    sp (Jacob Faust and Catharine Leiby) -> 1750 to Valentine Gerhart and wf (I think
    the records were reversed here)
    sp (Henry w/ Anna Catharine Leiby) -> 1751, Peter Kartin and wf

    sp - 1756, George Breiner, a tailor, and Anna Maria Hattinger, single (Hatinger?)
    sp- 1757, Jacob Kuntz and Anna Margaretha (note - 1756 at 1st Ref Lancaster?)
    sp - 1759, Johannes Kuntz and Maria Magdalena Wirth
    sp - 1764, Henrich Schwenk and wf Barbara [Wirth]
    sp - 1767, Henrich Rausch and Catharine, single d/o RevMischler
    sp -> 1775, George Nicholas Wenner and Anna Maria [Bollender] (at Jordan Ref Church)
    (note: Wirth daughters are d/o Jacob of Greenwich)

    I believe the fact that Henry shows up with Anna Catharina Leiby shortly before
    the birth of their first child (and Anna Catharina - having both names match -
    seems to increase the odds that it wasn't entirely by chance). And Anna Catharina
    is shown from the ship list to be just the right age. Others have believed the baptismal
    record that Anna Catharine married Jacob Faust, and then she disappeared and
    he remarried someone else. But I think the baptismal record is either recorded
    or transcribed wrong. In most of the records, they are of the form (a typical
    format) Child of Father and wf, date, Sponsors: "Person and wf"or "Single
    Person and Single Person". Since the child was named for a sponsor in other adjacent
    records at Dunkels, so here, it would be more likely to have Catharine being named after
    the sponsor Catharine Leiby and the Gerharts asthe parents. The records in my translation
    are:

    "Catharine of Jacob Faustand Catharine Leiby, bapt. December 14, 1750. Sponsors:
    Valentine Gerhart and wife."
    "John Henry of Peter Kartin and wife, bapt. November, 1751. Sponsors: John Henry
    Bollender and Anna Cath. Leiby."

    The quality of other known family names in the Dunkel's Church records also calls into
    question the quality of these records. Only a search of the originals would really show the answer. But I believe enough is shown to question the simple notion regarding Anna Catharine marrying Jacob Faust (and then showing up single in 1751 with Henry
    Bollender). This hunch really needs to find some association at least between the
    Bollender family and the Leiby's (in sponsors or something...) Until then, this is just
    speculative.

    Elizabeth and Susanna (minors)

    indicates the 180 acres was near the blue Mountain in Greenwich Township...

    Note - since Henry died young (46) in 1775, I wonder if it was related to the Revolutionary
    War.

    George married Anna Catharina LEIBY Between 1751 and 1752, Greenwich Twp, Berks Co, PA. Anna (daughter of Friederich LEIBY and Maria Magdalena UNKNOWN) was born 13 Sep 1732, Steinsfurt, Heidelberg, Baden, Germany; died Aft 1784, Greenwich Twp, Berks Co, PA. [Group Sheet]

    Her being a Leiby is still speculative. See notes under other individuals.

    LDS says it's the birth date (or really baptism?)

    ? did widow Catharine remarry to John Schudy/Tschudy/Zudy?? or
    is this daughter Elisabeth Catharine?

    Notes:

    The estate records for Nicholas Bolander suggest Henrich was the only heir.

    Orphans Court 14 May 1762: "Henry Polander eldest son and Heir of Nicholas
    Polander decd..."

    1762, inquisition: "Henry Pollander Son and Heir of Nicholas Pollander decd...
    that the Petitioner's Father the said Intestate dyed aboutfive years ago leaving a
    Widow and Issue a Son, to wit, the Petitioner...."

    men who checked land: Sebastian Zimmerman, George Merckel, Frederick
    Delaplanck, Joseph Sikfridt?, Frederick Cremer, Peter Beell, Michael Lesher,
    Leonard Reber, Jacob Hill, Daniel Allspach, and Frederick Hauer.

    Land was worth 100 pounds... 1/3rd is the dower for widow Mary

    Note: like his son, Nicholas dies young (about 48) and I wonder if it related to the French
    and Indian War going on at the time.

    From Floyd's History of Northumberland County:
    The Leiby family is of good old Berks county stock and of Swiss
    origin. Early in the eighteenth century the progenitors of the family in
    America left their native country, Switzerland, to go to South America,
    but people along the Rhine river, to which place they came in their
    journey, advised the wife not to go there. One night while they were at
    the Rhine, she entreated her husband so earnestly not to go,because
    people had told her they would forever be sorry, that he abandoned the
    trip, and so they remained for twenty years in the Rhine country, in
    Germany. In 1733 they came to America on the good ship "Samuel,"
    qualifying at Philadelphia Aug. 17, 1733. Rupp in his 30,000 names of
    immigrants gives the pioneer's name as Friederich Leiby, and the second
    series of Pennsylvania Archives, Vol. XVII, also gives the name
    Frederick Leiby; but the tax list of Greenwich township (Berks Co., Pa.)
    for 1754, published in Rupp's history of the county,gives the name as
    "Dietrich" Leiby, which probably was an error. The names Friederich and
    Dietrich might sound nearly alike to the untrained ear. Rupp in his
    30,000 names records the following: Palatines imported in the ship
    "Samuel," of London, Hugh Percy, master, from Rotterdam, last from Deal,
    males, eighty-nine above sixteen; females, eighty-six; males under
    sixteen, fifty-four; females, sixty-two; in all 291.

    It appears that Frederick Leiby died shout 1754, as the tax list
    has this item: "Frederick Leiby's Widow," and also the names of their
    children: George Michael Leiby and Jacob Leiby. The latter was assessed
    six pounds tax, and his younger brother and widowed mother each five
    pounds in 1754. The descendants of Frederick Leiby are quite numerous
    and are scattered all over Pennsylvania as well as in other States. In
    central Pennsylvania are settled several branches of this family. The
    pioneers are buried at Dunkel's church, in Greenwich township, Berks
    county, and were members of the German Reformed congregation. Willard
    D. Leiby is a grandson of David Leiby, both of whose grandfathers served
    as soldiers in the Revolutionary war. The paternal grandparents of
    David Leiby lived in Albany township, Berks county, where their son John
    J. Leiby, father of David, was born and reared. etc.
