[165] ABRAHAM HEYDRICK [E 165], b 1719; d Oct. 16, 1767; m CATHARINE WEBER. No issue. Abraham Heydrick is buried in the Towamencin Schwenkfelder Cemetery.

In the first Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelders it is stated that Abraham Heydrick was unmarried, but court records disprove this. It seems that Abraham Heydrick died intestate and left a widow and next of kin in Germany. [Vid. Norristown Court Records, D. B. 17: 512—Transfer of property from Joseph Lukens to Andrew Krieble, May 27, 1772.] "Whereas Caspar Wistar to George Heydrick, Mar. 6, 1735, * * * *106 acres 57 perches * * " descended to brother, George Heydrick, only

surviving heir * * * Mar. 6, 1765."             George Heydrick made a will and left a dower to his widow and devised the remainder to his nephew, Abraham Heydrick. The latter died intestate and without issue; he left a widow and next of kin in Germany. The widow, Catharine, and her own brother, Jacob Weber, were appointed administrators. The widow and heirs gave a release. The widow later married Jacob Lukens. An old deed recites that Conrad Weber was the heir of Catharine Heydrick Lukens.

Abraham Heydrick was the nephew of George [E 61] and Caspar Heydrick [E 51]. Tradition states that he was a tailor by trade and died from injuries received by falling from a cart. He was the son of Abraham who died before the migration. He lived on a farm now known as the "Troxel Farm" near Kulpsville, Pa. (1920.)

" * * * * On the date hereof before us appeared Hans Christopher Beer, the only surviving son and heir of Mel­chior Beer, Melchior Grow, Hans Christopher Groh, Abraham Groh, David Groh, Regina Geissler, Anna Maria Fritsch, and Rosina Geissler (which three last mentioned persons at the doing of this act were assisted by their respec­tive Husbands and Curators). They all being the children and heirs of the late Anna Groh in her wedlock with George Groh begotten. Maria Meschter assisted by her husband Christopher Meschter, John Christopher Shubart, Susanna Renner, assisted by her Husband, Jeremiah Renner and Regina Shubart, the three only surviving children and heirs of Susanna in her wedlock with George Shubart begotten, Christopher Boerner, the only surviving son of Barbara Bo erner in her wedlock with George Boerner begotten and Gotfried Boerner and Rosina Shultz assisted by her husband Hans George Shultz, the only surviving children and heirs of the late Abraham Boerner, deceased, who was the other son of the said Barbara Boerner. All the said appearers living here at Armenruh and in the Neighborhood thereof, some of them being personally well known to us the said Bailiff and Justitiarie and some of them were made known to us by persons worth of Credit and the said appearers declared that their beloved Cousin Anna Catharine Heydrich, Widow, by her letter dated at Towamensing in the county of Philadelphia in Pennsylvania the Tenth of March 1768, had informed them that her dear husband Abraham Heydrich Cousin of these appearers had on the Sixteenth of October 1767 died intestate and without issue so that since his two own brothers. Caspar Heydrich and George Heydrich, in whose company he about thirty-two years ago from Silesia emigrated into Pennsylvania had before him died there without issue.

Now the goods and effects of her said Husband were by the laws of Pennsylvania to be divided between herself and the next of Kin to the deceased. And further that her said deceased husband besides these movable goods had left two plantations the one of about fifty acres in Towamensing aforesaid and the other of about one hundred acres the next adjoining District of Lower Salford and that she the aforesaid Anna Catharine Heydrich Widow had caused to be offered to them all the said Appearers the sum of eight hundred Ryks Dollars currency of Leipsic as a consideration or price to be given to them for an absolute transfer of their respective Right and Inheritance of and to the effects of her deceased Husband and more especially of the two plantations so never the less that they the said Appearers at the same time should by their respective Church Registries, and otherwise as well as conveniently could be done, prove before the Magestrates, here that they are the only and next Relations of her deceased Husband Abraham Heydrich and therefore have a Right to make and confirm such a Transfer of Property.

And Whereas for the purpose aforesaid the Appearers have produced unto the Court a tree of Consanguinity an extract of the Church Registry of Harpersdorf heretofore affixed, which being Certified by the Reverend Mr. Weissig Pastor who is very well known unto us proveth to our Satisfaction That they the said Appearers are to the aforesaid Abraham Heydrich in Pennsylvania, deceased, the next of Kindred living and we have not had any sample to admit of their said Legitimation as true and consistent with Law.

