This single source is no longer useful/available. The individual FamilySearch Person: Q8G8-3ZB does not list any records or other sources. There is a replicated individual FamilySearch Person: KFQK-L4J which lists a single source for a birth in Oct 1729 to father Johannes Emich Reyer [aka Emig Royer]. However, that individual record in FamilySearch also lists, without any source, a death in May 1740 (age 10). This aligns with the will and bible records of Emig Royer described on pages 15-19 in the Royer family in America book by Francis (Francis, Jay Gottwals, Genealogical records of the Royer family in America (Lebanon, PA, 1928). [1]). In that will, Emig describes his son Philip (b-1733) as his oldest child. The will does not mention Johannes Georg.
However Johannes Georg's mother (Emig's wife) presents a different dilemma. She ( Catharine) was 6 years younger than Emig which would make her 16 when Johannes Georg was born in 1729. Not impossible but unlikely. Further the marriage between Emig and Catharine is believed to be in 1731 (I've seen no source for this), two years after Johannes Georg's birth.
There is no record of Johannes Georg getting married of having any children which is also consistent with a death at a young age.
