Jacob Seibert, "whose parents were natives of Switzerland, was born in Bavaria, Germany, about the year 1798. In 1822 he was married to Elizabeth Stein who was born probably in 1800 (She was two years his junior in age). In the year 1827 they, with their family of one child, emigrated to America and settled in Welland County, Ontario, nearly opposite the city of Buffalo, New York, where they resided for a little more than a year. From here they moved to Waterloo County and settled temporarily a little east of Berlin. (In the old log house that stood at the side of the road on Mr. Jas. Brubacher's farm, along this marsh where now Peter M. Weber resides). From here they moved to Wilmot Township and settled on lot No. 4,(Farm now possessed by C. Deitrich) Upper Road, where they resided until their family had arrived at maturity. When old the parents made their home with their son, John, who resides at Petoskey, Michigan, where she died in August, 1870, and he died in 1876. To them was born a family of six children".
