Isaac Stoltzfus Mast (1874-1955) is our grandfather on our Dad’s side. Isaac was born near Morgantown, Pennsylvania. He married Fanny Rebecca Yoder (1878-1971) and lived for a short time in Bellville before moving with family members to North Dakota. He and Fanny had five children (Timothy, Eunice, Charity, Ruth, and Isaac). He was an Amish Mennonite Bishop serving the upper Midwest until 1942 when he returned to Pennsylvania. After returning to Pennsylvania, he served at the Johnstown Mission, filled in at Long Green, Maryland, and preached at many services at Conestoga, Maple Grove, Rock, and other churches in Berks, Lancaster, and Chester counties. His parents were Benuel (1847-1931) and Sarah (Stoltzfus) (1846-1878) Mast. |
