Pop-up Pedigree |
Note* | She was baptized at Berg, Berg Lutheran Church on Aug. 27, 1733. Her baptism has the comment that she was "born 30 weeks too early; conceived before marriage." Witnesses to the baptism were Johannes Lentz (farmer in Thal), Hans Theobald Nunnenmacher (single son of Marcel Nunnenmacher, a farmer and innkeeper), Maria Catharina Mannlein (single daughter of Isaac Mannlein, a blacksmith and census taker) and Anna Maria Ort (single daughter of Johannes Ort, a shepherd). She was about 20 when she set sail from Rotterdam with her parents. She married shortly after her arrival to America. Her death reference is from Western Pennsylvania Genealogy, Vol. 9, Nos. 1 and 2, Jan-Apr 1993. From Russell's Firestone Genealogy (1993): Catharina Feyerstein, first child of Nicholas and Catharine (Nunnenmacher) Feyerstein, was born at Thal 23 August 1733. At Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster, Pa., on 3 June 1754, Catharina Feuerstein and Conrad Stauzenberger, both single, were married by the Rev. Joh. Siegfrid Gerock. Their first child was baptized at that church 23 February 1755, after which they had children baptized at Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church in York Town, York County Pa., 1760-1768. Catharina died between 1 June 1768 and 30 May 1770. As noted above, her widower Conrad complained 10 November 1770 that he had not yet received his share in the estate of his father-in-law Nicholas Firestone. In 1779 Conrad Stousenberg weaver was taxed for a house and lot in York Town. Conrad and his second wife, Christine, had children baptized at Christ Church in 1770 1772 1773 and 1775.
