Biography

Dorothy was born about 1757 and died about 1824. (Source needed.)

Fretz identifies Dorothy Stauffer as the daughter of John Ulrich Stauffer and his wife Catharine. She married Mathias Moyer (son of Christian Moyer of Upper Providence, Montgomery). Writing in 1899, Fretz notes that he could identify no descendants of the couple,[1] which corroborates Davis's suggestion that the family left the area.[2]

Davis (without providing evidence) identifies the children of Matthias and Dorothy as :

  1. John b.1777[2]
  2. Eve b.1779[2]
  3. Jonah b.1781[2]
  4. Catherine b.1783[2]
  5. Elizabeth b.1786[2]
  6. Mary b.1789[2]
  7. David b.1792[2]
  8. Samuel b.1795 and d.1797[2]
  9. Samuel b.1798[2]

Notes

Evidence needed to support the use of the middle name Clemens. It is not mentioned by Fretz.
