  • Notes 
    • internet says husband is Samuel Michael...

      Appolonia is not mentioned in the Orphan court records, does she really fit here?

      information on her is fromLarry Knarr

      Note that the Schaffers went to Jefferson County. Perhaps she was raised
      by a sibling of her mother.

      Is there any chance that the following records are for a different Knerr family
      at Stone Valley Church? That's a ways from Howerters. Catharine Schaffer
      would have been married in the Pitmanarea by this time.

      Notes from Kalalena

      Hi Tim,

      The Stone valley communion registers and confirmations were located at the
      Historical Society when Iwas in Sunbury years ago. But, it seems to me some of
      the books were missingas I'd swear there was another volume when I was first there.

      Confirmed - 12 June 1831

      Isaac Knerr, aged 16 years
      Abbalonia Knerr, aged 16 years [ wonder twins?? or cousins??]
      Benjamin Witmer, aged 19 [ md. one of Michael gals]
      Maria M. Michael, aged 17 years

      Communion - 12 May 1833

      Christian Michael
      Johannes Michael
      Benjamin Witmer
      Magdalena Michael
      Abbalonia Michael [she is now married!]
      Catharina Michel

      [ 34 men and 38 women communed that day]

      Per Appellonia "Abby" (KNERR) MICHAEL'S Gravestone [ my Great-Great Grandmother] the age given calculates her birth to circa 9
      March 1815. Thus, she'd only been a "child" when her father died!! I'm wondering if she & Isaac, Jr. were "twins" and simply "overlooked" her. (on genforum)
