Kerr: I read your message of 2003 to a woman seeking Brechts and others in Sharon and Leeper, PA. If you find this, look at the Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild (free site). Find Brecht, the Schooner Bond, from Amsterdam to Philadelphia arriving 31 July 1832. Michael, father of your John G. Brecht, is listed along with all other family members. Amazing that Michael's mother's maiden name is given. His brother Gottfried is my great greatgrandfather. The family moved to Clarion Co. in 1839. Your J. G. was named after his grandfather.
