[60224] Bruce's obituary: "Bucksport - Bruce Wayne McDunnah, 66, died Jan. 9, 2007, at a Bangor hospital after a long illness. He was born July 28, 1940, in Castine, to Iris (Spurling) McDunnah and Gerald McDunnah of Bucksport. After graduating from Bucksport High School in 1958, he entered the U.S. Navy and flew all over the world while stationed at Patuxent River Naval Air Station, Md. Upon his discharge in 1963, he married Sandra Martens of Sandy Point and returned to Bucksport, where they built a home on the Silver Lake Road and raised four children, and where Bruce still lived at the time of his death. He began working at the Champion Paper mill in 1965, and worked there for 40 years until illness forced him to retire. He is survived by his longtime, loving companion, Clara Ward of Bucksport; and five children, Lori Gauvin and her husband, Gary, of Winterport, Douglas Spurling McDunnah and his wife, Kerri, of Bar Harbor, Michael George McDunnah of Washington, D.C., Kathleen Page McDunnah and her companion, Corey Sherwood, of Bucksport, and Jamie Ward, who he raised as his own; five grandchildren, Meghan McDunnah, Kelsey, Olivia and Bronwyn Gauvin, and Owen Bruce Sherwood; a brother, Floyd McDunnah and his wife, Sharon; a favorite niece, Vicki Lynn McDunnah; a nephew, Darren; and by Tina, his adored springer spaniel. Bruce was a true Mainer with a dry wit and a love of the outdoors. His happiest moments were spent at his camps in Argyle and Rangeley, hunting and swapping stories with his oldest friends. He was a huge presence in the lives of those who knew him, and we will miss him."

[20977] Dwey's obituary is in the "Plain Speaker." His ancestry is from Norm Drasher, 45W Fishing Creek Rd., Etters, PA in 2001 - not verified. Dewey m. Edith McCarrow (b. 12 March 1903, d. 22 Sept 1966, buried with Dewey).
The unverified "West Wheeling, OH Pioneer Families" file in 2010 in Ancestry.com states John is son of Joseph Stull (b. 1640) and Katharine Sutfin (b. 1641).
A file in Ancestry.com in 2013 offers: "John Stull, Sr. b. c. 1700-10 in Germany. Arrived in Philadelphia, Pa., about 1730, after being "cast away" at sea on the voyage to America. He married Martha Jones, daughter of Mr. Jones (Jonas?) of Philadelphia, a Swede, and his wife, an Irish woman. They moved to Monocacy Colony in western Maryland, which was in Frederick Co., then called Prince George's Co., Md., and later Washington Co., Md. John built a grist mill on Antietam Creek, and was a miller. He owned plantations "Whiskey" and "Brandy" there. In 1733 he lived in Prince George Co., Monacacy Hundred, which later became Frederick Co. (Maryland State Papers). John and Martha had eight or more children. Eight were mentioned in his will dated Apr. 17, 1749. He died in 1749 in Frederick Co. Martha married second between 1749-1757 John White, b. Eng., lived in Shrewsbury, N. J., and Frederick Co., Md. John White's will was written Sept., 1755, probated Oct. 24, 1759. Martha married third Hugh Torrence, half-brother of William Torrence, Martha Stull's husband, and son of Albert Torrence."

