On To A New World "That the bearer of this, Andreas Schreiber, citizen and inhabitant of this place and his wife Anna Margareta, whome he has with him, confess themselves to be conformable to the Word of God of the Reform Church, and have until now assidously observed the outward duties of Christianity in attending our public worship, receiving the Holy Sacrament, and otherwise, so far as is known, have been irreproachable in their conduct, I attest.     Whereas the said man and wife and their children, after having born adversary, are about to turn their backs upon their country and go (God knows where), into a strange country, I therefore recommend them to a willing reception by the preachers and elders of the said Reform Church, wherever they may show this.

At one time we thought we may have been connected to this line but after months of digging we have came up empty handed. We still believe there is a connection to this family but not during the time period  we first thought. I put together this GEDCOM file so that we could keep everyone straight. You will also find a Bible Record dating back to the mid 1600's on this site.   [ Home ] [ Bible ] [ Surnames ] [ Contact ] You are visitor #
