AbstractThe family of Casper and Elizabeth Glattfelder departed their home in 1743, settling initially in Pennsylvania's York County. Descendants (some with the "Americanized" name of Clodfelter) moved to North Carolina, where later (now married into the name Abernethy) they would move in 1888 to Texas.
