Notes:
The fact that Frank Mumma married Ellen George was recorded in Samuel Hertzler Mumma's notebook on page 48. He stated the following.
"7th GENERATION Family No., 210. FRANK H. MUMMA was married to Ella George. They lived in Phila. and are buried there. They had no children."
There were some errors in Samuel's listing, namely Frank's middle initial was "G", and neither he nor Ellen are buried in Philadelphia.

His death year is taken from his tombstone.
Frank G. Mumma is buried in the Carpenter Church Cemetery in West Earl Twp, Lancaster County, PA,

Since Sarah's death date is not recorded, it is unclear where she is buried. Also it is not clear why Frank is buried in the Carpenter Church Cemetery instead of in Philadelphia where he was probably living or in Cumberland County where he was born.
