      From the rootsweb tree as referenced below:" A marriage recorded 4 Aug 1761 at the Christ Lutheran Church in York Co, Pa states that Joseph, son of Abraham, married "Phebe M'Ray, daughter of Hugh (Juh.) Mecmeher". The original record was in the Dutch or German language and the transcriber suggested that the maiden name of Phebe might have been M'Meagher. <ref>http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:a58450&id=I39
