1. Rudolph Mauck was born before 1714 and died in 1750 in Augusta Co., VA.

The first record of Rudolph appears on 4 Aug 1730 in Conestoque, Lancaster Co., PA when Rudy was found guilty of assault and battery and fined one shilling (@1). Rudolph's last name is spelled Mauck, Mauk, and Mauks in this record.

Rudolph appears in the records of the Lutheran Minister John Casper Stoever when Stoever baptized Rudolph's daughter Elizabeth at Opequon 02 May 1736 (@2). The last name in this record is spelled Maag. Opequon referred to the area of current day Frederick Co., VA that borders Opequon Creek. It is possible Rudolph traveled to this area to have his daughter baptized, versus living there. Rudy and Mildred's births are estimated as being at least 17 years before the baptism of Elizabeth, however, the above court record in Lancaster Co., PA would indicate Rudy was probably born before 1714.

On 20 Jan 1744 Rudia Moak appears in the probate inventory of George Everts (@3). On 21 Apr 1746 Rudolph Maag appears as an appraiser for the estate of Abraham Strickler dec'd, in Augusta Co., VA (@4).

Rudolph purchased 400 acres on Mill Run in Augusta Co., VA 17 Jan 1749 (@5). This area later became Frederick Co., then Dunmore Co. in 1772 and was renamed Shenandoah in 1778. It was part of Orange Co., prior to the formation of Augusta Co.

On 22 Aug 1749 Nicholas Long, son of Philip Long, had 400 acres surveyed. The chain carriers were Jacob Rodecap and Rudy Mock (@7). This may have been Rudolph Sr., or it could have been Rudolph Jr.

Rudolph appears as an adjacent property owner to Jacob Roadcap who lived adjacent Mill Run, 16 Sep 1749 (@5). Rudolph Moick appears as an adjacent property owner to Lodowick Selser, son of Mathias Selser, in Augusta Co. 8 Aug 1750. Rudolph's property is described as being on "Massanuttin Run" (@5).

On 27 Nov 1750 Paul Lung [Long] was appointed administrator of Rudy Mauck, with Frederick Frailey and Peter Scholl sureties (@6). This established Rudolph's date of death. Rudolph's inventory was conducted by Mathias Selzer, Daniel Stover and Jacob Burnet 7 Mar 1751 (@6).

On 30 Mar 1755 Casper Taylor, assignee of Lewis Pence, assignee of Rudy Moick, assignee of Mildred Moick surveyed 200 acres on the South fork of the Shenandoah River by Mill Run adjacent Rudy Moick, Jacob Rodecap, Matthias Selser. The chain carriers were Rudy Moick and Paul Long. This deed states that Mildred was widowed, and had remarried and moved to Carolina (@7).

Rudolph married Mildred before 1735. Mildred was born before 1718 and died after 1755.

Children from this marriage were:

+ 2 M    i. Rudolph Mauck Jr. was born before 1733 and died in 1818 in Bourbon Co., KY.

+ 3 F    ii. Elisabetha Mauck was born on 1 Nov 1735 in VA.

+ 4 M    iii. Henry Mauck was born before 1745 and died about 1787 in Shenandoah Co., VA.

+ 5 M    iv. Daniel Mauck was born before 1745 and died in Jan 1803 in Shenandoah Co., VA.

2. Rudolph Mauck Jr. (Rudolph¹) was born before 1733 and died in 1818 in Bourbon Co., KY.

On 28 Aug 1754 Rudolph sold 400 acres in Frederick Co., VA that he had received by deed from Lord Fairfax. This land was originally in Augusta Co., and in the area that later became Page Co. (@1).

Rudolph is identified as an orphan of Rudolph Sr. when he appears in a Northern Neck land survey 30 Mar 1755. Rudy also served as a chain carrier for this survey (@2). This property was sold by Rudy to Casper Taylor.

Rudolph was probably the Rendy Mauk who is listed as an old defender of Frederick Co., VA 24 Sep 1758 in Cartmill's Shenandoah Valley Pioneers and their Descendants. The old defenders were a Colonial Regiment of home gurads or minutemen.

Rudolph is listed again as an adjacent property owner of Casper Taylor on the South River of the Shenandoah 4 Jul 1761, Rudolph's property being described as being on Mill Run (@3).

On 17 May 1766 Rudolph and Catharine sold 335 acres on the head of Fort Run at the foot of Fort Mountain, this land being patented to Rudolph 30 Aug 1763 (@4). On 18 Nov 1766 Rudolph received 163 acres on the north fork of the Shenandoah (@4).

Rudolph is listed as an adjacent property owner of John Taylor 3 Sep 1771 (@3), whose property is described as being on Mill Run and "Hawksbill".

Rudolph served as magistrate for Dunmore Co., VA in 1772 (@5).

Rudolph appears in the following Rockingham Co. Minute Book records: 27 Mar 1786 with his wife Catharine in a deed to John Ruddle; 27 Apr 1784 in the sale of corn; 27 Apr 1781 in the appraisal of an estate of Adam Nelson; 27 Sep 1782; 22 Mar 1784 Rudolph was appointed guardian of James Marshall Sr. (father of son Daniel's wife Agnes), orphan of James Marshall dec'd; 27 Apr 1784 when he served on a grand jury; and 27 Mar 1786 when the above deed to John Ruddle was proved (@6).

On 10 Jun 1783 Christian Maggot and his wife Mary sold 148 acres that they had purchased from Rudolph Mauk in 1754 (@1, @7 & @8). This tract lies on the Lee Hwy at Hamburg and was adjacent land purchased by Daniel Mauck in 1786 (@7). Assuming Rudolph was over 21 when he sold the land to the Maggots in 1754, his birth is estimated as being on or before 1733.

