Note
- From "Bortz Family" From Anniversary History Of Lehigh County, Vol. II, Copyright 1914: "George Bortz went to Cumberland Valley, Bedford County, married a Miss Smith, and died there. He had no children. After his father's death, his mother, who was then 95 years old, rode in a heavy covered wagon from Lehigh to Bedford county, to visit her son and her daughter. Having remained there some time, she died at the age of 97 and was buried at French Cove, Bedford county."
