Joseph Scharf and Ann Elizabeth Kurtz lived in Selinsgrove Pa.They had 7 children.One child according to my records was Sarah 1845-1924 who married Joseph A. Lombard June 19, 1866.Theplace and the Joseph Lombard name strongly suggest your Esther and my Sarah are the same person.There were no other Scharf's in Selinsgrove at that time period that I am aware of.I believe I have pictures of this family in addition to scads of information if you are interested.
Joseph was born in Pa to John Scharf and wife Anna Katherine about 1821.John Scharf emigrated from Zeiningen switzerland in 1817 to Philadelphia and ultimately to Selinsgrove where he made and repaired clocks.John was married twice and had at least 6 children.Sarah who married Jos Lombard was from his second wife. Johns parents were Johannes Scharf and Maria Kaufmann, complete lineage to Johannes Scharf 1607 were found in the canton records of Aargau Zeiningen town a few years ago
