Johann George Tesh Family

Continued from Tesh Family Page

Sixth Generation

Children of Johann Georg Tesh and Anna Juliana Fuhrmann
Charles "Carl" Tesh (1808-?) m. Christina Weaver (abt.1815-?)
John Tesh (1810-1846) m. Elizabeth Charles (abt.1811-?)
David Tesh (abt.1814-?) m. Rachel Morris (1816-1885)
Moses Tesh (1818-1872) m. Mary "Mollie" Mock (1819-1877),
d/o George Mock and Amelia Mire/Myer)
Levi Tesh (ca. 1819-?) m. Mary Teague Bodenhamer (widow of John Bodenhamer ,
d/o Moses Teague & Martha Evans)
George Washington Tesh (1820-1894) m. M. Regina Hinshaw (1824-1892)

Levi Tesh appears in the 1850 census age 31, but there's not much room for a birth between Moses, born November 1818, and George W., born October 1820. Could Levi be the twin of Moses, or younger?

Previously we listed Margaret Tesh (abt.1813-bef.1870) as a daughter of Johann Georg Tesh. Margaret Tesh was married to Nicholas Garboden and a daughter of a George Tesh who died in 1859 [Moravian records] or possibly 1860 [Forsyth Co. will abstracts showing probate date of March 1860]. His will names wife Elizabeth, son Lewis who was living in Virginia, daughter Margaret Garbode(n), and daughter Elizabeth.

(Johann) George Tesh lived at least to the 1870 census. In 1850, 1860 and 1870 he is living in the home of son George Washington Tesh.
