• Notes

  LDS Ancestral File -- One online site gave marriage date of 20 May 1760 in Altalaha Lutheran Church at Rehrersburg, Berks Co., PA -- Shaffer and Ziegler Family Tree at Ancestry.com gave names of parents as Henrich Loescher, b. 1711 in Schauffhuasen, SWZ; d. Mar 1784 in Rapho, Lancaster Co., PA, and Maria, b. 1715 in Zweibricken, Schauffhausen, SWZ; d. Oct 1784 in Rapho, Lancaster Co., PA; md. in 1738; But I have major doubts as to the accuracy of that information
