Life and evidence
(Hostetler 1938, no. 2)
Eldest-listed child of Christian Stutzman and Barbara Hochstedler; died at Shanesville, Ohio. Married John Yoder (Somerset pioneer).
Through her, the Ramseyer side descends from the immigrant Jacob Hochstetler (1712–1776), already Christopher’s ancestor on the Miller side: a new case of pedigree collapse across two grandparents.
