Footnote 1: "Note: (made by Lucile Bitgood Carson) It is interesting to note that in Rupp's "Thirty Thousand Names Of Immigrants", is listed a Friederich Eichelberger, who landed in Philadelphia, PA, September 4, 1728, and was one of thirty Palatines who brought families on the ship Albany which sailed from Rotterdam June 22, 1728. It is quite possible that these two were one and the same man, and that two-years error was made in the Bible.) (A George Eichelberger landed in New York in1710.)"19

Historical Sketches of York County, Bio on A W Eichelberger: ìThe children by the second marriage of Philip Frederick Eichelberger were Adam, Leonard, Jacob (grandfather of our subject) and Lewis. Adam, the eldest, was a captain of a company of Associators of York County during the Revolution, and was also active in collecting money and supplies for the army. He was married to Magdalina Bechtel. Their children were Frederick, Michael, Samuel, Adam. Joseph, Susanna, Salome and Magdalina. He obtained possession of the homestead in 1766, which then contained 220 acres, including the mill place, which at that time was situated in Manheim but is now in Heidelberg Township, about three miles east of Hanover on the York road. The mill, which is in close proximity to the Hanover & York Railroad. is now owned by George Jacobs. In addition to the occupation of farmer, Adam was also a tavern-keeper. He was a prominent and influential citizen, and died in 1787, aged forty-eight years and seven months. The home place has been kept in the family up to the present time, and is now occupied by Charles Eichelberger, a great-grandson. ì20 [editorís note, text dates 1886]

Jack Hoke gave her as dtr of fatherís first wife Doerners, giving birth between 1735 - 1738 York Co., Manheim Twp., PA. 9 EIchelberger pages name her as dtr of 2nd wife Maria Magdalena Becker, provides a birth date, 15 Jan 1743 Lancaster Pa 51 She currently has dual ascendancy, with preference given to mother Becker, as Eichelberger site is more secure with her birthdate.
She is shown in the bio for A W Eichelberger in historical sketches of York County, and named as  among the first four of her fatherís children, shown  as being born in Germany, and corresponding as a dtr then of first wife, if among the first four.  However, it appears there were other girls in the family, also given the ìsaintís nameî Barbara (common practise among early German protestant immigrants and first generations here) in Germany.  It would appear this Anna Maria Barbara Eichelberger was born after her familyís arrival in 1728 despite the entry from the historical sketches which  reads ìThe children by his first wife were Martin, Frederick, Anna Margeret (married to Vincent Keefer), Barbara (married to Andrew Hoke) and Elizabeth (married to Jacob Smyser). His first four children, as above stated, were born in Germany. These children, after marriage, located in and around York.î20 See her two sisters narratives.
 Administration of the Estate of Barbara Hoke was granted Mar.10, 1817 to Jacob Hoke.9 ìLater correspondence contained a copy of letters on the family written by Edward Hoke, great, great grandson of Johann Jacob, descended through Jacob's son, Andrew. He states, "John Jacob Hoke emigrated from Manheim, Germany about the year 1727 [sic, known to be 1728]. He was Pastor of the German Reformed Church of Lancaster City, Pennsylvania in the year 1736."
