Photo Gallery

Photos 1991 by E. W. Williams

This vintage photo labeled "Lehigh Church" is from Memoirs of Rev. Joshua Yeager by A. R. Horne, 1889. The book contains entries such as "Names of Persons Confirmed at Lehigh Church", so the term is clearly meant as the church's name. We believe this image possibly depicts another church in Lehigh County, and was erroneously labeled in this publication. It depicts a 2-story building with tower on the gabeled end; not consistent with our photo of "The Lehigh Churhc/Zion's Lutheran". The church in our photograph has in its graveyard persons listed in the records of the Lehigh Church/Zion's Lutheran Church.

Source Notes

• In the will of Johan Jacob Klein, the term "step-sons" is applied to his sons-in-law Isaac Matturn and Peter Klein. It is assumed that this is a change in usage, and not that he raised them in his home.
• Philip Lauer, married to Elizabeth Wieand of Montgomery Co. PA, was a tailor. They had 12 children including Catherine who had a child with Johan Jacob Kline. (See the will of Jacob Klein). Phillip purchased 47 acres of land lying one mile east of Alburtis from Nicholas Klein on 10 Apr. 1810. For complete biography of Philip Lauer from the History of the Counties of Lehigh & Carbon, by Alfred Mathews, and photos of gravestones at the Lehigh church, see the Phillip Lauer page.
