To Chet Feathers
Chet,
I have been zeroing in on my GGGGGfather.You may have seen Thomas Fetters verify that he is Sam Fetter married to Catherine Katerman at Tulpehocken, PA in 1800.He believes that Sam would be PA10.I do find that Catherine is listed as being born in 1761.So she would be 39 in 1800, if this is right then Sam might be the child of Peter and Maria. Do you know what happened to this Sam.His brother is listed a Peter married to Anna Maria Oblinger in 1781.So if he is the brother of Peter, it is about the right time for my Samuel to be correct.
If Sam is the son of Peter's son, Henry, it would make better sense as his birth is about 177?.In fact, any of Peter's sons may have had children named Samuel.Thomas gives these as possible because there isn't enough known of them:
Samuel Feather (3rd child of Peter and Maria)(I think this is the one most possible- DF)
Lancaster Co, PA
Samuel Fetter (1779- ) (sixth child of Henry & Ann) Lancaster Co, PA
Samuel Feder (1786- ) (second child of Isaac & Christina) Lancaster Co, PA
Samuel Fehder (1777- ) third child of Henry & Christine) Lancaster Co, PA
Both Henrys' Sams are possible if Samuel is more likely 20 in 1800 at his wedding at Tulpehocken
Previously I had been looking for the parents of John Fetter.Thomas T. Fetters was able to tie Samuel and Catherine in Berkeley Co.WV(or VA at the time.)Do you have anything on Samuel Feather(s) in WV or VA?They have 4 children:1. John (d-1848), 2. Sarah (b 1803 or '08), 3. Susanna, 4. another daughter
Catherine and Sarah are buried in Greenhill Cemetary in Berkeley Co. VAJohn of course moved to Indiana.Susanna married a Hiram Jones.Nothing on 4th child.
