Maria Eva Bear was the daughter of Jagley "Jack" Jacob Bar/Baer and Mary Wilson.

Note: Some folks say that Maria Eva Bear was born in Germany and then immigrated to America in 1725.

Maria, a Lutheran, married Johann Ludwig Zirkle during 1725 in Telford, Franconia Twp., Montgomery Co., PA. They had 8 children they named George Henry, Catherine, Michael, Maria Margareta, Andrew, George Adam, Ludwig Lewis and Peter Circle Zirkle.

Maria was married a second time after Ludwig's death. She married Christopher Ottinger in 1748. Since there are no markers in the cemetery, we have no way of knowing whether she would have been buried as a Zirkle or an Ottinger.
