George Koonce (many varied spellings) was born 14 Feb 1778 d. 11 May 1856.He married Elizabeth ??? about 1795 had atleast one son Jacob Koontz, b. 12 Feb 1817 - 21 Sep 1885.He also married Susannah Black, but I don't have any information on her - whether first or second wife.George's dad was also George Koontz, b abt 1752 in PA, d after 1860 (pretty old if the info is correct).This George's dad is reported to be Devault Koontz b abt 1730 in Germany m. 1755 in PA to Margaret Susan Kern (b about 1734 in Germany).Eventually, the first George made his way to Ashe Co NC - that is where Jacob was born.Jacob married Rebecca Ray, b. 13 May 1817 d. 8 Jun 1860:their daughter, Amanda Koontz b 9 Nov 1844 d. 10 May 1921 buried Colvard Cem. Ashe Co NCmarried 2 Sept 1866 to Christian B. Burkett (one census calls him Christopher, 1870 Ashe Census).This is my line, twice - that cousin marrying thing isgood for research!Not so many things to look up!I came across this info yesterday, the only other information I have is on the Burkett side, and the descendants of Amanda and [email protected]
