SCHREIBER FAMILY.

John Jacob Schreiber, the ancestor of this fam- ily, was born in Niederbronn, Alsace, in 1699. In a record written by himself, it is stated that he married Anna Magdalena Roth on April 28, 1733,and left Niederbronn on May 4, 1733. In company with his wife's brother, Daniel Roth and his family, they sailed from Rotterdam, Hol- land, on the ship, "Hope," Daniel Reid, captain, and with 225 others arrived at Philadelphia on Aug. 28, 1733. He resided at Skippack, Mont- gomery county, several years before removing to Lehigh county, and his two eldest children were born there. His youngest son, John George Schreiber, was baptized in Lehigh county in 1740 and in that year, on September 22d, he se- cured a warrant for 150 acres along the Lehigh river, and on May 13, 1749, another for 100 acres. This land is now occupied by the borough of Coplay, and the plant of the Coplay Cement Company. John Jacob Schreiber died prior to Oct. 3, 1752, as on that day his son, Philip Jacob is described as the "son of the deceased Jacob Schreiber," in a church record. He was undoubtedly buried at Egypt, but the location of his grave is unknown. His widow, who was born in 1703, was still living in 1774, as on April 8th, of that year, she was sponsor at the baptism of a child.

Their children were three in number: Philip Jacob, Catharina Maria Magdalena, and John George. Catharina Maria Magdalena Schreiber was born in Skippack, Jan. 6, 1737. Her spon- sors were John Shuck, and Anna Maria. She married, about 1755, John Peter Troxell, born April 3, 1719, died Jan. 25, 1799. Mrs. Troxell died March 9, 1806. They had seven children. Their names appear on the house built by Mr. Troxell in 1756 on his farm near Egypt. In 1768 he sold his farm to Peter Steckel and re- moved to Gwynned township, Philadelphia county. About 1777, he removed to Maryland and he and his wife are buried at Tom's Creek, Maryland.

SCHREIBER HOMESTEAD.

Philip Jacob Schreiber, eldest son of John Jacob, was born in Skippack township, Montgom- ery county, June 13, 1735, and was baptized on June 15th. The death of his father in middle age left him at the head of the family and respon- sibilities were early thrust upon him, which he readily met. He became one of the most pros- perous farmers in Whitehall, and added to the holdings of the family. In 1764 he was assessed £10 on 250 acres of land and in 1768 he was taxed on 90 acres of cleared land and 310 acres of uncleared land, with three horses and three cows. He was a man of medium height, pro- portionately built, with auburn hair. A man of considerable energy, he possessed more than ordi- nary intelligence, and some of his account books still in existence show that he wrote a very neat

hand both in English and German. He was an elder and trustee of the Egypt Reformed con- gregation and in 1785 was a member of the building committee which erected the church, to which he contributed £20. In 1799, he erected a fine stone mansion on his property, which still stands. He died April 5, 1813, and is buried at Egypt. He married, May 1, 1759, Catharine Elizabeth Kern, daughter of George Kern, also of Whitehall township. She was born in White- hall and baptized on June 28, 1741. She died Nov. 3, 1819.

He died Aug. 24, 1834, and is bur- ied at Egypt. He married, in 1803, Susanna Deshler, who died March 23, 1857. They had two daughters: Mary, married to Stephen Hag- enbuch, who later removed to Ohio; and Aman- da, wife of Aaron Dech, of near Rittersville.

dren : Stephen, John, Jacob S., Levi, Josiah, William, Mrs. Nancy Straub, and Mary, mar- ried to John McNinch and John Clapp.

(II). Daniel Schreiber, born June 4, 1785.

Jacob Schreiber, son of Philip Jacob, was born in Whitehall, Jan. 3, 1780. When a boy, he, by an accident, lost the use of one of his eyes. After the death of his father, he became pos- sessed of the homestead and half of the land, plus five acres, as that part of the farm was more hilly than the other part. As was customary, his older brother, Peter, should have received the homestead, but Jacob's choice of a helpmate with whom the father wished to make his home met his father's approval and he was favored. A release from his co-heirs shows that he paid £220 to each as their portion. Not being of robust health, he was obliged to lease much of the labor of the farm to others and later to his sons. He was a great lover of horses, and had quite a repu- tation as a horse doctor, being frequently called upon to relieve or cure animals in his own and adjoining townships. He also bought horses and took them to the New York markets. He opened up limestone quarries in the earlier days of iron manufacture and sold limestone to furnaces of the Lehigh Valley, transporting it by canal boats, and later by rail.

