ANNA GERTRUDE "Charity" Reiterin

(1694 - 4 Dec 1761)



There is also a gravestone, Oldwick, Hunterdon, NJ. This wife is unknown, but the age would be about the same as this Baltis - did his wife used an Anglicized name or is this a wife of his later years?
Here lies the Body of CHARITY the Wife of Baltes Pickel Who Departed this Life December the 4th, 1761 in the 77th Year of her Age. My Life is run. My Grave you see. Prepare for Death And Follow Me.
She would have been born in 1684.

I have since discovered that "Charity" is used among German families as a pet name for "Gertrude". Others have stated she could not have had the surname Reiterin.
