Generation No. 1

1. CASPAR3 DEFIBAUGH (KASPER

2 TIEFENBACH, JOHANNES

1) was born July 12, 1732 in Graben (near Stuttgardt),

Durlach Territory, Germany1, and died 1799 in Lancaster Co. PA, interred Union Cemetery in center of downtown

Somerset. He married (1) CATHERINE MISCHLER April 22, 1754 in New Holland, Lancaster Co, PA at Trinity

Lutheran Church2, daughter of ULRICH MISHLER and ANNA DODEREAS. She was born Abt. 1730 in Eutigen

Pforzheim, Bad-Durlach area of Wuttemberg, Germany, and died Abt. 1786 in PA, prob. Lancaster County. He

married (2) SOPHIA C. SAGERHOFFER. She was born Abt. 1740.

Notes for CASPAR DEFIBAUGH: On August 13, 1750 he arrived at Philadelphia on the ship "Edinburg." He moved

to Lancaster (now Bedford Co), PA in 1765. On the 1768 tax list, his name is spelled "Gasper Devabough." In

1775 and 1785, Colerain Twp, Bedford Co, PA, he was taxed for 150 acres of land. Casper Devebaugh is shown in

Colerain Twp, PA in 1785 with 215 acres of land (Bedford Co. Archives, Vol. III, p. 84). In 1783 he purchased land

in Brothers Valley Twp, Bedford Co (now Somerset), PA. Name is also seen spelled Kaspar Dieffenbach or

Tieffenbach or Defenbaugh in some references. Casper and his son Johann Gottlieb built a tavern on a bend in the

Juniata River near the village of Hartley [now Snake Spring Valley Twp]. The nomination form for listing the

Defibaugh Tavern on the National Register of Historic Places

(https://www.dot7.state.pa.us/ce_imagery/phmc_scans/H001143_01H.pdf) includes a brief history from "The

Pioneer," a local historical publication. It states that Casper was married three times and had 10 children. The

Tavern was built about 1785 on part of Casper's land.

THE DEFIBAUGH TAVERN by Justin R. Lynn

The Defibaugh Tavern - Built 1785

This Story begins long ago when the military road ran from Carlisle to Fort Pitt in the province of Pennsylvania.

In the mid-1700's in the western part of Cumberland County, there were two well known taverns. One was the

Forks Inn built in 1762, and the other was the Defibaugh Tavern on Route 30 between Bedford and Everett. The

Defibaugh Tavern was said to be the largest inn along the old Pennsylvania road.

The origin and name of the Defibaugh Tavern began in Bad Liebenzell, Germany, with Johannes Tiefenbach, born

1660. Johannes occupation was a banker and he was a member of the Church of Graben, Germany. A son Kasper

was born in 1695, Kasper married Eva Catherine Pfiel, to this marriage there were born five sons Eva Pfiel and four

of her sons died in Germany, the youngest, Johannes Adam, born 1732, died in America in 1810 age 78. Kasper

having a young son remarried in Germany in 1735, taking Sabina Weber as his second wife, to this marriage were

born three males and three females between 1736 and 1750. During that time, Kasper's son Johannes Adam was

living in America in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Through Johannes influence his family migrated to America. Kasper sailed first leaving his wife and family to

follow. He sailed from Portsmouth, England on the ship Edinburgh, the ship arrived at the port of Philadelphia on

August 13 1750. Kasper secured an indenture on May 14, 1751, for 400 acres west of the Susquehanna River in

disputed territory. An agreement was made to pay for the land on yearly installments.

At the time Kasper did not know that has family had already left Germany until he read the immigration lists at the

port of Philadelphia They stated" Mrs. Kasper Tiefenbach has migrated from Graben to America, August 28, 1751,

with her children. When Mrs. Kasper Tiefenbach arrived in Philadelphia she was so ill from the rough sea voyage

she died soon thereafter, it is not known where she is buried.

Kasper could not cope with the family so he took on his third wife Catherine Mischler of Lancaster County in 1754.

