Hannah Rohrer Kintner was the daughter of Frederick Rohrer (1742-1823) and his wife Catharine Elizabeth Deemer Rohrer (1745/46-1829); the Rohrers both died in Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and were buried in the old German Burying Ground on Main Street. Hannah was born in Maryland between 1775--1780 and died in Indiana after the 1860 Census was taken. She was the wife of Peter Kintner, who died between 1820 and 1830 in Harrison County, Indiana. Kintner’s name is spelled “Guntner” in the baptismal records of the Lutheran Church in Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where three of their children are noted with godparents Frederick and Catharina Rohrer. A Peter Kintner appears in the 1810 census records of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania; and in the 1820 (Corydon, Harrison Co.) and 1830 (Harrison Co.) census records of Indiana. The 1823 will (Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania) of Frederick Rohrer, his father-in-law, identifies this Peter Kintner: “I devise to my son in law John Fleeger, Esqr., of the Borough of Greensburg and Peter Kintner of Corydon, State of Indiana, and their heirs forever as tenants in common all my lands and real estate in the State of Kentucky and Tennessee, particularly the lands I purchased from the late Colonel John Montgomery, situate in one or both of said states.”
Hannah Rohrer Kintner appears in the following census records in Harrison County: 1840 (Harrison Twp., Harrison Co.); 1850 (Corydon; age 75; born in Maryland); and 1860 (living with her son, Peter M. Kintner in Corydon; age 80; born in Maryland). The census records for Harrison County, Indiana, show many listings for the Kintner family.
If you are a descendant of this family, please be in touch. With various cousins, I am working on an accurate Rohrer genealogy. I am a descendant of Catharina Truby Rohrer Marshall, the sister-in-law of Hannah Rohrer Kintner. Catharina was married to Hannah’s brother Frederick Rohrer, Junior (1766/67-1794).
