Thank You for visiting our dearly loved and cherished Grandma Mary. This lady changed the destiny of a man who crossed the European continent and the Atlantic ocean while pregnant and helped shape a young nation. We appreciate your visit very much. God bless.
Mary's name is accurate on the memorial and is recorded in records found in Tyrol, Austria.It appears on records documenting their immigration. Anna Maria "Mary" Schulte (Schultheis/Fischer) Stoneberger. Maiden name is referenced in records as Schulte, Schultheis, Fischer. Thus the use of all three variations for the maiden name are found in use. Perhaps her mother remarried and she was then adopted by her step-father, but that is undetermined. An alias may have been used since they were fleeing Europe for their lives, but that cannot be accurately determined either. Shultheis seems to be most documented.
༺⊰❁ Here Begins the Saga of Frederick, Mary & John Isaiah Stonebarger, a Love Story and a Story on the Quest for Freedom.......
Friedrich Johann Stoneberger (b. 1730, d. 1806)
❁ "Friedrich Johann Stoneberger was born 1730 in Austria, Tyrol, and died 1806. He married Mary.
Notes for Friedrich Johann Stoneberger:
Notes by Phyllis Crabill Dunlavy. She uses the information compiled by Bertha Steinberger who left it unfinished when she died in 1983.
Steinberger according to the German dictionary means"Stone Mountain". This is probably an indication that the family originated in a mountainous country. It is thought that the family came to America from Austria and many records of the family exist in the at country today. the name is spelled various ways, Steenberger, Steenbarger, Steinbarger, Stoneberger, Steenbergen.
Frederick Stoneberger signed list in the 12, Sept. 1750 to come to America. In 1783 his wife's name was given as Mary--Austrian born. The Steinberger family originated in the Tyrol of Austria, the earliest record was one of Duke John Steinberger born around 1700. The Duke was supposed to have had a son born around 1725 or 1730. The son married against his father's wishes and booked passage for himself and his bride to come to America in 1750. On the day of their arrival at Baltimore, Maryland a son was born to the couple. This new American, their first born was Christened John [Isaiah] Steinberger.(Whew, being on ship pregnant, miracle he was born.)
Frederick had three land surveys done according to records, 1776 - 209 acres, 1777 - 43 acres, 1778 - 210 acres. In 1795 Frederick and his wife Mary and Mathias Friermond deeded to John Nauman (Norman) and Daniel Snyder, Trustees for the Lutheran and Presbyterian Congregations for a church and cemetery at Stony Run on a branch of the South Shenandoah River. It was known as the Stoneburger Church. Frederick and Mary are believed to be buried there.

Burial: Stoneburger Cemetary, Stony Run, Shenandoah River, Virginia."
❁༻ Children of Friedrich Johann and Mary Shultheis (Schulte) Stoneberger are:
1) John Otto Isaiah Steinberger, b. 1750, Shenandoah co VA681, d. 1823, final resting place of German twp Bartholomew County, OH.
September 12, 1750, arrival of the ship Priscilla" with William Wilson, Master, from Rotterdam, Holland, last port Cewes, England, Port of Baltimore, Maryland, then traveled to the Port of Philadelphia—210 passengers. Among them were the following persons: John Adams Roth (Rhodes), Michael Roth, John Jacob Neuman (Nauman, Norman), and Frederick Stonebarger (Friederich Johann Stonebarger).
★November 3, 1750, Voyage 157, the ship Brotherhood with John Thompson as Captain left Rotterdam, Holland via Cewes, England with 300 passengers. Included was Christian Neuman (Norman).
★September 9, 1738, Voyage 53, the ship Glasgow with Walter Sterling, Master, came from Rotterdam, Holland via Cewes, England with 349 passengers. Among them were John Christian [Gottlieb] Neuman (Norman) and Carl Neuman (Norman).
On the American Revolutionary War Rolls (Vol. 1, page 603) under the command of Michael Raeder, Captain and Major of the Militia, Shenandoah Valley, Virginia are listed Frederick Stonebager, John Stonebarger, Lewis Stonebarger, Michael Roth (Rhodes), Joseph Ruffner, Benjamin and Isack Strickler.