To this marriage were several children, Gottlieb born in 1754 had four children; Johannes born in 1756; Elizabeth

born 1760 became the wife of Frederick Hill, they had ten children, Susanna born in 1765, died in 1866 living to be

101 years old, she became the wife of Jacob Earnst of Bedford County.

Kasper and his family moved from Lancaster to Bedford County, probably around 1772. In 1775 in Bedford County,

Kasper was taxed for 150 acres, 15 acres improved, 2 horses and a cow. When Kasper settled on this tract of land,

he and his eldest son Gottlieb cut timber and built a sturdy log cabin, with an outdoor bake oven, an outdoor

cookhouse, a barn and a stake and rider fence enclosing fields to provide a safe coral for the drovers stock, the

travelers’ horses, and a place to rest. An important asset of the tavern was the powerful flow of spring water piped to

a roadside trough.

As Kasper's family began to grow there was a need for improvements in his home. He added sleeping rooms at the

rear of the log tavern, a two story gallery entered by the stairs from the ground level. On some nights, if the inn was

crowded, people slept on blankets on the gallery floors. Kasper's son Gottlieb took over management of the tavern,

with help from other family members. The name of Gottlieb's wife is unknown. She is supposedly buried in the

Defibaugh Graveyard, across the Raystown River at Hartley Dam. The Tavern was sold to David Mottimore in 1862

and it became known as "The Willows.” The Tavern was restored to its originality by Williard and Velma

Defibaugh in 1978. The name Tiefenbach is the German spelling of Dieffenbach/Dieffenbacher/Devibaugh/

Defibaugh/Deffenbaugh/Devenbaugh and Diefenbaugh.

Notes for CATHERINE MISCHLER: Catherine's marriage to Casper Diefenbach/Tiefenbach is recorded in the records

of the Trinity Lutheran Church, Lancaster, PA. Her step-father was Christian Zug, who died in 1787. His will states

that Catherine's share of his estate goes to her brother, Jacob, which suggests that she was deceased when the will

was written.

Children of CASPAR DEFIBAUGH and CATHERINE MISCHLER are: 2. i. JOHANN GOTTLIEB

Notes for ADAM DEFIBAUGH: "Adam was indicted for riot, assault and battery in the August, 1794 term of the

Bedford County Court of Quarter Session. The November, 1794 records for the same court shows that Jacob and

Adam Defibaugh were among those charged for treasonous activities during the whiskey excise protest

movement" (https://www.dot7.state.pa.us/ce_imagery/phmc_scans/H001143_01H.pdf). There were 125 men,

including Jacob and Adam, indicted for "a riot and other treasonable proceedings in assisting and abetting the

setting up a seditious pole in opposition to the laws of the United States." Benjamin F. Defibaugh told his

grandson, Bill, that federal troops burned the distillery and that Jacob and Adam served short jail terms.

Notes for JOHANN GOTTLIEB DEFIBAUGH: Gottlieb ran a tavern called "Bloody Run" on the Pittsburgh and

Baltimore Pike, halfway between Bedford and Everett (source: Ray Dieffenbach letter to Mary H. West, 24 Nov

1976). John Devebaugh was taxed as an innkeeper in Providence Twp. by 1785 until 1811. He then moved to

Somerset County where he opened a tavern.

Some information on the descendants of Gottlieb Defibaugh was drawn from the fine work of Jane LouElla

Defibaugh Ogle. Her wonderful online scrapbook contains photographs, documents, and newspaper clippings that

verify her information.

Defibaugh Farm Family Cemetery

“This cemetery is located on the south side of Walnut Road, on the property of Mr. Earl Kimble of RD No. 7, Box

52, Bedford, Pa. and in Snake Spring Twp., Bedford Co., Pa. The cemetery plot is situated approximately 100 yds.

east of the farm house, in a wood plot. The buildings of what is known as Camp Hartley are located on the east side

of the cemetery plot. The property of Mr. Shaffer, of Johnstown, Pa., adjoins the cemetery plot, on the east side.

