I. DIEDRICK FAHNESTOCK, son of Laborius Fahnestock was born February 2, 1696, in Halten in the district of Hagen, Province of Westphalia, Prussia, emigrated to America in 1726, first settled on the Raritan, New Jersey, but a few years later we find him at Ephrata, now Lancaster county, Pa. He subsequently took up a tract of three hundred and twenty-nine acres of land which was surveyed to him October 12, 1735. He died in Cocalico township on the 10th of October, 1775, his will being proved January 22, 1776. Diedrick Fahnestock married prior to his emigration to America, Anna Margaretta Hertz, b. July 23, 1702; d. September 29, 1783. Of their children the two eldest were born on the old homestead at Halten on the Rhine. One sister accom- panied the family, Elizabeth, who married Henry Dierdorf at Amwell, N. J .; subse- quently another sister, Armella, came to America-she united with the Seventh Day Baptist society at Ephrata. " It was not for the comforts of this life," wrote Diedrick Fahnestock, " but in the hope of finding people of more congenial religious faith," that induced him to emigrate to Pennsyl- vania, and he found them at Ephrata. His family were:
2. i. Casper, b. April 11, 1724, m. Maria Catharinc Gleim.
ii. Andrew, b. - 1726, d. on ship- board, near the American coast, and buried in New York.
