General Notes: Husband - Rev. Peter Beaver


Another source states that he was born in Lebanon County, Pennsylvania. Franklin County was not formed until 1784.

He was ordained in 1809 at Elkton, Maryland, by Bishop Asbury, of the Methodist Episcopal church. For many years he preached in both the English and German languages, so that all in his congregation might be equally benefited. He was also engaged in mercantile pursuits in Pfoutz valley, Pennsylvania.

Another source states that he died at New Berlin, Pennsylvania.
