Jacob Gundryman, carpenter; buried at Bellegrove; 1 child, a daughter. Mrs. Lineaweaver says that her uncle, George Kreider, was a shoemaker, that he went to Dayton, Ohio, and that when well advanced in years he married a young woman, but had no children. Of her Uncle Daniel Kreider, she says that in the west he built a large mill, went aloft to inspect the roof before it was finished, that in descending the ladder gave way, he fell and was killed. Contrary to the acocunt afore she thinks he was never married, but by neither account has he descendants living.

The youngest son and child of Rev. Martin Kreider was Tobias, who was never married. He died In Franklin county aged 75 years. This brings us to the end of the history of Rev Martin Kreider. When we consider -what Rev.

Martin did in himself, founded the work of the United Brethren in the Lebanon Valley, that his son, Rev. John laid the foundation of that church in Franklin county, that his grandson founded Salem of Lebanon, the mother church of the city, and was about the first presiding elder of the church in the Lebanon Valley, and when we consider all the preachers who sprang from him and" the devoted lay members, we venture the assertion that he did more for the United Brethren church than any other man that ever lived. When we consider along with this what a branch of the family of his brother Jacob did for Lebanon Valley College and what members of other branches have done, the question begins to formulae itself: What would be left of the United Brethren Church if all the Kreider blood were taken out of It We are also at the end of history of the descendants of John who located on the western pan of the ''Kreider Settlement." We have entered the inmost depths of the labyrinth, and are still alive. But there still remain some Kreiders whom we have not vfsited. We know of a number who have waited long to see if we would ever come to them, and some are waiting still.

We must go back to Jacob who located on the eastern part of the "Settlement" in order to reach them JACOB THE SETTLER OX SNITZ CREEK The patient reader has accompanied us In our wanderings and explorations, in our attempts to solve the early Krfeider problem, doing much to help us on our way. Some may say you should have completed your work and known your own mind before you went to print. It i easv ror those who do nothing to criticise" and the ugly thing about it is that the criticism of such is always of the destructive kind. It is the criticism of the men who are wholesouled in the struggle that'is legitimate, and consequently is welcome. The other kind bears the marks of illegitimacy born out of wedlock.

It was not the purpose of these papers to complete the history before beginning publication, but publication Ws commenced, and had been so intended as soon as a proper beginning had been secured. The writer also lacked the advantage of being one of the family who for many, years hag thought, talked and investigated the subject! It perhaps is no reflection on him that he has displayed a zeal that again and again has called forth the inquiry: "Why, are you a Kreider?" If we have not been a Kreider, neither have we been a busy body. we are glad to state that we have never been treated as we were once treated in gathering history of a family outside of Lebanon county. We had been very courteously receiv- ed into a borne with some marks of next to oldwt son of Jacob, the Set- culture miles away, had been Invited tier.

He bordered on "Klein- opened the door and with remark- fef." of which we have written and able brevity and stiffness said: "I out of which he bought Jan. 7, 1772, show you the door." We arose with 48 acres and 27 perches of land, the remark: "We entered your house which lay along the lane running as a genneraan on a mission request- into'the old John Q. Royer farm and Vivr A fa I A Vi on 1c un A. ed by the family.

The house is and on your request we leave." And we. were off for more pleasant fields. We later learned that there were things about this particular branch of that family that were more than shady. Worthy representatives of good families always delight in examining their history, and are always grateful to persons who render service along this line. As the Journey among the Kreiders thua far has been very pleasant, we anticipate that the home stretch will be of a similar nature.

As to Jacob the Settler on Snitz in the first issue of these articles we quoted from two legal papers which gave the names of his wife and children. There is BO doubt on this subject. And his own name is equally certain. Some call him Abraham. His name was Jacob, plain Jacob; nor was it John Jacob.

The legal papers, so far as we know have no mention of a John Jacob. It was John and Jacob on Snitz Creek John to the west and Jacob to the east. Both received land warrants on the same day, June 3, 1741. Tradition and a legal paper say their father was Martin, and according to the gentleman who made the address on Rev. Christian S.

