 | Partial Ships List from the Bannister The Bannister arrived in Philadelphia on 21 Oct 1754, from Amsterdam last of Cowes, John Doyle Captain. It appears Strassburger and Hinke misread the "i" in Johannes' signature. | 20 Oct 2018 | |
 | Headstone for Thomas Foster Strahorn Thomas, his second wife Rebecca Jane Kellogg, and their son Frank Kellog Strahorn are all buried in the same plot in Rosedale Cemetery, just west of downtown Los Angeles. We suspect the headstone was installed by his son Robert Edmund Strahorn after Robert became wealthy, since Thomas was a man of modest means. A smaller stone can be seen in front of the larger one, which reads, "T.F.S. Husband," possibly an earlier installation. No headstone is in evidence for Rebecca Jane Kellogg, but then she was not Robert Strahorn's mother. Robert's mother Rebecca Emmert has a substantial headstone in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania alongside her parents, possibly also paid for by Robert. Image courtesy Gary Zentmyer | 20 Oct 2018 | |

 | Christopher's House Located on a farm past the end of Blue Mountain Rd., Rouzerville, Pennsylvania. Your webmaster and his sister are pictured. Farm currently owned by Robert Monck. Image by Gary Zentmyer | 12 Oct 2018 | |
 | Pardoned by Gov. Thomas Mifflin Christopher was fined 10 pounds in 1795 for operating a Tippling House, essentially an unlicensed drinking establishment. At this time, Christopher was living on his farm in present-day Rouzerville, which was a scant 1/8 mile off the Great Wagon Road. Who can blame him for seizing the opportunity . . . maybe the Governor was a customer! Image by Gary Zentmyer | 12 Oct 2018 | |
 | Christopher's Farm, Washington Twp., Franklin Co., Pennsylvania This view shows Christopher's original holdings between Rouzerville and Penmar Pennsylvania, which were sold off over the years after his death in 1834. A small farm containing the house and cemetery still exists, it is owned by Robert Monck. It is leased out, so do not try and enter the farm without Robert's permission in advance.

 | Notice of Sheriff's Sale, 7 Jan 1789 This notice was published in the Pennsylvania Herald and General Advertiser. A Sheriff's Sale is a foreclosure sale, which was to be held 27 Jan 1789. Christopher subsequently moved into Washington Twp., Franklin Co., Pennsylvania Image by Gary Zentmyer | 12 Oct 2018 | |
 | Christopher's Farm, Cumberland Twp., York Co., Pennsylvania Christopher purchased and farmed this land, about 260 acres in present-day Arendtsville, Franklin Twp., Adams Co. for approximately a decade between 1779 and 1789. He and Jacob Arendt donated the parcel at the lower left in 1781 to the Lutheran and Reformed Churches for the purpose of a church, school, and cemetery. The farm was sold to Jacob Arendt, founder of Arendtsville, at a Sheriff's Sale (foreclosure) in 1789. Image by Gary Zentmyer | 12 Oct 2018 | |

 | Legate Genealogy From the Zentmyer Collection. Mailed by Joseph Brutsche b.1844 to 'Mrs. M. A. Brutsche' (his wife), in Pinconning, Michigan in 1899. (we have the envelope) May Augusta (LeGate) Brutsche was visiting her father, Sidney LeGate, who had moved to Pinconning with his second wife Catherine Turner. It is not clear why Joseph needed to send her own genealogy to her in Michigan, unless perhaps she had forgotten to bring it. |

 | Robert Strahorn - The Sphinx From the Zentmyer Collection. This cartoon depicts Robert as "The Sphinx," as he was known in the early 1900s. In his own hand, Robert (RES) describes, in the third person, how he got the moniker. The Harriman - Jim Hill fight refers to the struggle for control of the railroad business in the Pacific Northwest. $30mm in 1900 would be over $800mm today. | 11 Oct 2018 | |

 | Monroe St. Bridge Viaduct From the Zentmyer Collection. Robert built a railroad viaduct which crossed the Monroe St. Bridge and the Spokane River at the same place. This structure was completed in 1914, and was an engineering marvel to say the least. Robert was an early champion of the concept of grade separation, that is running railroad lines and automobile traffic at different elevations so as to avoid conflicts. | 11 Oct 2018 | |
 | Union Station in Spokane From the Zentmyer Collection. Robert financed and built Union Station on a site between the Spokane River and Trent Ave., now called Spokane Falls Blvd., completing construction in 1914. When it was torn down to make way for the Spokane World's Fair in 1974, demolition crews got more than they bargained for. The building was constructed to last for centuries, requiring the contractor to repeatedly ask for more money. | 11 Oct 2018 | |
 | Carrie's inscription to Mrs. Underwood 28 Jul 1914 at Old Faithful Inn From the Zentmyer Collection. This image is from our copy of Fifteen Thousand Miles by Stage.

