Research Notes

Anna Maria Margaretha died about 1740. Jacob and son Johannes arrived in Philadelphia in September 1741, therefore Anna could not be buried in Pennsylvania. The Find a Grave reference is incorrect. Please do not add it as a source. Jacob was buried there, but his wife clearly died in Switzerland or Alsace.

There are multiple Ancestry Tree references suggesting her 1740 death and burial in America. Please disregard these erroneous sources.
