According to the book sold by the Lancaster County Mennonite Historical Society, "The Pennsylvania LeFevres"
my ancestor, Daniel Lefver, son of the emigarants Isaac Lefevre & wife Ferree, supposedly married about 1736 a Mary Catherine Kerr. I have long suspected that is an error, penmanship, spelling, pronunciation that got to the compliers of the book.
Recently a Lancaster researcher said that it is more probable that the wife of Daniel was a Herr, as they lived nearby while most Kerr lived in Paxton Twp. area.
She sent an article by the Pardise Township Citicens Committee, Inc., Lancasater, PA "PARADISE. OUR HERITAGE, OUR HOME" 1997. Besides some male Herrs, it has on page 23 of section Early European Settlers Daniel Lefever as married to Mary Catherine Herr, and Daniel's brother Abraham whose son married a Herr.
Can anyone shed light on who Daniel Lefever born 1713 in Pequa married about 1736? No marriage record has been found by me to verify the article titled Paradise. Look for various spellings of Lefevre, Lefeber, etc.
