Bill, I've started working again on my Poyer family and have found some info that you may or may not have. I have the grantee/Grantor index for Northumberland Co. and have obtained a deed and ordered some others. I'm trying to find proof that Elizabeth Poyer that married Jacob Swick is the daughter of Joseph Poyer & Margaret Rifenburger. Do you have such proof? I'm trying to find someone to copy the Bible records for Margaret Rifenburger's father Peter that served in the Amer. Rev. These records are at the DAR library in DC.

Hoping this reaches you since I haven't replied since 2001.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Jo Ann

I just received a deed dated 6 Aug 1860 and having trouble understanding it, but it states Between Abiather Poyer and Mary his wife, Henry Haupt and John Gordy (executors of the Estate of Richard Poyer deceased Mary Wilkinson (late Mary Poyer Jacob Swick intermarried with Elizabeth Poyer John Wallis intermarried with Rebecca Poyer Alexander Moore and Mary his wife and Aaron Campbell heirs of Phebee Campbell (late Phebe Poyer) all heirs at law of Joseph Poyer late of Rush Twp., Northumberland Co. and commonwealth of PA deceased. In the deed is proof that your Rebecca was married to John Wallis. Does anyone have this deed and if so could explain it. I'm trying to decipher if the children inheriting belong to Richard or Abiather.

Would it be possible for you to copy this deed and send it to me at deebug@comcast.net.
It may be easier to decipher with the full copy. How wonderful that you have obtained this deed!
Thanks, Dolores Poyer Lynch
