Anna Margaretha Schmidt

Notes:

Anna Margaretha (Schmidt), wife of Daniel Cramer, on the baptismal records of her daughter, Eva Elisabetha Cramer. Often shown as the daughter of Heinrich SCHMIDT.

However, Scott Michael Troutman, smtroutman@atlanticbb.net, in February 2005, had the following in his notes about the family of Heinrich and Anna Margaretha SCHMIDT: "Research of William S. CRAMER in Smith family file 2711, 1992, York Historical Society Library states that "Henry Smith emigrated aboard the ship Pennsylvania Merchant 11 Sept 1731 (Strassberger & Hicke pps 43,45,46.) List as Johan Hendrick Smit and Johan Hennrich Schmidt with Margarite Smit (his wife). Children also include a Rosina Smit.

Daughter Anna Margaretha is thought to be married to Daniel Kramer. Info in the Smith family file at York Historical Society give her birth as 1740, death 1803. However, she is listed in fathers will ca 1771 as married to Jacob Harbaugh, and NOT Daniel Kramer. IF Daniel Kramer died before 1771, or if Anna Margareta divorced and remarried, this might be possible. Otherwise, the information that Anna Margaretha Schmidt-the daughter of Heinrich Schmidt-was married to Daniel Kramer MAY BE IN ERROR."

Clarence E. Cramer writes that "The 1779 Tax Records show Helfer Cramer then owned a farm of 124 acres in Codorus Township (see page 12), and his mother is listed seperately as "Widow GRAMER" with the parental acres." (P. 52)

In September, 1815, Helfrig Cramer was the administrator of the Estate of Anna N. Cramer, widow, of Codorus Township. Tenet in $200. Inventory filed March 11, 1816. Account filed December 24, 1816, shows a balance of $9. 41 1/2.