Michael Roth (Rhodes) is the grandfather of Susan Crabill who in our records is said to have at some time married John Nauman Steinberger, second son of John Isaiah Steinberger (Stoneberger) who married Elizabeth Nauman. John Isaiah and Elizabeth had George Washington Elias Steenbager (Steinberger) who married Nancy Lockard and they had Isaac Steinberger of Champaign County, Ohio. Abraham Strickler (Indian trader and frontiersman) married Anna Marie Ruffner (who is a descendant of Peter "Porter" Ruffner), they had Joseph Strickler who married Barbara Harnish. Joseph and Barbara had Catherine Stickler. Catherine married George Ward and they had Maria "Mariah" Ward who married Isaac Steinberger of Champaign County, Ohio. This being the difference in our linage from the rest of the Steinbergers in Ohio. Also Benjamin Strickler is related to the Stricklers in Carherine's line and is the father of Ann who married Michael Rhodes. We have also established which of the Normans is our line. John Christian Nauman, son of John Gottlieb Christian (1729-1791) and Dorothea Elizabeth (Hartman) Nauman, who married Christina Stoneberger 1774. This is our Nauman/Norman linage.
Anna Maria "Mary" Schulte (Schultheis)(Fischer) Stoneberger was born 1728 in Tyrol, Austria and was the daughter of Heinrich and Anna Maria Fischer. Mary married Johann Friederich Stoneberger. They sailed for American in 1750.
Known children of Frederick and wife Mary:
1) John Isaiah Stoneberger/Steinbeger (Stonebarger) b. 9/12/1750 Baltimore, Baltimore County, Maryland. Married 1) Elizabeth Nauman and 2) Elizabeth Friermoot. D. 1821 in Bartholomew County, Indiana.
2) Lewis (Luis) Stoneberger, B. 1754 in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Married 1) Sussannah Harmon and 2) Mary Ann Finter. D. October 20, 1820 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Lewis and Mary had a son named John Stoneberger born in 1789 who married Christina "Steney" Robsen October of 1812. This John is sometimes confused with his uncle John Isaiah, and Christina "Steney" Robsen is sometimes mistaken for her husband's aunt Christina who is mentioned next.
3) Christina Stoneberger Nauman b. 1756 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married John Christian Norman in 1774 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. John b. October 17, 1753 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (son of John Gottlieb and Dorothea Elizabeth Hartman Naumann). D. 1835 in Page County Virginia.
4) Dorothy "Dolly" Stoneberger b. 1761, Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married Jacob Judy on June 6, 1788 in Page County, Virginia. D. in Ohio.
5) Johann Frederick Stoneberger, Jr. b. February 17, 1769 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married Magdalene Unknown in 1794. He moved to northern Indiana in about 1836. D. May 18, 1847 in Ohio. (This child may be whom others have confused with the elder brother John Isaiah Stonebarger/Steinberger causing the date if 1760 to appear as the elder brother's birth year, which is incorrect. The elder brother was buried in his Continental uniform from the Revolutionary War, thus he had to have been born well before 1760. He was grown enough when he fought in the Revolution. Also, he is registered as a soldier and not as a drummer, fife player, or water carrier, which is how he would have been registered if he had been born in 1760 and not as a soldier.)
Mary was born in 1728 a commoner. We do know she truly loved Frederick, her true love and husband, and sailed almost half the world and traveled inland to the Shenandoah County, VA. to live her life with him and to raise his beloved children. Frederich and Mary married on June 8, 1746 in Mauerkirchen, Austria. From there we believe they may have fled from Mauerkirchen, Austria to Braunau Am Inn, Austria where they were first registared as a married couple. From there they fled for their lives to Munich, Bavaria, Germany, given solace among the Bavarians. From there they fled to Rotterdam, Holland and boarded the "Priscilla" bound for America. Bound for freedom to live their life free from servitude and to live a life in which they answered only to God and themselves. They came to this great nation when it was only young, forged out it's freedom as well as their own. They were integral to the nation's spread westward and it's growth to become one of the leading countries of the world. They followed their own North Star of Freedom. For this you will always be remembered, dear Mary, mother of the Steinbergers in America.
Mary passed away in Stoney Run, Shenandoah County (which is now Page County), Virginia and is buried next to her beloved Frederick Stonebarger. Mary passed away before Frederick. There are no headstones remaining in the entire cemetery.
Mary may you rest in the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ until the resurrection day.
When Frederick and Mary fled Austria and then Germany they had very little with them. When this man passed away he was able to give a mountain away! That is what love can do-it can move mountains and forge a new nation after helping it's new birth into freedom. It can build a legacy as big as a mountain to leave future children. His best legacy was our freedom in a new nation and a rich history which was forged out of wilderness, blood, sweat, and tears~with Mary at his side all the way. They were bold, tenacious, determined and strong willed. Most of all they were courageous!

