The only John Yarger in Hartleton in the 1880 census, just after the 1875 letter from R. V. Glover indicating that the cousin, John Yarger, of my GG Grandfather, John Yarger, lived in Hartleton. This letter then implies that this Ohn Yarger's father Jacob Yarger was a brother to my 3G Grandfather George Yarger. - EWH
