Mt. Joy Man
Saw 7 Generations
Mr. Martin N. Brubaker Can Boast of
That Proud Distinction


that Mr. Brubaker is by no means a
“spring chicken,” is the only man:
ner in which such an experience
could be possible.

Several weekg ago there appeared
in these columns an article stating
that Mr. Michael Engle of Elizabeth.
town, saw members of six genera
tions. Since that article appeared
there were several other persons
thruout this county - that can boast
of a similar experience but now we
want to call the attention of our
readerg to the fact that we have,
right here in Mount Joy, a man that
has seen seven generations.
Our townsman and friend, Mr.
Martin N. Brubaker, scrivener, sur-
veyor, notary public, residing on
East Main street, can boast of hav-
ing seen seven generations, which
is one better than Mr. Engle, al-
though the latter’s experience is a
rare one. Here’s the data.
Mr. Brubaker was born in 1835
and is therefore 81 years old. Up
until the time he was nine years
old he frequently visited his great
grandmother, Mrs. Susan Erb Bru-
“baker, wife of Jacob ‘Brubaker. Mrs.
Brubaker was born in 1767 and died
in 1844, at which time Mr. Martin N.
Brubaker of this place was nine
years old. He attended the funeral
of Mrs. Brubaker, who died at the. We doubt whether there is a man

The third was

baker’s first cousin Anna B. Reist,
who was the wife of Henry 8. Nis-

was Mr. Henry S. Nissley’s son, Mr.
Levi R. Nissley, who at present re-
sides at Nissley’s Mill, in Bast Done-
gal township.
The sixth was Levi R. Nissley’s
son Mr. Harry N. Nissly, cashier of
the Union National bank in this
place while the seventh is Mr. H. N.
Nissly’s son Raymond, of this place,
who is now a student at Lebanon
Valley College, Annville. The latter
young man is now eighteen years
of age and Mr. Brubaker can boast
of having seen seven distinct
generations during all that time.

Big Live Bird Shoot Held Here Last
Friday Afternoon
The first annual live bird shoot of
the Mount Joy Gun Club was held
here on Friday afternoon when
there was a good fleld of gunners as
well as a number of spectators in
attendance. Nine gunnerg faced the
traps and considering the fact that
all shot without any practice what-
ever, the scores are considered very
good. Quite a number were present
for “strays” and they, too, had their
share of sport. The scOres are ap-