 | Fifteen Thousand Miles by Stage From the Zentmyer Collection. First published in 1911, Carrie's account of the Strahorn's adventures exploring the Western States was more readable that Robert's autobiography, Ninety Years of Boyhood, which never found a publisher. | 11 Oct 2018 | |
 | Robert Strahorn and North Coast Railroad's McKeen Car From the Zentmyer Collection. This self-propelled McKeen car was one of two purchased by the North Coast Railroad in 1910. Robert is circled in yellow. McKeen cars had the distinctive "wind-splitter" pointed aerodynamic front end and rounded tail. The porthole windows were also a McKeen trademark. But the McKeen car had no reverse gear, so backing up required the operator to reconfigure the camshaft to a set of reverse cams, then re-start the motor in the opposite direction. | 11 Oct 2018 | |
 | Strahorn-Hutton-Evans Reconveyance From the Zentmyer Collection. Strahorn-Hutton-Evans was the livestock trading firm Robert formed late in his career. This document released a security interest in a herd of Texas cattle, and was executed by Robert Strahorn. | 11 Oct 2018 | |

 | New London Presbyterian Cemetery, Chester County, Pennsylvania - Old Section It is believed that Samuel Strayhorn and his father Robert Strayhorn are buried here. Samuel's sons Robert and Samuel and their wives are buried across the street in the new section of the cemetery. The cemetery provides no comprehensive listing of persons interred here in the older section, and many headstones have either disappeared or been buried. Robert was living nearby with his son Samuel at the time of his death, and Samuel in turn was living with his son Robert in the years prior to his death. Image by Gary Zentmyer | 9 Oct 2018 | |

 | Bernhard's farm in present-day Penn Township (formerly Warwick Township) Bernhard's original farm is mostly intact, and currently produces wheat, corn, and beef. The owners as of 2015, J. Marlin Myer and his brother Gerald, told me the farm has been in the Myer family since 1940. It is not clear what will happen going forward, as none of their offspring are interested in farming. They say the original farm house is made of square logs under the siding, and is contained within the left-hand portion of the farm house in the middle of the view. According to Cousin Ron, having two front doors was common for the period. Once a family had the ability to expand the house, the original door was used by the family, and the new door was for guests and opened into a parlor, where the family's best things were on display. The two ponds are fed by a perennial spring, which has flowed since the earliest written records. Native American artifacts have been found at the site, suggesting it was likely a pre-colonial settlement as well. Photo by Gary Zentmyer | 9 Oct 2018 | |
 | Notarial Register from Bischwiller for Centmeyer A recently discovered genealogical record from Bischwiller. The line under Jakob Centmeyer reads, 'Ackerer (farmer -Ed) in Roigheim, Württemberg.' The entry for his son Johann Bernhard reads, 'Lutheran, day laborer at the Keibelmühle (a mill -Ed) married on 16 Feb 1739 Maria Salome Roth.' The listing of their children reveals for the first time the death dates for Johann Jakob and Maria Salome. | 9 Oct 2018 | |
 | Bernhard's Headstone - Reverse Side Translation: "The Soul at Peace in This Chamber, Devoid of Life's Miseries, Rests Undisturbed by its Great Sorrows, of which the Earth is Full" One would conclude that Bernhard, later in life, was not without his share of troubles. Photo by Gary Zentmyer | 9 Oct 2018 | |
 | Plat Map of Bernhard's Farm in Warwick Township The farm was 'Patented' from Daniel Snider on 20 August 1766, which means that was when Bernhard came into title. It is likely however, that he worked the farm as early as 1754, when the birth of Görg was recorded at the White Oak Church there. Photo by Gary Zentmyer | 9 Oct 2018 | |
 | Headstone for Maria Salome Roth Zentmeyer, front side. Inscription reads, HIERUHT • IM • GOT • SALEME • ZIENTMEIERIN • IST • GESTORBEN • IM • JAHR • 1774 Translation: Here rests in God Saleme Zientmeierin ("in" at the end of a surname refers to the feminine) died in the year 1774 | 9 Oct 2018 | |
 | Headstone for Johann Bernhard Zentmeyer
Inscription: Here • Rests • In the Grave • Bernhart Zentmeier • Was Born • Date • 1 January in the Year 1707 • Died • Date • 9 March in the Year 1784 • Was 77 Years 2 Months 9 Days Old
Although spelled 'Bernhart Zentmeier' on his headstone, this spelling was rarely seen; the most common spelling in written records was (Johann) Bernhard Zentmeyer. 'Johann' was his Saints' name, which was also bestowed on all of his sons. Photo by Gary Zentmyer | 7 Oct 2018 | |
