Subject: [ROOTS-L] BEAR, Barbara  (b. Abt 1716-Cadoria Creek, York Co., PA)

Trying to contact BILL LOUCKS who posted a message to
Rootsweb.com Message Board on 4 Mar. 2002.  His email
address no longer functions.
Hi Bill Loucks,

      I am related to the BEAR family from York Co.,
PA.  I saw on the message board of Rootsweb.com dated
4 Mar. 2002 the family tree –headed by Abraham Blaser
(Blosser).  I read with great interest the information
about Barbara Bear  (b. Abt 1716-Cadoria Creek, York
Co., PA).  Did you mean to type CODORUS Creek?  I
don't know where CADORIA Creek is?  Please let me know
about this as I want to follow up on this family.

      Up until recently I had been following the Union
Township, Adams Co. Bear/Bair families.  At the Adams
Co. Courthouse in Gettysburg, PA I found the following
reference in 
Register of Deaths Vol I. 1893---1900 page 280:

          " . . . Date of Record Dec. 17, 1897 Name of
Deceased Weisensale Susanna White Female Age[:] 79
yrs. Married Place of Birth[:] York Co. Pa.
Occupation[:] Housekeeper Date of Death[:] Aug. 23,
1897 Place of Death[:] Conewago twp. Cause of Death[:]
Old age Duration of last Illness[:] 2 wks. Place of
Interment[:] Bords Church [Bart's] Date Aug. 25, 1897
Name of Father [missing] Name of Mother [missing] . .
." 

       Susanna (Bear) Weisensale is my paternal great-
great-great grandmother.  This is the first concrete
piece of evidence that she's from York Co.

       Do you know Barbara BEAR's parents? any more of
her siblings?  Where did they live in York Co.?  in
the village of BAIR?  

       Susanna was illiterate.  One of her children's
middle initials was "I."  I believe that might stand
for Isaac.

       Her baptism in 1818 is recorded in  St. Matthew
Lutheran Church, Hanover, PA.  I made a photocopy of
it.  Her parents are listed as Georg Baer and Cathar. 
>From a wedding record I found, I believe that she is
Catharina Lohr. There is a Lohr's Methodist Church in
Hanover that was undergoing construction last yr.;
however, I think it is complete now.  Maybe her family
are connected to this church?

       Thank you for any information that you would
like to share with me!  I look forward to hearing from
you.

Sincerely,
  Laura:)
