The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution Volume 65 page 182 (DAR ID Number: 64519): Michael Loy (or Lei) (1740-1823 DAR: A069120) PAID SUPPLY TAX 1781 Also see DAR ID: 738682 The town of Andesville (originally called Red Hook) was built on a portion of a tract of land purchased by him in October 1788, and sometime after 1842, the name was changed to Loysville in honor of him.
Married 1762 at Greenwich, Cambria County, Pennsylvania, United States, age 21 or 22 years (married 46 or 47 years) to:
Margaretha Lempert, age by marriage 18 or 19 years, daughter of Johann George Lempert and Anna Maria.
Born 1743 at Wurtemberg,, Zweibrücken, Germany, died 1809 at Tyrone, Perry County, Pennsylvania, United States, age 65 or 66 years, buried at Lebanon Lutheran and Reformed Churchyard, Loysville, Perry County, Pennsylvania, United States Records on Ancestry are in conflict over last name: Lambert vs Lempert. Many that have Lambert as a last name for Margaretha have Lempert for her father. They also conflict over where she was born: PA vs Germany. Since many records indicate her father didn’t come over from Germany until after her birth, it seems more likely she was born in Germany.
