    Notes:

    I'm still bothered by the fact that her birth date in the baptism is differentfrom
    that on the tombstone. The tombstone has at St Pauls has died 15 Aug 1855,
    age 77-3-3, which works out to 12 May 1778 instead of 12 Feb 1777. At least
    the "12" is right, and I could take being off a year, but with the month, too, I always
    have a little doubt. Still, the baptism sponsorships strongly suggest the Dunkelberger
    relation. Also, someone doing the math wrong may be explainable.

    A possible sceneraio is that Magdalena, who was absent in the 1850 census,
    had moved up to Shamokin area with grandson Benjamin Klock. When she
    died, he buried her locally and may have been off on her birth date.

    4/12/00 - I found the account records for Magdalena Klock in the Northumberland
    County courthouse. Isaac Snyder was the administrator (he was married to Magdalena's
    granddaughter Elizabeth). Inventory was done 14 Mar 1856. Various dispersements
    were made, but uncertain what happened to remainder. See Orphan's Court
    accounts 2:183

    Will book 4:484, 15 Feb 1856 To Isaac Snyder (Letters of Admin I believe)
    (Isaac is her grandson-in-law, she was probably living withthem at the time)

    Maria married Johannes KLOCK Abt 1797, Upper Mahantongo Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA. Johannes (son of John Peter KLOCK and Margaretha DRUCKENMILLER) was born 14 Aug 1777, Upper Milford Twp, Lehigh Co, PA; died 1 Jun 1833, Upper Mahantongo Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA; was buried Howerter's Church, Upper Mahanoy Twp, Northumberland Co, PA.

    from the date of death, it seems he may have died in the Civil War.
    William K Herb, 9 Sep 1861, Co A, 50th PA Regiment? No, he was age 21
    at time of enrollment and lived in Hubley.

    One might guess that the 1850 census is correct and thatthe 1860 is someone else,
    ie the Catherine burial goes with someone else - nothey're buried together.

    Note: in History of Northumberland, pg 567, it mentions Lewis K Yoder married
    Sarah Herb, d/o William and Catharine (Kehler) Herb.

    Maybe, married c 1850 Catharine Kehler (1833-1858) and
    c1859 Catharine Bolich (1836-1878)

    Notes from his writeup in Schuylkill County Biographies:

    Smith, Daniel H., a merchant and dealer in farm implements at Haas, Pa., was
    born in Eldred township, Schuylkill county, Oct 9, 1850, a son of John S.
    and Judith (Herb) Smith, the father being a mechanic in Haas during all
    of his mature years. He was a master at his trade of blacksmithing and was
    able to design and make anything within the sphere of his business.

    *snip*

    The subject of this sketch was educated in the public schools and at the age
    of nineteen started on hisbusiness career independent of home counsels or
    restrictions.

    He married Miss Susanna Derr, of Fountain Springs, Pa, and they have four
    children living,the youngest of the family, John, having died at the age of four years.
    The eldest is Emma, now the wife of James Knerr, of Eldred township; Jane is
    married to E.W. Brosious, also of Eldred township; Cyrus, a blacksmith by
    occupation, married Clara Hepler and resides at his parental home; Dirzah became
    the wife of William Treon and resides at Locust Dale, Pa.

    Mr Smith served an apprenticeship to the blacksmith's trade during his youth,
    and worked at that business for thirty-four years. He owns a farm which he
    conducts in connection withhis mercantile business at Haas. This includes a
    full line of staple and fancy groceries, drugs, confectionery, tobacco and cigars,
    farm implements, etc.He has been assessor of Eldred township for fifteen
    years; served twelve years as a member of the township school board; has been
    local agent of the North Western Mutual Fire Insurance Company for
    twenty years; and has been postmaster at Haas for twenty-one years.

    He is a man thoroughly well read, and a leader in the councils of Republicanism.
    His friends are legion, and his acquaintance extends to the remotest corners
    of the county.
