Parent-Proof notes for Angeline Eisenhart
We know her maiden name from the death certificates of the three daughters she had with Daniel. She married Joseph Holshue after Daniel died.
Birth, Parent-Proof, Designation notes for Daniel (Spouse 1)
Daniel Martz, age 22, lives with the Mousey family in Coal Township in 1850. I don’t know for sure who he was.
The other Martzes in Coal Township then were Johannes and his son Benjamin and Daniel is a perfect age to be Benjamin’s son, so I am willing to guess that he was the son of Benjamin Martz of Coal Township and was off working on someone else’s farm.
In support of this theory, I do note that Benjamin had a son age 10-15 in 1840 who I otherwise can’t name. Daniel is designated P3a2a.

Relocated and Census Tracking notes for Daniel (Spouse 1)
By 1860, Daniel had married Angeline and they had two daughters. Then, by 1870, Daniel disappeared but I am sure I have found his widow Angeline then married to Joseph Holshue. The same two daughters, plus Isabelle born in 1861, lived in that household, though all three reported as if their name was Holshue.
