[44114] Ancestry.com offers: "Alexander Name Meaning - Scottish, English, German, Dutch; also found in many other cultures: from the personal name Alexander, classical Greek Alexandros, which probably originally meant 'repulser of men (i.e. of the enemy)', from alexein 'to repel' + andros, genitive of aner 'man'. Its popularity in the Middle Ages was due mainly to the Macedonian conqueror, Alexander the Great (356-323 bc) - or rather to the hero of the mythical versions of his exploits that gained currency in the so-called Alexander Romances. The name was also borne by various early Christian saints, including a patriarch of Alexandria (ad c.250-326), whose main achievement was condemning the Arian heresy. The Gaelic form of the personal name is Alasdair, which has given rise to a number of Scottish and Irish patronymic surnames, for example McAllister. Alexander is a common forename in Scotland, often representing an Anglicized form of the Gaelic name."

[14548] Betsey's ancestry is from the DiBella Family Tree in Ancestry.com and is not verified. http://www.jacquielawson.com/viewcard.asp?code=HY27482779 reports her birth date as 19 May 1774 - perhaps this is her baptismal date.
[31594] Find A Grave Memorial 36859602 offers: "Barnabas Davis married in Tewksbury, Gloucester, 1 July 1628, Patience James. She was baptized at Tewksbury 20 October 1603, daughter of John and Elizabeth James, and died at Charlestown 15 November 1690, aged 87 years. They had seven children: Samuel, John, James, Patience Ridland, Barnabas, Nathaniel, & Hopewell (son). In 1641 Barnabas Davis states that he had four children, which does not square with the list given above, and may indicate that the first four children only were born in England, and that sons Barnabas and Nathaniel were each a year or two younger than would be suggested by their depositions. Source: Anderson's Great Migration Study Project." Ancestry.com offers: "James Name Meaning - English: from a personal name that has the same origin as Jacob. However, among English speakers, it is now felt to be a separate name in its own right. This is largely because in the Authorized Version of the Bible (1611) the form James is used in the New Testament as the name of two of Christ's apostles (James the brother of John and James the brother of Andrew), whereas in the Old Testament the brother of Esau is called Jacob. The form James comes from Latin Jacobus via Late Latin Jac(o)mus, which also gave rise to Jaime, the regular form of the name in Spanish (as opposed to the learned Jacobo). See also Jack and Jackman. This is a common surname throughout the British Isles, particularly in South Wales."

[27596] Harness maker; lived at Spring Run. From the files of Mr. Edsel Burdge, Jr.: Path Valley Saddler Continues to Ply Trade, Kept Busy Making Gear By Hand. In the Path Valley a set of handmade harness for a farm horse has not yet become a rarity, and one reason is that Z.A. Piper of Dry Run still plies his trade as a saddler there. He is kept busy. Since the first of the year he has made and sold 10 sets of new gear, and has 8 additional sets ready for delivery. He has made 25 new work bridels and has orders for 10 more. Other production, so far this year includes 60 pairs of checklines and halters. He has orders now on hand which will keep him busy most of the summer. Mr. Piper delivers a bridle or a set of harness custom made from Pennsylvania leather. He obtains his leather from the tannery at Blain, in Perry county. He is the "youngster" of the Piper family, being only 74. His oldest brother, William Piper, is 84, and still works at his trade of cabinet painting at Spring Run. Last week he was busy at the painting of a set of chairs for one of his customers. There are two other brothers in the family who are retired. James Piper, 82, is living in Dry Run. Reuben Piper, 80, lives at the planing mill he operated for many years, located northeast of Dry Run along the back road. The mill is no longer in operation. The fifth member of the family is a sister, Mrs. Martha Doyle, 77, who lives in Lemoyne. Few families can boast so many living members in their seventies and eighties. [in pencil: "1943"]
