Biography
8. NANCY HALL (9 Sept. 1799-18 March 1879) She m. Christian Bear, who died on 23 March 1868, age 72, both buried in the Bear Farm Cemetery in Section 25 Twp 4N Range 11E Milton Twp. They were listed in Milton Township in 1850. Christian was the son of John Bear who lived on the Indian-Kentuck Creek about two miles north of Brooksburg. Christian voted in Milton Township in an election held on the first Monday in August 1818. In 1827, Christian was taxed in Milton Township with 160 acres SE1/4 Sec. 25 Twp. 4N Range 11E, which he had acquired by patent. He was taxed for two horses in 1833 and also for an additional 114 acres of third-rate land in the NE 1/4 of Section 36, which he had acquired by bond. Christian and Nancy were not on the Milton church membership list. But a Sarah Ann Bear joined the 1st Saturday, October 1844. She was excluded for dancing and unchristian conduct on 4th Saturday, December 1845. Christian and Nancy joined the Manville Christian Church as members 30 and 31. The church record suggests the original 36 members joined in 1836. No other Bears were members. No marriage date has been found. His will, written 22 March 1868, names wife Nancy and mentioned children, but gives no names. The will was recorded on 1 Apr. 1868.
