Other Details:

Sources: Most of this information is based on the research of Rick Swayne. I have not yet verified or corroborated these facts.

  1. Research by Rick Swayne. He says DAR records show last name spelled Meyers.
  2. Swayne cites records of the Augustus Evangelical Lutheran Church at Trappe, New Providence Twp., Montgomery Co., PA. He says the record appears to indicate that the ceremony did not take place in Trapp, but was only recorded there by the minister.
  3. Same church records indicate Christoph Buttbinder, her stepfather, have her away. Another family source lists the stepfather's name as Christian Bittenbinder.
  4. Children's names and birth dates appear to come from a book by Robert A Raup: "A Genealogy of Selected Northumberland County Pennsylvania Pioneer Families".
  5. The Raub Report Page 1, Page 2, Page 3
  6. Mother's last name "Kepler" does not show up in the Raub Report but is provided by another research listing decendents of Peter Raub. He does not cite any source for this and I have no corroboration.
