General Notes: Husband - John Highberger

Regarding his children: The 1850 Census of Clarion Co., PA, lists Jacob and Jonas High-berger living in the home of John & Elizabeth Amsler in Washington Twp.; Andrew was living in the home of Philip & Catherine (Keefer) Upp in Beaver Twp.; and Eliphas in the home of Nicholas & Clarissa Berlin in Elk Twp. (Perhaps his wife Elizabeth had died, and the children were in the homes of relatives/friends?)
