I concur with that information, namely that Daniel Arnsberger was her father. The confusion apparently stems mostly from one of her great-granddaughters, Iris Geraldine Sharer (Susan Wymer, Eunice Arnsberger Lightfoot, Susannah Arnsberger) who created some "family history" documents during the 1960s in which was stated that Jacob Arnsberger was the father of Susannah Arnsberger. I believe that she took the information from the 1904 obituary for Susannah Arnsberger in which was also stated that her father was Jacob.
We've got to remember that information in obituaries is supplied by well-meaning relatives who may or may not know the truth.
