Tobias, from Bern County to Schuylkill County


 

The family I am researching in PA is Tobias, originally settled in Bern County, PA. Hans Jost > Ludwig > John > Daniel > Thomas Jefferson.
Daniel an innkeeper, operated The Black Horse Hotel at Fox Valley, Reilly Twsp, Schuylkil Co., PA; was postmaster at Swatara (1848). Would like to learn more about this inn.

I have a Thomas Jefferson Tobias (born around 1846), son of Daniel. Daniel married Catherine Hoffa. Catherine was born around 1797. (Catherine was my ggg aunt.) I have info on Catherine¡¯s ancestors but nothing more on Daniel¡¯s.

Yes, Thomas Jefferson Tobias, b. 10 Oct 1846, Schuylkill County, PA, died 18 Jan 1938, Washington, CD. He married about 1867, Elizabeth Ann ¡°Lizzie¡± Wood from St. Clair, Schuylkill County, PA. The family I research descends from his son Dr. Henry Wood Tobias, b. 8 May 1876, Donaldson, Schuylkill County, PA, died 6 Oct 1968, Ashton, MD.

Catherine Hoffa - I have seen some interesting newspaper accounts of her long life.