He was a strict disciplinarian and apt at times to be severe. After he became sixty years of age he became blind and remained so until his death. In the later years of his life he and his wife were fond of recalling old friends and relating inci- dents of the past. His abstemious way of living preserved him in fairly good health to his eighty- sixth year, and he died on Christmas Day, Dec. 25, 1865. He married Eve Catharine Leisen- ring, daughter of Conrad Leisenring and his wife, Catharine Grob. She was born Oct. 3, 1786, and died May 31, 1866. They are buried at Egypt. Mrs. Schreiber was possessed to an unusual degree of good judgment and common sense and was considered as a court of last resort by her family. She was a good house-keeper and skilled in the administration of the old house- hold remedies. They had eight children :

(1). Anna Schreiber, the eldest child, was born Jan. 24, 1804. She married, Jan. 5, 1823, Jacob Roth, and died July 14, 1883. Their children were: Josiah, who married Salome Leisenring and had sons: Jacob P., and Alfred ; Eliza Malvina, married (first) a Mr. Franken- field, and (second) George Whitesell, of Beth- lehem; Charlotte M., wife of Jacob Young; Jane, married (first) to Lewis Biery, and (sec- ond) to Matthew Kolb; Catharine, married to Thomas Kessler, of Bethlehem; Celia, married VOL. III-26

to Reuben Snyder; and Sarah, wife of James Beers.

(2). Salome, second child of Jacob, was born Sept. 6, 1805. She married, April 3, 1831, Jacob Dillinger, who was a prominent citizen of Allentown, and held the positions of associate judge, member of the assembly, and president of the Allentown National Bank. She died at Al- lentown, Dec. 22, 1894. Their children were: Capt. John P. Dillinger ; Margaret E., wife of Philip S. Pretz; Jacob S. Dillinger, Esq .; and Dallas Dillinger.

(3). Edward Schreiber, eldest son of Jacob, was born May 6, 1807. He was an ambitious and enterprising man, and after his marriage purchased a part of his father's farm, erected the necessary buildings and commenced farming for himself. He later built and operated a distillery in which he was very successful, and soon pur- chased a farm and distillery along the Little Le- hingh at Allentown, which he conducted until about 1863, when the revenue tax became so high as to make it unprofitable. The distillery was then changed to a flour mill and did a large merchant milling business. In the meantime coal oil was discovered in western Pennsylvania, and he was one of the pioneers in that region and with his son, Peter, exploited several large tracts. Later, he purchased 5,000 acres of land in Min- nesota, now Moorhead, opposite Fargo, at $1.25 per acre, from the national government. In 1869, he travelled in Germany and France, bringing with him on his return, four stallions and one mare of the Percheron breed. This trip and a very stormy homeward voyage broke his heretofore rugged health, cancer of the stomach developed, and he died Sept. 18, 1871.

He married, March 26, 1833, Mary Magda- lene, daughter of Peter Laubach. She was born Jan. 9, 1814, and died April 5, 1887. They had six children: Franklin J. Schreiber, born Dec. 23, 1833, assisted his father on the farm, and in the distillery, and in the milling business. In 1878 he removed to Moorhead, Minn., where he operated a farm of 2,080 acres. The principal products were spring wheat and oats. He also raised horses, cattle and hogs, and later installed a large dairy and made butter of the first quality, which he disposed of at fancy prices. He re- ceived prizes at the state dairymen's conventions, and was considered an authority in the agricul- tural councils of the state. He married Miss Sallie Harman, of Bloomsburg, Pa. They had no children. He met with an accidental death in 1889.

Peter Schreiber, second son of Edward, was born in Whitehall, Oct. 7, 1835. His earlier years were spent on his father's farm and in

1865 he entered the oil business, which he suc- cessfully followed for a number of years at Pit- hole, East Sandy, and Butler, and became one of the best known operators in the state. After a residence of several years at Pithole he removed to Oil City, where he remained until 1909, when he removed to Franklin. He died suddenly from apoplexy at his home on Feb. 13, 1913. His health had been seriously impaired from an in- jury received in a trolley wreck on May 30, 1910, from which he suffered intense pain, though he never complained and few were aware of it. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and a manly man, loyal to his friends and a de- voted husband and father. He married, May 20, 1874, Miss Caroline Foreman, at Milford, N. J. They had two children : Foreman H. Schreib- er, of Frostburg, Md., and Mrs. D. Custer Moore, of Franklin, Pa.

For a number of years he managed farmers' institutes.

Mrs. Eberhard was a woman of great strength of mind, fearless and resolute. She lived to the age of 95 years, less one day, and died March II, 1907. She was blind for fourteen years, but notwithstanding this affliction, loved to converse about the past.

JOSEPH DUBBS SCHREIBER, second son of Owen L., was born Feb. 9, 1852. After receiv- ing a common school education in the schools of the vicinity, he was employed by his father until the age of twenty-six years, when he went to Moorehead, Minn., as foreman of a large wheat farm.

He was also employed for two years in the North- ampton car shops. In 1884, he commenced to farm for shares on the Oberly farm in Hanover township. Later he moved on the Owen Schreib- er farm in Coplay. After conducting this farm for five years it was purchased by the Coplay Ce- ment Company, for which company he conducted it seventeen years. Retiring from the farm in 1910, he moved in his own house in Coplay, and he has since filled the office of street commis- sioner. In 1890, he was elected mercantile ap- praiser of Lehigh county, being the first Republi- can elected to this office in the county.

The Schreiber family adhered to the church of their fathers and there is not any bearing the name who is not a member of the Reformed church. In politics, they affiliated with the pro- gressive element, namely Federalists, Whigs and Republicans, to which they conscientiously ad- hered without hope of reward and solely from patriotic motives. In stature the members of the family were, as a rule, all above the average height, and the older generations were connected by marriage with the best families of the county.
