“There was a tavern more than a hundred years ago where Abraham Hunsberger lives on the road from Keelor’s Church to Perkiomenville. It was kept by a man named Hevener—Hunsberger’s was first owned by John or (Hans) George Hevener, afterwards by his son, John. Abraham Hunsberger bought it in 1799. The burial place (of the Heveners) is on Henry H. Johnson’s land; formerly it was part of Hevener’s farm. Hoff’s wife was a granddaughter of Hans George Hevener. Hoff was buried there; he was killed by an explosion in a powder mill.” IG. S. Nyce, 1884. Dotterer Papers, Vol. IV, p 53.]
