Shaver Church Register

AKA St. Abraham's Lutheran Church
Beckleysville

Sometimes lost records reappear. This is the case with the Register for the Shaver Church in Beckleysville, Baltimore County, Maryland. (Today the church is known as the St Abraham's Church in Beckleysville.) Casper Millender was one of the Elders of the church in 1850's and had custody of the ledger. The book, or ledger, was kept by his descendants after Casper's death. We were given a pile of old genealogical research papers that a family member had collected in the 1950s. At the bottom of the stack of old papers, he found the ledger for the Shaver Church starting in 1805. Walt Tracey scanned all the pages and transcribed them, with Norm Hare's help, for this website. Copies of the ledger were given to the Maryland State Archives, the Maryland Historical Society, and the Baltimore County Genealogical Society. The original papers were returned to the church.
