    The marriage of John Jacob Meixell to Veronica Zimmerman appears in the records
    of the Reformed congregation of Tohickon Union Church in Bedminster Twp., Bucks
    Co., PA. They were married by Rev. John Egidius Hecker.

    On 4 November 1759 John Jacob and Maria "Verona" Meixell appeared as sponsors
    at the baptism of John Jacob Meixell, son of John Jacob's brother, Johannes
    Meixell and his wife, Anna Margaretha, at Williams Twp. Congregation Church. (listed
    as Adam by error?)

    John Jacob is believed to have followed his brother, Johannes, in migrating
    to the northern tier of Northampton Co. The 1861 tax list shows John Jacob
    taxed in Lower Smithfield (now part of Monroe Co., PA) for $4.

    From Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelder Families, pg 1510:
    Philip Mixsell, son of Philip who was born in Lancaster Co., Pa., had five
    sisters and four brothers; the youngest sister died at the age of seventy, the youngest
    brother at the age of seventy-two, the father at eighty five, and one brother
    died aged niniey-two years. Philip Mixsell is said to have never been sick, and
    had but three months' schooling. He came to Easton at the age of thirteen years
    and became a partner of Judge Wagener, who manufactured flour and transported
    it to Philadelphia on Durham boats. In 1720 Peter Schuyler was the richestman, but
    Wagener became wealthier.[Condit]

    Philip Mixsell died in his ninety-fourth year, his mind unclouded to the last. In his
    day he was one of the most efficient and energetic citizens. He was engaged
    in the mercantile business under the name of Burket and Mixsell; no one filled
    a larger space in financial and social circles. His disposition was mild and gentle;
    he had good judgment and was temperate in every respect. In ealry life he was
    rich and influential; in his yesra he was overtaken by reverses, financial
    embarrassment and insolvency. [Easton Express 1870]

    The record of the Mixsell family begins with Philip Mixsell, born in Conestoga Twp.,
    Lancaster Co., Pa., November 23, 1731, died in Northampton Co., Pa., May
    13, 1817. He was a nephew of Jacob Mixsell of Leacock Twp., Lancaster
    Co., Pa., who came from Germany in the ship Mortonhouse, which arrived in

    Jacob was baptized as "John Jacob" at Williams Twp. Congregation Church. The
    sponsors were John Jacob Meixell andhis wife, Maria Verona.

    Note: The baptism of Jacob Meixell in 1759 shown inthe translated and typed
    records of the old Williams Township Congregation Church show his parents as
    "Adam and Anna Margaretha Meixel". After considering the following observations,
    it is believed that this "Adam" Meixel was, in fact, Johannes Meixell.

    1. The name "Adam" Meixel has never been found in any other church
    records, courthouse documents, tax lists, etc. in Northampton or Monroe
    Counties or in Lancaster Co.

    2. Courthouse documents prove that Johannes Meixell's eldest son was named
    Jacob and that he was born around 1759.

    3. Johannes Meixell's wife was also named Anna Margaretha.

    Jacob served in the Militia in Chestnuthill Twp. under Capt. John Griggory
    commanded by Col. Carn. His name appears on the muster role dated 25 September
    1780 under Class the 8.

    28 May 1829: Jacob on Reformed Church council of Christ Church, Hamilton Twp.
