    A Reiner Genealogy, by Rev John L Reiner, says John died in Clearfield Co, PA

    The Wagner Family History by Avice Morgan references a Schuylkill County
    History which says John lived with his daughter Esther in Clearfield Co and died there.

    Idea - maybe wf is Elisabeth Klock, d/o Peter Klock Sr??

    FromBeer's History of Schuylkill County, pg 1041
    The Reiner family is one of longstanding in this section of Schuylkill
    county, Pa. John Reiner, the great-grandfather of Mrs. Stephens, lived
    in the Mahantongo valley, where he followed farming. Later in life he
    removed to Clearfield county, Pa., and he died at the home of his daughter
    Esther. His children were: George and Jacob (twins),John and Esther.

    George Reiner, son of John, above, was borin in the Mahantongo valley,
    lived for a time in Hegins township, this county, where he carried on farming,
    and in 1854, settled inPorter township, where he bought a tract of 150
    acres at what is now known as Reiner City. The town was built on his
    land and named after him. The post office is known as Muir. He became
    a prominent citizen of the township and was called upon to fill many offices of
    trust, serving as tax collector, supervisor and treasurer, and his cooperation
    could always be relied upon for any good cause, his honorable intentions making
    his participation particularly desirable...
