Third Generation


13. Elizabeth GRIESEMER was born about 1746. Not entirely sure this is Elizabeth Griesemer. Sylvester and Elizabeth Griesemer were sponsors for some baptisms. He did marry an Elizabeth. The only possible parent appears to be Wilhelm, and so I have linked her to him.

Elizabeth GRIESEMER and Sylvester Vesper NEUIN were married about 1770. Sylvester Vesper NEUIN11 was born on 27 December 1739 in Pennsylvania. He died on 24 October 1820 in Strausstown, Berks Co., PA. He was buried in Strausstown Union Cemetery, Berks Co., PA. He was a veteran of the Revolutionary War. Sylvester originally bought land in Oley Township in 1766 for his homestead. Land was adjacent to his father's land. He later moved to Tulpehocken Township, Berks Co., about 1779, and sold his Oley land to his father. Sylvester served during the Revolutionary War in Captain Shepler's 3rd Company, 6th Battalion, Berks Militia, as a private 7th class. He owned 276 acres in Tulpehocken Township, which was later sold after his death to settle a debt. Many of Sylvester's descendants still live in the area and prefer to spell their last name as Neuin.

Elizabeth GRIESEMER and Sylvester Vesper NEUIN had the following children:
