compilation of Kunsman family records from various sources. Within the
description of the document is a claim that Clara affirmed this data before a
Notary Public. A copy of the file was provided to me by by cousin Betti McGowan.

Betti obtained it from a Beverly Fegley via US Mail. Photo copy of page 10 from
a book "Our Poetic Friend" publisher unknown. It list the children of PHilip
Kunsman but it has at least one error - a daughter Elizabeth b. 4-14-1814.
Elizabeth is actually the daughter of Philip's oldest son Daniel.
