General Notes: Husband - Jacob Kolb


He came to America in 1707 and settled at Germantown, Pennsylvania.

An obituary notice of him says: "the 4th instant, October, 1739, Jacob Kolb, of Skippack. As he was pressing cider the beam of the press fell on one side of his head and shoulder and wounded him so that he languished about half an hour and then died, to the exceeding grief of his relatives and family, who are numerous, and concern of his friends and neighbors, among whom he lived many years in great esteem."
He was also a trustee, in connection with his brother, Martin, of Skippack Mennonite congregation as early as 1717, where he had moved in 1709.
