\"John<\/a><\/p>\n

John FranklinWolf was born 11 April 1809 in Berwick, Adams County, Pennsylvania<\/a>. He was the son of John Frederick Wolf<\/a> and Esther Barbara Shaffer. John Franklin Wolf married Elisabeth Burkholder, 1814 – 1856 [daughter of Abraham Burkholder.] His second wife, married 6 November 1856 in Ohio<\/a>, was Caroline Orwig. John died 10 March 1883 in Medina County, Ohio.<\/p>\n

In 1830, 1840 & 1850 John lived in York County, Pennsylvania. John Franklin was a stone mason. Tax records show he had 19 \u00bd acres of land, a cow and a horse. Curiously, in 1850 the Wolf family was divided between 2 houses. John and Elisabeth lived in one house. Their oldest daughter, Sarah (Wolf) Williamson and her husband, James T. Williamson, lived next door. The census lists John and Elisabeth\u2019s children as living with their sister, rather than living with their parents.<\/p>\n

Sometime between 1850 and 1856 this Wolf family moved from Pennsylvania to Ohio. John Franklin and Elisabeth\u2019s ninth child was born in Ohio. In May 1856 Frederick Wolf was born. Unfortunately, Elisabeth died soon afterwards. John Franklin was left with nine children to care for, including an infant. He did not stay single for long. On 6 November 1856 John Franklin Wolf married Caroline Orwig. She had children from a previous marriage.<\/p>\n

Two of John\u2019s sons served in the Civil war. Both John and Joseph served and returned safely home again.<\/p>\n

In 1870 John Franklin was a stone mason in Wadsworth Twp. In 1880 he was living in Hinkley. John died 10 March 1883 in Medina County, Ohio. He was 73 years old. He and Elisabeth were my 3rd<\/sup> great grandparents.<\/p>\n