Rudolph appears in the personal property tax lists of Rockingham Co., VA in 1784 and 1787. He is listed as a delinquent tax payer for that year and as having gone to Kentucky.

Rudolph appears in the 1800 and 1810 census of Bourbon Co., KY.

Rudolph's will, dated 14 Apr 1817 and proved Oct 1818, appears in the probate records of Bourbon Co., KY (@9) and identifies his children as Andrew Mock, Jacob Mock, Joseph Mock, Rudolph Mock, William Mock, Catherine Suton, Barbara Kiplinger wife of Philip Kiplinger, Polly Burns and her children Betsy Burns, John Burns, Catherine Burns, William Burns and Polly Burns.

@1) Early Lutheran Baptisms and Marriages in Southeastern Pennsylvania, the Records of Rev. John Casper Stoever from 1730-1779

4. Henry Mauck (Rudolph¹) was born before 1745 and died about 1787 in Shenandoah Co., VA.

There is no proof that Henry is a brother of Daniel, however there are several things that indicate they are related.

Henry first appears in 1758 when he was listed as a soldier who served during the Fench and Indian War in the Old Home Guard (Minute Men) of Frederick Co., VA with Daniel Mauk, Richard Mauk, and Reudy Mauk (@1). Henry would have had to have been at least 13 (probably older), which provided his birthdate estimate.

On 30 Jan 1768 Henry appears as a chain carrier in the survey of 118 acres on the South fork of the Shenandoah River. This land was owned by David Maggot and adjacent Philip and Nicholas Long. On the same day Henry had 160 acres surveyed on the drains of the South fork of the Shenandoah River, adjacent his own land and that of Daniel Mauck, who was a chain carrier in this survey (@2). Of interest is Philip and Nicholas Long had 400 acres surveyed 22 Aug 1749 and one of the chain carriers was Rudy Mock. Paul Long was appointed administrator of Rudolph Mauck Sr.'s estate in 1750. Paul and Nicholas Long were the children of Philip Long (@3).

Also of interest is the author of "The Maggert Family", Kenneth Maggert, indicates in his book that David Maggott was married to Margaret Mauck about 1745, probably a daughter of Henry Mauck. Kenneth relates that Margaret was born abt. 1723 and died abt. 1798. Henry was a chain carrier for David Maggott in the above survey, and chain carriers tended to be related to the person for whom the land was being surveyed, as they worked for free. Additionally, Henry was administrator of the will of David Magget, dated 23 Dec 1770 and proven 23 May 1775 in Shenandoah Co., VA. Kenneth's source for this information is not known, nor is his source that Margaret's maiden name was Mauck. Assuming she was a Mauck, which is possible given David Magget's ties to Henry Mauck in the deeds and probates, Margaret was probably a contemporary of Henry and not his daughter, possibly a sister. Henry's daughters are named in Henry's Intestate Settlement, which would have identified her as a daughter as she was living at the time.

Henry Mauck appears in the Personal Property Tax lists of Shenandoah Co., VA when they started in 1782 and is in the lists yearly through 1787. Starting in 1788 his wife Mary appears yearly through 1792. Many of these years Henry and then Mary are adjacent Daniel Mauck. The lists are alphabetical by first letter of the last name, not in order of residence visited. In the 1785 tax list Henry had 10 people listed at his residence, althought some of these may have been children or family of his second wife.

In a Shenandoah Co. land survey 01 Nov 1776 (@4) Henry is listed as an adjacent land owner on property on the South River of the Shenandoah. Daniel Mauk is also listed adjacent Henry.

In a Northern Neck Land Grant survey dated 10 Jun 1779 (@4) Henry had 160 acres on the South River of the Shenandoah surveyed. Daniel Mauk is listed as an adjacent land owner.

In another Shenandoah Co. deed dated 23 Jun 1777 (@5) Henry and Daniel are listed as adjacent land owners to James Campbell. Campbell's property is described as being on the southeast side of the South river of the Shenandoah.

In a Northern Neck Land Grant dated 31 Aug 1779 (@4) John Beaver, heir at law of Conrad Beaver dec'd deeded one third of 99 1/2 acres on Pass Run in Shenandoah Co., VA to Mary Mauk, late widow of Conrad Beaver. After Mary's death this land was to be given back to John Beaver. This would indicate that Mary married Henry prior to 31 Aug 1779 and Henry was her 2nd marriage.

There is a possibility that Mary was Henry's 2nd marriage. In John Wayland's History of Shenandoah Co., VA Henry and Elizabeth Mauck are shown as the parents of Christina. The book's source for this is unknown. Henry and Elizabeth's marriage is assumed to have been prior to the birth of their oldest daughter, Susannah, which provided the estimate for their marriage date.

Mary, her first marriage and husband Conrad, her parents, and their children are detailed in the History and Genealogy of the Bieber, Beaver, Biever, Beeber Family by the Reverend I.M. Beaver in 1939. This book identifies Mary's father as Hans Kneisley of Cocalico Twp., Lancaster Co., PA and states Hans's Will probated in 1757 Lancaster Co., PA identifies his daughter as Mary, wife of Conrad Beaver. According to this book, Michael Beaver who married Henry's daughters Susan and then Magdalene was the son of Conrad and Mary. It also states that Susan and Magdalene were twins. Another son, Christian Beaver, married Catharine Mauck, daughter of Daniel Mauck and Barbara Harnsberger. Their daughter Mary married Abraham Mauck, also a son of Daniel Mauck and Barbara Harnsberger. Mary's birthdate was estimated assuming she was over 17 when married.

