| Census | 1850 | He appeared in the census 1850 in Hamilton Township, Monroe County, Pennsylvania. Philip is listed as: Philip Stametz (age 43, Innkeeper) July (age 40) William (age 18) Catharine (age 16) George (age 13) James (age 12) Emeline (age 9) Elizabeth (age 7) Henryetta (age 6) Matilda (age 3) Neighbors: Samuel Mengh, Jacob Meckis, Jacob Newhart, Barnet Kemmerer, Joseph C.

| Death | 9 November 1881 | He died on 9 November 1881 Findagrave lists a different birthdate for Philip, which makes me think his father may have been one of the other Steinmetz's. But there is no 1807 Philip listed in the Plainfield Church baptism records. George has boys indicated in the 1810 census, so that could be a possibility. |
