* In the 1900 census Jane Heeter (widow of John A. Heater) says she had 3 children, all living. In 1870 the two oldest children of John A. Heater,living with spouse Jane, are Charles age 14 and Nancy age 12. No census record is found for a John A. Heater/Heeter , or John Heater/Heeter with a wife Jane before 1870 in Pennsylvania. However, a John G. Heeter, with wife Rachel (and a son Charles age 4 and daughter Nancy age 1, and 2 older children), are found in Clarion Co. PA in 1860. We conclude that John Heeter married first to Rachel, who had at least 5 children then died, possibly at the birth of son George in 1860 or 1861. By 1866 John Heeter had remarried to Jane, and their son James E. was born that year, followed by two more children. The change of county of residence and change of spouse may have coincided. | * In the 1900 census Jane Heeter (widow of John A. Heater) says she had 3 children, all living.

Source Notes
- In the 1900 census Jane Heeter (widow of John A. Heater) says she had 3 children, all living. In 1870 the two oldest children of John A. Heater,living with spouse Jane, are Charles age 14 and Nancy age 12. No census record is found for a John A. Heater/Heeter , or John Heater/Heeter with a wife Jane before 1870 in Pennsylvania. However, a John G. Heeter, with wife Rachel (and a son Charles age 4 and daughter Nancy age 1, and 2 older children), are found in Clarion Co. PA in 1860. We conclude that John Heeter married first to Rachel, who had at least 5 children then died, possibly at the birth of son George in 1860 or 1861. By 1866 John Heeter had remarried to Jane, and their son James E. was born that year, followed by two more children. The change of county of residence and change of spouse may have coincided.
- In 1850 census, no Heeter/Heater family is found in Venango Co. PA. Only one family, that of Jacob & Elizabeth Heater & 4 children (Mary, Hannah, Heremiah (sic), and Henry), is found in Clarion Co. PA. Jacob & Elizabeth are age 57, so could possibly be parents of our John Heater who should be about age 21-24, but his is not located.
