      Charles Knarr Civil War pension file has this, 22 May 1917:
      "We have found a record in the family Bible belonging to the
      Claimant's father, Daniel W. Maurer, and in that Bible is recorded
      the names and the date of each childs' births of the said Daniel W.
      Maurer,

      Catharine Maurer, now the claimant born Marrch 12, 1832.
      Mary Maurer, Born February 23, 1834.
      Anjalina Maurer, Born January 11, 1836.
      Frank Maurer, Born November 28, 1838.
      Hannah Maurer, Born October22, 1841.
      Magdalena and Aron Maurer, Twins, and were born in the year 1844.

      In this record are no erasures nor alterations.
      This record is a reliable one, being it is made in the family bible
      of the father of the claimant, as it was the cusom in prior
      generations to keep family records in Bibles.

      The said claimant Catharine Knarr, was during the years 1860, and
      1860, living with her Grand-father Jacob Maurer, in Eldred Township,
      Schuylkill County, Penna., at the place now called Pitman, so to
      me stated."

      will of Daniel W 1882/1887mentions:
      - wf Elisabeth
      - c/o Aaron, viz George Frances, Daniel and Elisabeth

      will of Elisabeth mentions:
      - Ahron's kids
      - Catharine, w/o Charles Knarr
      - Hennah, w/o Emanuel Gheres
      - Frank (actually, his children)
      ? no mention of Angelina? upset that she married her first cousin?

      Note - the middle initial 'W' was for Wehry

      Note - census lists Joseph with Daniel Maurer and Elisabeth
      but I wonder if he wasn't just raised by them. Elisabeth was 46 at
      the time of Joseph's birth. He's not mentioned in the will of Elisabeth.
      It doesn't have the family relationship shown in 1860 census.

      also, he's not listed in Charles Knarr's pension application (which has
      a list of Daniel W. Maurer's children pulled from a family bible).

      Maybe he was a daughter of Catharine who would have been 21 at the time.
      Or daughter of Maria Anna (who died unmarried)
      Joseph Osman in 1870? in Lee Twp, Allegan Co, Michigan in 1900?
      Joseph Maurer of Canal Twp, Venango Co in 1900?
