Catherine and Claus Janson/Johnson and their son Peter who married the daughter of Christopher Dock. Little is known about Peter. He probably immigrated to America about 1701. . He purchased that year 160 acres on the banks of the Wissahicken in Phila. Co. That became the homestead for the family in America. He was one of 51 members of the mennonite Church in Germantown in 1708. the historian Morgan Edwardsd gave his name as "PeterConnerts". He died in 1736 and named his three children in his will. Not known for sure where he was buried but probably in cemetery of Mennonite meeting house in Germantown. The name Gartrude Connors appears in the list of members of the Germantown Mennonite congregation and she was probably his wife. Sorry I don't know more. the above information came from " The Boorse Family" found at the Mennonite Historians of Eastern PA Library. Mary Cassel Case
