Anna Oberholtzer

Other Events:

• Married: Bef 1729, , , Pennsylvania, USA; Wife Anna's last name has some doubt. Mathias' will mentioned his brother-in-law, Christian Zimmerman, suggesting Mathias married a Zimmerman. Ref: Stauffer Stouffer Stover Family of Penn. I believe the evidence of Anna Oberholtzer to be more compelling.

Notes:

Find a Grave claims a birth of 1711, however this is not likely if your first child Barbara was born in 1710, unless Deborah was Jacob's SECOND wife..
