A Circuit Rider - Methodist Minister
Contributed by Evelyn Baker
The information below was transcribed and submitted by Springfield Township coordinator Evelyn Baker, and is from the files of Wilbur Palmer, Springfield Township historian. What follows below is a listing of the marriage records kept by Rev. GEORGE STUNTZ (b.1789 d. 1866). His circuit extended through northwestern Pennsylvania, eastern Ohio, to northern Kentucky. The records have been handed down through the years beginning with his grand daughter, Amanda J. Stuntz who married Dr. Amos Button Heard. Dr. Heard is mentioned in Nelson's History of Erie County 1896 & 1987 reprint 11, page 832. The listings are mostly for Erie County (PA), although there are a number from Crawford County (PA) and even a few from Ohio. The first 70 entries are probably typed by descendant, Robert Parr. There are many typos, repeated here, not knowing if it is 1800s phonetics, poor spelling or difficult deciphering. directly.
In addition to the listing, the following appears on the inside back cover is listed a baptism on August 4 ( or 9 ), 1835 for :
