Biography

Margaretta wife of John George Bossard was born about 1773. She witnessed the birth of John George Vetter Pershing on 14 December 1815 in Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.1,2 John George Bossert and she were married before 1793.3 She died after 1816.
Margaretta wife of John George Bossard was also known as Margaretta wo George Bossert. She was also known as Anna Marie wo John George Bossert. She was also known as Margarethe Vetter. She was also known as Margarethe Elder. She appeared on the census of in 1810 in the household of Christian Pershing, Senior, in Unity Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. George Buzzard is listed with a wife, one daughter and 3 sons. That would indicate that Either Catherine (1808) died before 1810 or Susanna (1809) did. At this point, I show Susanna married to Lewis Putt in Tuscarawas county, Ohio; so she probably was not the deceased daughter. With only 3 sons showing and other indications, I believe that George Vetter Bossart was the deceased son by 1810.4,5 She witnessed the land transaction of John George Bossert to Christian Pershing, Junior, on 11 January 1811 of in Unity Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. for $856 She witnessed the land transaction of John George Bossert on 28 March 1816 of in Unity Township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. purchased by George John Bossert by patent dated 30 Apr 1810, Patent Book H, Volume 2, page 4166 Research Note:. Margarethe's maiden name could be Vetter; baptism of grandson, John Geo Vetter Pershing, in 1815 clearly shows the sponsors as "John Geo. Vetter Bossert & Margarethe". The question is whether this is the child's grandparents or his uncle and aunt.
