Mr. Stevelpp 98 Whitney Sn Frncisco,CA94131 Der Steve, Hving red your query in John Blkenbker's "Beyonil Germnnn," sent you in Jnury this yer brief rtide on Rndolph Mock, nd you responded soon therefter. In tht letter I mention tht I ws working on n ncestrl fmi$ by the nme of Klfus (whidtin Germny is ctully Klbfuss). Still pursuing informtion on tht fmily, I ws in Louisville, KY erlier this week nd ws checkingold Louisville newsppers on microfilm to find out ny fcts re' grding the deth of one Jeremih Klfus, who ws sid to hve been shot nd killed t his residence on 15 December Sure enough, I found n rticle in the 17 December LIKA newspper on the murder, nd on 20 December they published the inquest nd his funerl notice. It ws relly quite interesting to red this old pped full of wr news, "rebels cptured," Confedertes tken prisonert, nd the lnguge used to describe the events of the dy ws, t times, rther fu*). In scnning some of the other rticles on the pge I rn cross one in the 20 December 18&t pper hving to do with n Andrew Muck. While obviously this is not your ncestol your reply bove indicted tht your Mock group ws publishing newslefter. Since I do qurterly newsletter for Gennn heritge society, Pnlntines to At reric, nd I m perpefully on the lookout for mteril of interest, nd which would be pertinent, I though you might be interested in the endosed rtide. The qulity of the reder/printer t the Louisvile Publiclibrry is not exceptionl, nd Ihve beentold tht photocopies mde on such mchine fde quite rpidly, so I hve trnscribed it s well I hope you find this t Iest interestir& if not useful.

We now hve 55 prticipnts, with only n pprent three tht hve decided not to return their test kits. Among our ltest prticipnts is descendnt of Alexnder Mck, founder of the Church of the Brethren. We only hve 12 mrker results t this point on the 37 mrker test, but there re no mtches whidr mens tht there will be no mtches when the 37 mrker results re bck. We need more descendnts of Alexnder Mck to verify the current prticipnfs results! Shron Whitker nd her fthe4, Lloyd Mock, hve undertken n mbitious project to solicit Y-DNA prticipnts by direct mil! They hve locted the miling ddress of dozens of Mocks nd re sending letters to ech Mock introducing them to MFF{ nd the DNA proiect! Good worl Shmn nd Lloyd! Ifs this kind of effort tht will get the job done! The DNA testing continues to be veqy interesting. We cn now chrt descendnts of the Rudolph/Dniel Muck line through direct descendnts of Rudolph through Rudolph fr. nd correlte them with descendnts of different sons of Dniel. This does not prove tht Rudolph ws Dniels ftheq, but the results show tht he certinly could hve been Becuse my own results didn't mtch my documented line FTDNATn re.test t no chrge to doublecheck nqp results' me"retesfprorectufittfiticl $dth the originl test.

Wefre lwys redy to enter more orders for DNA tests! Send me n e-mil t dmuck@corne! or send me letter with your oldest known Mock descendnt, your miling ddress, the miling ddress to which the test kit should be miled nd your telephone number.

I've red tht s mny s 3% f thepopultion hs norrptemity event in their history!

As the Bible wrns: 'Be sure your sins will findyou out '.-...nd pprently even 3(X) yers lter! I would encourge those with 25 or less mrkers tested to upgrde to 37 mrkers, not only joe Snford Muk with 24/25 mtch with Aln Brlory but others s well, for who knows wht mtches or ner mtches will showupnext? I should lso mention tht the defult setting on new test results is?rivte', which me.rns tht mtches will not be reported. I've been chnging the setting to?ublic on ll of our prticipnts so tht mtches will be shred. The whole point of DNA testing is to find mtches, so why refuse to shre the results with others? I suppose libilityissues force FTDNAto defultto?rivtd results. We need more prticipnts in our Proiect nd we need upgrdes to 37 mrkers! Do it now!

3 Volume XIV No. 1. Wnter 2005 News Flsh - Swn Ets Crow! by Pul k Swn Ifs become pprent to me tht lve committed the dssicl genelogicl error of compressing the lives of three genertions into two. This is my mu culp. Peter Mock of Mrylnd ( ) ws born probbly in Germny, nd cme to Americ with Bible printed 1765 n Ntirnberg (t tht time free city of Europe). He lived t lest four plces in Frederick nd Wshington Counties, Mrylnd, served in the Wshington County Militi, hd three wives, nd eight children- The erliest record of him in this country is the bptism 22 Feb 1757 of. Peter, his first "ttild by his first wife, Mri Mgdlen Erb, in Silver Rury Frederick County. His finl record is his tombstone in the Bust Church Cemetery in wht is now Crroll County, Mrylnd. After his deth t ge 85 in18l2, his home nd 50 cre estte few miles est of Thneytown" known s The Resurury on Brother's Agreemmt, were tken over by Peter s the eldest son, who hd to give bond to his siblings for their shre of the estte. Almost twenty yers lteq, Peter ws forced to sell the estte nd shre the proceeds with thenry becuse he hd no other wy to py them the inheritnces from their fther. Before Peter inherited his fther's estte, "Peter Mock, fr." in 1810 purchsed 53 cres of lnd known s Durbin's Mistke somewhere firly dosetotherntnsry on Broths's Agreemmt. He nd his wife Elizbeth sold one cre of tht prcel iir 1814 to Peter Erb, most likely reltive of Mri Mgdlen- Then, on 3 Sep 1835, bout the time tht the fmily home ws sold, Peteq, his wife Elizbetlr, nd Elizbeth Deider, "mother of Elizbeth Mock nd widow of jcob Deider,deCd", together sold 891/2 cres of Durbin's Mistl&. Other records plce the widow Elizbeth Deide4, long with Peter Mock, in the drurch in SilverRun where Mri Mgdlen's son ws bptised. This is where I mde my mistke. I ssumed tht Peter, Jr., while the first Peter ws still live, must hve been tht son bpisedin\767. Wrong. Five yers fter these Mrylnd lnd sles, in LM), we find Peter Mck liri*g in Wyne Township. Drke County, Ohio. Five niles west of his frur" in the Stoner Cemetery is found the buril stone of 'Tlizbeth Deter, widow of cob Dete4, d US e 77 y. 9r.L 23 ds." A little rithmetic plces her birth s 4 Oct ft thepeter Mock, Jr. who bought lnd nd lter sold it with Elizbeth Deider ws the son of Mri Mgdlen4 he ws eight months older thn his mother-in-lw! To cut sorry story short, creful nlysis of the census records of Mrylnd nd Ohio, involvingiudicious pprecition of census ge errors, mkes it plin tht there were three Peter Mocks living in Frederick County. Immigrnt Peter I, bornl7?j,ttis son Peter II bptised 7767, nd Peter III ("1r.'), born bout 17f36, who moved to Drke Count;r, Ohio, with his wife nd mother-in-lw nd chnged the spelling of his nme to Mck.
