Biography

Elisabetha Catharina Heÿl was born at Hundsbach on January 4, 1733. She was the daughter of Peter Heÿl, citizen at Hundsbach, and his wife Susanna Catharina (Müller) Heÿl. The pastor later added a note in the margin of the Taufbuch: "this child's father has gone to Pennsylvania."[1]

Notes

In 1938 Mrs. Elizabeth Hoyle Rucker mistakenly published that the wife of North Carolina's pioneer Peter Heÿl was Catherine Dales born 10 April 1714 and died 7 April 1787.[2] Catherine Dales, however, was the wife of "Peiter Heyl," who was the son of Adam Heyel. Peiter Heyl and Catherine Dales were different people than Peter and Susanna (Müller) Heÿl of North Carolina; see Peter Heyl.

Children

Mrs. Rucker published that Katrina Hoyl and Bostian Bess had thirteen children.[3]

  2. Thomas Bess born 1752

The family tree document by my great grandfather James Lee Love replicates the "Catherine Dales" error, so he was likely working from the same mistaken source.
