Maria was the wife of Johann Tobias.

A marriage confirmation to John "Tobig" on September 21, 1779 was extracted from the church records of Christ Lutheran Church, located in Stouchsburg, Berks county, PA. Magdelena was also named as the wife of John Tobias in her husband's administration papers dated September 30, 1809, and named as one of three co-executors by the courts. These papers are on record and can be found in the Berks County courthouse, Adm. 7, page 114. Some years later Magdelena moved out of Berks county into Schuylkill, then Dauphin county, where she appeared as head of household in the 1820 US PA census records residing in Lykens Twp., with one male living with her, approximating her age at abt. 60. On the next census "line" is Magdelena's son Joseph and his young family.