REWARD FOR A RUNAWAY REDEMPTIONER
(Translation)

Andrew Beyer of Methacton in Worcester Township in Philadelphia County announced that during the night of May 7 a German servant named John Becker ran away. He is or short and thick stature; about 18 years of age, 5 ft. 5 in. tall; has a fresh brownish face, brown hair; speaks good English; and when he departed he wore a good felt hat, a blue cloth "camisol" with metal buttons, a brown doublet with brass buttons, a finely woven shirt, a yellow (vest), a silken tie, good goat-skin breeches with metallic buttons, blue woolen stockings, good calf-skin shoes with brass buckles. He also broke two locks off a chest belonging to a single person named Jacob Rebert, opened the drawers, and took with him 22 dollars and 22 pence. He also took with him Jacob Rebert's indenture, with which he could likely be called by a false name. This said indenture was made before Mr. Plumstead of Philadelphia, Sept. 16, 1751, signifying he has seven years to serve, who would be free in 2 M years.

Whoever apprehends and arrests the said servant so that his master may get him again, or whoever brings him to prison, shall be rewarded with 5 pounds, besides reasonable costs, from me.

GENEALOGICAL RECORD OF THE SCHWENKFELDER FAMILIES     1.317

DAVID 13EYER

I.

There is a great deal of contention concerning David Beyer, the son of Andrew Beyer and Philipina Weyand. According to the tradition in the family of Dr. J. Monroe Beyer of Bustleton, Pa. [184-398], David Beyer, the son of Andrew and Philipina (Weyand) Beyer, while still a young man, became involved financially and borrowed five hundred dollars from his brother Jacob and two hundred dollars from his brother Abraham ; then suddenly one night he disappeared, and the family was never able to learn of his whereabouts. He was a blacksmith by trade, and it is supposed that he followed this occupation in his new place of abode. His mother, Philipina, who lived to be a hundred years old, was said to lament the fate of her son, David, on stormy and snowy nights, and she would say in German, "Ich wunder wo der arme Kerl ist"—(I wonder where the poor boy is).

This tradition exists from the statements made by Dr. Beyer's father, Samuel Beyer [184-163], who lived to be ninety-eight years of age and who recalled seeing Philipina Weyand Beyer. During the latter part of his life, Samuel Beyer made his home with his son, Dr. J. Monroe Beyer, who recorded these statements. This Samuel Beyer retained his faculties beyond his ninety-third year and was a storehouse of information and history, as he was possessed of a good memory and had lived through many exper­iences. For more than forty years he was a drover and his dealings took him to various parts of the country. He stated that on one occasion when he was in Gettysburg. Pa., buying cattle, he met a man by the name of Beyer who claimed relationship with Andrew and Daniel Beyer of Lancaster Co., and with David Beyer who had settled in that region (Adams Co.) many years ago. It was stated that this David Beyer by cheap purchasing had gradually accumulated a large amount of property, owning at one time seven hundred acres of land; that towns had grown up on land once owned by him; that he became wealthy, and was worth at that time, $300,000.00. It was thought that this David Beyer was the blacksmith who had disappeared.

However, an investigation of court records in York and Adams Counties establishes the following conclusions:

A David Byers of Hamiltonban Twp., Adams Co., Pa., made a will on Aug. 5, 1828, and this will was probated May 21, 1831. His tombstone gives the date of death as May 11, 1831, and his age as 76 yr., 2 mo., and 23 days; thus he must have been born in 1755.

It was also ascertained that this David Byers was the son of Samuel Byers of Lancaster Co. A granddaughter of this David Byers, Mrs. Sarah Roth who lives at Mummasburg, Pa., was interviewed. She had never heard of the Schwenkfelders nor of any relationship existing between the Byers family with which she was connected and the Schwenkfelder branch.

No other person by the name of "Beyer" or "Boyer" is listed in the indexes of the records in Adams and York Counties with a history to fit the tradition stated above.

The tradition respecting the relationship in Lancaster Co. as related by Samuel Beyer is accounted for by the fact that Samuel Byers, the father of David Byers of Adams Co., came from Lancaster Co. The name of "Beyer" or "Byers" has been a familiar one in York Co. since 1765.

II.

That there was another David Beyer practically contemporaneous with David, the son of Andrew Beyer, is quite evident, but there seems to be confusion among genealogists in properly placing this David Beyer.

