    3. Michelle, Sorry for the last scrambled message. The interesting thing about Magdalen and Henry is their religion differences. Magdalen was raised Catholic while Henry was a Lutheran. Their first child Rebecca was baptized in the Catholic Church but I did not find record of any of the other children being done so. Henry and three of the children are buried in St. John’s Church Cemetery, Pricetown, PA. Benjamin, the oldest son, is buried in what once was Salem Evangelical Church in Pricetown, PA. As indicated below Magdalen was buried in Most Blessed Sacrament Church Cemetery, Bally, PA.
