Research Notes:
Joseph, my ancestor, was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. I have found no conclusive record of his parents other than what's posted in numerous trees with no sources. If, indeed, his father was Ludwig, Jr., then his father did not immigrate at the same time as Ludwig, Sr. The ship manifest shows that Ludwig Sr. crossed with his wife and three sons, and those three sons were said to be, according to unsubstantiated entries, George, Henry, and Jacob. Yet another said "George of John." So, if John, then that would account for Johann Ludwig, Jr., who would have been 4 yrs old.
He would have settled in Frederick Co Maryland sometime after 1749 because Joseph was born in Lancaster. According to what's general consensus on him, he died in 1776. The History of Lancaster book was written in 1883 and did not include him. It also said nothing more was known of Sr.'s son George other than he made the voyage. Could somehow George and Ludwig Jr. be one and the same?

With all that said there is an article regarding Muhler Y-DNA testing that states:
"Ludwig MOHLER has only one proved son at the present time, that being Ludwig, Jr. With the DNA match..."
http://home.netcom.com/~fzsaund/moulder.html

The consensus also says that Ludwig Jr.'s wife was Anna Huntseker, and I have been unable to find a good source for that. I did find where an Anna Huntseker was passenger on the ship Pennsylvania Merchant, John Stedman, Master, from Rotterdam. Qualified Sep. 11, 1731. She is included in the list of "Women's names above 16" along with a Eliz. Huntseker and a Frena Huntseker. In the general list of passengers is a Hartman Huntseker and a Martin Hunseeker. Another list shows Anna Huntseker, Ursul Huntseck, Meyer Huntseker, and Hannes Hunseker.

Interestingly enough, on that same ship was a Johann Georg Mayer, Andrens Meyer, and Gerich Meyer. Could they be our Pennsylvania cousins?

Johann Georg Mayer swore allegience 11 Sep 1731.

Family/Spouse: Anna* Huntseker, (immigrant). Anna* was born in 1728 in Katzbach, Bern, Switzerland; died on 20 Jan 1774 in Pennsylvania. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Remnant Tax Digest, Leaves Gone Front and Back. Explanatory: This is the first tax digest found in the court house, and was taken to give a practically complete census of the heads of families of that date, to identify their lands as headrights, and possible bounty grants for Revolutionary service, and to replace in a measure the census of 1790, all of which for Georgia was destroyed by the British during the War of 1812 in Washington, D. C. There is no complete digest until 1802, only a few pages left in the interim. The remnants for 1792, 1793, 1794 have been published in "Some Tax Digests of Georgia" Ruth Blair, State Historian and Archivist, and give valuable information. The entry reads: Joseph Moler, 1 poll, 250 acres Wilkes Co.

Religion: ABT 1800 KY, Nicholas Co

The largest congregation was north of Boonesboro, toward Limestone. It was on Hinkston Creek, near Mount Sterling Kentucky. Jonas Hahn and his son Peter were here, as were the Welty, Kern, Rebelin, Ramsey, Moler, Garver/Garber, Ockerman, Keithley, Landess, Hendricks, Coleglazer, Lantz, Rowland, Sears, West, Wyatt, Zimmerman families. This was a "Brethren Association" church, and went Disciples after 1826.
source: Title: Rummel, Merle C., Brethren on the Ohio Valley Frontier (Web Site)
----
Joseph Moler undoubtedly spoke German and was a member of the early German Baptist Church. While in Kentucky, the Molers, along with the Welty, Ockerman, Keithley and Landess families, were prominent in the Brethren congregation formed at Hinkston Creek, Bath County and their meeting place on Somerset Creek, Nicholas County, now East Union. Many of these families relocated to Highland County, Ohio in the first years of the 19th century, Joseph Moler going there about 1814.

The Crose Families. Michael Crose was born in Maryland in 1765, or earlier, and his wife, Mary Crose, was born in Virginia in 1769. They were both members of the German Baptist or Dunkard Church. They both spoke the German language and brought their German Bible with them to Kentucky about 1780. In all probability their ancestors came to Pennsylvania with a colony of German Baptists in 1719 from near Kassel Hess, in Westfalia Province, Germany. This colony spread over parts of Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, and finally a small community came to Bourbon and Nicholas counties, Kentucky. Among them were Blounts, Shrouts, Molars, Hahns and the Crose or Krauses. They built a church at the forks of Somerset Creek in Nicholas County, which they named East Union, and in which they preached in the German language.

I found Joseph Moler later at the Falls Creek Church in Highland Co OH and the hint/possibility that he died at the home of his son, John Moler at the Obannon or Stonelick Church. I have not found any grave for Joseph or John around Stonelick. There is a Moler Road just northwest of the present church or southeast of the Obannon Church where John Moler lived. I do not have a complete burial list of the Stouder Cemetery at the Obannon Church site just southeast of Goshen OH. The Stonelick Church sits at the edge of the Stonelick State Park near Edenton OH. The Park was made of several of the Brethren farms. The surviving congregation of the old Obannon Church is now pastored at the Stonelick Church of the Brethren.