Dr. Charles Boyer in his book "American Boyers," p. 184, has the following: "David Beyer, son of Andrew Beyer and Philipina Weyand, was born Sept. 7, 1763. Lay preacher. Fine man. He came from Valley Forge to Sinking Valley, Pa. Married, Nov. 5, 1785, Sarah Crum. (See Rebecca Westbrook's letter.) Children: John, William, Mary, George, David, Sarah, Elizabeth, Susan, Doctor Samuel, Rebecca. Abram and Aaron."

Also Mr. J. Simpson Africa in "The History of Blair County," Pa., p. 44, makes the following statement: "David Beyer, of whose ancestors but little is known save the fact that they came from Germany, was born near Frederick Town, Md., Sept. 7, 1763. The death of his parents when quite small threw him upon his own resources for a livelihood * * * * *. He married Miss Sarah Crum and for a few years lived near Baltimore * * * *. He moved with his family to the Sinking Valley about 1797. He raised a family of thirteen children, and died Dec. 1, 1841."

This second David Beyer who married Sarah Crum had twelve children as follows:

John, b Nov. 7, 1786; d Sept. 29, 1836; m Esther Pontius.

William, b Aug. 1, 1790.

Dr. Charles C. Boyer under date of June 14, 1920, wrote the Editor as follows: "I am as certain as human records can make matters that David Beyer (who married Sarah Crum) was a son of Andrew Beyer and Philipina Weyand."

He draws his conclusion from the correspondence that he carried on and the investigations that he made. The Editor has been in correspondence with various other members of the Beyer family descended from this David Beyer and Sarah Crum line, who also think their ancestor was the son of Andrew Beyer and Philipina Weyand. This conclusion, apparently, is based largely on the records found in a Bible which was in the hands of Mrs. Rebecca Westbrook of Huntingdon, Pa., for many years. This book is now (1921) in the possession of Prof. Thomas P. Beyer of Hamlin University, St. Paul, Minn., a nephew of Rebecca Westbrook. Under date of Apr. 10, 1922, Prof. Beyer writes as follows:

"(1) There is nothing whatever in the record regarding David Beyer's parentage or ancestry. Sarah Crum's parents are cited, but not his.

" (2) The extract from `The History of Blair County' by J. Simpson Africa is in exact accordance as to dates of birth and death, and the number of his children. I have no doubt the author got his information from this source.

"(3) There is no evidence in this Bible that it was the property of David Beyer or his wife, Sarah Crum, but my aunt, Mrs. Rebecca Westbrook, of Huntingdon, Pa., told me explicitly that it was the Bible which her grandmother, Sarah Crum, read during her last years. The book was published in 1829 and as she died in 1845, I suppose there is little reason to question the accuracy of my aunt's statement."

Mrs. Ruth Beyer Storer of Pittsburgh, Pa., a descendant of David Beyer and Sarah Crum, says that she has an old record in her possession which states that the only sister of David Beyer in the state of Pa. was Christianna, who married Mathias Beamer, and had the following children: Adam, John, Samuel, Sarah, Catharine, and Solomon. This would also seem to indicate that the David Beyer who married Sarah Crum was not the son of Andrew Beyer and Philipina Weyand, as there is no daughter named Christianna found in Andrew Beyer's family. Andrew Beyer and several of his children are buried in the Methacton Mennonite Burying Ground in Fairview Village, Pa. Many of the dates in the record included in this book are taken from tombstones in that cemetery. An examination of the will of Andrew Beyer is also an indication that he had no daughter by the name of Christianna. It will be noticed that Andrew Beyer names all his living children in his will and provides for a posthumous child which was undoubtedly David, and who must have been born after his father's death, on Apr. 19, 1773.

If the David Beyer who married Sarah Crum was born in 1763, as stated by Boyer and others, there is very little doubt that there must have been two David Beyers living about the same time; therefore the many descendants of David Beyer, the preacher, are not the descendants of David Beyer, the blacksmith, who disappeared after borrowing money from his brothers. Mrs. Storer states that David Beyer, the preacher, claimed that he was an orphan and alone in the world.

