I have some info on David Hoffert, but I have a different wife's name.I have David Hoffert married to Maria Hoster (from family bible).The other day someone gave me inform from Maria Hoster's father's will.His name was Joseph Hoster.This is what it says for Maria and David:
> 4. Maria, a daughter deceased in 1880, wife of David Hoffert and mother
> of five children:
> -Hannah, wife of Jonathan Shaeffer
> -Lydia, wife of John Curry
> -Louisa, wife of John Huyette
> -Cyrus Hoffert
> -Albert Hoffert, minor whose guardian is Benj. Steffey
The distribution of the money Joseph Hoster's family received was in 1890 after his wife Rebecca died.He died in 1860.
My husband is descendant of Louisa and John Huyette.Maybe David remarried or possibly Maria's middle name was Hannah.Where did you find the name Hannah for his wife? I do not know who his parents are but I did find a David Hoffert 9 living with Isaac Hoffert in 1850 Brecknock Twp and a David Hoffert 20 living with Jacob Hoffert in 1850 Cumru Twp. I have that Maria Hoster was born about 1829 so I would guess that the David living with Jacob would be the best bet for her husband. Nothing concrete on that yet.
If you would like to share some more info email me at home by clicking on my name in the message.