In a Shenandoah Co., VA probate dated 29 Jun 1788 Henry is listed as deceased and his personal property is appraised (@6). Daniel Mauk is listed in this appraisal as having posted a bond for Henry's estate. Michael Beaver is indicated as Henry's executor.

The sale of Henry's property was 10 Jun 1793 (@5) and named his widow as Mary. In an Estate Settlement dated 10 Sep 1796 money from Henry's estate was paid to his daughters Christina, Anna, Molly, Sukey, and Elizabeth (@6). This last probate indicates Henry's estate was broken into 5 equal shares for the 5 daughters, mentions money paid to Daniel Mauk, and identifies Henry's wife as Mary. Some researchers have theorized that Henry may have had sons, however, had he had living sons they would have appeared in the Estate Settlement as all heirs are normally listed in Estate Settlements, which were conducted by the court and attempted to identify all living children.

In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed dated 13 Apr 1795 (@9) Henry's heirs, Susannah wife of Michael Beaver, Elizabeth wife of Valentine Trickler, Christina, Magdalena, and Anna sold Henry's land consisting of 65 acres on the east side of Mill Run that was originally purchased by Henry 4 Oct 1770, and an additional 61 acres lying on the drains of the South River of the Shenandoah that was originally received by Henry from Daniel Mauck 26 May 1785.

Henry married Elizabeth before 1770.

Children from this marriage were:

+ 15 F    i. Elizabeth Mauck was born before 1770.

+ 16 F    ii. Christina Mauck was born on 25 Sep 1772 in VA.

+ 17 F    iii. Susannah Mauck was born in 1773 and died in 1797-1799 in VA at age 24.

+ 18 F    iv. Magdalena "Molly" Mauck was born in 1773, died in 1827 in Ross Co., OH at age 54, and was buried in Beaver Cemetery, Pennyroial Hill, Ross Co., OH.

+ 19 F    v. Anna Mauck .

Henry next married Mary Beaver-Kneisley, daughter of Hans Kneisley, before Aug 1779. Mary was born about 1738 and died after 1792.

5. Daniel Mauck (Rudolph¹) was born before 1745 and died in Jan 1803 in Shenandoah Co., VA.

Daniel first appears in 1758 when he was listed as a soldier who served during the French and Indian War in the Old Home Guard (Minute Men) of Frederick Co., VA with Henry Mauk, Richard Mauk, and Reudy Mauk (@1). Daniel's year of birth was estimated assuming he was over 13 when he served.

Daniel purchased 200 acres on a knoll by Bullock Run in Culpeper Co., VA 19 Aug 1762 (@2). Daniel sold this land, further described as being in Brumfield Parish in the great fork of the Rappahannock river, 20 Aug 1762 (@3). Daniel was described as being "of Frederick Co., VA".

Daniel appears when his 283 acres of land on Little Run, a drain of the south fork of the Shenandoah River, in Frederick Co., VA was surveyed 02 Jan 1764 (@4). One of the chain carriers was a Mathias Mauk. In the Personal Property Tax lists of Culpeper Co. there is a Mathias Mauck from 1782-1790. In 1790 this Mathias was visited the same day as Abraham Mauck, Daniel and Barbara's son. This was the first year Abraham appears in the tax lists, and the last year Mathias appears in them. Mathias moved on to Wilkes Co., GA, where he appears in the tax list of 1793. Mathias was a contemporary of Daniel, and may have been his brother. Chain carriers were typically young, and members of the family as their services were free.

Daniel purchased 283 acres on the South River of the Shenandoah 01 Mar 1765 (@4). This land was adjacent Martin Coffman, Christian Maggot, Casper Snider, and Jacob Burner. Christian Maggot had purchased his land from Rudolph Mauck Jr. This is further confirmed in another Northern Neck Land Grant 08 Aug 1750 where Martin Coffman is listed adjacent Rudy Moick (@4).

There is no direct proof identifying Daniel Mauck as a son of Rudolph Mauck Sr., however the above deed would indicate that he probably was.

Daniel witnessed a survey of 160 acres in this same area for Henry Mauk 30 Jan 1768 (@4). Henry was likely Daniel's brother.

Daniel's first wife, Barbara Harnsberger, is identified in a Culpeper Co., VA (@5) deed when she and Daniel sold land on the Robinson Fork in Culpeper Co., VA that Barbara had inherited from her grandfather, John Harnsberger, who's will was dated 15 Jan 1759 and proved 20 May 1760 (@6). This Will identifies Barbara as the daughter of John's son Stephen Harnsberger. Barbara's year of birth is estimated as being at least 17 years before the birth of her first child. Her marriage to Daniel is estimated as being before the birth of her first child. Barbara's death date and the date of Daniel's 2nd marriage, to Rebecca, are estimated between the years of the birth of Daniel and Barbara's last child Barbara who was born in 1774, and the birth of Daniel and Rebecca's first child David, who was born in 1778.

On 09 Apr 1775 Daniel is listed adjacent James Campbell in the survey of Campbell's 340 acres on the SE side of the South fork of the Shenandoah river (@4).

Daniel is listed in the rent rolls of Dunmore Co., VA in 1774-1776.

Daniel purchased 200 acres on the south side of Robinson river at the mouth of Quaker Run in Culpeper Co., VA 21 Apr 1783 (@7).

On 26 May 1785 Daniel and "Paggey" Mauk "of Shenandoah Co., VA" leased 61 acres of his 283 acres that were granted to him 01 Mar 1765, on the drains of the south fork of the Shenandoah river in Shenandoah Co. Daniel leased this 61 acres to Henry Mauk for 5 schillings (@8). In another deed 26 May 1785 for the same property involving the lease to Henry Mauk, Daniel's wife is listed as "Margaret" and signed "Peggy" (@9).