Another statement needs to be recorded. Dr. William F. Beyer of Punxsutawney, Pa., claims that he belongs to the lost branch of the Beyer family, which consists of many of the descendants of Andrew Beyer who located near the Maryland line. He says he has been told that he possesses the well-marked face of the Schwenkfelder Beyers. This he demonstrated by picking out all those of Beyer blood, without making an error, at a reunion of the Jacob Beyer family near Norristown, Pa., which he attended a few years ago. Dr. Beyer says he is the son of Samuel Beyer, who was the son of John, the son of David Beyer who married Sarah Crum, and that this David Beyer was the son of Andrew, the son of Abraham Beyer who came to Pennsylvania in 1736. He also states that his great-grandfather, David Beyer, lived on the edge of Maryland for a time and later lived south of Valley Forge, Pa.; he located in Sinking Valley in 1787, married Sarah Crum in 1785, and died in 1841.

"Henry Boyer Brumbaugh was born Apr. 1, 1836, in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa. He spent his boyhood days on the farm along the Raystown Branch of the Juniata River; attended the public schools and Williamsburg Academy, and the Cassville Seminary, and studied Greek, etc., at Juniata College; he farmed for a number of years and feels that the work was successful and congenial; taught nine years in the public schools of Huntingdon Co.; was baptized into the German Baptist Brethren Church June 15, 1856; was called to the ministry of this denomination June 24, 1864, and preached his first sermon from John xi:25, on Aug. 14, 1864. In 1889 he was ordained elder and has since been in charge of the Huntingdon Church'of the Brethren.

"In 1869 Henry Boyer Brumbaugh and his brother, John Boyer Brumbaugh, were led to leave the farm and go to `town' to begin the publication of a religious paper along certain distinct lines, and for which they and their advisers felt there was a distinct need. From their residence in Markles-burg, Pa., to the present, little can be said of the activities, sacrifices, and devotions of the one which does not apply to the other of these Brumbaugh Bros." [B.

"John Boyer Brumbaugh was born in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa., March 14, 1848 ; attended the common schools of that township until he was about seventeen years old, then went to a select school at Cassville, same county; attended Kishacoquillas Seminary for a time; taught in the public schools for five years; became associate editor of `Christian Family Companion' (Tyrone, Pa.) for ten months; became office editor of `The Pilgrim,' issued Jan. 1, 1870, at Marklesburg, Pa., as elsewhere noted, and remained closely associated in that publication with his brother, Henry Boyer Brumbaugh, until the consolidation with the `Primitive Christian,' Oct. 31, 1876. He also attended Millersville and Shippensburg State Normal Schools (Pa.), spent one year at Crozer Seminary and a summer session in the School of Theology at Chicago University—part of this attendance was after his election to the ministry of the G. B. B. Church in 1888.

"Early in 1875, at the earnest solicitation of their cousin, and from a full realization of the necessity for a larger field for business and other activities, Henry Boyer Brumbaugh and John Boyer Brumbaugh moved their families and the publishing business to Huntingdon, Pa.

" `Of those who figured prominently in the early history of Juniata College, no one has been more closely related to her inner life; no one more faithful and untiring in his devotion to the work, from the very beginning than has John Boyer Brumbaugh. In such a cause some personages necessarily stand out more prominently than others. But none the less important are those who humbly hide behind the more aggressive leaders and care for and zealously guard the very life of the institution. Such have been some of the members of the Board of Trustees, and amongst the first and truest has stood J. B. Brumbaugh. He it was who first interested Prof. Zuck in the movement at Huntingdon, and called him here. He and his good wife shared their home and table with Prof. Zuck for the first year, for which they received no compensation save the pleasure and inspiration of the presence of that noble hearted, godly man * * * *. He has done much soliciting for the college, and until recently received no compensation, and even paid for his own traveling expenses. He was treasurer of the College until

1880, when he resigned. He has also devoted much time and study to teaching Bible classes in the College. As a man, he is energetic and zealous in every good cause; and always willing to sacrifice when there is sacrificing to be done. A good man!' [Juniata Echo, 18971 •

"He has con tinously served as trustee of Juniata College, and for years taught a class in the Life of Christ in the Bible Dept. of that institution; has been a member of the Mission Board of the Middle Dist. of Pa. for over 20 years, excepting one year; has been visiting pastor of the Huntingdon Church of the Brethren for over five years; and continues in that position—is also editor of the `Church At Work,' the local church monthly.

"Mrs. Brumbaugh has also been closely and zealously connected with the development of the College, Church, Sunday School, and Orphans' Home at Huntingdon; and for many years has been supt. of the primary dept. of the Sunday School; 1902-03 was pres. of the local W. C. T. U. Her devo­tion and activities have been constant in all good works." [B. F. 562.]

