AARON BELLISFIELD HOME PAGE
9a25. Aaron Bellisfield (3/21/1833-9/1/1893) is the son of Simon Bellisfield and Judith Schug. They may be found on the Elizabeth Werkheiser page. Just follow the link at the bottom of the page. Aaron married Leah Werkheiser (2/25/1832-4/23/1898). Aaron and Leah are buried in the Forks Cemetery. Aaron Bellisfield was a kind of jack-of-all-trades in the Forks area. His great granddaughter has a very old detailed notebook that Aaron kept of all the work he did and a strict accounting of his payments, expenditures, and transactions with all the individuals in the area, including many names that were common to the area at the time. She will be transcribing this information and posting it at a later date. Thank you Kimberly for the following information. Aaron and Leah had three children:
