General Notes:
Tombstone inscription says wife of Gideon
I am trying to find Susanna's Parents. I believe due to the spelling of her name on her daughters Death Certificate that her name was Moyer not Meyer.
In "Beyond the Blue Mountain: Bartholomew Pastoral Records: Baptisms, Births, Marriages, Funerals Carbon County, Lehigh County, Schuylkill County and Northampton County Pennsylvania" Carolyn Zimmerman Johns, Susanna's last name is listed at Moyer on the Baptism of her daughter Mary Anna Rehrig
On the 1850 Census for East Penn Carbon Co I found 2 people who could be my Susanna.