"George Boyer Brumbaugh was born July 12, 1834 in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa. He worked on his father's farm (the old Brumbaugh homestead) and attended public school at the `Bowers school'; for one term went to a subscription school at Marklesburg to work up some branches not taught in the public school. He began teaching in 1849 and taught one term at the `Summers school­house,' one term at the `Mill schoolhouse,' two terms at the `Corner schoolhouse,' and two terms at the `Peightal schoolhouse.'

"He was elected to the ministry of the German Baptist Brethren Church in 1863, while he resided on a farm on the banks of the Raystown branch of the Juniata River. At the request of his brother, Andrew Boelus Brumbaugh, M.D., who then lived in Marklesburg, he moved to that village in 1865, and engaged in general mercantile business in connection with his ministry. He is well known and is colloquially distinguished from his cousin George Brumbaugh, another minister in the James Creek Congregation of the Church of the Brethren (G. B. B. Ch.), as `talking George,' which phrase indicates his natural eloquence and pulpit power.

"He was appointed by the court to make the survey of the original village of Marklesburg; and later made the survey for the extension of the boundaries of this borough; was borough engineer for many years; was a member of its first council and also of many subsequent councils. He served as burgess of the Borough, and also as a member of its school board. He was postmaster of James Creek (Marklesburg P. 0.), Huntingdon, Pa., for twenty-four years, and at one time owned more acres of land than any other resident of Penn Twp. In his later years he retired from mercantile business and has returned to his early love—the farm—living near the borough limit of Marklesburg, Pa." [B. F. 519.]

"Andrew Boelus Brumbaugh, M.D., was born August 9, 1836, upon the old homestead farm in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa. His education was begun in a subscription school prior to the estab­lishment of an organized system of public education in Pennsylvania, and continued in the public schools, after which he taught nine years. He attended a select school (`Academia') near Newport, Perry Co., Pa., and Millersville State Normal School. While working upon his father's farm and at the carpenter's bench, he studied some of the higher branches, ever striving to better equip himself-`Life is real, life is earnest,' was often repeated by him to his son, and others-these words explaining his constant activity in bettering conditions about him.

"His early training was academic, not collegiate, but by private study and earnest application he became a thorough master of the classics and sciences, thus fitting himself for that large sphere in life to which ambition and destiny led him.

"October 11, 1859, he married Maria Baer Frank on the Frank farm in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa. Her parents came from Lancaster Co., Pa., where the Brubakers, Baers and Franks have a long and interesting Mennonite ancestry.

"Andrew decided to make the practice of medicine his life work. While earning a living for his small family by working at the carpenter trade, with anatomy and other medical books open before him upon the work bench, he laid deeply the foundation for his later medical and surgical success. He also trained both hands, and became ambidextrous for his later surgical and other professional work. He matriculated at the Medical Dept. of the University of Pennsylvania, Oct., 1863, and graduated (M.D.) in the class of 1866, his thesis being `The True System of Medical Electicism.' Prior to gradua­tion he had acquired a .considerable medical practice in Penn Twp., and at Marklesburg, as shown by his diaries for '62 and '63. His entry for Jan. 27, 1865, 43 yrs. before his death, shows his constant depend­ence upon the Heavenly Father: `Had four patients today ** *. May the Lord, in whom we trust, and on whom we rely, prosper and assist me and give me wisdom, that I may succeed fully in my calling. Amen!'

"October 12, 1864, the family moved from the homestead farm to Marklesburg. In April, 1866, he located in the office of the late Dr. Luden, in Huntingdon, Pa., and continued in active practice in this town until his death." [B. F. 521.]

"Samuel B. Beyer of Hatfield, and Henrietta Gouldey of Montgomery, married Apr. 16, 1837." [Norristown. Register.]

"Samuel B. Beyer was raised on his father's farm in Montg. Co., Pa., but desiring to roam he became a drover, following this occupation for more than forty years. This pursuit gave him a whole­some experience with everyday life. He was a great talker, of excellent memory, and unquestioned integrity, kind and obliging, and slow in making a decision, but once having come to a conclusion it was impossible to have him change." [Dr. J. M. Beyer.]

In 1880 he returned to Norristown, Pa., where he kept a small grocery store. After the death of his wife he lived with his daughter, Jennie Gougler, near Centre Square, Pa., and the last years of his life were spent with his son, Dr. J. Monroe Beyer, of Bustleton, Pa.

