There is an Abner Stetler buried in Union Dale Cemetery Pittsbugh, (1870-1906) along with Elizabeth (1840-1872) and Miles (1838-1875) Stetler. I'm pretty sure this is the son & daughter-in-law of Abner Stetler Sr. and grandson. Dean

Lara, I thought maybe you would like to see these.

The Allegheny Cemetery records are screwed up, they have the Stetler name spelled wrong. I found Abner Jr., Caroline and Norris. There is also another Abner Stetler buried in the same lot without a marker. He passed away 5 Feb 1931. Attached are the pictures and lot information. P.S. Please get me your mailing address again so I can send you what I have. I will add this fine , if I can

Parker Norris? I am also working on a line claiming to be from Isaac. I am working from an unpublished manuscript by Calvin C. J. Norris compiled between 1888 and abt 1928. Calvin does not mention anything other than a family Bible and does not claim descent from Isaac. A descendant of Calvin's brother, John Willard Norris, is referred to in a newspaper article as having Isaac as his 3gr-grandfather. By my count, his 3gr-grandfather is Thomas and Issac would be his 4 or 5 gr-grandfather. Thomas is as far back as I can reasonably believe. Thomas m. Sarah (____), their son, James , b.1754, m.

Abner William STETLER, by Dean THOMSON
Montgomery County, PA | 1800's
Lara, I thought I'd tell you my reasoning for A. William Stetler being Abner. It is this: Every single listing of his business in the directoies of Pittsburgh are A. Stetler. I don't think he liked the name Abner although he had a son Abner. Anyway, I am confident enough to to say his full given name was Abner William Stetler. I have a job for you, I think Christian Stetler is listed in the 1810 census of Montgomery county, could you check Ancestry, if you would find a Christian Stetler age 30 or 31, that would be him! also if you find a female age 24 that should be Sarah Ann. I suspect she may have been married about age 19 since daughter Sarah Ann Norris was born 1804. Thank you for your kind comments. i just met some very nice people via the internet. Dean

Early American, NORRIS', info from Dean THOMSON.
1689-1854 | NJ
The first Montgomery County Courthouse was built and in use by 1791. It was rebuilt on a much grander scale in 1854, and, subsequently, enlarged.
As the borough grew, various attempts to charter it as a city were vigorously opposed. In the early 20th century the Boro was apt to proclaim itself as the "biggest, busiest, and brightest Borough in the world."
What's in a Name?
In November of 1689, William Penn ordered Captain Thomas Holme (his surveyor general) to lay out a tract of ground on the canoeable part of the Schuylkill River. In 1704 Penn gave the land to his son, William, as a gift. Five days later William sold the 7,482 acre property to Isaac Norris and William Trent for 850 pounds. Trent sold his share to Norris in 1712, moving to New Jersey and founding what became the NJ State Capitol - Trenton.
William had named the area "Williamstadt" (William's Town). Other early names given to the site included "Norriton" and "Norritingham," derived from Isaac Norris and his descendants.
The borough contains two National Register Historic Districts: West Norristown and Central Norristown; also on the National Register are the David Rittenhouse Junior High School (Locust Street) and the General Thomas J Stewart Memorial Armory (Harding Boulevard).
