Bob,
Thanks for your response. I am aware of the Lightcaps in St. Peters.I have tried to find a link in the church records but have had no luck. But I agree with you.That Solomon and Sarah are probably the right Lightcaps.
I made a trip back to Philly last month and was at St. Michael's, St. Peters and the Seminary.I have a copy of St. Michael's church records(both volumes)1741-1841.
I have found some info on Michael and Susannah. Married March 27, 1814 at St. Michael's.
Also a record on a Sarah Ann Lightcap married on July 30, 1840 to Charles Andrews. It says Michael and Susan were parents and lived in Bristol Township, Montgomery Co.
It is interesting to me that you have the Rittenhouse and Lightcap line. I also have both lines.
Solomon Leightkep(1762-1842)married to Sarah(1771-1853)
John Lightcap(1790-1856) married to Mary Geyer(1793-1868)
Charles Lightcap(1828-1922) married to Amanda Rittenhouse(1832-1921)
I have seen Michael listed as a brother to John in the Lightcap file at the Germantown Historical Society.
I would be happy to look up any other names in the church records as there are many listings for both Lightcap and Rittenhouse.
Thanks again for your help and if you dig up anything new please let me know and I will do the same.
Sean
