Dwayne, Thank you so very much. I had none of that information. I evidently missed those postings, so I will check. I am very interested, as I descend from Alexander Mack Sr. and Jr. through William Mack (1749-1813) m. Agnes Gantz (1754-1808); Elizabeth Mack (1776-1847) m. John Holsinger (1768-1849); Nancy Holsinger (1809-1889) m. George Snyder (1799-1874) I have never been able to find much about this George Snyder. I would imagine that George is Brethren as the religion stayed in the family - down to me. The only conjecture that I have about George is that his father may have been Thomas & siblings may have been Harmon, Christian, Henry, and Sarah. But I have no proof of that. I wonder if any one on the list has researched this Snyder line? If so, would love to hear from them.

Kalckglasser is just another spelling of the same name, but, you're technically correct, this spelling was not used in the ship records. Maria [nee Mack] Kalckglöser and Susanna [nee Mack] Schneider were sisters. They were nieces of Alexander Mack Sr. The evidence was posted to this list by David Myers a few weeks ago. You may want to search the archives. Also, both of the Anna Margaret Macks on the Allen were related to Alexander Mack Sr. One was his sister-in-law, the widow of Alexander's brother, George Conrad, who was the mother of four Mack daughters on board, including the other Anna Margaret, Phillipine, Maria (mentioned above) and Susanna (also mentioned above). The other Anna Margaret, as I just mentioned, was a daughter. The four daughters were nieces of Alexander Mack Sr. Dwayne Wrightsman -
