John Daniel Jacoby was probably a German who died in Culpeper Co., VA, in 1767. His will mentions his wife, Anna Barbara, and five children, Francis, John, Daniel, Elizabeth, and Anna Barbara.
Henry Jones apparently had a German strain since Anna Mary Gabbard calls him her grandson in her will, in which she left her entire estate to him. Henry Jones was a witness to the Michael Clore in 1762. David Jones was a chain carrier for Nicholas Kabler. He, David, had land on Stanton River. The daughter of Henry Frederick Beyerback was Catherine Jones. More research on the Jones family might help clarify these situations.
Michael Kaifer refers, in his 1762 will, to his son-in-law, Henry Coller. This person has never been identified. Spelling being what it was in many of the German wills, we are not sure just what the name was. So far no individual has come forth as the logical candidate for Henry "Coller"
John Kaines (Kine) had 400 acres adjacent to John Huffman, Christian Clayman (Clements), and Edward Ballenger. He proved his importation in 1741. He was an appraiser of the estate of John Stinesyfer in 1761. He died in 1767 and his will mentions Joseph Harriss and his wife and his grandson, John Harriss. He appointed his friends Harman Spilman and John Stinesyfer, Jr. as executors. From these latter names, it is most likely that John Kaines was from the Nassau-Siegen area.
Conrad Kepler was paid from the estate of Joseph Kelly in 1757.
John Jacob Kneissle and his wife Margaretha had Jacob baptized 24 Aug 1777. Sponsors were Jacob Redman and Elisabeth Schmidt.
Conrad Künzle's name appears in many forms and sometimes one is left wondering whether the same individual is intended. Other spellings are Genzle, Kansler and Gansler. The interchange of the "G" and the "K" is understandable. The list of sponsors for the nine children (1773 to 1794) of Conrad and his wife Rachel suggests that Rachel was a Barlow, in particular, a daughter of Adam Barlow and Mary Smith.
George, Michael and John Lehman are mentioned in the Hebron Church register 1775 to 1784.
Henry Lipp's name was affixed to the Hebron Church constitution of 1776. His wife was Elizabeth. Other Lipps who appear at church include Daniel, Anna Maria, Elizabeth, and Jacob who married Margaret. Though Germanna Record Six says that Jacob married Margaret Zimmerman, the right Margaret may not have been selected.
