      We have seen that Joseph Hostetler remained a taxpayer in Heidelberg Township till 1806. The next we know of him is in 1810, when he purchased from Joseph Root and wife a farm located in Fermanagh Township, Mifflin County, Pa., in what was known as the Lost Creek Valley. The records at Lewistown, Pa., show the inventory of his estate was filed August 24, 1812, and that his widow was named Barbara. She died shortly before January 13, 1813, when an inventory of her estate was filed. In the settlement of her es tate her administrator paid an attorney's fee for advice in the estate of Barbara Kauffman, whom we take to have been Barbara Hostetler. Her husband, Joseph, was buried by the side of his oldest son, John, on the Solomon Brubacker farm, a mile east of Mifflin, Pa.
