• Name	Anna Margaretha Cramer  [1, 2, 3, 4]
  Born	21 Sep 1793	York County, Pennsylvania   [1, 2, 4, 5]
  Christened	3 Nov 1793	Saint Jacobs (Stone) Union Church, Codorus Township, York County, Pennsylvania   [1, 4]

  Buried	Shaffers Church Cemetery, Seven Valleys, York County, Pennsylvania   [4]
  Notes	Dean Cramer shows that she married Franz Schaffer, and that they were the parents of six daughters, Christina Anna (b. 1820), Mary Magdalena (b. 1824), Elizabeth and Margretha (twins, b. 1827 at both buried at Saint Jacobs Cemetery in York, PA), Rachel (b. 1829) and Catherina (b. 1831). Chuck Winter and Clarence Cramer both show her spouse as Francis Shaffer, an anglicized version of the name. Edith Beard Cannon's 1843 genealogy of the Cramer family, references a legal document referring to her as Margaret SHAFER (p. 67). Clarence Cramer writes that they lived in the vicinity of of Shaffer's Church in York County. Rosalie Sommer, however, shows she married Thomas Tayler, most probably in error.
