=============================

Commemorative Biographical Encyclopedia of Dauphin Co. by Dr. Egle 1896, p. 927 on John Cromer Westfall which says that his father, Simeon, was born in Indiana Co., and as a young man moved to Harrisburg, Pa. where he pursued the occupation of hauling freight by wagon and 6-horse team from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia. With the coming of the railroad this was no longer profitable so he then owned and operated the Black Horse Tavern, Paxton St., Harrisburg, Pa. from 1842 until his death in 1856.

On 17 October 1817 he was married to Hannah Barr by Rev. Geo. Lochman. This record is found in the Zion Lutheran Church, Book 1, p. 316.

He died at his home, 23 February 1856 and is buried in the Harrisburg Cemetery in an unmarked grave. Neither he nor his wife had a will.

Some of the above came from relatives and the Westfall Family Bible. I feel Abraham may be the name of his father, although the place of birth doesn't match. In the N.Y. Dutch Reformed Church records there is an entry for baptism: Bapt. 1793, August 28, Simon, son of Abraham Westfall and Maria Masterson. In the 1800 Indiana Co., Pa. census an Abrahm Westfall is listed in Blacklick Township, but doesn't have the names of the sons and daughters.

This is about all I have been able to dig up. I hope it will

help to connect.
