{Encyclopaedia Britannica, 1956 Ed., 20:33 states:} Ludolph (Liudolf) was appointed about 850 by King Louis "the German" as margrave to defend the `Limes Saxoniae' (a narrow strip of land on the eastern frontier) against the Slavs. Ludolph vigorously fought the Slavs and extended the frontier and his own influence. {-This source states he died in 866.} He was
succeeded by his son Bruno who was killed fighting the Normans in 880; the second son, Otto the Illustrious, then succeeded and was recognized Duke of Saxony by King Conrad I. "The Carolingians," Pierre Riché (Philadelpha: U of PA Press, 1993), Table 3, reports he also had Hathumonda (d. 875; Abbess of Gandersheim), Bruno (d. 800; Duke of Saxony), Gerberga (Abbess of Gandersheim) and Christina (d. 919; Abbess of Gandersheim).

[50727] "The Bangor Daily News [Bangor, Maine]," 6 August 1951, p. 19: "Stonington, Aug. 5 - Harold A. Small, 54, died recently at his home after a brief illness. He was born in Stonington, son of Warren and Mina Merchant Small. He attended Stonington schools and Bowdoin College, where he was a member of Beta Theta Pi fraternity. He was a member of the former Lions club and secretary for 13 years of Reliance lodge, F. and A. M. He had been in the grocery business and handled insurance. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Alda Small; a son, Montelle; and a brother, Roy of Union, N.J."
Apparently Mary is daughter of John Witter. Sylvia (Mickybole@aol.com) wrote via email 6 Jan 2003: "Mary Witter Piper is a sister to my gg-grandfather, Abraham Witter. Abraham was married to a Catherine Ann Piper who was a niece to Daniel Piper. From a death notice found in a Fulton Co., PA newspaper we found that our Abraham came to Franklin Co., PA from Frederick Co., MD, with 'his father John Witter'. We have information from land/court records of Frederick Co., MD, that a John Witter came from Lancaster Co., PA to MD in the early 1780s and then to Franklin Co., PA in the early 1800s. We believe this to be the father of our Abraham and his sister Mary. But do not have POSITIVE documentation for this, i.e., birth records/will etc. Abraham was born 11 Jul 1786, the obit said Frederick Co., MD. We believe that our John Witter was married to a Catherine, but suspect he was married more than once. We also believe Christophel Witter/Weider/Widder, Sr., from Lancaster Co., PA, to be the father of John. (The Union Co., IN Witters are descended from this Christophel's son Christopher.)"
Betty Boddy Jantz posted in GenForum in June, 2003: "The way I see it, Mary Witter b. 26 Mar 1784 Frederick, MD was the daughter of John Witter b. abt 1762 and Hannah or Honour Washburn (dates unknown). She married Daniel Piper b. abt 1777 (son of Johann Adam Piper/Pfeiffer of Mainz, Germany. They had three boys: John A. Piper, Levi, and Abraham b. betwn 1803 - 1828. That's all I have on Mary. Mary's brother, Abraham Witter b. 11 Jul 1786 Fredericks Co, MD married Catherine Ann Piper b. 1805 m. 1923 and had 14 children...one being Adam Piper Witter b. 3 Feb 1829 Franklin Co, PA who married Hannah Tice. They had my great-grandfather, Abraham Howard Witter b. 01 Jul 1859 PA, who married Nancy Elmira Shriver b. 1864 married 1885 in Louisville, Kansas. My grandmother, Gertrude Nell Witter b. 6 Jun 1889 in LaClede(?), KS, was one of seven Witter/Shriver children. We know very little about her family and who her siblings married, etc. Gertrude Nell married my grandfather Aura Reinforth Boddy in 1917 Norton, Kansas where they raised very domesticated milk cows and farmed south of Norton, as well as owned property in downtown Littleton, Colorado." Betty Jantz wrote in GenForum in March, 2004: "I have seen John and Christina Roser Witter/Wieder born in PA, moved to Frederick County, MD (where Abraham and his older sister, Mary Piper/Pfeiffer) were born, then moved back to Amberson Valley, Fannett Twp, Franklin County, PA."
Marc Thompson (Fitpro4@aol.com) of Delray Beach, FL in 2006 stated that Mary's father is son of "John Christopher Wieder, born Abt. 1720; died Sep 25, 1807 in PA."
