    2. Jerri Crapo
    3. Can anyone clear up some geography? According to LDS files JOHANNES JOST SCHNEIDER was born in Huttengesass 1681 (believe that ss may be German letter that looks like a B)..However, he is listed in Jones' Palatines to NY as from Haiger/Hayger, 5 km w. of Dillenburg, and is listed on a 1709 petition to leave Germany in the Nassau-Dillenburg Petitions..Would Huttengesass be way off or perhaps near Haiger/Hayger? His wife ANNA ELISBETHA MEYERT/LOHMEYER is listed as born 1682 in Langesbold, but I don't know if they mar. before or after arr in New York..appreciate any info....jerri in calif
