      MICROFILM # 1036065, ITEM 3. SEE PAGE 76, # 45 LEVI ROSENKRAN, SON OF COL.

      JOHN (16). LEVI REPORTEDLY A FARMER, BUSINESSMAN AND A SCHOOL TEACHER. HE

      BECAME BLIND IN HIS OLD AGE, AND WAS A PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN.

      "Levi married Polly Hankinson, of Stillwater, 1797, and there . . . he reared

      his six sons." "A romantic story of Levi's early courtship . . . Polly

      Hankinson, from across the Blue Ridge, had once visited at the house of John

      Layton's father . . . she related the following incident: Sometime prior to

      this (visit) she had attended a public gathering on horseback. After ,starting

      for her home, a young man, also on horseback, came riding up behind her with

      the apparent intention of approaching by her side, when deeming his action

      somewhat presumptuous (sic) she put spurs to her horse and left him in the

      distance to turn about or pursue his onward journey chagrined and alone. The

      young man was Levi Rosenkrans. After consideration, Polly concluded that she

      had been somewhat hasty in thus leaving him, and regretted having done so.

      John Layton, being a friend of both, tendered his services in the way of an

      apology, or explanation to Levi. Levi renewed his attentions with good

      success, and they were eventually married at stillwater, as the church records

      show. The following record is found there:"Married- at the home of her father,

      in Stillwater, Polly Hankinson to Levi Rosenkrans, of Walpack.""
