Birth info from St. Paul's German Lutheran and Reformed Church records (Zelienople, PA), and Deemer Descendants.
From a Deemer Descendant -- 2003: Andrew did not come to Ohio with the rest of the Family. He remained in Pennsylvania and for many years was not heard from., until his brother, John, of West side, Scioto county, Ohio died. Andrew's brother, Jacob, wrote to Andrew informing him of John's death on November 9, 1914. Andrew did come to visit the family in the early 1900's. Andrew ended up in Oklahoma. Andrew's middle name may have been Wesley.