-Kreider the father of Martin was the Jacob who settled in at Lancaster about 1715. Perhaps this Jacob had the four sons. The four son tradition may be from the fact that John the Settler on Snitz Creek had four sons. WeTiave doubts about the Martin, born in 16 SI, wtio had sons, Joseph and Frederick, being the Martin, however, here in question. If he were the Martin in question, how- his sons or grandsons would be called Joseph and Frederick.

That was the way they did things in those days named after the relatives. Then they had many children and few names; now we have many rfames and few children. Then they accomplished ranch and talked little; today we talk much and get nothing done. Jacob's wife's name was Mary. Jacob died before 1748.

In that year June 15, as we saw at the beginning Mary had additional contiguous land surveyed to her. the first survey to her was May 14, 1742, likely resurvey of land given her husband by warrant in 1741, making in all 585 acres, which in 1760 was given by Patent Deed to her sons, Christian, Martin, and George. The four son tradition may originate here. By Oct. 2, 1751, the widow Mary had married Henry Xander, (Sanders), whose wife Anna Eliza, b.

1701; 23, 1750, or a year and before the above date, which was likely very soon after their marriage, for on that date for a consideration they transferred the 585 acres to the before-mentioned sons of Jacob and Mary Kreider. which land, however, was not yet patented. The sons then secured a. patent deed, but the mother had first to sign a similar paper to the former in her previous name, Maria Kreider, as we saw at the beginning. Heinrich Xander and his first wife were Moravians and are buried at Hebron.

He was a notable character in the early days of our county He was born Nov. 16, 1703, and died Oct. 17, 1772. He had taken up 150 acres of land March 20, 1743, likely a short distance east of Annville On Nov. 26, 1753., two years after his marriage to Mary Kreider, he took up 200 acres more; and May 12 1797, he took up 50 acres additional making in all 400 acres.

In the i cemetery at Hebron is a stone which' has interpreted as having the name Maria Yeader, b. Jan. 10, 1702- d. 1769. Some of those names are hard to discipher, and we more than half believe that it should be Maria Xander, the second wife of Xander and formerly the wife of Jacob Kreider, the settler at Snitz Creek The Christian name agrees, and the dates are about what we would expect There may be a mistake in interpreting the and the n.

Not unlikely the old Kreider cemetery began with the burial of Jacob. The legal papers tell us very explicit that Jacob and Mary 4 Kreider had 8 Rons and 1 daughter. They were as follows: John, likely b. about Christian, b. likely about d.

Oct. 13, Francis, d. before 1751 tlans. He is the oldest of alL He up to the Bomberger cemetery. The road running to Zinn's mill, we are told, constituted the southwestern boundary of the Kreider Settlement.

Christian's two tracts, his descend-' ant, J. S. Bomberger, tells us, comprised the eastern farm of Henry Bomberger, the Royer. now Spltler farm, the southeastern part the Frank Hauck estate, the purchased tract being partly an addition to the Mace farm, the balance being in the Adam Hauck estate, with the exception of a small strip of the Louser farm. Christian made his will Aug.

15, 1789. To his son Jacob he bequeathed 108 acres, which was then bounded by lands of Martin Cryder, Frederick Zimmerman and George Hock (Hoke). To his son Christian. he gave the remainder of his land, 102 acres, containing the buildings, bordered by lands of Frederick Wolfersberger, George Ellinger. George Hock, Philip Greenawalt, Frederick Zimmerman, and Jacob Cryder.

The care of his wife Mary he left conjointly to his sons Jacob and Christian. "I give and bequeath to my Beloved Wife that little room wherein my son Christian now for her residence together with the stone in it." And my son Jacob shall supply my said wife yearly with four cords of good flre wood, and my son Christian with three cords ditto, well split and cut for the stove, to be carried before her Door." Each son was to supply her with ten bushels of potatoes yearly. Jacob and Christian were the executors. Christian seems to have been a man of considerable influence and wealth: He had 4 children: Jacob, b. d.

in' Christian, received half of homestead; perhaps never married. Anna, m. Jacob Secrist, of whom we have no additional knowledge Tobias, b. Dec. 8, 1759; July 22, (To be continued on Thursday.)
