LETTER WITH GENEALAOGICAL NOTES
Gale Honeyman, 470 Grove # 2, San Francisco, CA 94102

Thank you for sharing what really does appear to be the lost daughter of HENRY ELLER, II. . . . Henry Eller, II moved from Washington Co., MD circa 1807 to Alleghaney Twp., Huntington Co. (Now Blair Co.) PA and by 1815 to Randolph Twp., Montgomery Co., OH.

(Ed. The "lost daughter" of Henry Eller, II to which Gale refers was Christina Eller who m. Henry Shoup. See information from Brian Christensen, this issue p.

Madeline Fletcher of Ft. Collins, CO. shared some research material collected by her late mother, Chloe Louisa (Welker) Evans, in the 1950's.

"Peter Grabill, Sr. will dated 11 Mar 1811 and proved 2 Nov. 1812 Frederick Co., MD. By witnesses Johannes Wampler and Martin Garber. Daughter Saree was to care for her unnamed mother; children Peter, john, Elizabeth, Franey, Joseph. WILL LIBER R.B.I., FOLIO 327.

"Final account by Executora John Grabel filed 26 Apr. 1813. Fanny w/o Henry Eller, Joseph Grabel, Elizabeth w/o Joseph Eller, Peter & John Grabel.

"Note: The widow nor Saree are here named. Administrators Accounts for Estates 1812-7, pp. 192-3.

"I feel that a deed issued by Peter the same day his will was written provides the name of his wife as Mary. A 40 acre tract was being sold to John Grabill. DEED LIBER W.R. 39, FOLIO 561. Born in 1858, John died in 1844 and was buried on his farm along the Molasses Rd. near Johnsville, MD.

"Peter, Jr. wed Christina Wampler and moved to Ashe Co., N.C. Among their children, Barbara and Michael respectively wed David and Polly, children of Michael & Catheriaane (Eller) Stoker)"

Research of Clarice Eller Stanley has identified Peter Eller, son of emigrant Henry..... (Eds. this portion of letter substantially same as that fromn Clarice Stanley in this issue, P. 187.)

I have discovered another connection in Ohio. Peter Lehman and Catherine Eller were wed (27 May 1788, per the I.G.S. Morman record in Middletown Evangelical Lutheran Church and second entry gives same date and Frederick Evangelical Lutheran Church; However published books on both churches fail to list this marriage.) They moved from Frederick Co., MD to Maontgomery Co., OH ca 1805 where they bought the east part of section 27 in Washington Twp. (Now part of
- 2 0 8 -

Kettering) and the east half of inlot 43 in Dayton. John Lehman was appointed Administrator in 1818/l/ and a petition for partition was settled in July Court 1821/2/

Probate Court, Docket C-1, p. 225
Common Pleas Court, Book E.-1, p. 598.

Listed in order of petition which apparently is not the order of birth:

l.Betsy ca 1790 m. William Cox ca 1791, 1850 living in Dayton, OH.
2.Susannah ca 1787 m. 8 Dec. 1808 Mont. Co., OH, Samuel Bucher (petition & marriage license) Boogher (correct spelling) ca 1783; 1850 living in Dayton, OH.
3.Catherine, 24 Aug 1786- 31 Jan 1837 Dayton, OH, m. 18 Jul 1816 Mont. Co., OH Jonathan Stutzman ca 1786- 29 Apr. 1870 Dayton, s/o David Sr. & 2nd Ann (Nesbitt); Jacob Stutzman 1775) his children and grandchildren, 1682, John Hale Stutzman, p. 73.
4.Margaret "Peggy" ca 1793-25 Jan. 1867 aged 73 Dayton OH, m. 15 Aug. 1816 Mont. Co., OH, Daniel Stutzman ca 1790- 5 Sep. 1833 Cayton of cholera, brother of Jonathan; ibid. P. 80.
5.Polly m. 20 Apr. 1820 Mont. Co., OH, Conrad Dodran.
6.John
7.David
8.Jacob (? m. 2 Dec. 1824 Mont. Co., OH, Lydia Knight)
9.Peter (? m. 2 Dec. 1824 Mont. Co., OH, Mary Carroll)

The last five were not in Montgomery Co., OH 1850 census. No license was issued in Frederick Co., MD for Peter and Catherine's marriage. I am sure the Morman record is in error. Note the birth date of dau. Catherine.

Finally, the article from Soviet Life quoting HILLER ELLER and showing his photograph, in Estonia and a communist party leader is enclosed. In appearance he looks to be a bright and happy man.

(Ed. A part of this article appears on the following page. Efforts to contact Hiller Eller in progress.)

P.S. Jacob Eller Sr. ca.1764-8 May 1831 aged 67 near Burkittsville, MD, s/o immigrant Henry Sr. had just one wife, Eva Margaretha "Margaret" Williard (27 Aug. 1775- post 1820 & pre 1830), d/o Johann Elias & Rosina (Gump). They wed 14 Oct. 1792 in Frederick Evangelical Lutheran Church.