Will:
I, Isaac Moler of Nicholas County and State of Kentucky, do make this my last Will and Testament. First, that after my death all my just debts and funeral expenses be punctually paid by Executors and then that my estate, real, personal and mixed shall be equally divided between all my children with this exception: that whereas heretofore my son Alexander Moler purchased of my son Elza Moler all his interest or expected interest in all my estate for which he has paid him Three hundred dollars and as said sale was made by knowledge and consent and said payment of Three hundred Dollars has been made I therefore will and bequeath to my son Elza no portion whatever of my estate, but in order that said contract between my son Alexander Moler and my son Elza Moler may be carried out and have its effect according to the true meaning and intention thereof I therefore will and bequeath the portion of my estate which would have been given to my son Elza if no such contract had been made to my son Alexander Moler and that my meaning may be fully understood my Will is that Elza is to have no share of my estate and that Alexander is to have two shares of my estate both real and personal. I further will and bequeath that my executor hereafter to be appointed shall have full and complete power to sell and convey to the purchaser the farm on which I now live containing about one hundred and sixty acres be the same more or less with the exception of the graveyard lot in the Orchard which is not to be sold but which graveyard lot I will and bequeath to my son Alexander Moler and his successors in office forever for the use of a Graveyard, and whereas my Daughter Scilia Barbee has departed this life leaving two children Elijah and Isaac Newton both infants now, my Will is that said infant children shall be entitled to that portion of my estate to which their mother would have been entitled had she been living, that is to say that one eleventh part of my entire estate be paid to them by my Executors when they become twenty one years of age, but no portion of said estate is to be paid to them nor to any Guardian appointed for them until they become of full age. But the same shall remain in the hands of my Executors and be put to interest for their benefit until they are twenty one years of age and then paid to them by my Executors provided that my Executors may appreciate the interest of their share of any money in their hands belonging to said infants to their tuition and support and if in the discretion of my Executors it shall become necessary they take the principal for the support and tuition of said infants. Now as I have ten living children and one daughter Scilia Barbee who is dead now my Will is that my estate be divided into eleven equal parts and the children aforesaid of Scilia Barbee to have one part and my son Alexander Moler is to have two parts and my son Elza is to have nothing and each of my other children to have one part. And lastly I hereby nominate Constitute and appoint my son Alexander Moler and my friend Thomas Clark Executors of this my last Will & Testament hereby revoking all other former wills by me heretofore made. Given under my hand this 27th day of July 1850. Attest: John Carter, John Alexaner, Abraham Shulse. Isaac (his X mark) Moler.

"JOSEPH MOLER, www.usgenweb.com
One of the well known residents of Clinton township is Joseph Moler, who was born in Nicholas county, Kentucky, June 2, 1834. In 1853 he came to Indiana and has since made this state his place of abode. He is the son of John and Sarah (Colliver) Moler, the former born in Bourbon county, Kentucky, in the same vicinity as his son, Joseph. His parents were Pennsylvania Dutch who came to Kentucky about 1790, his father, Joseph Moler, having been a soldier in the Revolutionary war. In 1853 John Moler and family came to Putnam county, Indiana, locating in Clinton township on the land where Joseph Moler now resides. It was then only partly cleared and had a few rude buildings on it, and here the elder Moler lived, and died on November 3, 1866, at the age of sixty-one years, having been born November 30, 1805. His wife died in 1856, at the age of forty-seven years. She was born in Montgomery county, Indiana, in 1809. Only one of their children was born in Indiana those to reach maturity were: Marr, who married Russell Allen, of Greencastle, and died in that city in 1873 or 1874; Joseph, of this review; Richard H., a farmer in Parke county, Indiana: Jeff. T., who lives in Louisiana, Missouri; Susan E., who married R. D. Hamilton and died when in middle life; Levi, who went to Missouri, where he died; Jemima, the wife of Mr. Hannah and living in Missouri; Presley C., a bachelor and still living on the old homestead; Emma J., who married Caleb Bratton, of Boone county, Indiana.
Joseph Moler was nineteen years old when he came to Indiana. He remained at home until he was twenty-five pears old, assisting in clearing the place. On November 1, 1859, he married Lucy P. Newgent, he being twenty-five and she eighteen; they had lived on adjoining farms for some time. A sketch of her father, Edward Newgent, appears elsewhere in this volume. After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. Moler spent two years in Pulaski county, Indiana, then moved back to Putnam county on the farm of Mr. Moler's father, taking charge of part of it. In 1868 he rented and took charge of the entire farm of two hundred and forty acres. Later he bought the interests of others in the home place, owning eighty acres. He has made extensive improvements on his place, building a fine home in 1891, and he has good barns and devotes considerable time to stock raising, making grains also a specialty, feeding what grain the place produces. He has laid two hundred and fifty rods of tile. He is very successful as a general farmer. Mr. Moler is an independent thinker and keeps well posted on political and current events. He is no partisan and always votes for the men whom he deems to be the best qualified for the offices sought.
Three children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Moler, one of whom died when ten years of age. Levi Shelby Moler is a farmer in Clinton township, he was candidate for nomination as county clerk in 1910. Stella May married J. S. Brown, a farmer of Woonsocket, South Dakota.
On November 1, 1909, was celebrated Mr. and Mrs. Moler's fiftieth wedding anniversary, which was quite an event in the Moler family and greatly enjoyed by all who were fortunate enough to be present. The only anniversary guest who was also present at their marriage was John Newgent, cousin of Mrs. Moler, he having enjoyed the celebration after a half century lapse from the nuptial day almost as much as the elder1y couple themselves. Rev. Joseph Skeeters, now deceased, performed the marriage ceremony.
Fraternally Mr. Moler is a Mason and he takes a great interest in Masonry, endeavoring to live up to its wholesome teachings in his every day life.
