[56372] The unverified file GDZS-S2G in familysearch.org offers: "When John Linwood Gray was born on 28 February 1919, in Orland, Hancock, Maine, United States, his father, Linwood Hutchins Gray, was 24 and his mother, Isadora Austin Saunders, was 22. He married Muriel Janice Saunders on 9 October 1992, in Bucksport, Hancock, Maine, United States. He died on 24 December 2006, in Hancock, Maine, United States, at the age of 87, and was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery, Orland, Hancock, Maine, United States."
Andrew served in the War for Independence. In addition to the children shown here, there were Frederick, Jacob and a daughter who as wife of John Villary signed a release for the sale of her mother's homestead. bjdjensen@aol.com shared in July, 2003: "Andrew Heifer, Heffer, Haeffer, etc. filed for a pension in 1787 stating that he was 50 years old. His daughter Christina married George Michael Dillman, brother of Andrew Dillman. Both Dillman and Heffer families had lived in Lancaster (now Lebanon) County before coming to Snyder. George Michael Dillman and Andrew went to KY about 1795. George Michael moved to Clermont, OH in 1819. He died there in 1830. Christina died about 1835. I think that Andrew Heffer's father may be John or Johannas. Andrew had a son John who died shortly after birth in Lebanon Co."
A correspondent posted on the rootsweb.com message board 17 July 2003: "My ancestor George Michael Dillman married Christiana/Christina Heifer/Heffer/etc. in Snyder county. He is in the 1790 census as Michael. It was a custom among Germans to name someone after the father, but to use the second name as a call name. . . . . Andrew's military service and pension are in the Published Pennsylvania Archives, Fifth Series, Vol. 4, page 550. A microfilm of his application is at the PA state archives. It is listed as Andrew Heffer Folio 346. His estate papers [filed 10 July 1797] are available from the Northumberland County courthouse and list the children including Christiana. The release on the property is on file in the Northumberland County courthouse and in the courthouse in Bracken county, KY. It identifies Christiana as daughter of Andrew. I have tried to find the German home of Peter Druckenmiller without success. There are families with that surname in Lancaster Co., where Peter lived before going to Snyder, but I can find no connection."
Andrew served in Capt. Michael Weaver's Co. of the Northumberland Co. Militia, in Col. White's Regiment - on 20 Nov 1777 he was wounded in the right hand with the loss of his thumb and forefinger while service in the Continental Line ( - PA Archives - Series 5, Vol. 4, p. 550. Andrew was granted his military service pension of 13 pounds and 10 shillings for one year ending 14 Nov 1788 - see PA Archives, Colonial Records Series, Vol. 16, p. 163). He appears on the tax list in Northumberland County - PA Archives, Series 3, Vol. 19, pp. 451 & 737 - in 1787 he is listed for 50 acres, one horse and one cow - taxed 1.10.
In the 1790 federal census Andrew's immediate neighbor is Christian Truckymillar (Druckenmiller?) whose household contains 3 males 16 and under and 7 females; five neighbors away on the other side is Jacob Mayers (Moyer/Meyer?) whose household includes 3 males over 167, 3 males under 16 and 6 females.
For insight into what service in the War for Independence was like for Andrew, see "A People's History of the American Revolution," Ray Raphael (New York: The New Press, 2001 - ISBN 0-06-000440-1), Chapters 1 & 2.
Ancestry.com offers: "Haffer Name Meaning - German: from the Middle High German personal name Haffer, reduced form of Hadufrid, composed of the Germanic elements hadu battle and fridu peace."

[43702] Find A Grave memorial 68554670 offers His obituary: "Mr. John J. Weimer, Port Royal's last veteran of the Civil war, answered the last roll call at the Harrisburg hospital on Saturday, Nov. 7th after a lingering illness of diseases, incident to old age, he having attained the age 'of 92 years and 14 days. Being too young to enlist at the outbreak of the Civil War, he waited until Feb. 16, 1864, when he enlisted at Harrisburg, Pa., and was assigned to Battery E, 3rd Regt. Penna. Vol Heavy Artillery. He was sent to Fortress Monroe, Va., where he remained until discharged. His Company, with three others, was sent to the Bermuda Front, Aug. 22, 1864 and remained there until May 22, 1865. Battery E was assigned to Fort Converse, covering the Pontoon Bridge across the Appomattox River, and was the extreme left of the Army of the James, and the right of the Army of the Potomac. A part of the work was that of furnishing details for fatigue duty upon the fortifications and for duty in other branches of the service. At the close of the war the Company returned to Fortress Monroe, where Jefferson Davis was for a time in durance, and under guard of this regiment. While at Fortress Monroe he frequently escorted Maj. General Mile's and Jefferson Davis in a stroll around the ramparts. This regiment in which he was placed was organized for special duty at Fortress Monroe, but had a large share of field service to perform. It was remarkably well drilled in artillery infantry and naval duty. He was honorably discharged Nov. 9,1865. After the war he returned to private life and took up his trade as a carpenter and was employed as a P. R. R carpenter for many years until placed on the retired list. He was a faithful member of the Port Royal Lutheran church and Sunday School and for many years served as an official in the church and sang in the choir. He also served in various official capacities in the Sunday School and taught a class. He was especially well versed in the Bible and on current topics of the day. He is survived by his aged wife, one daughter, Mrs. Laura McLaughlin, at home and one son, George M. Weimer of Port Royal and three grandsons, Hubert McLaughlin of Morgantown W. Va.; Dr. Bernal Weimer of Bethany, W. Va., and Rev. G. C.Weimer of Harrisburg, and a host of friends. - "Port Royal Times", 10 Nov 1936."
