This is a follow-up of my previous message.I apparently hit a wrong button!
I recently find in KindredKonnections a reference to a Daniel, Adam, and Leonhart Neidig (also Johannes), who came from Germany and whose father was Joerg Adam Neidig.There is some error here--I do believe my ancestor who wrote the journal that they came from Switzerland (and a ships record shows the three--Daniel, J. Leonhart, and Adam) arriving in Philadelphia in 1754.
They do give this Leonhart, botn about 1736 in Germany as married to Elizabeth in 1761 in Pennsylvania.I have not yet been able to follow up to enquire from the person who originated this where he got his information.His name is H. Richard Johnson, 1336 Cowper St., Palo Alto, CA 94301; phone, 415-813-2203.(No e-mail address given.)If I can help you in any other way, let me know--or if you find out more about Leonhart, I'd like to know, too.
