    (read-Y, write-N, speak English -N), widower

    sp - 1854 Joseph Wagner and Sarah

    Harrison's will mentions his heir Felix Yoder and also a Mary Yoder. I had thought
    that maybe Mary was Harrison's single sister. Probably, it's his nephew Joel
    Yoder's wife (Mary Wetzel). Harrison was living with Joel in 1900. Maybe Joel
    married the Mary Wetzel who was Harrison's house keeper in 1870/80?? After raising
    her, she married his nephew and they took him in during his old age. Note that the
    first two children of Joel are Hannah and Harrison.

    Joel and Mary were married 30 Apr 1881 at Kimmel Church

    (perhaps Mary Wetzel was related to Harrison's sister Sarah who married a Wetzel?)
    (or the Mary age 4, listed in Iowa, d/o Reuben Wetzel and Matilda?)
    (maybe a daughter of one of Hannah's sisters?)

    There is no tombstone for Harrison. His plot isshown on the map in the church
    and the location matches the county death record. There seemed to be enough
    room on the plot for him and his wife Hannah, though no dates are shown.
    Cause of Death: of paralysis

    Harrison married Hannah WAGNER 7 May 1853, Upper Mahanoy Twp, Northumberland Co, PA. Hannah (daughter of Johannes WAGNER and Maria Magdalena (Polly) KRÄMER) was born 29 Dec 1834, Upper Mahantongo Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA; died Between 1880 and 1900, Upper Mahanoy Twp, Northumberland Co, PA; was buried St. Paul's Union Church, Pitman, Eldred Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA (No Stone).

    • _UID: 497EB9D08DDC49A68FF29E4F766EFC6C623B

    Notes:

    I'm uncertain when/where Hannah died. She was alive in 1880 according to the
    census. She's probably buried next to Harrison since from the map in the church,
    it looked like enough room for two persons to be buried in the plot (thereare no stones).