Martin Grove Brumbaugh, A. M., M. S., Ph. D., LL. D., was born in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa. "He taught in the public schools two years and graduated at Brethren's Normal College with the degree of Bachelor of English in 1881, and in 1883 was made Master of English by that institution. Con­tinuing studies in science at Juniata College (of which he was president, 1892-1910), he took the B.S. degree there in 1885, and was made M. S. in 1887. In the meantime his active life as an educator had commenced with his service as professor of English Literature in Juniata College, 1882-84, and with the appointment as County Superintendent of Schools in Huntingdon County (Pa.); this latter office he held from 1884-90. In 1890-91 he was again professor of English Literature at Juniata. The next year was spent in graduate study at Harvard, and in 1892 Prof. Brumbaugh returned to Phila. to assume the duties of the president of Juniata College, and to pursue further studies at the Graduate School of the University of Pennsylvania, where the degree of A.M. was conferred upon him in 1893, and Ph. D. in 1895. It was but a natural consequence of a career in which the occupations of student and teacher have been so constantly and equally mingled, that the appointment as Professor of Pedagogy came to him from the University in 1894; as much a student as teacher himself, he is eminently fitted to teach the educators' profession." [ Universities and Their Sons— U. of Pa.—Chamberlain, 1901, p 430.]

He was "State conductor of teachers' institutes in Louisiana, 1886-91; first commissioner of educa­tion in Porto Rico, 1900-03; professor of pedagogy at U. of Pa., 1895-00, and 1902-06: superintendent of public schools, Phila. since 1906; author History of the Brethren (1899): Juniata Bible Lecture (1897) ; Standard Reader (5 vols.); also (with J. S. Walton) Stories of Pennsylvania and Liberty Bell Leaflets; The Making of a Teacher (1905); Life and Works of Christopher Dock (1908) ; editor of Lippincott Educational Series." [Who's Who in America, 1910-11, p 251.]

Dr. Brumbaugh has always been in great demand as a lecturer at teachers' institutes throughout the country. In recognition of his work in the educational field he has been honored by many institu­tions, having received the degree of LL.D. from Mount Morris College, Franklin and Marshall College, Pennsylvania College, and the University of Pittsburgh. In 1914 he was elected Governor of Pennsyl­vania, serving a four year term, or during the period of the War. Since relinquishing the office of Gover­nor, Dr. Brumbaugh has been engaged in the service of the United States Government in the Depart­ment of Vocational Training. Both Dr. Brumbaugh and his father were elected ministers of the Ger­man Baptist Brethren Church.

Gains Marcus Brumbaugh, M. S., M. D., was born in Penn Twp., Huntingdon Co., Pa., on the old homestead farm. He was educated in the Huntingdon Academy, Brethren's Normal School and Juniata College, graduating from the latter institution in 1879. He also received the degrees of M. E. and M. S. from the same college in 1898. After teaching in public schools for several years he attended medical lectures at the University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, and Howard University from which he was graduated in 1885 with the degree of M. D. He was also given the degree of M. D. from the Medical Department of Georgetown University in 1898.

In 1882 Dr. Brumbaugh moved to Washington, D. C., where he has held several positions under the United States Government, the last being Assistant Chief of the Bureau of Animal Industry. Since 1899 he has been a member of the Third Board U. S. Pension Examining Surgeons. For fourteen years Dr. Brumbaugh was lecturer on materia medico, and therapeutics in the National Training School for Nurses (Sibley Hospital), but in 1911 he gave up this position with a number of other activities in order to devote more of his time to the completion of his large book, "Genealogy of the Brumbaugh Families," which was published in 1913. In addition he has also published the following: "Lists of Swiss Emigrants in the Eighteenth Century to the American Colonies," "Zurich to Carolina and Pennsyl­vania (1734-1744)," "Maryland Records." Dr. Brumbaugh is also editor of the "National Genea­logical Society Quarterly." [B. F., p 613.]

Jackson Beyer was born in Montg. Co., Pa., and after the death of his mother in 1866, he lived on a farm with his grandfather, Frederick Brunner, for three years, after which he went to Iowa and en­gaged in farming. In 1879 he entered into partnership with his brother-in-law, John H. Queal, in the lumber business at Sheldahl, Iowa. In 1884 he moved to Des Moines, Iowa, where Queal and Company had opened a lumber yard, and he was connected with this company until his death.
