Note: Should not be confused with Johnathon Ranck (his younger brother).[1]
John was born in 1784 and married Nancy Luther.[2]
The couple had seven children:[2]
John is found, living next door to his brother Johnathon in White Deer Township, Union County Pennsylvania on the 1840 census.[3]
In 1870 he is found on the census, age 86, with Barbara Ranck, 70, most likely a second wife.[4]
His death date and location have not yet been determined.
Date conflict between Barbara Mattis (mother) and this profile; likely one of the dates is wrong.
