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?Daniel married Elisabeth HARTLEIN 1831, Upper Mahantongo Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA.

Notes:
1860 census, pg 450/#1166, Eldred, Catherine 28 (with grandparents)
My AuntSue [Knerr] remembers Catharina. She said that Catharine had told the
children that she was going to get a widow's pension and have lots of money
someday (after her husband died). The paper work shows that by the time the
government was done hassling her over some obvious clerical issues, she had
died and the check had to be returned.
There is some uncertainty if Joseph was a son ofDaniel W. Consider this
excerpt from Catharine (Maurer) Knarr's application for Civil War pension benefits:
On this 22, day of May AD 1917, personally appeared before me a Justice of the
Peace, in and for the aforesaid County, duly authorized to administer oath, James M.
Knarr, age 45 years a resident of Pitman, RFD in the County of Schuylkill and State
of Pennsylvania, a Son of above named claimant, who saith that his mother the said
Catharine Knarr, is now absent minded and not able to follow and attend to her
business, he therefore in her stead offers in evidance the following:
We have found a record in the family Bible belonging to the Claimant's father, Daniel
W. Maurer, and in thatBible is recorded the names and the date of each child's
births of the said Daniel W. Maurer,
Catharine Maurer, now the claimant born March 12, 1832.
Mary Maurer, Born February 23, 1834.
Anjalina Maurer, Born January 11, 1836,
Frank Maurer, Born Novemeber 28, 1838,
Hannah Maurer, Born October 22, 1841.
Magdalena and Aron Maurer, Twins, and were born in the year 1844.
In this record are no erasure 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 custom in prior generations to keep family records in Bibles.
The said claimant Catharine Knarr, was during the years 1850, and 1860, living
with her Grand-fatherJacob Maurer, in Eldred Township, Schuylkill County, Penna,
at the place now called Pitman, so to me stated.
The claimants parents Daniel W. Maurer and Elizabeth Maurer, lived during the
years 1850 and 1860 in Eldred Township, Schuylkill County, Penna., at the place
now called Pitman.,
All the above namedchildren of said Daniel W, Maurer, and Elizabeth Maurer,
lived during the years 1850 and 1860, except Magdalena Maurer,
The said James M. Knarr, is well known to be reuputable and entitled to credit,
and who being duly sworn, to the best of his knowledge that the facts aforesaid
in relation as stated are correct and true; and further declares that I have not personal
interest. signed "James M. Knerr" and it looks like it was overwritten with "Knarr".Catharina married Charles KNARR 15 Mar 1868, Hepler's Church Of God, Pitman, Eldred Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA. Charles (son of Nathan KNARR and Sarah SCHWENK) was born 12 Dec 1843, Schuylkill Haven, Schuylkill Co, PA; died 27 Mar 1916, Pitman, Eldred Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA; was buried 30 Mar 1916, Hepler's Church Of God, Pitman, Eldred Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA.

though I've seen some people refer to him as "James Maurer Knerr", he's listed
as "James Monroe Knerr" on his death certificate, informant being Charles Knerr
(a son). James Monroe was also the name of James' son.
he's also listed as James Monroe Knerr on the delayed Certiface of Birth of my
grandmother Minnie (Knerr) Yoder
It's interesting that James had children named Zeno and Ida, and his uncle Isaac
(brother of Charles) had a daughter Zeno Ida in 1870 in Schuylkill Haven. I've
heard that the Pitman Knerr's kept in touch with the Schuylkill Haven cousins.
I can't find James Knerr in the 1900census. Mom said the family might have
been in Tremont at one time (remembering from her Mom saying that).
