By 1727, the influx of these foreigners into Pennsylvania assumed such proportions that the authorities became alarmed and the Provincial Council adopted a resolution requiring that all masters of vessels importing Germans and other foreigners should, before sailing from the European port, make a list of the names of all passengers, particularly the males over sixteen; though often the names and ages of all passengers, includ- ing women and children were set down. Then, upon reaching Pennsylvania, the foreigners were obliged to sign a declaration of allegiance and subjection to the King of Great Britain and of fidelity to the Proprietary of Pennsylvania. This oath was first taken in the courthouse at Philadelphia, September 21, 1727, by 109 Palatines.) His parents were married in 1757. The family originally settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Jacob was born in Adams County, Pennsylvania in 1760. He was the third of six children. Jacob served as a Private 1st Class in the Revolutionary War. He served in the 7th Company and 9th Battalion of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Militia commanded by Colonel Frederick Zigler. He was certified on May 20, 1783 by Captain Godfried Klugh. In 1786, Jacob married Christina Foulk in St. Matthews Lutheran Church in Hanover, Pennsylvania. They had 14 children of whom 13 lived to adulthood: Michael, Catherine, Elizabeth, Lydia, David, Sarah, Nancy, Jacob, Samuel, Henry, Christian, Benjamin, and Rebecca.
