"Henry Rubrecht, a native of Wurtemburg, Germany, emigrated to Pennsylvania on the ship "Peggy," which landed at Philadelphia October 16, 1754, and then he took the oath of allegience. On November 12, 1768 he took out a warrent for 70 acres of land in Lynn Twp. Northampton (Now Lehigh) county a locality in which he had settled prior to 1765. His name appears in the list of taxable for 1781. In 1790, the first Federal Census records him as the head of a Lynn township family consisting of himself, two sons over 16 years of age and two sons under 16, and three females. His name also appears in the tax list of 1812, besides the names of his sons John and George. In 1817-1817 he purchased lots 83, 129, and 130 in New Tripoli, for which he was taxed as the owner.
Jonas Rubrecht, one of his older sons, moved across the Blue Mountain and settled in Schuykill county, where he died and was buried at the Red Church, a historic place in Pine Dale. His descendents live in the vicinity of Hamburg and Shoemakersville, Berks county, but they spell their name Rubright.
Jacob Rubrecht, son of Henry, born January 17, 1789 and died January 20, 1856, was a millwright by trade and lived in LeHigh county near Wessnersville, Berks county. His wife Elizabeth Yenser born August 14, 1795, and died August 24, 1870; and their children ( now all deceased) were: Jacob (settled in Ohio), Daniel (killed in the Civil War), Levi (accidentally killed on the railroad at Schuykill Haven), Ephraim, Mary (married Henry Rauch), Lydia (1828-1895, married Nathan Yenser), Polly (died unmarried) , and Passie (maried Benjamin Gerber).
Ephraim Rubrecht, son of Jacob, born February 1, 1815, and died October 9, 1904, nearly 90 years of age, was a laborer and carpenter who lived in the Kistler Valley. His wife was Salie A. Greenawald. She was buried at Jacksonville but he at Wessnersville. They had eight children; Levi (buried at Schuykill Haven), Samuel (killed in the Civil War), James (at Philadelphia), Jacob (in Texas), Daniel (at LeHigh Gap), John, Mary (married Jacob Blickner), and Ellen (married Amos Gruber).
John Rubrecht, son of Ephraim, a prosperous farmer in the Kistler Valley, was born May 26, 1852, and reared upon a farm. In 1892 he began farming where he still lives. The farm of 100 acres came into his possession in 1896, after it had been in the Kistler family for more than one hundred years. The present dwelling was built in 1872 by Jacob Kistler, who also built the barn in 1875. Mr. Rubrecht is a democrat. He and his family are Lutheran members of the New Jerusalem church, which he served as deacon, elder and and trutee; also as one of the building committee. in 1875 he was married to Luzettea, daughter of Jacob and Polly (Snyder) Kistler, and they had eight children: Samuel, Edwin, George, Allen and Ida ( who are deceased), Charles, Anson, and Cora.
