Other Events:

• Confirmation: 12 Jun 1831, Stone Valley Church, Northumberland Co, PA
• _UID: 72ED013E8EBC41A7AA2D609F82887D527F2E

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)

Appolonia married Christian MICHEL Abt 1832, Northumberland Co, PA. Christian was born 2 Dec 1808, Ringgold Twp, Jefferson Co, PA; died 11 Jan 1889, Ringgold Twp, Jefferson Co, PA. [Group Sheet]