On 29 Mar 1786 Daniel purchased 86 acres on the south fork of the Shenandoah river from John and Elizabeth Koontz (@10). This land was later sold by Daniel's son Joseph and two small lots were set aside for the Mill Creek Baptist Church. Many of the descendant's of Daniel Mauck belonged to this church, which still stands to this day as an historical landmark. Prior to the building of the church, Daniel's home was used by the church as a meeting place (@26). John Koontz was the minister of this congregation.

Daniel purchased another 2 1/3 acres on the Robinson river on the mouth of Quaker Run, in Culpeper Co., VA 13 Jun 1789 (@11). Daniel was issued a grant to build a mill on the Robinson river (@12).

Rebecca first appears with Daniel 20 Apr 1795 in a Madison Co., VA deed where they sold land on the waters of Robinson river (@13). Madison Co. was formed from Culpeper Co. in 1792. Daniel and Rebecca sold 102 acres of their land in Madison Co. 25 Jun 1795 (@14). Daniel appears in a release of mortgage in Madison Co., VA 26 Apr 1798 (@15). In the book Homes of Madison Co., VA Daniel Mauck's land in Madison Co. is described as being in Criglersville on route 672 overlooking the Robinson River.

Daniel was appointed administrator of the personal property of Christian Beaver dec'd 26 Jan 1797 (@16). Christian was the husband of Daniel's daughter Catharine.

Daniel purchased 47 1/4 acres on the waters of Pass Run 13 Jun 1797 (@17) and 430 1/2 acres of land on the south fork of the Shenandoah river in Shenandoah Co., VA 25 Oct 1798 (@18). Daniel and Rebecca sold an additional 102 acres in Madison Co., VA 22 Oct 1799 (@19).

In Gleanings from Newspapers of Page Co., VA by Judith Campbell, in the Page News and Courier 15 Jul 1938 there is an article describing a contract 17 Mar 1798 to build the first road thru Thornton's Gap, which was the first wagon road thru the Blue Ridge Mountains. Daniel Mauk is listed as a trustee.

Daniel's Will was dated 06 Oct 1802 and proved 10 Jan 1803 (@20), a codicil below the Will was dated 02 Jan 1803, and identifies his wife Rebecca and children Abraham, David, Joseph, Robert, Daniel, Jacob, Catharine, Elizabeth, Maria, Barbara, and Anna. Daniel indicated he was a farmer from the Mill Run Settlement, Shenandoah Co., VA.

Rebecca's Will was dated 05 Jan 1805 and proved 01 Mar 1805 (@21) and identifies her sons as Robert, Daniel, and Jacob.

Daniel's property in Shenandoah Co., VA was divided up into 5 plantations 17 Mar 1807 (@22). This land was sold 10 Oct 1807 and the deed (@23) identifies Daniel's children and the spouses of the children that were married: Abraham & Mary Mauk, Catherine Beaver, Abraham & Elizabeth Pence, George & Mary Pence, John and Barbara Brubaker, David and Sarah Mauk, Joseph & Elizabeth Mauk, Jonas & Ann Ruffner, Robert Mauk, Jacob Mauk, and Daniel Mauk. Daniel's daughters are again listed by their married names when they released their dower rights for this land. On 12 Oct 1807 a plat was made of the division of Daniel's land (@24). The land was surveyed 18 Mar 1807 and describes the land as being adjacent Jeremie's Run on the south fork of the Shenandoah river.

The accounts of the sale of the estate of Rebecca was presented to the court by Robert Mauck 20 Jun 1807 (@25).

Daniel appears in the personal property tax lists of Shenandoah Co., VA yearly from 1782 thru 1802. Rebecca appears in the personal property tax lists of Shenandoah Co., VA in 1803 and 1804. The lists were kept yearly from 1782 thru 1850 (minus 1808).

The location of the Mauck Mill along the Shenandoah River is depicted in a Page Co., VA road book showing a drawing of the proposed road leading to the Mill 26 Jul 1847 (@27). AT the time of this road proposal the land was owned by Joel Mauck, son of Abraham, son of Daniel. The remnants of the Mill are still in place as of 1996 and accessible via the road leading to the old White House from route 211.

Joseph appears in the 1810 census of Shenandoah Co., VA, and the 1820, 1830, 1840, and 1850 census of Gallia Co., OH. The census provided their birth years. There is a Joseph Mouk that appears in the 1820 census of Addison Twp., Gallia Co., OH. This may be this Joseph, or he may have returned to Shenandoah Co., VA where a Joseph appears in the 1820 census along with David and Joseph Mauck. Joseph was supposed to have moved from Shenandoah Co. before 1820 (see below).

Joseph's Will was dated 21 Apr 1847 and was proved 28 Apr 1856 in Meigs Co., OH (@17). His Will names his wife Elizabeth and all of his children and divides his property in Gallia and Meigs counties along the Ohio river to his heirs. The Will also identifies some of this property as being in Addison Twp. Attached to this Will is a codicil dated 21 Feb 1856 that also identifies his children and relates that his wife and several children had died since he wrote his Will, then divides his property amongst the remaining heirs.

Elizabeth's obituary appears in the Gallipolis Journal of Gallia Co., OH 05 Jul 1855. It relates that Elizabeth was the wife of Joseph Mauck of Addison Twp., that she was born in Northumberland Co., VA and orphaned at the age of 7, married Joseph in 1802 in Page Co.

Joseph and Elizabeth are buried together in the Gravel Hill Cemetery, Cheshire Twp., Gallia Co., OH. Their headstones provided their year of death.

