married George Beck in Trinity Lutheran Church in York. After that I have found only 3 definite references to them . On Sept. 10 1823 her father Johannes Wilt died and was buried in Quickel's cemetery. In his will Catherine is listed as wife of George Beck. In March 1832 Catherine and George were listed as sponsors when her grandson , my g.grandfather Alfred Wilt Bonge/Bongey was baptized at the First Moravian Church in York.Catherine's paternal grandmother was Barbara Groff. In the Groff Book 1 she is listed on page 152 as M221 Catherine Wilt b. Aug 12 1781 in Dover twp. , m. George Beck. I do not know if they had children of their own or where or when they died although an undocumented source on the internet put her death as 1850. I would appreciate any information on George and Catherine Beck.Thank you for any help. Elaine from Wisconsin
