This is the information from that book if you haven't seen it already: Henry Kauffman ( -Mar. 14 1796) md.Anna Maria. He died intestate, a resident of York Twp.,York, pa. He was listed as a taxable in 1783. His property was administered by the widow and Michael Seiz, the gunsmith, who later purchased a small part of the farm from the son Samuel. The farm apparently was between Dallastown and Spry. The widow seems to have married in 1806 to Samuel Moser, Jr. I am not aware of a Solomon md. to Whilhelmina or a Mary. My connections with the Kauffmans are: Elizabeth Kauffman daughter of Henry, who md. John Barnhart and Solomon Kauffman son of Henry, who md. Rachel Dougherty. I found a tombstone in Blymire's cemetery many years ago that said: Susannah K. Dougherty d. 10 Apr 1837 age 43 years. Do you know anything about this woman? I neglected to take a picture and now the stone isn't there. In the Kauffman book it lists a Susan Haas with the same death date, md. to Samuel Kauffman, son of Henry. In the Blymire cemetery record it lists a Susanna Kauffman with the same dates that I've given above. I copied the name and dates as I saw them from the stone when I was there many years ago. This is a puzzle that I'd like solved. Where do you fit in with Solomon and Rachel? Cheryl Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
