The Angst Family by Straub Baker Aunkst
December 14, 1822 - David Aunkst Was Born
In Delaware Twp., Northumberland Co., PA., Dec. 14, 1822 , the 8th child of Daniel & Mary (Zweyer) Aunkst
1826 - Esther McKean Was born
June 10 1826
the daughter of John & Mary (Hart) McKean
Her maiden name is given on the death certificates of her children Wilson & Hampton & Mary Margaret (Aunkst) Swartz , as well as on her own death certificate, where her parents are named.
(No proof - but I'd hazard a guess that the H. in Esther's middle name is her mothers maiden name, Hart)
September 21 1848 - Married Esther McKean
in the house of the bride by Rev. David Hull, Presbyterian Pastor
1855 - Son Daniel Emera Aunkst is born
I'm a little confused by Daniel, because there was more than one in the area. The death certificate I found, that does match the dates on his tombstone, lists his mother as Hettie Straub? But correctly names his father as David Aunkst. Interestingly, in the 1900 census, Isaac Truckenmiller lived with them. Isaac's mother was a Straub.
Isaac Truckenmiller, Born Feb 2 1856 Died August 21 1939 was the son of Solomon Schwartz Truckenmiller 1820 – 1896 & Eliza Piles Straub. http://heathersgen.blogspot.com/2012/01/solomon-f-truckenmiller-1785-1857.html
He married with he was almost 50 years old, to Mary J. Gearhart
Isaac was Dan's first cousin 4x removed, on his paternal ( Truckenmiller) side.

Daniel appears to have fallen to his death in 1917, if this is the correct death certificate. He never married.
His will lists his siblings and a variety of other relatives.
1857 - Son William Horace Aunkst Was Born
Married Anna Belle Hes, daughter of Samuel & Sarah (Brobst) Hess
Horace was on the Collins Expedition, to build the railroad in Brazil.