The complete birth and death dates, and locations, for Joseph and Elizabeth, and Elizabeth's parents, were obtained from the genealogy records of Dr. Joseph William Mauck, who was descended from Joseph. Dr. Mauck conducted his genealogy research in the 1920's and 1930's and his work has been found to very thorough. His source for Joseph's birth date is not known. Dr. Mauck conducted extensive genealogy research on the descendant's of Joseph Mauck and Elizabeth Whaley. For further on Dr. Mauck, see his family later in this work.

Dr. Mauck stated that Joseph was a farmer and miller. Joseph acquired 100 acres on the Miami river in 1812, and deeded his Virginia farms to his brother-in-law, John Brubaker. In 1814 he acquired his first land in Gallia Co., and built a home of logs adjacent the river bank below Chesire Village. In 1825 he built a brick house on his property. This home is located on Marietta Road.

27. Robert Mauck (Daniel⁵, Rudolph¹) was born on 8 May 1784 in VA and died on 15 Jul 1834 in OH at age 50.

Robert appears in the Shenandoah Co., VA Wills of his father, Daniel Mauck, dated 06 Oct 1802 and proved 10 Jan 1803 (@1), and his mother Rebecca dated 05 Jan 1805 and proved 01 Mar 1805 (@2). His mother appointed him guardian of his brothers Daniel and Jacob.

Robert appears in the division of Daniel's land on the south fork of the Shenandoah River 10 Oct 1807 (@3). On 24 Dec 1808 Robert sold land in Culpeper Co., VA that he had inherited from his father (@4).

The family bible of Robert Mauck is in the possession of Jack Childers of Fenwick Island, Delaware. The bible records provided Robert and Esther's birthdates, death dates, both of Robert's marriages, Christina's death date, and information on his children. The date of Robert's marriage to Christina Ruffner (29 May 1806) conflicts with that of the Shenandoah Co. marriage records (29 Mar 1806). Because the Shenandoah Co. marriage record date was obtained from a book of the abstracted marriage records versus the original, the bible record date was used.

The genealogy records of Dr. Joseph William Mauck, who was descended from Robert's brother Joseph provided a birth date for Robert of 8 May 1782. The above Bible records stated a birth date of 8 May 1784. Dr. Mauck conducted his genealogy research in the 1920's and 1930's and his work has been found to very thorough. His source for Robert's birth date is not known, so the Bible record was used for this work.

Robert's marriage to Christina Ruffner 29 Mar 1806, and his 2nd marriage to Christina's sister Esther 07 Jan 1811, is recorded in the Shenandoah Co., VA marriage records. Both records identify Christina and Esther's father as Peter Ruffner.

Robert witnessed a Shenandoah Co., VA deed dated Dec 1810 (@5) where Peter Ruffner, wife Elizabeth, and Jonas Ruffner and wife Anna sold land to Isaac Ruffner. Anna was Robert's sister. In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed recorded 9 Mar 1807 (@6) Peter Ruffner's wife Elizabeth is identified as the daughter of Esther Burner. Peter Ruffner is identified as a son of Peter and Mary Ruffner by his father's Will dated 15 Jan 1778 and proved 28 May 1778 (@7). Peter's wife, Elizabeth Burner, is identified in her father Jacob's Will dated 5 Apr 1785 and proved 30 Dec 1790 (@8). A codicil attached to this Will was dated 19 Jul 1790, establishing Jacob's death year as 1790.

In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed dated 18 Sep 1818 (@9) Robert and Esther sold Lot #20 in Luray. They had purchased this land 09 May 1818 (@10). Robert appears in the additonal Shenandoah Co. deeds: on 30 Sep 1820 he purchased 141 acres between the south fork of the Shenandoah River and Fort Mountain (@11), 17 Jun 1820 when he purchased Lot #6 in Luray (@12), on 1 Mar 1821 Robert appears in a deed of trust (@13), on on 31 Mar 1821 Robert and Esther sold land on the south side of Luray on the road to New Market (@14) that they originally received from Esther's brother Isaac Ruffner, on 5 Apr 1821 Robert and Esther purchased land in Luray (@15) which they sold 16 & 18 Apr 1821, on 11 Nov 1822 Robert and Esther sold quit rents and slaves they had inherited from Esther's mother Elizabeth (@16), on 9 Sep 1824 Robert sold personal property to pay a debt with the assistance of John Mauck who acted as an executor (@17), and on 6 Mar 1824 Robert and Esther sold 141 acres between the south fork of the Shenandoah River and Fort Mtn.(@18).

Robert appears yearly in the Personal Property Tax lists of Shenandoah Co., VA starting in 1805 and continuing through 1824. He is not in the list in 1825 and appears for the last time in 1826, which would indicate he moved to Ohio about 1826/1827.

Robert appears in the records of the Mill Creek Baptist Church in Page Co., VA in 1825 (@19).

Robert appears in the 1810 and 1820 census of Shenandoah Co., VA and the 1830 census of Gallia Co., OH. Esther appears in the 1840 census and the 1850 census of Gallia Co., OH with her daughter Melissa.

Esther's is buried in the Gravel Hill Cemetery, Chesire Twp., Gallia Co., OH. Her headstone provided her death date.

28. Anna Mauck (Daniel⁵, Rudolph¹) was born in 1780-1785 and died before May 1829.

Anna appears in the Shenandoah Co., VA Will of her father, Daniel Mauck, dated 06 Oct 1802 and proved 10 Jan 1803 (@1). Ann appears in the division of Daniel's land on the south fork of the Shenandoah River 10 Oct 1807 (@2). Ann is identified as the wife of Jonas Ruffner.