TAP THE PHOTOS AND YOU WILL BE ABLE TO CLEARLY READ THE INFORMATION CONCERNING THE STEINBERGER LINAGE. REGISTERED WITH THE DAUGHTER's of the AMERICAN REVOLUTION (DAR).
Thank You for visiting our dearly loved and cherished Grandma Mary. This lady changed the destiny of a man who crossed the European continent and the Atlantic ocean while pregnant and helped shape a young nation. We appreciate your visit very much. God bless.
Mary's name is accurate on the memorial and is recorded in records found in Tyrol, Austria.It appears on records documenting their immigration. Anna Maria "Mary" Schulte (Schultheis/Fischer) Stoneberger. Maiden name is referenced in records as Schulte, Schultheis, Fischer. Thus the use of all three variations for the maiden name are found in use. Perhaps her mother remarried and she was then adopted by her step-father, but that is undetermined. An alias may have been used since they were fleeing Europe for their lives, but that cannot be accurately determined either. Shultheis seems to be most documented.
༺⊰❁ Here Begins the Saga of Frederick, Mary & John Isaiah Stonebarger, a Love Story and a Story on the Quest for Freedom.......
Friedrich Johann Stoneberger (b. 1730, d. 1806)
❁ "Friedrich Johann Stoneberger was born 1730 in Austria, Tyrol, and died 1806. He married Mary.
Notes for Friedrich Johann Stoneberger:
Notes by Phyllis Crabill Dunlavy. She uses the information compiled by Bertha Steinberger who left it unfinished when she died in 1983.
Steinberger according to the German dictionary means"Stone Mountain". This is probably an indication that the family originated in a mountainous country. It is thought that the family came to America from Austria and many records of the family exist in the at country today. the name is spelled various ways, Steenberger, Steenbarger, Steinbarger, Stoneberger, Steenbergen.
Frederick Stoneberger signed list in the 12, Sept. 1750 to come to America. In 1783 his wife's name was given as Mary--Austrian born. The Steinberger family originated in the Tyrol of Austria, the earliest record was one of Duke John Steinberger born around 1700. The Duke was supposed to have had a son born around 1725 or 1730. The son married against his father's wishes and booked passage for himself and his bride to come to America in 1750. On the day of their arrival at Baltimore, Maryland a son was born to the couple. This new American, their first born was Christened John [Isaiah] Steinberger.(Whew, being on ship pregnant, miracle he was born.)
Frederick had three land surveys done according to records, 1776 - 209 acres, 1777 - 43 acres, 1778 - 210 acres. In 1795 Frederick and his wife Mary and Mathias Friermond deeded to John Nauman (Norman) and Daniel Snyder, Trustees for the Lutheran and Presbyterian Congregations for a church and cemetery at Stony Run on a branch of the South Shenandoah River. It was known as the Stoneburger Church. Frederick and Mary are believed to be buried there.

❁༻ Children of Friedrich Johann and Mary Shultheis (Schulte) Stoneberger are:
1) John Otto Isaiah Steinberger, b. 1750, Shenandoah co VA681, d. 1823, final resting place of German twp Bartholomew County, OH.
September 12, 1750, arrival of the ship Priscilla" with William Wilson, Master, from Rotterdam, Holland, last port Cewes, England, Port of Baltimore, Maryland, then traveled to the Port of Philadelphia—210 passengers. Among them were the following persons: John Adams Roth (Rhodes), Michael Roth, John Jacob Neuman (Nauman, Norman), and Frederick Stonebarger (Friederich Johann Stonebarger).
★November 3, 1750, Voyage 157, the ship Brotherhood with John Thompson as Captain left Rotterdam, Holland via Cewes, England with 300 passengers. Included was Christian Neuman (Norman).
★September 9, 1738, Voyage 53, the ship Glasgow with Walter Sterling, Master, came from Rotterdam, Holland via Cewes, England with 349 passengers. Among them were John Christian [Gottlieb] Neuman (Norman) and Carl Neuman (Norman).
On the American Revolutionary War Rolls (Vol. 1, page 603) under the command of Michael Raeder, Captain and Major of the Militia, Shenandoah Valley, Virginia are listed Frederick Stonebager, John Stonebarger, Lewis Stonebarger, Michael Roth (Rhodes), Joseph Ruffner, Benjamin and Isack Strickler.
