  Name Suffix: Senior died 7/25/1864, age 73 1820 census, pg 352, Juniata Twp, Perry Co, 30110-00100 1830 census 1840 census 1850 census, pg 244, #1086/1096, Walker Twp, Juniata Co, Samuel 56 none, George 21 laborer, Jacob 20, Joseph 19, Barbara 18, Wm 6 (Abraham on pg 245) 1860 census, #106, Walker Twp, Juniata Co, Samuel 70, gentleman (at Jacob Kauffman's) Note: a Samuel Kneisle and Maria Patterson, married 4-14-1813 at Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster, PA!! (Maria Catharine??). What are the chances that a differentSamuel Kneisle in the same area married a different Patterson girl? Maybe Samuel married Maria Patterson first, then he married Maria's sister Catharine? Since I didn't see the original record, maybe the marriage isn't really to "Maria"?
