Notes |
- Surname also spelled Neitig. Clarence E. Cramer writes that "Barbara was born September 15, 1762, being a year the younger. Barbara married Helfer's War-intimate, Andrew FINFROCK, on November 10 or 16, 1785, by the Reverend Schroeder, and died January 14, 1841. Finfrock was born October 25, 1753, just a month younger than Helfer, and died June 30, 1836. Both are buried in The Stone Church Cemetery, a few feet from Helfer and Sophia, and a Revolutionary War Emblem adorns Finfrock's grave." (p. 52). They had at least two children who are buried at The Stone Church: John B. Finfrock, 21 Oct 1792-8 Sep 1863; and Christina Finfrock, 21 Dec 1800-17 Mar 1864. (p. 57).
Cramer later elaborated on Finfrock's war service (p. 59), transcribing information from H. J. Young's "In The American Revolution: A Source Book," MS., Red Series, page 165. "The Pension Papers of Andrew Finfrock of Codorus Township, Claim W-2770, state that the Pensioner was married November 10 of 16, 1785, to Barbara Neitig by the Reverend Mr. Schroeder; that on December 12, 1832, George Kreps and Helfer Craumer swore that they saw him in the Army as a soldier at Fort Lee, where he was detained as a guard until the fall of Fort Washington on November 16, 1776." The pension bureau granted Finfrock a pension on this affadavit. All Muster Rolls were lost or destroyed for that expedition.
