Jacob “Brecknock?”<\/strong> or “Nimrod?”*<\/strong> (1701\/23-1745\/78) b. Switzerland; r. Somerset Co., PA (son of Wendel Santmann & Anne K. Coopersmith Bauman<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Marie Elizabeth<\/strong> Krueger (1716\/25-1781) b. Basil, Switzerland; little is known of her; sometimes confused with Elizabeth Rueger (1716-1781) who married younger brother Jacob Johannes Bowman who moved to Woodstock, VA<\/p>\n

Married: 1740, New Holland Church, Lancaster Co., PA<\/p>\n

Children: because of the late dates of some off-spring, we question their parentage, or did Jacob remarry?<\/p>\n

    * Were these nicknames referring to the same Jacob, one “Brecknock” a place of birth in Lancaster\/Berks County (from Switzerland)\u00a0and the other “Nimrod”<\/a>\u00a0from the Bible, a reference to the King of Shinar, Noah’s great-grandson, who was a “great hunter before the Lord”? Or were these men not even from our family?<\/p>\n

    # Three brothers were on the first Somerset County, PA, tax assessment; sometimes confused with the brothers of the generation before with the same names?<\/p>\n
