    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. FHL book 929.273 "Some Descendants of Michael Stoker 1731-1819," compiled by Kathleen Stoker Overton (ca. 2003?), p. 63. This book does a good job of tracing several non-Mormon descendancy lines from the original immigrant. There is a birth date discrepancy.
      "Eva Catharina Stoker
      "Eva Catharina Stoker was born 30 May 1784 in Frederick, Frederick County, Maryland to Michael Stoker and Anna Maria (Mary) Adams. Her Father registered her birth in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Frederick but several years after the fact. She grew up with loving parents. When she was about 21 years old, a large family group moved to Somerset, Perry County, Ohio where they established a nice farm. She was probably known as Kitty and married Peter Hildebaugh on 25 September 1806 in Fairfield County. Peter probably died young as he left few records. They had one son who is:
      1- George Hildebaugh born about 1807 in Perry County, Ohio. His Aunt, Mary Stoker left him $100.00 in her will dated 1839.
      On 15 April 1830 Catharina married Samuel Crosky in Perry County, Ohio. He had three young children who she helped raise. They show on the 1850 and 1860 Census in Perry County but are no longer there after that. The children of Samuel Crosky are:
      1- Jane Crosky born 1822 in Perry County, Ohio.
      2- Robert Crosky born 1823 in Perry County, Ohio.
      3- John Crosky born 1825 in Perry County, Ohio. He married Susanna Bathesar on 8 January 1852 in Perry County, Ohio.
      Their death dates are unknown.
