  • huge undertaking, for they are so nu- merous. This much I know of it, (which I think is very reliable) – soon after the close of the Revolutionary War, the following named brethren came to America from Switzerland; Nicholas, Adam, Jacob, Daniel, Caleb, and John, and settled in eastern PA. – and Adam settled in Berks Co. - Caleb lived at one time in Center, PA, and had several sons. was the oldest and to him were born the following, - Daniel, Abraham, Henry, Andrew, George, Susan, Mary, Eliz- abeth, and Catherine. (A grandson of Catherine by the name of Penser is an alumnus of Westfield College from whom I think I can gather some statistics.) Nicholas, was my great grandfather. He removed from Berks to Centre County, Pa, soon after he came to America. I know nothing what became of his sons, Daniel and Abraham; but George, ^Son of Nicolas, lived and died in Blair Co. Pa. near Bald Eagle Furnace. I saw him often. He had but one son, Daniel by name, who lived in Clearfield Co. near Hartzdale, raised a large fam- ily of boys (none of whom amounted to anything) and died there, not many years ago. Andrew, son of Nicholas, lived in Clearfield Co. Pa. near Wallaceton. He had three sons, John, Jacob and George. I knew them well, but do not know what became of them. Henry, son of Nicolas, was my grandfath- -er. He married Catherine Smith, an orphan girl, of purely English blood. To them were born in the following order. – Margaret (who married William Harner), David, Henry (my father, born Jan. 5th 1802, near Centre Furnace, Centre Co. Pa), Mary, (who married Andrew Nerhoff) Andrew, Barbara (who married Simeon Crane) Helen, (who married Daniel son of Adam [one of the original five brothers]), George, William, Char- lotte (who married John Crane [brother of Simeon, above named]) Nancy (who married Richard Hughes, and Stephen.
