Research Notes:
Johannes lived in Ittlingen in the Northern Kraichgau, now part of Baden.
Heidelberg is quite near, to the northwest. The Neckar River makes the
north and northeast boundary of this district. Sinsheim, in the center,
is the main town. Though not large, about the size of a country in the
eastern United States, it was divided into eighty-six separate principalities.
Some belonged to the Palatine Elector, some to the Bishop of Speyer and to the
ducal families of Wirtemberg. The others were owned by noble and knghtly
families, petty rulers of tracts often only a few miles square. A map showing
these various sovereignties looks like a crazy quilt. Ittligen was a knightly
town and the religion of the ruler also determined the religion of the town.
Ittlingen was a Lutheran town. [Ref: John Hendricks 12/14/1995]
came to new world in the exodus of 1717 [Ref: Jones PalatineImmig p207]
immigrated sometimes between 1716 and Apr 29 1728 [Ref: Harter REICHELDERFER

to Pennsylvania before 1728. [Ref: John Hendricks 12/14/1995]
Jun 1 1718: first appeared in American records when he joined the New
York City Lutheran Church [Ref: John Hendricks 12/14/1995, Jones PalatineImmig

GermanImmigrants v1p284, John Hendricks 12/14/1995. Harter REICHELDERFER p1,
Jones PalatineImmig p207]
before 1734: paid quit rent on 100 acres of land in Hanover Township. [Ref:
