11. JOHN FREDRICK⁵ FASNACHT (FRIEDRICH⁴, JOHAN CONRAD³, JOHANNES² FASSNACHT, SAMUEL¹) was born December 13, 1805 in Allentown (??), Berks Co., Penn, and died May 01, 1891 in Calhoun, Richland Co., ILL.. He married MARY ELISABETH SCHENK May 18, 1828 in Lebanon, PA. She was born January 28, 1794 in Allentown(??), Berks Co., Penn, and died January 23, 1873 in Calhoun, Richland Co., ILL..

Notes for JOHN FREDRICK FASNACHT:
These birthplaces are per Darlene Davis. She also gave me the info, passed down thru the family, that Elisabeth, Phillip, and Abraham were siblings, with this John Fredrick as their father....Their is a Fredrick Fasnacht living with Jerry (Phillip Jeremiah) and Elisabeth Kutz in the 1880, census which I would imageine was him. On her death cert. Elisabeth Kutz father is listed as John Faucnacht.

Phillip claims Lebanon, PA for place of birth on his civil war military records.

I STRONGLY suspect a connection to the 'Fausnacht's' in Noble, no matter how remote...
Frederick and his wife Maria cited on a deed dated 4/7/1832, living in Lebanon Boro.
1850 census shows Frederick(45), Mary(48), John Friedrich(21), Abraham(16), Philip(16), and Sarah(11) in S. Lebanon Twp.
AAlthough I have never found a marriage record for Elisabeth Fasnacht and his would indicate that to Ohio after 1850.

Children of JOHN FASNACHT and MARY SCHENK are:

23.	i.		ELIZABETH⁶ FASNACHT, b. December 28, 1827, Penn.; d. January 08, 1915, Richland Co., ILL..
	ii.		JOHN FREDRICH FASNACHT, b. May 27, 1830, Lebanon, PA; m. LYDDA CAMP, April 11, 1873, Olney, Illinois.

Notes for JOHN FREDRICH FASNACHT:
This John F. Fasnacht has been illusive and yet interesting. In the 1880 Census when everyone else is accounted for around Calhoun, there is a John Fasnacht living on Whittle ave. in Olney. He had just recently married Lydda Camp on April 11, 1873. He had a "Peanut Stand...." per the Census. He doesn't seem to fit the Noble family and he fits as the mising John Frederick from the 1850 Census.
Using the Census as a guideline, he would have been born in 1830 between Elisabeth and the younger Phillip and Abraham.... NOW, where did he go? After 1880 I lose sight of him again. I wonder if he's connected to the Fasnachts in Marshall? It is SO HARD to differentiate all of the John Fasnachts!

24.	iii.	PHILLIP FASNACHT, b. April 06, 1835, Allentown, Berks Co., Penn; d. March 19, 1907, Newton buried in Dundas.
25.	iv.	ABRAHAM FASNACHT, b. June 06, 1835, Allentown, Berks Co., Penn; d. May 21, 1914, Jasper Co., Ill..
	v.	MARY ANN FASNACHT, b. 1836, Lebanon Co., Penn.; d. August 27, 1842, Lebanon Co., Penn..
	vi.	SARAH FASNACHT, b. 1839

-Most of my information on the first three Fasnacht generations come from the works of my many different cousins. I am particularly indebted to David and Bruce Fosnacht (genealogically speaking my fairly close cousins, also descendants of Fredrich (1784-1823)). Their extensive work has been critical in the quest for getting to know our early Fasnacht ancestors. -About the mentions of Samuel1. I have included a Samuel in my database as our earliest ancestor because I believe in Bruce's instincts that he is 'ours', however I didn't include his line HERE because it isn't yet proven. HOWEVER, Familytreemaker insisted on adding his name as an ancestor for these reports. SO consider Samuel to currently be a possibility.
