Biography

Johannes ("Hannes") was born about 1703 in Guntersblum, Germany.^[1] He was the son of Johann Philipp Kreisler and Catharine (Braun) Kreisler.

In 1709, his family departed for America, arriving in New York in June 1710. While most of the Palatine migrants who arrived at that time were soon transported north to Livingston Manor and vicinity, his family was part of a group of about 350 immigrants who remained in the city of New York until the spring of 1711. The family of Johann Phillip Greisler was enumerated on a subsistence list of Palatines in New York, consisting of Johann Philip, 40; Catherine, 40; John George, 11; and Johannes, 7. In subsistence lists from the year 1711, the family was counted as including one child under age 10, but in a list dated 25 March 1712, Johannes appears to be counted as a person above the age of ten. This led Brownyard to suggest that he was born about 1701.^[2]

Hannes married Eva Catharina Manck (born: 1701 in Germany) by about 1725 in New York. Record of their marriage has not been found.
