In addtion Jacob and Anna Maria were sponsors for a child of Peter andJuliana Weis born in 1787: Juliana was their daughter according toJacob's will. I put her born about 1756 because she is listed first inwill and children are generally - not always I am sure- listed in orderof birth. The rest of the children are listed in order of birth in thisparticular will. The only one not found in church record is Barbara,listed between Philip and Christina. Johann Jacob is not listed in willand must have died.
