<H2 ALIGN=CENTER><A NAME="Mayersbach"></A>MAYERSBACH / MAYERSBACK</H2>

Mary Ann MAYERSBACH was born 1849 in Southwark (London), Surrey, England, to Charles MAYERSBACH and Harriet Eliza WRIGHT. In 1866 at St. Peter's Church in Walworth, Surrey, Mary Ann MAYERSBACH married Willliam WOOTTON, born abt 1844 in Southwark. They had two sons: Charles Alfred WOOTTON and Joseph Wright WOOTTON. Our family story says that William WOOTTON died young and his widow Mary Ann married a Mr. LAW and had about five more children with him. Her two WOOTTON sons went to live with friends or family named YEO and ALCOCK in Ontario, Canada. Mary Ann (Mayersbach) Wootton LAW is said to have received a pension from the Crown after her LAW husband's death. Mary Ann is descended from Alexander von MAYERSBACH who emigrated to England from Germany in the 1700's. If any of this sounds familiar, please contact me!

Johann Martin MOHR (son of Johann Michael MOHR and Anna Margareta

b 1785 Christes, Henneberg by Suhl, Thuringia, d 2 Mar 1840 poss

Julianna Augusta KLOSS (daughter of a schoolmaster), b 1795 poss

Branderoda, Merseberg, Saxony; d 1861 Buffalo, Erie Co., New York.

<BR>

Johann Martin MOHR left Thuringia to become the new

schoolmaster in a Saxony town, possibly Branderoda. He ended up marrying the former

schoolmaster's daughter, Julianna Augusta KLOSS. After Johann's death in 1840 from typhoid,

Julianna emigrated with most of their adult children to New York City in 1848. During the sea

voyage, the ship lost one of its sails and each passenger had to donate one article of clothing to

make a new sail. Their grandchildren spread out across the U.S. I hope to find their descendants!

The MUNNs were pioneers in Carlton, Orleans Co., NY. According to the family story, the Munns' ancestors

were originally from Scotland and migrated to New York State from Connecticut. The parents

were Harvey "Harry" MUNN , b 1790 Woodbury, Litchfield Co., CT, and Marsena "Marcie" MOREHOUSE, b 1796 Brookfield, Fairfield Co., CT. Their known children are: Abel MUNN b abt 1816 CT, m Lucinda; Genette MUNN b abt 1818 CT, m William CHAMBERLAIN; Henry MUNN b 1823 NY, m Caroline BALLOU; and Leman or Lee MUNN, b 1829 NY, m Sarah McGUIRE of Scotland. Marsena (MOREHOUSE) MUNN might have been the daughter of Adonijah and Phoebe MOREHOUSE who also lived in Orleans Co., NY. Would appreciate contact with any MUNN or MOREHOUSE researchers re: Orleans Co., NY or WNY. I have more information on the family of Harvey and Marcie MUNN.<BR>