Anna's marriage to Jonas 13 Jun 1803 appears in the Shenandoah Co., VA marriage records. Jonas is indicated as Anna's ward, and Anna is identified as the daughter of Daniel.

In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed dated Dec 1810 (@3) Peter Ruffner, wife Elizabeth, and Jonas Ruffner and wife Anna sold land to Isaac Ruffner. This deed was witnessed by Anna's brother, Robert. In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed recorded 9 Mar 1807 (@4) Peter Ruffner's wife Elizabeth is identified as the daughter of Esther Burner. Peter Ruffner is identified as a son of Peter and Mary Ruffner by his father's Will dated 15 Jan 1778 and proved 28 May 1778 (@5). Peter's wife, Elizabeth Burner, is identified in her father Jacob's Will dated 5 Apr 1785 and proved 30 Dec 1790 (@6). A codicil attached to this Will was dated 19 Jul 1790, establishing Jacob's death year as 1790.

In a Shenandoah Co., VA deed dated 1 Sep 1807 (@7) Jonas received 550 acres on both sides of Hawksbill Creek from his father Peter. Jonas and Anna sold part of this land 3 Apr 1813 (@7), which was described as being on the south side of the main road leading from the White House to Thornton's Gap. This land is again mentioned in a Shenandoah Co. deed dated July 1811 (@8) that states Peter Ruffner was deceased. More of this land was sold by Jonas and Anna 03 Apr 1813 (@9) and Dec 1810 @10).

Jonas appears in the 1810, 1820 and 1830 census of Shenandoah Co., VA. His and Anna's birth dates were estimated from the 1830 census, which indicated Jonas as 50-60 years (b. 1770-1780) and the oldest female in his household as 40-50 years (b. 1780-1790. Anna's birth was estimated also assuming she was at least 17 when married.

A Short History of Page Co., VA by Harry Strickler quotes Page Co., VA court records that state Jonas died in 1839 and is buried with his wife Elizabeth (2nd wife), several hundred yards north of the old Ruffner home in Page Co. The book quotes another court record 23 Aug 1831 that states Jonas was appointed guardian of his infant children below 14 years of age Benjamin F., Mary Ann, Joseph and above 14 years old Rebecca, John, and Peter. This book identifies Jonas as the son of Peter Ruffner Jr. and states his children alive in 1839 were Robert, Benjamin F., Peter, Caroline E., William L., Mark, Mary Ann, Joseph, Daniel, "and one other". It's assumed these other children were from his second marriage to Elizabeth.

Jonas married Elizabeth Sperry 9 May 1829 in Shenandoah Co., VA. It is assumed, based on this date and the above where Jonas was appointed guardian of his children in 1831, that Anna died before 9 May 1829.

Jonas died intestate. The administrators of his estate were appointed 19 May 1840 (@11) and his estate was sold 5 Dec 1839 (@12 & yes, the dates are correct).

In a Page Co., VA deed dated 4 Mar 1840 (@13) Jonas's Page Co. land was divided amongst Robert Ruffner, Benjamin F. Ruffner and his wife Rebecca Ann, Peter Ruffner, Caroline E. Ruffner, William L. Ruffner, Mark Ruffner, Mary Ann Ruffner, Joseph Ruffner, and Daniel Ruffner (Harrison Ruffner assignee).

75. Henry W. Mauck (David²⁵, Daniel⁵, Rudolph¹) was born on 2 Dec 1801 in Shenandoah Co., VA and died on 4 Apr 1875 in Whitehouse, Page Co., VA at age 73.

Henry's marriage to Margaret appears in the Shenandoah Co., VA marriage records. The record gives her last name as Eleshite and indicates she was the daughter of John.

Henry appears yearly in the personal property tax lists of Shenandoah Co. from 1828 thru 1831, then in Page Co., which was formed from Shenandoah Co. in 1832, from 1832 thru 1850.

In a Page Co., VA deed (@1) dated Jun 1833 Henry W. sold land on the drains of Hawksbill Creek that he had inherited from his mother Sally Stroup, who had inherited the land from her father William Stroup. Henry also appears in a deed of trust 20 Jan 1847 (@2) where he put up personal property as collateral on money he owed.

Henry posted the Page Co., VA marriage bond for the marriage of Mary Mauck to John Bixler 3 Sep 1833. Of interest is this Mary was the daughter of David Mock and Mary Butler, and does not appear to be directly related to Henry.

Margaret died intestate and a Page Co., VA probate (@3) identifies the guardian of her children as Emmanuel Grove. Her children are identified in 5 separate probates (@4) where they received money Margaret had inherited from her father, John C. Aleshire. John C. Aleshire appears in the 1840 census of Page Co., VA as a Revolutionary War veteran age 84 years living with Henry Mauck. In the WPA Historical Inventory of Page Co., VA, John Conrad Elshite's wife is identified as Susanna, from a deed where John sold 50 acres in Shenandoah Co. to Marcus Grove 10 Jun 1793. It is assumed that Susanna was probably Margaret's mother, but not proven. Of interest is part of Marcus Grove's property was purchased by the above John Bixler who married Mary Mauck, and this land is where Mary is buried along with David and Mary Mock.

The Will of John C. Aleshire (@5) dated 19 Nov 1845 and proved 25 May 1847 identifies his daughter as Peggy, dec'd, wife of Henry Mauck, and states that the money inherited by Peggy's children was not to be given to Henry Mauck.

On 10 Jun 1848 James H. Mauck, Isaac C. Mauck and John P. Mauck, children of Henry Mauck, chose Emmanuel Grove as their guardian (@6).

