Marriage contract recorded by Jean Demierre, notary at Moudon, 20 apr 1561, is scarcely legible in the surviving minutaire, but it identifies the bride as Catherine Dutey daughter of the late Antoine, sister of Claude, and cousin of Louis Dutey.
[14505] Date of contract, Jean Demierre, notary at Moudon.

He may have been the Johannes Balyus Friburgensis, also noted as Jo. Ballivus Paterniacensis, who enrolled at the University of Basel 1556/57.
Chatelain of Combremont-le-Grand, 1588. (Or was it his father who held those offices?)

Transcript of death record at Moudon: "Madame la Conseillere Judith Melet n�e Dombald de Moudon est morte le 7e fevrier 1740 et ensevelie le lendemain." Is this the person called Judith Ballif in the later baptisms in this family? Or is Judith Ballif the same person as Anne Judith Dombald?
;;;;;
In the year 1780 I had a daughter born into the world on May 27, and to whom the name Anna Cattrina was given..... Citation from a translation of the entries in German, taken from Christian Balsley's Rev. War service record. Date does not agree with one published in Ella Milligan's "Nickey Family".
;;;;;
[9545] In 1929 the DAR, Columbia City Chapter, added a bronze tablet to the gravestone of Anna Balsley Nickey, honoring her as a daughter of a Rev. War soldier. Unfortunately, the wrong Christian Balsley was named in the Nickey genealogy, 1940. Many years later, Earl D. Balsley did further research on the Balsley family, correcting Ella Milligan's error. Photo of gravestone provided by Helen M. Thompson.
Buried Concord Cemetery, Whitley Co., IN.

Christian and Elizabeth Balsley are buried on Skyline Drive near Humpback Rocks. The government is going to place a marker at their grave site....
[9631] Found old reference from Eileen Balsley of Cumberland, MD, dtd 1984: They were buried along the Skyline Drive in what is now Shenendoah National Park in VA. Government intend to erect a monument.
After all these years, I wonder if they did so! We were in the park in the early 1980's.....a beautiful site, especially in the fall when the leaves were turning.
Balsley family reunion. Speaker will be Earl Balsley, who will dedicate a memorial marker placed in the cemetery in memory of Christian and Elizabeth Balsley. They were buried on the old Jackson Farm but the markers were removed when the farm was sold. A photo of the new marker enclosed.
Name written Ann or Anna Elizabeth Coiner/Koiner.

[9751] There seems to be a difference of opinion as to when Peter Baltzli arrived in America. Earl Balsley in his Christian Balsley Rev. War Soldier, has Peter arriving in 1752 on the ship "President". He may have taken this date from an earlier work on the family, Genealogy of the Baltzley-Balsley-Polsley, published in 1939 by Katherine A. Polsley Bryan.
More recent lists of Mennonite emigrants have come to light and the names of both Peter and Christian Baltzli appear on the manifest for the ship "Phoenix", arriving from the Jura on 1 Oct.1754.
Is it possible that the 1754 emigrant was a different Peter Baltzli? His wife is identified as Elizabeth Gerber, where we previously had the name of his wife as Elizabeth Gessler.
Ella Milligan in her work on the Nickey family identified the wrong Christian Balsley as the father of Anna Catherine and many people joined the DAR on the strength of his service. It is entirely possible that Peter Baltzli was the father of that Christian. It was Earl Balsley's work in the 1980's that brought the second Christian Balsley's service record to light.
For the time being, I am leaving Peter Baltzli in my database, but with a big question mark. Further research will be necessary to determine just who was the father of Christian.
According to this author, the Peter Baltzli who came to American on the ship "Phoenix" in 1754, was baptized 29 Sep. 1715 in Langnau, Switzerland. His son, Peter, was born in 1750 and would have been too young to be the Peter who signed his name to the list promising allegiance to the King of England. Only male passengers 16 and older signed their names.
Died in October 1766. His will, written in German, was translated to English and is on file at the Reading Court House, Berks Co., PA. Elizabeth Gessler named as wife. After Peter's death, she moved her family to Reading in 1769. No date or location of her death.
This article shows a marriage of an Elizabeth Gerber to Peter Baltzli. We had her surname as Gessler. Need to pursue this Baltzli family, originally from Langnau, Switzerland.
Author identifies the parents of Christian Balsley as Peter and Elizabeth (Gessler) Baltzli who resided in Brecknock Twp., Berks Co, PA.
