The source for his birth has not been located, and there currently is no proof that he was part of the family living around the town of Buus, ten miles away.
His parents have been marked uncertain, until a source that records their names can be found.
Sebastian was married in the town of Basel and his first son was baptized at Muttenz.
The villagers of Muttenz, still subjects of the city of Basel, were poor and beginning in the middle of the 18th century, many emigrated to America. [7]
