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

Notes:

!Marshall 0001 - This is only one of Peter's 23 children. He was married twice
but it is likely that this child was by his first wife because her name is much
like her his first wife's name. There is no information about Peter's other
children. I have Peter Binckele's memoirs.