The cemetery is rectangular in shape, It is approximately 79 feet long and 75 feet wide. It is no longer in use and is

in poor condition. Many of the headstones are broken off of their foundations. There are a number of trees and

bramble bushes growing in the cemetery plot. The headstones are arranges in rows extending from the east to the

west, along the length of the cemetery plot. All of the remaining headstones face the south.” Contributed for use by

3, KASPER


1) was born February 05, 1757 in Lancaster

Co, PA, and died September 28, 1854 in Harrison Twp, Bedford Co, PA at age 973. She married FREDERICK HILL

April 01, 1779 in Colerain Twp, Bedford Co, PA at the home of her father, Casper Defibaugh4. He was born

September 13, 1745 in Brunswick, Germany5, and died May 02, 1838 in Bedford Co, PA at age 93

6.

Notes for ELIZABETH DEFIBAUGH: My great-aunt, Hazel Keim Warner, told me that Elizabeth moved with her

family to Bedford Co, PA at the age of 11. The widow applied for a pension on 21 Aug 1847 in Bedford Co, PA,

and it was granted. At that time she was living in Harrison Twp, Bedford Co, PA. Elizabeth is buried next to her

husband, at Old Log Church Cemetery, Schellsburg, Bedford Co, PA, located at the west edge of Schellsburg on

Route 30. According to Frederick's pension papers, she gave birth to 12 children. In July 2009, M.L. Cook visited

the cemetery and found Elizabeth's stone broken and on the ground next to Frederick's marker. It was recently

repaired for a ceremony at the cemetery.

1840 census - Elizabeth Hill has not yet been found. I wonder if she remarried, but it seems unlikely since she is

buried next to Frederick.

1850 census - not yet found

Notes for FREDERICK HILL: Frederick grew up in Germany, but nothing is known of him until he came to America.

According to family genealogist, Juanita Kellerman, Frederick was born April 13, 1750 in Braunswchweig

(Brunswick), Germany (source: Kellerman, Juanita, "The Hill Ancestor was a Hessian Soldier," The Garnett

Review, 3 Feb 1986). He was a Revolutionary War veteran who came to America as a German Mercenary with

General Burgoyne's army. Frederick took the place of an older brother in Germany who had been drafted into the

Army. He was one of 5,723 Hessian soldiers from Brunswick. He deserted 14 June 1777 with 17 other men, and

fought with the Americans for a while with General Pulaski and under Gen. Gates (source: Hiller, A.D., Executive

Assistant to the Administrator, Letter to Edna G. Pellett Concerning Frederick Hill, Revolutionary War Veteran, 7

Jan 1938, From the Revolutionary War Claim for Pension, W. 7738).

This account was written by A.D. Hiller (1939): "Frederick Hill was in the British Army under General Burgoyne

in the northern part of New York State, when he and seventeen other soldiers left the British and on June 14, 1777,


4

crossed the Hudson River in an old boat, using their hats for oars, and joined the American Army under General

Gates, served under Major Washington, was present at the capture of Burgoyne's Army, after which, he, with eight

of the men who crossed the Hudson with him, was sent to Springfield, New Jersey, where he served under Captain

Andrew Mann and guarded, for a short time, between the two and three hundred prisoners captured by the

Americans from Colonel ___ Regiment; sometime later in October, 1777, he went to White Plains and enlisted in

Captain ___ (Irwin's) Company of the Flying Camp___ until March 1778, during which period he aided in ___ three

bridges, one over the Hackensack River, and was discharged from the Flying Camp at White Plains. After this

service he went to Fredericktown, Maryland, where he again entered the service under General Pulaski and in the

fall of 1778, was ordered to Staunton, Virginia, where he, being a blacksmith, was engaged during the winter (1778-

1779) caring for the horses of General Pulaski's Corps and assisted in making seven hundred pairs of horseshoes.

