When a young man of about twenty years of age he, with others, emigrated to America and settled in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

He was a member of the Mennonite body and as we have been informed attended the Line Lexington church for worship. Tradition has it that he had settled for a brief period near the county line of Montgomery and Bucks Counties, on the place now in possession of Samuel Rosenberger. From here he moved to the place now in possession of Henry Rosenberger where he erected a stone house. Here he died in 1771. He had a family of several children, the names of some were"
