Is the birth date of Daniel wrong? Here's what I have from the DeTuck Family Assoc. In John DeTurk's Bible was found on a loose sheet of paper a register of his children in his own handwriting. The name of Deborah, the last child, is not given. this omission makes it possible to approximately fix the time of making this birthday register as 1760. The birth of Deborah was taken from a later register. A translation of the orginal record, which was made in German, is given in full: REGISTER OF THE BIRTHDAYS OF MY CHILDREN My son, Isaac, was born August 25, 1741, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon.
