obituary from the Fulton Republican (McConnellsburg, Fulton, Pennsylvania) 2 March, 1882

"On January 27th, 1882, at his residence in Taylor township, Fulton county, Pa., Mr. Abraham Witter, aged 95 years, 7 months, and 16 days. "The deceased was born in Frederick county, Md., in the year 1786. He came with his father to Franklin county when eleven years of age, his father settled at Carrick Furnace, and when a young man learned the millwright trade. He followed that trade for 15 or 20 years. He married a daughter of Daniel Pipers, of Amberson's Valley, by whome they had thirteen children, seven girls and six boys, all of which are living. Four of the boys were in the late war at one time, and all got home safe; the deceased was with the militia at Baltimore in war of 1812. Abraham Witter did the millwright work of the Duncannon Iron works, which is still in use yet. In 1812, with his family, he moved to Bedford county, now Fulton, and engaged in farming. He has eighty-four grandchildren, and nineteen great-grandchildren. He had been a member of the United Bretheren church for fifty-four years."
