John and Mary (Conser) From
by
James D. Bish

Mary Conser was born on her parent's farm in West Buffalo Township, just North of Miffli nburg, Union County, Pennsylvania on June 6, 1821 near where both sets of his grandparent's , George and Barbara (Fridley) Conser and Christian and Mary (Bensinger) Kaup lived. Mary wa s the first daughter born to her parent's, George Jr. and Maria Catharina (Kaup) Conser joini ng an older brother, Jacob, into the Conser household. Two more brothers, William and John a nd a sister, Elizabeth were born at their Union County, Pennsylvania farm site by the sprin g of 1826. In April of that year, Mary's parents decided to move the family to a rented farm stead forty miles west to the farm located between Potters Mill and Earlysville, (now Tussey ville) in Potter Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania.
Mary's paternal grandmother, Barbara (Fridley) Conser, must have died about 1825. At th at time, her grandfather and Revolutionary War veteran, George Sr. Conser, then 75 years of a ge, left his farm and moved in with Mary's uncle, Jacob Conser, whom lived in Miles Township , Centre County, Pennsylvania. This was only about 10 miles northeast of where the Mary's ne w home was located. While living in Centre County, other siblings to Mary were born into th e Conser household. Sarah was born in 1827, Amelia in 1828, George in 1830, and Susannah wa s born in 1831. During this time, the family attended Emanuel's Church at Tusseyville and al l of the children born at their rented farm between Potters Mill and Tusseyville were baptize d at that church.
In 1826, Mary's uncle, Jacob Conser, decided to move from Miles Township in Centre Count y west to Clarion County, Pennsylvania. This resulted in Mary's grandfather, George Conser S r., moving in with Mary's father and family. They continued to live between Earlysville (no w Tusseyville) and Potters Mill, Centre County, Pennsylvania. From 1826 until his death in 1 828 George Conser Sr. lived with Mary and her family. George Conser Sr. was buried just a cou ple of miles west at "The Loop" or "Emanuel's Reformed Lutheran Church Cemetery" at the nort h edge of Earlysville (now Tusseyville), Potters Township, Centre County, Pennsylvania. Th e grave is currently unmarked although family tradition states that George Conser Sr. is buri ed there.
Only four years after the death of his father, and only months after the birth of his yo ungest daughter, Susannah, George Conser Jr. died suddenly on February 24, 1832, just two wee ks before his fortieth birthday, at his farm near Potters Mill. George Conser Jr. was burie d next to his father at Emanuel's Cemetery. Mary Conser was only ten years of age at her fat her's death. This sudden death stunned the family, as Mary's mother, Maria Catherine, then a ge thirty-two, was left alone with nine children between the ages of six months and fourtee n years.
During this time, Mary's mother probably received some assistance from her parents, Mr . and Mrs. Christian Kaup. It is unknown exactly where Mary, her mother and family lived bet ween the time of her father's death in 1832 and 1835. In 1835 Mary's mother married again, t his time to George Garrett. They were married on May 12, 1835 in Mifflin County, Pennsylvani a, the county just to the south of Centre County. Family tradition maintains that George an d Maria Catharina (Kaup) [Conser] Garrett lived in a few different locations in Pennsylvani a until the 1840s when they moved overland to Knox County, Illinois joining other members o f their family. While some of Mary's siblings began moving away from home during this time , two baby half-brothers and two-half sisters joined in the Conser-Garrett household. Angeli ne Garrett was born in 1835, Benjamin Garrett was born in 1836, Catherine Garrett was born i n 1839, and Christian Garrett was born in 1842. During this time the Conser-Garrett family a lso moved around between Union, Dauphin, and Centre Counties in Pennsylvania.
As many in her family were moving to the west, Sarah remained in Pennsylvania. She marr ied a childhood friend, John From, in 1846 at Tusseyville, Pennsylvania. John was the son o f Jonas and Elizabeth (Working) From. He was born on May 31, 1819 at his parent's farm hom e near Tusseyville. Reverend Henry Rassman baptized him on July 27, 1819 at Emanuel's Churc h at Tusseyville. His parents and grandparents were some of the early pioneers to the Tussey ville area. John's grandfather, Frederick Fromm, was a Revolutionary War veteran having die d at Tusseyville in 1814. Frederick Fromm was buried at Emanuel's Church Cemetery, the sam e cemetery that Mary's father and grandfather were buried. It was at Emanuel's Church in 182 6, where Mary and John first met as children. Their relationship grew over the years resulti ng in their marriage.
After marriage, Mary and John, continued to live and farm near John's parents in the Tus seyville area. They also began to raise a family. In 1847, Catherine Elizabeth From was bor n and in 1850 Sarah Louisa From was born into the household. In 1850, Mary's mother, Maria C atherine (Kaup) Conser-Garrett came to help Mary during and after the birth of Sarah. She i s listed with them in the 1850 Census near Tusseyville.
During the early 1850s, John, Mary, and family decided to join Mary's mother and some o f Mary's brothers and a sister living near Maquon, Knox County, Illinois. By 1855, John an d Mary had purchased a farm near by Mary's brother, John Conser, in Haw Creek Township. It w as in Illinois that their two girls, Catherine and Sarah, grew to adulthood. Catherine marri ed Mr. Allen, a local Maquon boy in the late 1860s.
In 1871, John, Mary, and Sarah decided to relocate to Nebraska, following their two neph ews, William and Jacob Conser, to the Fillmore and York County Nebraska border. On January 3 0, 1872, Sarah From married her cousin, William Conser, at the home of her parents in York Co unty, Nebraska. This left somewhat of a void in John and Mary's home as both of their childr en were now married. John and Mary continued to live near her daughter, Sarah.
By the 1875, John and Mary From had lured her brother, John Conser and the rest of his f amily to York County. Also at that time, Mary's half-brothers, Benjamin and Christian Garret t, also were attracted to the Nebraska frontier, settling on a farmstead nearby in Fillmore C ounty, Nebraska. By 1879, Mary's brother, John had removed westward to Furnas County, Nebras ka. It was not long afterward in which John and Mary From followed the John Consers' to Furn as County, Nebraska. In 1880, John From turned 61 years and Mary turned 59 years of age as t hey settled down near Oxford, Nebraska.
As John and Mary became older and needed more assistance, their son-in-law and daughter, Will iam and Sarah Conser, moved to Oxford, Nebraska in the fall of 1898 to be near them. Willia m and Sarah Conser cared well for John and Mary for the next eight years. Mary (Conser) Fro m passed away at her home in Oxford, Nebraska on February 10, 1906. In addition to her Husban d, John, and daughters, Catherine Allen and Sarah Conser, Mary was survived by half-brothers , Benjamin Garrett of Oxford, Nebraska and Christian Garrett of Grafton, Nebraska. A half-si ster, Catherine Burnett, of Sweet Home, Oregon, and many grandchildren also survived Mary. A fter funeral services Mary was buried near her brother, John Conser, in the Oxford Cemetery . Shortly after the death of Mary, John From's health quickly declined. He passed away on M arch 28, 1906 at the home of his daughter in Oxford, Nebraska. John was buried next to his w ife in Oxford Cemetery after funeral services.
