I am researching an Abraham Burkholder of Chanceford twp, York co, PA. According to the
1790census, there was an Abraham Burkholder, married, with 1 son and 2 daughters. He died
between June 9 and Aug 25, 1798 leaving Catharine, his wife, and children (but not
necessarily young children) Abraham, Elizabeth and Catharine. I believe son Abraham (b.
1772- d.1852) went married Catherine Isenhour, daughter of Leonard Isenhour who also was
from Chanceford. Abe moved to Ontario co, NY and raises a family with the following
names, Elizabeth, John, Leonard, Mary, Ann, Harriet, Lucinda and Cordelia. Curiously
enough he didnt name a son after himself or his father. Do believe your Anna Ziegler was
a sister of the older Abraham? Would be interested in any information you may have.
