[1683] Otto II was chosen German king in 961 and crowned joint emperor at Rome by Pope John XIII (25 Dec 967); he became sole emperor on the death of his father (in May, 973). His son reigned as Otto III, 983-1002. Otto II is the only Holy Roman Emperor to be buried in St. Peter's Basilica, Rome. He is listed as a child of Otto I by Edith of Wessex in "The Carolingians," Pierre Riché (Philadelphia: U. of PA Press, 1993), Table 3 - but his birth year suggests he is son by Adelaine of Burgndy. http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands offers: "Otto (end 955-Rome 7 Dec 983, bur Rome St Peter's). Regino records the birth of 'Otto filius regis' at the end of 955. 'Ottone fratre [Machtild unica filia . . .patre Otto imperatore et matre Athelheida imperiatrice]' was recorded by Annalista Saxo. He was elected associate King of Germany at Worms and crowned at Aachen 26 May 961. He was crowned associate Emperor 25 Dec 967 at Rome. He was elected Otto II 'Rufus' King of Germany at Worms early May 973, crowned at Aachen 26 May 973. His rule was challenged by the rebellions of his cousin Heinrich II 'der Zänker' Duke of Bavaria in 974 and 976/78. On his accession, he claimed Byzantium's possessions in Italy as part of his wife's dowry. He left for Italy in Nov 980 to press his claims, conquered Tarento, but was defeated in 982 by a Byzantine/Muslim alliance near Stilo in Calabria. His chancery adopted the title 'imperator Romanorum augustus' in 982. After holding court at Verona, where his son was elected associate king, Otto II left for Rome where he died of malaria. The necrology of Fulda records the death '983 7 Id Dec' of 'Otto imperator'. - m (Rome 14 Apr 972) Theophano, niece of Emperor Ioannes Tzimisces, daughter of --- ([960]-Nijmegen 15 Jun 991, bur Köln St Pantaleon). Her exact relationship to Emperor Ioannes Tzimisces is unknown. It is possible that she was a relative of the emperor's wife rather than of the emperor himself. Emperor Otto I had sent to Constantinople for an imperial bride for his son, but in the meantime Emperor Nikephoros Phokas was murdered. According to Thietmar, his successor Emperor Ioannes Tzimisces sent his niece Theophano back to Germany 'not the desired maiden . . .accompanied by a splendid entourage and magnificent gifts'. 'Otto . . .imperator augustus' granted property to 'Theophanu, Iohannis Constantinopolitani imperatoris neptim' dated 14 Apr 972. Lay Abbess of Nivelles. She was regent during the minority of her son 984-991. Thietmar records the death of Empress Theophano at Nijmegen on 15 Jun and her place of burial. The necrology of Merseburg records the death '15 Jun' of 'Theophanu imperatrix'."
[45813] Faith is from the unverified file M4G4-JK9 in 2019 in familysearch.org which states she is daughter of John Miller (1604-1663) and Lydia _____ (1608-1658, m. ca. 1631 in Co. Kent, England).

Apparently Mary is daughter of John Witter. Sylvia (Mickybole@aol.com) wrote via email 6 Jan 2003: "Mary Witter Piper is a sister to my gg-grandfather, Abraham Witter. Abraham was married to a Catherine Ann Piper who was a niece to Daniel Piper. From a death notice found in a Fulton Co., PA newspaper we found that our Abraham came to Franklin Co., PA from Frederick Co., MD, with 'his father John Witter'. We have information from land/court records of Frederick Co., MD, that a John Witter came from Lancaster Co., PA to MD in the early 1780s and then to Franklin Co., PA in the early 1800s. We believe this to be the father of our Abraham and his sister Mary. But do not have POSITIVE documentation for this, i.e., birth records/will etc. Abraham was born 11 Jul 1786, the obit said Frederick Co., MD. We believe that our John Witter was married to a Catherine, but suspect he was married more than once. We also believe Christophel Witter/Weider/Widder, Sr., from Lancaster Co., PA, to be the father of John. (The Union Co., IN Witters are descended from this Christophel's son Christopher.)"
Betty Boddy Jantz posted in GenForum in June, 2003: "The way I see it, Mary Witter b. 26 Mar 1784 Frederick, MD was the daughter of John Witter b. abt 1762 and Hannah or Honour Washburn (dates unknown). She married Daniel Piper b. abt 1777 (son of Johann Adam Piper/Pfeiffer of Mainz, Germany. They had three boys: John A. Piper, Levi, and Abraham b. betwn 1803 - 1828. That's all I have on Mary. Mary's brother, Abraham Witter b. 11 Jul 1786 Fredericks Co, MD married Catherine Ann Piper b. 1805 m. 1923 and had 14 children...one being Adam Piper Witter b. 3 Feb 1829 Franklin Co, PA who married Hannah Tice. They had my great-grandfather, Abraham Howard Witter b. 01 Jul 1859 PA, who married Nancy Elmira Shriver b. 1864 married 1885 in Louisville, Kansas. My grandmother, Gertrude Nell Witter b. 6 Jun 1889 in LaClede(?), KS, was one of seven Witter/Shriver children. We know very little about her family and who her siblings married, etc. Gertrude Nell married my grandfather Aura Reinforth Boddy in 1917 Norton, Kansas where they raised very domesticated milk cows and farmed south of Norton, as well as owned property in downtown Littleton, Colorado." Betty Jantz wrote in GenForum in March, 2004: "I have seen John and Christina Roser Witter/Wieder born in PA, moved to Frederick County, MD (where Abraham and his older sister, Mary Piper/Pfeiffer) were born, then moved back to Amberson Valley, Fannett Twp, Franklin County, PA."
Marc Thompson (Fitpro4@aol.com) of Delray Beach, FL in 2006 stated that Mary's father is son of "John Christopher Wieder, born Abt. 1720; died Sep 25, 1807 in PA."