Henry's second marriage, to Mary Ann Glenn, is reported in the marriage records of Page Co., VA. The bondsman was George D. Glenn. George D. Glenn married Nancy Grove 11 Jun 1821 in Shenandoah Co., VA. Their marriage record identified Nancy as the daughter of David and Anna. George D. Glenn is identified as the son of John Glenn in John's Shenandoah Co., VA will dated 31 Jan 1825 and proved 12 Sep 1825 (@7). This will also states John had several small children at home, but does not name them. It is believed one of these children was Mary Ann Glenn, although this cannot be proven. Mary was probably too old to be a daughter of George D. Glenn, who appears in the 1850 census of Page Co., VA age 53 b. PA with Nancy age 53 b. VA. In this census George Glenn is adjacent John Bixler and Polly Mauck, whose marriage bond Henry posted.

Henry's wife Mary appears in the 1850 Federal Census Mortality Schedules as having died of fever in June 1850. In the 1850 census Henry appears absent wife Mary. With him was a daughter, Mary, 10 days old.

Henry's marriage to Rebecca is estimated based on the death record of his son Daniel, who was born Jul 1856.

Henry appears in the 1850 census of Page Co., VA. Henry and Rebecca appear in the 1860 and 1870 census of Page Co., VA, which provided her birth info. Rebecca appears in the 1850 census of Page Co., VA with her parents, George and Harriet Ambrose.

Henry's death was reported by Rebecca in Page Co., VA. His cause of death was not given. The death record provided his birth and death info, occupation and his father's name as David. Henry also appears in the family bible of Daniel Koontz, who married Henry's sister Elizabeth. The birth date provided by the bible, 02 Dec 1801, was used instead of the date of birth provided by the death record (30 Apr 1804) as it was probably a more accurate date. This bible record also identifies his parents as David Mauck and Sally Stroup. Henry's birthdate of 02 Dec 1801 was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Henry's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby.

In Page Co., VA on 18 Aug 1852 Mary C. Hollingsworth was about to marry Charles W. Webster, and Henry verified that she had attained the age of 21 years. This marriage may have not taken place, as the marriage and marriage bond have not been located.

Henry's death date also appears in the records of the Mill Creek Baptist Church. Henry is listed as a member in these records (@8).

Rebecca appears in the 1880 census of Page Co., VA in the home of their son George. Her parents are listed as both being born in VA. Rebecca appears in the 1900 census of Page Co., VA, boarding with Frank Rothgeb. The census provided her birth data.

Rebecca's birthdate was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Rebecca's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W.

The Will also indicates Rebecca's brother Henry Mauck married Margaret Aleshire, Henry Aleshire's sister.

Henry and Rebecca appear in the 1850 and 1860 census of Cumberland Co., IL. This census provided Henry's birth data.

@1) Page Co., VA Will Book C p.179

On 25 Nov 1833 Daniel Koontz posted the Page Co., VA marriage bond for the marriage of Isaac Huffman to Sarah Mauck. Sarah was the daughter of David Mock and Mary Butler. For further, see her notes under the family of David Mock and Mary Butler.

Elizabeth is also identified as a daughter of David and Sally, and wife of Daniel Koontz, by the bible of Daniel Koontz (@1), which also provided Daniel's birth and death data, and Elizabeth's birth data. Elizabeth's birthdate was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Elizabeth's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby.

Daniel and Elizabeth appear together in the 1860 census of Page Co., VA.

Daniel and Elizabeth are buried alongside each other in the Koontz Cemetery near Alma, Page Co., VA. Their headstones provided their birth and death dates. In the unpublished tombstone inscriptions of Dr. John Walter Wayland, in the possession of the Handley Library in Winchester, VA, John Koontz is indicated as being buried in this same cemetery. Wayland visited this cemetery in 1932. John Koontz's headstone is currently in the Seekford Cemetery, near Alma, Page Co., VA. The headstone provided John Koontz's death date of 25 Apr 1832. Wayland's records indicate John was a Baptist Preacher that was nearly 100 years old at the time of his death. John Koontz's birth 26 Mar 1739 was obtained from the records of the Lutheran Minister, Reverend John Casper Stoever (@2). The birth record identifies his father as John Koontz, and the sponsors were Casper Stoever, Joacob Neuschwanger and Maria Baumann. John was baptized 29 Apr 1739. Both the birth and baptism occurred in the Opequon area, which later became part of Frederick Co.

The Reverend John Koontz, a Baptist minister, lived in the area of Front Royal and in 1770 traveled to the area of Mill Creek, where his brother George lived, and began to preach the gospel. John appears extensively in the church records of the Mill Creek Baptist church, many of which were kept by him.

Daniel is identified as a son of David Mauck and Sally by the family bible of Daniel Koontz, who married Daniel's sister Elizabeth. It also provided his birth date. Daniel's birthdate was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Daniel's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby.

Daniel is probably the Daniel Mauck that appears yearly in the personal property tax lists of Shenandoah Co., VA from 1829 thru 1831, and then in Page Co., VA, which was formed from Shenandoah Co. in 1832, from 1832 thru 1834.

80. Martha Mauck (David²⁵, Daniel⁵, Rudolph¹) was born on 4 Mar 1808 in Shenandoah Co., VA and died on 22 Sep 1883 at age 75.

Martha is identified as a child of David Mauck and Sally by the family bible of Daniel Koontz, who married Martha's sister Elizabeth. It also provided her birth date and the fact she was a twin to Mary.

Martha's birth and death dates were also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby. The bible also provided Martha's marriage information, her second marriage to Lewis Seitz 16 Jan 1849, and all of Jonas Hershberger's information, including his parents.

The marriage of Jonas's parents, Jacob Hershberger and Mary Grove, daughter of Christian Grove and Ann Roads, occurred 28 Sep 1790 by Rev. John Koontz, a Baptist preacher. The marriage bond was posted 11 Sep 1790 by Abram Brubaker.

