• Notes

  In 1859 John Royer purchased the grist mill on the grounds of the Ephrata Cloister and erected a house on West Main Street. A 1736 Bible at Landis Valley Farm Museum Archives was probably owned by John Royer's parents. His birth on August 7, 1800, (described as "ein sohn ... seyn mutter heist Catharina") was recorded on a loose page in German fraktur script. The Bible then passed to son John, who recorded the births of his children, Reuben, Daniel, Eliza, John M. and Susan, in English script in the front of the book.
