Jacob H Mase 6/24/1890 Dr Washington Burg, Durlach, Co of Lancaster, Pa age 52 regular practicing physician of 30 years standing, that he has this day carefully examined Henry Christ who was a Private in Co G 195th Regt Pa Vol and finds him afflicted as follows. That said private I find suffering from Atrophy of the muscles of the right leg with an enlargement or bony excrescence of the instep upon the right side of foot caused in my opinion from former attacks of rheumatism. The above causes him to limp from want of power sufficient in said limb. The consequence is and inability to do active manual labor. I know him to have suffered with the above afflictions for the last 17 years He is not able to do 1/3 days work. 6/27/1890 DECLARATION OF SOLDIER FOR PENSION Henry Christ, age 60, not in the service since Jan 21, 1866 That he performed actual service in the War of the Rebellion for the full period of nearly 1 year.

Notes for Susan Dunmoyer: Indian Run Cemetery outside of Mount Airy, Lancaster Co. There are 4 tombstones with the name of Christ on them. All the dates are about illegible. The names are from L-R Hiram Christ, Margaret Christ, Henry Christ, Jefferson Christ. Cannot find out anything on these stones at this time. They look like childrens' stones. I went back to the cemetery in 1999 and the stones are even worse. The only name that I could read was Hiram. Maybe chalk will work. I must try it when it gets warm. There were Dammyer's buried around these stones. I don't know if that means anything or not. I must investigate Henry married to Susanna Dunmoyer a little closer. Possibly these are her parents and children. George Dammyer, Catharine (His date looks like 1792-1861?) Not sure John Dammyer and Rebecca are in front of theirs.
