Martha Bayer
I am researching the Bayers of Laysburg, Bedford Co., Pa.My great-grandmother was Martha Bayer, born Aug. 18,1860 and married to Henry Replogle Dooly.I have found a Mattie Bayer living with her grandfather and grandmother in 1870 Census--Joseph Bayer and Nancy (Shank?), but cannot find who her father might have been.Could he have been the George Michael Bayer, born in 1835 and died in Nebraska in 1910 and an ? Ayers?It is possible that they weren't married as George supposedly died single.I have read the Bayer Family History by Harry Earl Bayer (1938), but that didn't shed any light on the subject.I would appreciate any information that can help.
