US Oath, 24:27, Jacob Woolf,or 19 May 1778, 51:, Jacob Wohlff
Estate records: accounting shows money "due the Trustees of Whitehall Meeting house."
The History of Lehigh Co, Vol III, pg 1383 mentions Elisabeth, widow of Nicholas Wolf
marrying Jacob Wenner who died in 1802. Actually, a transfer document (possibly
mentioning the son Nicholas) has Elisabeth Wolf, widow of Jacob Wolf (his second wf)
marrying Jacob Wenner. Apparently the record was misinterpretted here.

Adam Maurer, the Ohl family, Peter Sell, and perhaps Johannes Diehl.
Also on the boat, Johann Wolff (age 23) and Johan Peter Wolff (age 25)

Note from tfregly:
Last week while in Salt Lake city I found in the court records of Yorka
reference to Jacob who hired a lawyer to get the estate of his grand
parents straight it named the Gps in as i remember Germany, I will try
to find the cc i made and get it to you.
York Co record : No: 10, page 130, John Wolf heir and Administrater of the Estate of
Jacob Wolf, Late of Northampton County in the state of PA deceased as well in his
own behalf as for the Other heirs, to the Estate of the Said deceased by his letter of
attorney bearing date firstof June in the Year of Our Lord 1801 Impowered Jacob
Shultz and Conrad Shultzto Recover and Receive in his Name and Stead all such
legacies portion Estateor Inheretance Descending to him and the heirs of the Said
from the Estate oftheir Grand father and Grand mother Deceased both of Waldenheim
im Busweiler Amt in Elsace, Hesse Darmstadt
this was in abstract of York Co PA records??
I sometimes wonder if the oldest daughters could have been by an earlier wife of Jacob? It looks OK but he was about 30 and his wife much younger. I sortof
expect him to have been married in his 20's,s