When General Pulaski marched to the south, Frederick Hill remained in Staunton caring for a number of lame

horses, and when he heard of General Pulaski's death, he returned to Fredericktown, Maryland, with the horses

where he delivered them to the proper authorities. He volunteered in 1780 and served three months as Indian spy

and scout, in Bedford County, Pennsylvania, under Lieutenant Wood and Colonel Davidson. He joined the

Pennsylvania militia in 1780. After the Revolutionary War, he moved from Fredericktown, Maryland, to Bedford

County, Pennsylvania, Frederick was allowed pension on his application executed January 1, 1834, at which time he

was a resident of Napier Township, Bedford Co. PA."

Frederick received a pension for service as a private in Berks Co, PA militia (source: DAR volume 16, p. 27;

Newman, Harry Wright, Maryland Revolutionary Records, Washington D.C., 1938, page 115.). In 1785, he owned

land valued at 13 pounds in Colerain Twp (PA Archives, Vol. III, p. 85). Frederick was paid 38 pounds 15 shillings

for serving the state of PA as a substitute in the fifth class of Berks Co, PA. Payment was received 14 March 1778

(recorded in the PA Archives, Vol 5, Fifth Series, p. 259).

On 8 March 1794, Frederick Hill purchased 100 acres of land with buildings in Colerain Twp, Bedford Co, PA from

Martin and Catharina Frits for 70 pounds (Photocopy of Bedford Co. land record in the files of M.L. Cook, copied

June 2009). This land was located "on the north side of the river Juniata, adjoining lands of William Frazer on the

West, John Devebaugh on the East, Juniata on the South East, and on the North bounded by Dunnings Mountain in

the Township of Providence." The following information abstracted from the land record by Mary Lou Cook:

Indenture dated 8 March 1794 between Martin Frits of Colerain Twp, Bedford Co, PA and Frederick Hill,

Blacksmith, of Providence Twp, Bedford County, PA.

[The following information documents the owners of the land]

1. Thomas Burns obtains a warrant from Pennsylvania on 2 Sept 1785 for 100 acres of land on the North side of the

Juniata River, adjoining the lands of William Frazer on the West, John Devebaugh on the East, the Juniata River on

the South East and bounded on the North by the Dunnings Mountain in Providence Twp.

2. Thomas Burns sold the land to Thomas Anderson, Town of Bedford Inn keeper, on 17 March 1787.

3. Thomas Anderson sold the land to Martin Frits on 14 June 1792.

4. Martin Frits and his wife Catherine sold the land to Frederick Hill.

Frederick Hill and his wife Elizabeth sold 111 acres of land in Providence Twp to John Ewalt, Tanner, of the town

of Providence for 200 pounds on 8 March 1794 (Photocopy of Bedford Co. land record in the files of M.L. Cook,

copied June 2009).

An indenture dated 16 Sept 1800 between Frederick Hill and his wife Elizabeth who were selling land to Isaac

Rineart in Hopewell Twp. The record states that a patent was executed by Thomas McKean, Esq, Governor of

Pennsylvania dated 28 Jan 1800 on a tract of land called "Hope" situated between the Warrior Ridge and T___

Mountain in Hopewell Twp. The land, consisting of 194 acres, was surveyed on 8 Jan 1793 and granted to Daniel

Devibaugh, who sold it to Frederick Hill. On page 2 of this record, you can see that Frederick Hill signed the

indenture, but Elizabeth made her mark, indicating that she could not write her name.

In testimony whereof I hereby Affix the Seal of this Department

Frederick and his wife Elizabeth had 12 children (7 sons and 5 daughters). I have guessed at some of the birthdates

based on 1820 and 1830 census records. They moved to Bedford Co. PA from Fredericktown, MD after the

Revolutionary War. Frederick was taxed in Colerain Twp in 1785. According to land records in Bedford Co, PA,

Frederick Hill and family lived in Providence Twp when he purchased land in 1794. Frederick is buried at

Schellsburg, PA, Old Log Church Cemetery, next to his wife. At one time, there was a plaque containing his name

in the church at Schellsburg, but when I visited the church in 2009, the plaque was not there.

interred Messiah Lutheran church; m. (1) ELIZA WERTZ; d. 1858; m. (2) ELLEN ARNOLD, 1859; d. Aft. 1902.

