I took these inscriptions in the afternoon of November 17, 1905. Frank Greegor, tenant on the farm. J. Zeamer Zeamer count 14 All the inscriptions in this burying ground are in sood condition and the stones were all standing erect when I visited the place.. The grounds are well kept and surrounded by a fence made of wire and wooden rails. November 17, 1905 J. Zeamer 1998 Note: The Strickler Farm was formerly owned by Abraham & Catharine Hertzler-Hartzler. Abraham, s/o Elizabeth Brubaker and Christian Hertzler was born in 1774 in Manor Township Lancaster Co., PA He married Catharine Dellebach on 22 Feb 1802, at Trinity Lutheran Church Lancaster, PA. On 12 Apr 1806 they purchased the 224 acre plantation from John Sheafer located in South Middleton Twp. Cumberland Co., PA There is a marble plate on the wall of the house "Built by Abram & Catharine Hartzler in 1822". In 1855, Abraham sold the farm to his son-in-law, Ulrich Strickler, and moved to his retirement home in Hickorytown, PA. It was known for many years as the the Strickler Farm. Two of their daughters and their families are buried in the family graveyard, Catharine Hertzler married Ulrich Strickler, Elizabeth Hertzler married Daniel Hoffer. Tradition has it, that when the Hertzlers came to Cumberland County,speaking their German language, the English and Irish thought their name sounded like like, HARTZLER so they were known as Hartzlers. In the 1880's they went back to the original spelling. This can be found in the deeds, maps and other legal papers at the court house at Carlisle,PA. In 1998, there are some of these Hertzler descendents still living in Cumberland County, PA. However, these are not my direct ancestors! In Jun 1992 I visited this homestead & Graveyard on Byers Road, South Middleton Twp, Cumberland Co., PA. The Grave yard was found to be in very bad condition. Only four of the fifteen gravestones were standing The others were either leaning,laying down or buried. I knew something had to be done!! I immediately, searched for others who could be interested in seeing that the place was cleaned and restored. In Aug 1992, I returned to coordinate the project and was assisted by Galen Byers, Rev. John G. Brubaker of Carlisle, Gerald Kraybill of Dillsburg, PA., Danny Hege, Gary Hege of Olar, South Carolina and Rebecca Hertzler of Newport, New Hampshire. With the help of a listing and a map done in 1975 by area historian John Frailish, Jr., this "God's Acre" has been restored and is presentable again. The gravestones have been relocated and repaired and now stand to show the resting place of all that repose there. Source: "THE OTHER HERTZLER-HARTZLERS", 1995 December 2, 1998, Leon Hertzler
