1 Affidavit of William H. Mitchell Family: F061
 
2 Living in same household in Connellsville, Fayette Co., PA in 1910. Their relationship is unclear. Although both are listed as M1 (married), I do not think this means to each other. Susan is listed as having 4 children, 3 of which are living. The only other member of the household is 7 year old Howard Recter who is listed as adopted son.  Family: F034

20 Leah at the time of her marriage was 26, five years older than her new husband. By the time her last child, Charlotte, was born Leah was 44 years old. Little Charlotte died soon after her birth. I believe, based on the age of Leah, the death of the infant and the fact that Harrison was remarried by 1869, that Leah died of complications of childbirth. I suspect she died following the birth in 1867 or at least early in 1868. As to the place of death, I think a search should be done in Hardy Co., WV or Allegany Co., MD. UPDATE: Recently located information indicates that another child was born to Leah & Harrison after Charlotte. Fanny was born in 1868 in Allegany Co., MD and died after 1870 but prior to 1880. With this new information, I strongly suspect Leah died and is buried in Allegheny Co, MD

32 Both Alverda and John had children from previous marriages. The only child they had together was John. Roger was adopted by his grandmother, Alverda Sanner Santmyer. It is not clear whether Roger was the son of one of Alverda's children to her first marriage or the son of one of John's children to his first marriage. Ref.: Sandy Santmyer (former wife of Roger).  Alverda KROPP
 
33 Probably the same Johannes Lauman who sponsored birth of Johannes Zentmeyer, and probably a brother of Barbara Lauman, Christopher's wife. Johannes LAUMAN
 
34 Barbara was a widow when she married John H. Santmyers. Andrews was her married name, not her maiden name. Barbara (Santmyers) LNU
 
35 Also buried in these Santmyer lots is a Miles Anderson. This information was supplied in July 2001 by Lester C. Martin, the caretaker, from Cemetery Records. I'm not certain if this Miles Anderson may be a son, thus Miles Anderson Santmyer or possibly the father or brother of Bess. He could even be a second husband of Bess. Bess (Santmyer) LNU
 
36 A thorough search of the 1930 census found no trace of Ella, Louise or James. It's quite possible that some tragedy took the lives of these three sometime soon after the 1920 Census was taken in January. Earl's marriage to his 2nd wife was Jun 1921. Ella and Earl's son Melvin is found in the 1930 Census listed as an institutionalized patient at Rosewood Center. Ella (Santmyers) LNU

41 In the 1870 Census listed with Samuel and older children is Lucinda age 10 and Bettie age 3. His wife Elizabeth died in Mar 1860 and naturally is not listed in the 1860 Census which was taken in August. If Elizabeth was the mother of Lucinda her birth likely was around the same time as Elizabeth's death. Therefore she should have been listed in the 1860 Census. Perhaps Lucinda, being cared for by a relative, wasn't living in the household at the time of the census. That too seems strange since the two older daughters could have taken over the care of the infant. The mother of Bettie is a mystery. By 1880 Samuel is remarried to a 48 year old named Mary. None of the children are living with him, not even Bettie who would be about 13 years old. Samuel REPP
 
42 Headstone Inscription:

(East Face) Here lies with God Salome Zentmeyer was buried in the year 1774

(West Face) Was 61 Years Old

Salome was born 16 Mar 1712 per church records (Kirchenbücher) in Bischwiller, so she must have died before March 1774.

43 "Baddad", as he was fondly called by his grandchildren, was a kind, quiet man. He seemed to rule the house with an iron fist, though, it seemed to be done without ever saying a word. For as long as I can remember, he always had his garden. Sometimes he had to rent a plot of ground blocks from his home. It was always a special treat to be allowed to tag along to spend a morning or afternoon with him working in the garden. If I was lucky, he would dig up a kohlrabi, peel it with the penknife he always carried and slice it into bite size pieces for me to eat. This was a very special treat to me. In the late 1940's, when they lived on Schley Avenue, I remember him sitting at the table on the chair in the corner by the window listening to the Pirates baseball game on the radio. There was a big floor model radio in the living room, but I don't remember him ever listening to the ball games on it. In the early evening, he would sit in his easy chair reading the Pittsburgh Press newspaper. More often than not, he would actually be napping behind the paper. In the evenings he would usually walk to Duffy's Tavern in Crafton to drink beer and exchange stories with his cronies. Some evenings he would get together with his neighbor, Tom Creely, and they would harmonize old songs way into the night. Occasionally one or both would play the bazooka. As the years passed and he became older, much older, he only wanted to stay at home - it was even a chore to get him to go to the home of one of his children. He continued to garden up until just a few years prior to his death at age 91.

Stephen worked the coal mines of Carnegie at age 10 - his job was that of a "trapper".

Stephen & Ethel were married at the Garfield House in Homestead, PA by Rev. H. F. Williamson. The Garfield House, located at the corner of Eighth Avenue and McClure, was owned and operated by the McBroom family. They lived here in the family hotel briefly until they found more permanent lodging. Ethel's father had forbidden her to see (socialize/date) Stephen because of the vast gap in their ages. When the couple eloped, he disowned her for a few years.

1914 - 1921 Lived in Star Junction (Page house 2 months / Katey's house / Church St. in old schoolhouse).
Lived in Homestead (Vondra Plan / 20th Ave. 6 months / 20th Ave. on corner / 228 19th Street (about 1919) / 16th Ave. & Maple at the back of the store)
1921 - 1922 Lived Willock, PA (farm in Hayes Boro)
1922 - 1923 Lived Library, PA
1923 - 1931 Lived Crafton, PA (Lorraine St.) (16 Morange Rd.)
1931 - 1944 Lived Oakdale, PA (North Fayette Twp., Pinkle Hill)
1944 - 1945 Lived Ingram, PA (90 Evans Ave.)
1945 - 1955 Lived Ingram, PA (98 Schley Ave.)
1955 - 1968 Lived Ingram, PA (96 N. Duane Ave.)
1968 - death Lived Coraopolis, PA (Moon Twp., Amherst Acres Plan, 310 Smallwood Drive)

His name appears as Steven on his marriage certificate and the 1880 and 1930 census.

44 This Eliza 'Saintmyers' (per the marriage record) is presumed to be the daughter of John and Catherine for the following reasons: 1) The Census Records for both 1810 and 1820 reflect a heretofore unidentified daughter, born to them before 1810; 2) The 1860 census has Eliza born c.1818, the 1870 census has her born c.1817; the 1880 census has her born c.1806, and her headstone has her born 1811-12; and 3) Frederick County, where she married and was buried, was a stone's throw away from Browntown, in (then) Shenandoah Co., where John and Catherine long resided. Apart from the (not uncommon) multiple birth-year indications, here are no facts known to us which conflict with this conclusion, and no other families which could even remotely be considered to be her family of origin.  Eliza SAINTMYERS