Michael Roth (Rhodes) is the grandfather of Susan Crabill who in our records is said to have at some time married John Nauman Steinberger, second son of John Isaiah Steinberger (Stoneberger) who married Elizabeth Nauman. John Isaiah and Elizabeth had George Washington Elias Steenbager (Steinberger) who married Nancy Lockard and they had Isaac Steinberger of Champaign County, Ohio. Abraham Strickler (Indian trader and frontiersman) married Anna Marie Ruffner (who is a descendant of Peter "Porter" Ruffner), they had Joseph Strickler who married Barbara Harnish. Joseph and Barbara had Catherine Stickler. Catherine married George Ward and they had Maria "Mariah" Ward who married Isaac Steinberger of Champaign County, Ohio. This being the difference in our linage from the rest of the Steinbergers in Ohio. Also Benjamin Strickler is related to the Stricklers in Carherine's line and is the father of Ann who married Michael Rhodes. We have also established which of the Normans is our line. John Christian Nauman, son of John Gottlieb Christian (1729-1791) and Dorothea Elizabeth (Hartman) Nauman, who married Christina Stoneberger 1774. This is our Nauman/Norman linage.
Anna Maria "Mary" Schulte (Schultheis)(Fischer) Stoneberger was born 1728 in Tyrol, Austria and was the daughter of Heinrich and Anna Maria Fischer. Mary married Johann Friederich Stoneberger. They sailed for American in 1750.
Known children of Frederick and wife Mary:
1) John Isaiah Stoneberger/Steinbeger (Stonebarger) b. 9/12/1750 Baltimore, Baltimore County, Maryland. Married 1) Elizabeth Nauman and 2) Elizabeth Friermoot. D. 1821 in Bartholomew County, Indiana.
2) Lewis (Luis) Stoneberger, B. 1754 in Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. Married 1) Sussannah Harmon and 2) Mary Ann Finter. D. October 20, 1820 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Lewis and Mary had a son named John Stoneberger born in 1789 who married Christina "Steney" Robsen October of 1812. This John is sometimes confused with his uncle John Isaiah, and Christina "Steney" Robsen is sometimes mistaken for her husband's aunt Christina who is mentioned next.
3) Christina Stoneberger Nauman b. 1756 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married John Christian Norman in 1774 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. John b. October 17, 1753 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania (son of John Gottlieb and Dorothea Elizabeth Hartman Naumann). D. 1835 in Page County Virginia.
4) Dorothy "Dolly" Stoneberger b. 1761, Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married Jacob Judy on June 6, 1788 in Page County, Virginia. D. in Ohio.
5) Johann Frederick Stoneberger, Jr. b. February 17, 1769 in Shenandoah, Page County, Virginia. Married Magdalene Unknown in 1794. He moved to northern Indiana in about 1836. D. May 18, 1847 in Ohio. (This child may be whom others have confused with the elder brother John Isaiah Stonebarger/Steinberger causing the date if 1760 to appear as the elder brother's birth year, which is incorrect. The elder brother was buried in his Continental uniform from the Revolutionary War, thus he had to have been born well before 1760. He was grown enough when he fought in the Revolution. Also, he is registered as a soldier and not as a drummer, fife player, or water carrier, which is how he would have been registered if he had been born in 1760 and not as a soldier.)
Mary was born in 1728 a commoner. We do know she truly loved Frederick, her true love and husband, and sailed almost half the world and traveled inland to the Shenandoah County, VA. to live her life with him and to raise his beloved children. Frederich and Mary married on June 8, 1746 in Mauerkirchen, Austria. From there we believe they may have fled from Mauerkirchen, Austria to Braunau Am Inn, Austria where they were first registared as a married couple. From there they fled for their lives to Munich, Bavaria, Germany, given solace among the Bavarians. From there they fled to Rotterdam, Holland and boarded the "Priscilla" bound for America. Bound for freedom to live their life free from servitude and to live a life in which they answered only to God and themselves. They came to this great nation when it was only young, forged out it's freedom as well as their own. They were integral to the nation's spread westward and it's growth to become one of the leading countries of the world. They followed their own North Star of Freedom. For this you will always be remembered, dear Mary, mother of the Steinbergers in America.
Mary passed away in Stoney Run, Shenandoah County (which is now Page County), Virginia and is buried next to her beloved Frederick Stonebarger. Mary passed away before Frederick. There are no headstones remaining in the entire cemetery.
Mary may you rest in the peace of our Lord Jesus Christ until the resurrection day.
When Frederick and Mary fled Austria and then Germany they had very little with them. When this man passed away he was able to give a mountain away! That is what love can do-it can move mountains and forge a new nation after helping it's new birth into freedom. It can build a legacy as big as a mountain to leave future children. His best legacy was our freedom in a new nation and a rich history which was forged out of wilderness, blood, sweat, and tears~with Mary at his side all the way. They were bold, tenacious, determined and strong willed. Most of all they were courageous!
