David Wismer
ID # 9239, (1807-1890)
| Father | David Wismer (1769-1856) |
| Mother | Lydia Everett (1769-1856) |
| Birth | David Wismer was born on 22 December 1807 at Markham Township, Home District. |
| Marriage | He married Mary Tohman on 15 October 1826. |
| Death | He died on 8 September 1890 at Markham Township, York Co., at age 82. |
| Note | See Fretz, pages 299-301. Fretz's work is also echoed in Volume 2 of Ezra Eby's Biographical History of Waterloo Township, etc., 1896, and may be found on page 540. Fretz tells that David Wismer Jr. was born in Markham Township on 22 December, 1807, and that he died on September 8, 1890. Death reg. 019373-90 Markham Twp., York Co. David Wismer died Sept. 8th, 1890, in his 83rd year. Farmer. Christian. Cause of death old age. Physician and informant G. M. Farwell, M.D. A specific gravestone for David has not been found. He is almost certainly buried in Quantztown Cemetery in the town of Markham. Gravestones for David's parents, David Wismer Sr., and Lydia Everett have been found, photographed, and are clearly readable, though they both died in 1856. David's wife Mary died in 1883. My own photographs of Quantztown Cemetery date to 2019 and one worn stone is there that is probably that of Mary. A clear stone for David has not been found. A transcription of the cemetery is in my possession and this dates from 1989 and 1993 and this does not record a stone for David. |
