maybe sonJacob was of a prior marriage?

Since Jacob died in 1779 and was pretty young at the time, I wonder if it was related
to service in the Revolutionary War. Perhaps Jacob Snider in the 1st Class, 2nd
Company (Reading) Berks Militia.

####################################################
I believe this is the right Philip in Berks County mainly because of:
- the good fit in the 1800 census, Greenwich
- it appears that Philip disappears from Berks County at the time this one shows
up in the tax listing of Mahantongo Twp
- he had a daughter Magdalena and a wife named Maria at the right time/place

Notes:

I'm not sure if the tombstone at Zion is really this Magdalena or if it was his only wife.
Or this is the Magdalena, wife of John Smith in the 1850 census that is clearly a
different family? Everyone seems to assume that the one at Zion is this one.
But why was she buried at a different church? Could it be that the Magdalena,
d/o of Philip baptized in Greenwich Twp isn't this one (I think it is).

is this really the Magdalena Schmidt, wife of Johannes, buried at Zion, Pitman:
2 Dec 1803 - 24 Dec 1851? From my picture:

Machdlena?
????
Johannes Schmidt
Dec 2_ 1803
Dec 2(4?) Dec 1854
52 years, 22 days

(most is still hard to read)

Note - she definitely had died by the time the estate records came up in 1858. Had
she left John and been living in Barry Twp maybe (since many kids got married
there). I've tried to find John in the 1850census but can't find them anywhere.
