American Boyers; by Rev. Charles C. Boyer; revised by Melville James Boyer; The Association of American Boyers, 1940, Allentown, PA; Pages 317 and 318:

"FREDERICK BAYER, s. of Johann Friderich Bayer and his wife Anna Maria, was b. about 1750, as the Pennsylvania Archives show ( See Vol . 4 , page 133 ). He d. in North Manheim Twp., Schuylkill Co., Pa., and is buried at the " White" Church, Orwigsburg, Pa. A red grave stone behind the church shows the spot. He was a soldier of the Revolution, remaining in Virginia through the war. He belonged to the 4th Regiment, Continental Line. See page 1073, Vol. 2, Pennsylvania Archives, and page 133, Vol. 4, where we learn that in 1835 he was 85 years old. From this fact it appears that he must have been born in Germany. After the war he came to North Manheim Township, Berks County, later Schuylkill County, Pa., and took up 800 acres of land. A "Thomas" family lived on parts of this land in "Tumbling Run" about 1910. Frederick m. Margaret Rabenold, of Paradise, near Danville, Pa., and brought her to his North Manheim home. Here all his children were born and raised. He belonged to the old "Red" Church, and why he is buried at the "White" Church is not known to the historian. His children were Michael, Polly, Sarah, John, and Daniel."
