Junior
Yoder family designation is YB1 (son of Hans of Great Swamp)
(non-Amish listing)
John Jr is mentioned as overseer of will ofGeorge Bachman, will of 1753,
filed in Philadelphia. Is this the source thatcauses folks to think his
wife is a Bachman? His wife couldn't be a child, because his children
weren't born until after 1717. See this website which has information
from George Bachman's family bible:

That says the will calls him "friend John Joeder Jr"

Mennonite Yoders. Bucks-Lehigh County Yoders - As early as 1734 , one John and Anna Yoder came to "Penn's Woods" and took land during the reign of King George II of
England. The land was part of a land grant of William Penn. Later, the Mennonites
petitioned for and were grantedtownship for the area that became Milford Township
in Bucks County and Upper Saucon in Lehigh County. ( Source: The History of
Saucon Mennonite Meetinghouse and Church ) Montgomery County also soon
came to be home for some of the descendants of this line. These Yoders were the
only ones in America to use the name Casper, found so frequently among
the Steffisburg Joder records. A John Yoder is known to have married Anna Bachman,
but it is not clear whether this was the senior immigrant or John Jr. Although there is
still some confusion as to the generations, this branch may be the next to establish
a demonstrable connection to the Joders of Steffisburg.
