Daguerreotype of Frederick and Catherine Leiby Kohler 1852 – Frederick Kholer came from Trappe, PA to Newport, clerked in store of Samuel Leiby, married Catherine Leiby in 1852. They moved to Mifflin (Wila) where he had a store. He lived only six months after his marriage, dying of Asiatic cholera. He was a member of I>O>O>F; is buried with is wife on the Samuel Leiby lot, Newport cemetery. Tradition says he was the handsomest man in Perry Co. His friends  esteemed him highly; died at the age of 25. A letter written by his widow from Richfield refutes the trapper location which was first thought correct.
