Anna Maria Probst

GEDCOM Note

The German spelling of this name was probably Kehr. For a long time, it has been assumed that her name was Anna Maria Keller, widow of Peter Keller, but that has now been determined to be incorrect. Anna Maria Keller lived in Lancaster County, PA. For "our" Johann Michael to have married her in the Muddy Creek Lutheran Church, Cocalico Twp, Lancaster County, it would have meant that Johann Michaelleft his brother and sister and their families and went to Lancaster Co. instead of Berks/Lehigh Co. Why would he have done such a thing? Not possible, for his first child was born in Lynn Twp in 1736. However, Johann Michael Propst and Anna Maria Keller had four children in Lancaster, from 1734 to 1738. We now know that Anna Maria Keller married Johan Michael Propst (b abt 1712), who did in factmove from Philadelphia to Lancaster Co. in 1733. The Probst and Propst families are not related. It is also noted that an Anna Maria Keller, daughter of Heinrich and Anna Catharina Keller, married Erasmus Hess, son of Heinrich and Margaretha Hess, at the Oley Hill Church, Pike Township, Berks County, on August 10, 1755. That was a different Anna Maria Keller.
