Notes
a. Note:   Sponsors at baptism were Johannes and Maria (Brobst) Zimmerman. Census records show they moved to East Brunswick Twp, Schuylkill County, between 1850 and 1870. Their farm of 64 acres was located near New Ringgold in Kistler Valley. There may have been financial incentives for him to leave Lehigh Co for Schuylkill Co; available land in Lehigh Co was becoming hard to find. 1850 Census Albany Township Berks Co.

Pictures obtained by Don Davis that I believe are of Harry's father John, show a man of fair hair and blue eyes on horseback and in a portrait photo. My Great Aunt Eleanora told me she believed it was either my Pop at a young age or John Albert (I believe the latter is true). There is also a mystery photo (circa. 1870 or maybe Civil War era) of a man of average height, probably around 5'9" or thereabouts in some kind of uniform (either Railroad mechanic, canalsman, or Civil War volunteer). Not certain if this is Nathan John Brobst or Daniel Bankes or someone else. SOURCE: Brobst, Thomas N.