Jacob'sbirthdate was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Jacob's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby.

Jacob is probably the Jacob Mauck that appears in the personal property tax lists of Page Co., VA in 1833. This is the only year he appears in the lists.


@1) Page Co., VA Deed Book #A p.342

82. Sarah Mauck (David²⁵, Daniel⁵, Rudolph¹) was born on 15 Apr 1812 in Shenandoah Co., VA, died on 20 May 1887 in Page Co., VA at age 75, and was buried in T.C. Heiston Cemetery, Luray, Page Co., VA.

In a Page Co., VA deed dated 08 Jun 1833 Sally Mauck sold land on the drains of Hawksbill creek (@1) that she had inherited from her mother, Sally Stroup, who had inherited it from her father, William Stroup.

Sally is identified as a daughter of David Mauck and Sally by the family bible of Daniel Koontz, who married Sally's sister Elizabeth. It also provided her birth date. Sally's birthdate was also found in the family bible of Jonas Hershberger, who married Martha Mauck, Sally's sister. In May 1996 this bible was in the possession of Martha's descendant Susan W. Crosby.

Sarah's marriage to Isaac 25 Nov 1833 was obtained from the Page Co., VA marriage records. The bondsman was Daniel Koontz, the same Daniel Koontz who provided Sally's birthdate in his bible, and who married Sally's sister Elizabeth Mauck.

Isaac and Sarah appear in the 1870 and 1880 census of Page Co., VA. The 1880 census indicates their parents were born in Virginia.

Isaac's will was dated 3 Apr 1879 and proven 26 Dec 1881 and identifies his wife as Sarah and his children (@2).

Tombstone Inscriptions of Page Co., VA by Duane Borden makes reference to the book Old Homes of Page Co., VA by Jennie Kerkhoff, which describes Isaac's home as a Mansion been built during the Civil War and that Isaac came from Rockingham Co., VA. The Mansion was inherited by Isaac's daughter Ellen, after his death. Isaac's property is described as having extended from Hamburg to The Shawnee Farm, which was located several miles northwest of Luray. Isaac and Sarah are buried on this farm, and their headstones provided their birth and death dates, including Isaac's as 24 Oct 1881. The birthdate on Sarah's headstone provided the same birthdate as the Koontz and Hershberger bibles.

Isaac's obituary appears in the Page News & Courier 27 Oct 1881 and states he died at home in Page Co. 17 Oct 1881. He was a member of the Lutheran Church. Because the obituary was probably more accurate, this death date was used.

Sarah's death is reported in the Page Co., VA death records and states she was the wife of Isaac Huffman and daughter of David and M. Mauck, and died 20 May 1887 at "Forge" Page Co., VA of heart disease at the age of 75 years. It states she was also born at "Forge". This author initially thought Sarah was the daughter of David Mock and Mary Butler due to this death record. However, given the above quoted bible records providing the same birthdate as Sarah's tombstone, and the fact that one of the bible's authors, Daniel Koontz who married Sally's sister Elizabeth, posted the bond for Sarah's marriage, this leaves no doubt in this author's mind that Sally and Sarah are the same person. The only question then, is why was her mother identified as M. Mauck in the death record?

The Huffman Family bible also provided the birth date for Isaac and Sarah. The bible indicates their marriage took place on 26 Nov 1833. A copy of the bible is in the Page Co., VA library.

@1) Page Co., VA Deed Book #A p.379
@2) Page Co., VA Will Book R p.50

Of interest is this Morgan is the one and only Morgan that appears in the 1850 census, and the personal property tax lists the same year show only one Morgan Mauck, adjacent John Mauck son of Abraham Mauck, Abraham being Morgan Ruffner Mauck's uncle.

The personal property tax lists for Fauquier Co. were examined from 1782-1850 and Morgan does not appear in any of them.

It is very clear from deeds involving David Mock and Mary Butler's other children that some of them lived near Abraham Mauck Jr., son of Abraham Mauck son of Daniel Mauck and Barbara Harnsberger. Perhaps this is the reason Morgan Mauck appears adjacent both Mauck lines in the personal property tax lists, they were all visited the same day as they lived adjacent each other. However, it is interesting to note that although there are supposed to be two Morgan Maucks in Page Co. at the same time, only one appears in any of the records. This author believes that there is a remote possibility there was but one Morgan Mauck, and he was born to the one Mauck family (Robert & Christina) and raised by the other (David and Mary). See David Mock and Mary Butler's son Morgan's line for further on his records.

In 1881 Frances Ball entered Hillsdale College and attracted the attention of her professor of Latin, Dr. Joseph Mauck. They were married at her home in Buffalo, NY in 1884.

Joseph and Frances then moved to Chicago to attend the University of Chicago. By 1886 they lived in Minneapolis where Joseph worked for Minneapolis Loan Trust Company.

Dr. Joseph William Mauck was a dedicated genealogist and it is impossible to do research on the Mauck families of Shenandoah and Page Couties without encountering his name. It appears his interest in genealogy started in his later years. Unfortunately all of his work and research on the Maucks has been lost in time. Efforts to locate his research at Hillsdale College, the local libraries and genealogy organizations, his descendants and with the Baptist church have proven unfruitful.

Dr. Joseph William Mauck, Miss Mary Susan Brubaker, Mrs. Vivian Lyon Moore and Mrs. Doris Friedrichs co-authored a short document summarizing the data for Dr. Joseph Mauck's Mauck ancestors, and Dr. Mauck's family and their contributions to Hillsdale. Much of the data for Dr. Mauck and his descendant's was obtained from this document.
