    Notes:

    Birth:
    Some records show spelling of HOCKMAN or HACKMAN. Some references list her IN ERROR as BARBARA MERCKLE HOCKMAN. Correctly named as Elizabeth Hackman in From the Rhine to the Shenandoah, Bly Vol3 p97.

    1. Ulrich (of Bedminster) Stover was born 16 Jul 1750, Bedminster, Bucks County, Pennsylvania; died 2 Nov 1811, Haycock, Bucks, Pennsylvania, USA; was buried , Bedminster, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.

    Other Events:

    • Residence: 1777, Lower Salford, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Mathias Stauffer kept an inn while he lived at his farm in Lower Salford. in 1777 when Gen. Washington's army was under retreat after the Battle of Germantown, a number other the officers lodged at the inn.
    • Residence: 1778, Lower Salford, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Mathias later sold his farm to his son, Christian. Mathias then purchased a 200 acre farm at Towamencin, on which Gen. Washington's army had encamped.
    • Possessions: 11 Jun 1796, Lower Salford, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania; Mathias and wife Anna sold their 80 acre farm in Lower Salford to their son, Christian Stover on 11 Jun 1796. Ref: Some account of Jacob Oberholtzer pg 214. I believe this was Mathias and Anna (Clemens) Stauffer, NOT the Mathias who m. Anna Oberholtzer.

    Notes:

    Use caution when reviewing historical references for Mathias Stauffer, who had a wife named Anna and a son named Christian. There are a couple of them and confusion has occurred.

    Mathias Stauffer of Lower Salford Twp, Montgomery County married Anna Clemens and had son Christian Stover of Lower Salford Twp.

    Mathias Stauffer of Earl Twp, Lancaster County married Anna Oberholtzer and had son Christian Stauffer of Earl Twp and Caernarvon Twp, Lancaster County.

    There are also references to Mathias Stauffer of Earl or Conestoga Twp, who had a wife possibly named Anna ZIMMERMAN. This was speculated from Mathias' will (6 Feb 1758), which named a brother-in-law, Christian Zimmerman. I believe this speculation is incorrect. I believe this Mathias married Anna Oberholtzer.

    Birth:
    Listed as Child #3. Ref: Stauffer Stover History 1899 pg 149+. Mathias birth of 1740 is a rough estimate based on births of siblings. No record for his birth has been found.