Excerpts from writings of Jack Geary:
Margaret Stull was the daughter of John Stull and Martha Jones of Philadelphia, Pa. In one record it is stated that John Stull was a German, and another adds that he was a Swedish gentleman of good family and ample fortune. He was shipwrecked on the American Coast and remained a resident of Philadelphia, Pa. He married Martha Jones. From this union there was issue Daniel, John Jr., Jacob, Isaac, Abram, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine, Margaret and Susan.
John Stull, Jr., married Sarah White a daughter of John White and Sarah Leonard, who were the parents of Peter White, who married Margaret Stull. This John Stull, Jr. was a Col. in the Revolution. He had for his second wife Mrs. Mercy Ross, widow of Geo. Ross and sister of Gen. Otho Holland Williams. By John Stull, Jr. first marriage to Martha White there was issue one son Daniel, a Captain in the Revolution, and three daughters, Martha, Susannah and Letitia. The two last married brothers Mark and Martin Hardin of Kentucky, where their posterity still reside. Martha married William Torrance, a half brother of Hugh Torrance who was the third and last husband of Martha Jones. (By this it would apper that Martha Jones married the half brother of her grand-daughter's husband which I rather question.)
From the second wife of Col. John Stull, Jr. there was issue, Mercy, Matilda, John Isaac, Otho and Holland. Mercy married James Kendall; Matilda married George Smoot;John Isaac maried his first cousin Prudence Williams, residing in Georgetown, Md. He was a gallant officer in the Way of 1812. Otho married Letitia Hall residing in Hagerstown, Md. He, though old, was an officer in the late Rebellion. Holland married Dr. Harrison of Martinsburg, Va.
Of the other children of John Stull and Martha Jones, Elizabeth married a Mr. Johnson and moved to South Carolina. She and one of her sons were scalped by the Indians, both survived. Mary married Harmon Greathouse residing on the Ohio River near Wheeling; their sons were terrible fellows among the Indians, old Harmon was taken prisoner by the Indians, as was also Daniel Stull, son of Col. John Stull, Jr., on his was to Kentucky. Daniel married Mary Beaty, daughter of Col. Beaty of Manocacy; Catherine and Susan married brothers, John and Charles Swearingquin and had large families, many of them went to Kentucky; Margaret married Peter White.
Our Martha Jones was a daughter of a Mr. Jones, a native of Sweeden, who married a Miss Whaley, an Irish lady, after coming to this country. (Another record states that this Jones was a Welshman and Miss Whaley, English.)
The parents of Peter White, our great great grandfather, were John White and Sarah Leonard; both of whom were English. John White was a resident of Threwsberry, N.Y. prior to the Revolution. He was born in England, tracing his ancestry through a long and respectable lineage. Sarah Leonard was an accomplished beautiful and remarkable active woman, born in the province of New Jersey. She was celebrated as a graceful and skillful rider, also as a devoted church woman. She is said to have inherited a fortune. The family estate was called Shrewsbury and is so known on the records of New Jersey. John White, Jr. a son, was sent to England to recover a large estate accumulated by his uncle, William White, at the Cape of Good Hope, who died a bachelor and intestate. The estate was large but was lost to the American Heirs through the mismanagement of the said John White, Jr., who spent quite large sums in dissipation while in Europe. The result of this was embarrassment of home and the removal of the family to Maryland where the mother Sarah Leonard White died shortly afterward. Of the union of John White and Sarah Leonard there was issue five sons and four daughters; John, Peter, Leonard, Thomas and James. Abigail, Catherine, Sarah and Ruth.
John married and settled near Easton, Penn. and had a large family; Peter married Margaret Stull, our great great grandparents; Leonard married Mary McCoy and settled in Fayette Co., Pa. His widow married Benjamin Bloomfield. Thomas died unmarried. James married Sarah Clark and settled near Leonard. His widow with one son emigrated to Kentucky. Abigail married first Rev. W. DeButts and later John Furgeson; Catherine married Peter Jones; Sarah married John Stull the brother of Margaret Stull. Ruth married Peter Bainbridge, the son of her Aunt Abigail.
The second wife of John White was Martha Stull (nee Jones) widow of John Stull. This marriage was followed by the marriages of Peter White to Margaret Stull and John Stull, Jr., to Martha White. Thus did father, son and daughter marry mother, daughter and son.
John White had two brothers William and Peter White, neither of whom married, and one sister Abigail, all of whom resided in Shrewsbury, N.J. Abigail married Petr Bainbridge and was the mother of Johh, Edmund, Peter and Absolom. Absolom married a Miss Phillips and was the father of Commodore William Bainbridge of our Navy.
All of the Whites, Leonards and Bainbridges were of English extraction. The Whites are closely connectd with the Throckmortons. The Whites Coat of Arms was an emblazonry of a spread eagle and a white horse.
Michael is from an unverified file in http://bluehawk.monmouth.edu/rcochran/gen in 2014 which states he m. 7 Aug 1772 Elizabeth Kramer (same name as his daughter-in-law?).

Re: Pennsylvania Milita Act, 17 Mar 1777: The 1777 militia law expired in 1780, but it was immediately re-enacted. The numerical sequence of the Bns in ea Comp. changed to correspond with the relative seniority of their commanding officers. If a number designation of a Bn. changed, it was probably because that the CO was either senior or junior to the other Bn. CO's. Often, the Co. Militia units were activated for guarding prisoners of war at Lancaster.
Based on the record of Michael Traxler's enrollment in the PA Militia, his Revolutionary Service was accepted by The Daughters of the American Revolution. My
DAR National number is 0634404, 2 Feb 1979. Once the connection/relationship to Michael Traxler is established, any descendent of his is eligible for membership in the DAR, SAR or CAR.
According to John Henry Aue's military record (PA State Archives, Harrisburg, PA), he was enrolled in the Berks Co. Militia. At one time, he failed to report when his class and company was called to duty and paid a fine. Apparently, this was very common among the enrollees in the State Militia. Many reasons can be cited: crops to plant or harvest, illness, etc.)

Comments: Relatives have helped to solve the puzzle of the pronunciation of the Traxler name. As these people were of German origin, the name was pronounced
"TROXLER," in the German way. As time went on, and the families integrated into the English-speaking communities, the pronunciation changed to the "flat" Traxler we use today.
Note: Will of Michael Traxler listed in Huntingdon Co.