Notes for DANIEL EARNEST: Daniel Earnest died at his residence near Imlertown on September 15, in the 84th

year of his age. He was born, July 4, 1818, near Mt. Dallas, and was the youngest of a family of twelve children.

He was buried at the Messiah Lutheran church, where many of his relatives rest, among them his grandmother,

who was captured by the Indians near this place and sold to the white people when she worked for her freedom.

The deceased had been a member of the Brethren church for about forty years. Earlier in life he had been a

member of the Reformed church. He lived an upright Christian life. Although a man in the humble walks of life,

with little education, his good common sense and judgment, his honesty, industry and integrity brought him

among men of high stations in life. He was kind and cheerful in his home; children loved to be with him. We

always loved to hear him tell stories of long ago, of his experiences in wagoning from Pittsburg to Baltimore and

Philadelphia, over the Allegheny, when often covered with ice; of how he caught a cub bear one day while

ploughing near Mt. Dallas, tamed it and had it for a pet; then the story of his grandmother and two uncles being

captured by the Indians we never tired of hearing. He was always a peacemaker where ever he lived and was

often called to help make peace where there were difficulties. He inherited a strong constitution from his mother

but suffered a great deal with rheumatism and dropsy in old age, brought on by exposure while young. He

retained his mental faculties until nearly two years ago. His mother's name was Susannah Defibaugh, daughter of

Casper Defibaugh. They lived below Bedford, on what is now called the Fisher farm. Their family record has

been lost, but as near as her family could tell, she was 101 years old when she died in February 1866. Her mental

and physical powers were wonderful. She could sew without glasses when about 98 or 99. She was a fine sewer.

She never would sew on Ascension Day. Her memory was very good. She used to tell us how the Indians would

come near them when they would be doing their scouring and other work at the river bank. She was a member the

Lutheran church, a very pious woman. My first recollections of her were putting her two little granddaughters in

their trundle bed and hearing them say their evening prayers while tucking the cover around them and teaching us

all to be very quiet while it thundered. His father's name was Jacob Earnest. To these parents were born six sons

and six daughters. The sons all died while young but Daniel. The daughters were Eve, Sally, Betsy, Susan, Katie

and Rosa. Eve married Thomas Nevitt. Their children were Jacob; William, of Ohio; James, of Clear Ridge;

Thomas, of Everett. Sally married Stephen Clarke; their children were Eliza, of Pittsburg; Lydia, of New Orleans;

Mary and John, of St. Louis; and Rachel. Most of them are dead now. Betsy married a man by the name of Stuby.

He was a German. They lived in Somerset county. He got money from Germany sometimes. One night he went to

the store or somewhere else, and never came back. It was thought he was murdered. The widow came home

again. Her children were Mary and Frederick, both dead; Jacob, of Hopewell township, and Conrad, of

Washington state. She afterward married a Mr. Edenbo or Edenbaugh, by whom she had one son, Daniel. Her

second husband was scalded to death in a limekiln near Bedford. Katie died in infancy. Susan married a Mr.

Wickersham, of West Chester. Rosa married Solomon Border, of Clear Ridge. They moved to Athens county,

Ohio, where their children reside. When Daniel was about twelve years of age his father, then a blacksmith at Mt.

Dallas, died, at the age of 65 years. This left him alone with his aged mother. He supported her from the time he

was about 14 years old until she died. His sister, with her children, were at the old home part of the time and also

dependent upon him. His father was about taking up a piece of vacant land. Daniel built a house on this for his

mother. He always loved to talk of his boyhood days at Abram Richey's old woolen factory and of his

associations with the Hartleys and Lutzes. He left the valley and farmed for William Nycum of Mann's Choice,

then called "Foot of Dry Ridge." He did not stay more than a year here. Katie Hartley, mother of Judge Hartley,

drove up in her carriage to get him to come back again. He said, "he knew where he was coming," and came

back. Wherever he lived he was true and faithful to his employers and their families were his friends for life. He

was married twice; his first wife was Eliza Wertz, daughter of Thomas and Eve Dibert Wertz, of Milliken's Cove,

who died, of consumption, in 1858. Four children were born to them, William, Emily Jane, Rosa and Jacob. The

latter died when young. William, an old soldier, lives at Freeport, Ill. Rosa married Richard May and moved to

