My great grandfather was born in 1852 . His parents were Jacob and Maria Stouffer. I believe they lived in the Funkstown area , which is between Beaver Creek and Smoketown. His name was Albertus Stouffer.He had brothers and sisters named Elenora ,Jeremiah , Arthur, Araetta, Freeland, and sister Leslie. He Married Martha Danner , and had children named Harvey , Sadie B,Grace V.,Mollie, Hubert,Harrison , Bessie , Ferdinand, Reichard, Nellie. My grandmother was Sadie. For some reason , after 1900 they changed their name to Stover, with the exception of Grace who always used Stouffer. I also saw Albertus as Stouffer or Stover at different times. Albertus died 17 Sept. 1926. I believe he is buried in Boonsboro Cemetary , but haven't been able to prove. Albertus has at least one grad daughter still living. She is Ferdinands daughter. Her name is Pansy Stover. She is 92 years old and is in a nursing home in Hagerstown Md.
