Charles Holdermon 13
years 3moths 1 day. He died 1 September 1852. His stone tells us he was the son
of John & Barbara Holderman. More
than 164 years have gone by and what Charles stone has gone through it’s a
miracle, that it’s still readable and intact. Charles is buried at the
Michael-Walter Cemetery, Middle Smithfield twp. along River Road with in the
Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area. Many of the graves were moved to
Zions Lutheran Church Cemetery up the street. A better description of were
Charles lays at rest is in the middle of a field amongst pickers bushes so big
they would take your arm off trying to get away from them. How I feel about
this… well many words come to mind but DISRESPECTFUL is the biggest. SO….since
I want to keep this G rated. Let’s talk about Charles and know he is not
forgotten. I assumed his mother Barbara
1786-1867 is buried at Zions and I am going to assume his father is there also
under the surname Halterman and there is a John Halterman 1776-1862 buried at
Zions. A while back myself and a few others ladies from all over the USA got
together and researched the Ace family. Charles mother was more than likely
Barbara Ace d/o John. George Ace & Barbara Boney. I did find Halteman John,
Barbary, Abraham, Crissa & Catherine Strunk in the 1850 census for Middle
Smithfield Twp. Monroe co but not Charles. What happened to Charles? Do any
kind of search for the year 1852 and you can find any number of illness Charles
could have gotten.