Hayes Centre, Neb. Jennie married Alfred Phillips, of Maywood, Neb. In 1859 he married Mrs. Ellen Miller,

widow of Jacob Miller, of Buffalo Mills, and oldest daughter of Peter and Hannah Arnold, of Cumberland Valley.

Six children were born to these parents: Hannah Belle, now dead, married Eugene Nobb, of Maywood, Neb.;

Susan Rebecca married N. S. Replogle, of New Enterprise, both deceased; Sarah Elizabeth married David Dibert,

moved to Manassas, Va.; Peter Franklin and Daniel Henry, of Altoona; and Edward Oscar, at the old home. Two

step-daughters were partly raised in his home also: Mrs. Charlotte Baker, of near Manassas, Va., and Mrs. Emma

A. Replogle, of New Enterprise. His aged widow survives him and goes to Virginia to live with her daughter

Notes for DANIEL DEFIBAUGH: This may be the Daniel Devibaugh who sold 150 acres of land to Frederick Hill in

1801 in Hopewell Twp, Bedford Co, PA.

1800 census, Providence and Colerain Twp, Bedford Co, PA: Daniel Devebaugh next door to his sister Elizabeth

and her family. Daniel and his wife had 3 daughters on this record.

1810 census - not found but need to check Ohio

"Family records were burned at the start of the Revolutionary War. Daniel Devenbaugh is said to be the first white

man that was in Richland County (Ohio). He drove a baggage wagon in George Wayne's army. He was also an

Indian Trader. He and the old Indian chief, Jerome, used to camp together on Jerome Fork (Find-a-Grave Memorial

#76610492).

Notes for ANNA MARIA KOOKEN: MRS. MARY THOMPSON

The death of Mrs Mary THOMPSON, wife of Colonel James Thompson occurred at her home in this city Monday

night at 10 o'clock after an illness of nearly a year. Her maiden name was Mary KOOKEN and was born in Carlisle,

Pa in 1798 being in her 84th year at time of death. In 1816 she removed to Harrison County Ohio and at New

Rumley in Sept 1823 (sic. 1824) married James THOMPSON.

The family removed to Carrollton that state sometime later and made that place their home for many years. In 1845

(sic. possibly 1846) they again removed to Indiana and came to this county in 1846 and resided here ever since. To

Mr. and Mrs. THOMPSON 3 daughters and 5 sons were born, and Mrs. George D. TEMPLE and Mrs. John R.

SHAFFER now living in this city and 2 sons, one in Van Buren County and one in Montana yet survive. Mrs.

THOMPSON was a woman of unusual energy and vitality and until about a year ago always busied herself about

her household duties and was as industrious and brisk about her work as one of younger years. Old age with its

increasing burdens finally compelled her to yield, thought she resigned her labors with great reluctance. She was

truly a good woman, a kind and affectionate wife and mother, an esteemed neighbor and was for many years a

member of the M.E. Church. Her funeral occurs this afternoon at 2:30 and the remains will be interred in this city"

NOTE: Anna Maria Kooken (Thompson) was also the widow of Daniel Dieffabaugh, Devenbaugh who died in 1820

in Ohio. Per: Historical collections of Harrison County, in the State of Ohio w Lists by Charles Augustus Hanna:

(page 304) John Thompson and Mary Devenbaugh, April 28, 1825, Married by JR Kirkpatrick, J.P. I also have

records indicating she was born in 1776. Women have often lied about their age as well as shoe size whenever they

could get an advantage by doing so. Our family genes today indicate she may well have gotten away with such a

deception. Anna Maria's daughter, Mary Ann b. 1804, died in Kentucky, and would not have kept the name Kooken

(Richard K Thompson, Find-a-Grave Memorial #50649588 for Anna Maria "Devanbaugh" Kooken Thompson).

