    • Reference Number: 98

    Notes:

    !Marshall 0001 - The date of his death is listed as 1833. The family records
    say that he was 55 at his death. That can't be correct because then he would
    Have been born the same year as his brother, Ruben. According to Creasy's
    Manuscript (page 2), John (4) is buried in "Taylor Grave Yard" just outside of Mount Airy, North Carolina. However, I have a letter from Gil Robertson, who lived in Mount Airy, that states he was buried with his wife in Salem Methodist Church Cemetery in Mt Airy. Friedburg, where he was born, is near Winston Salem, North Carolina.

    Obviously one of them is wrong. I need to verify that.

    wolfersberger, Johannes - Memorial - In the unnumbered documents folder - This is a picture of the memorial stone dedicated to JOHANNES WOLFERSBERGER and ANNA MARGARETHA ENSMINGER WOLFERSBERGER. It is located in the Lutheran Cemetery, Schaefferstown, Pennsylvania, Memorial Day 27 May 1996. The stone has a list of their children on it which does not agree completely with the other documentation I have about this family. I made some modifications to my data based on what is on the memorial stone. - On the stone his birthdate reads 1730 rather than 1724. - DWM - 5/12/2004
