    STOVER’S OF SCRUBGRASS AND ROCKLAND TWP.
    Mathias STOVER and family came to Venango Co. in early 1800's from Huntingdon Co. Mathias was living in Washington Co., Maryland in the 1790 Census. It is believe he moved there from the Lancaster Co. area. His original name was Stauffer. He married Christina SPRINGER on Dec. 20, 1768 as recorded in the Seltenreich Reformed Congregation , Lancaster Co., PA (Thanks to Christine Forker for that info.). Mathias and his family seemed to have moved with the JONES and DAVIDSON family from Huntingdon Co. to Scrubgrass. Mathias and Thomas Jones have a deed dated April 19, 1815 where they purchased land from William Sloan. John Stover, a son of Mathias, purchased land in Rockland twp.
    Mathias and Christine had children:
    1. Peter E. b. June 30, 1787 and died Aug. 22, 1856. He married Elizabeth
    2. John Philip b. Oct. 3, 1778 and died June 15, 1859 in Centerville, He married Francis BLACK.
    3. Catherine Stover b. Feb. 25, 1771 and died Dec. 5, 1851. She married Thomas JONES(bought land with her father)
    4. Samuel Stover b. abt 1790 and married Mary TRUBY. He died before 1865 when a Petition for
    guardianship of Sarah Ann, minor, was granted to Samuel Stover.
    5. Mathias, Jr., his tombstone says 1805, but I believe he was born before this probably around 1790 or after. His mother and father would have been pretty old in 1805 to have him. He died Feb. 21, 1883. He was to have been born in Maryland. He married Catherine Jane CURTIS.
    6. Mary
    7. Nancy
    8. Henry. There is a Henry that lived in Crawford Co., Oh who was referred to as Uncle Henry by Jacob Stover as dying about 1843. Not much is know about him. He had a daughter Catherine who married Charles STEWART.