Notes for ABRAHAM DEFIBAUGH:

1840 census - not found in Bedford Co, PA

1850 census, Effingham, Illinois: Abraham Defenbaugh (60) lived with Steven (33) and Ann (30) Ryan and family.

Relationship not known at this time.

1860 census, Mason PO, Township 7 Range 5 E, Effingham, Illinois: Abram Defibaugh [indexed as Defenbaugh]

(74) with his son John C. (50) and wife Isabella (45) and their children Patience (14), Jacob (12), Wm (10), and John

(7). Also a farm laborer, Robert Johnson (27) from England.

N. Weller posted to GenForum that Elizabeth Culbertson was the 2nd wife. I'm working on that assumption.

Various online genealogies show the children with both mothers. I have made a working assumption that Abraham

and Elizabeth were married about 1811 so all children born after that date are with her. Proof is needed for the two

marriages.

Before he moved to Illinois, Abraham operated the tavern on the east end of Mile Level know as Defibaugh’s

Willows Tavern - the same one built by his father and grandfather.

Obituary: John C. Defebaugh was born in Bedford county, Pennsylvania, August the13th, 1809, and departed this

life January 20, 1894, at the age of 84 years, 5 months and 7 days. He was married to Isabelle Barndollar, and


19

moved to Effingham county, Illinois, in the year 1840, where he resided until his death; and was buried in the Old

Freemington [sic] grave yard, near his home, on Monday, January 22d. He leaves his aged companion and six

children to mourn his loss; one child having proceeded him to the world beyond. The funeral services were

conducted by Rev. J. W. Alspach, at the old homestead. A large concourse of friends and relatives followed the

remains to their last resting place. Mr. Defebaugh was once thought to be the wealthiest man in Effingham county,

and his word was considered as good as his bond. But being a man of such a generous disposition, would sell goods

or property to the poor on time, taking their notes, which very many failed to pay; as he never went to law, probely

[sic] never sued a man in his life. At one time he showed us accounts and notes that amounted to many hundred

dollars, that he held on persons that were able to pay, but the obligations were outlawed, and the old man through his

own generosity was in straightened circumstances. We often wondered what kind of elastic concience [sic] such

persons had, that knew that in his old days when he was scarcely able to be around, had to labor. For several years

past his mind failed, and he became helpless and childish." (source unknown, posted to Find-a-Grave # 48691435 by

Notes for MARY CATHERINE DEFIBAUGH: "We have a couple of obits for her that were clipped from local

newspapers; we suspect one was the Altamont News, 23 July 1924, but this is not yet confirmed. The obits may

still be covered by copyright, so we will not post them here.

Father John C. Defebaugh operated a store in town, and Mary spent her entire life in the vicinity of Freemanton &

Altamont. She was one of 7 children, having 2 sisters, and 4 brothers.

Mary was married to Hiram Brown on 19 Jun 1858. The wedding occurred in Shelby county, at the home of John

B. Williams, a prominent black abolitionist, and friend of Hiram & Mary.

Mary & Hiram were parents of 4 children, 3 of whom reached adulthood (Emory Clem, Eugenia Belle, Lena).

After his service in the Civil War, Hiram tried farming, but soon decided to open a store. He opened a general

store in Altamont ca. 1872 and continued to operate it for nearly 40 years. Mary operated a millinery business in

Altamont for many years.

The couple retired from business ca. late 1911, purchased a large house on Main st., and lived out their days

there. Hiram died in 1921, and his funeral was held on what would have been their 63rd wedding anniversary.

Mary died 3 years later, in 1924.

Cemetery records indicate that Mary was interred (with her husband) at Union Cem. But a F-A-G volunteer has

also found a stone for them at Pleasant Grove Cem. We are still working to figure out how two stones came to be
