Correspondence 18 May 2004, passenger Keresh/Geres
Johanne Carl Geres, Possible father of Katherine Geres who married
Hans Jurg Gleis in or around 1752 In Northampton County, PA.  They had
a son named Jacob Gleitz.  Visit my Website http://www.geocities.com/skyblu222us/index.html
You can go back to Johanne Carl Geres. Please email me with more
information at Rita Keller

*Contributed Notes:
Nicholas & Johann "Adam" Schmall were two of three children born to
Mathais Schmall-Kassel, Germany (The third being Anna Elizabeth).
Nicholas & Johann set out for the Americas aboard the Loyal Judith
and arrived on Sept. 3,1739.

Not much was recorded about Nicholas Sr. with the exception of his
death in 1778 and his burial in Perks Cemetary, Graham Twp., Clfd Co.,
PA.  Although it is felt that he lived in Berks Co, PA.
Nicholas fathered one child (mother unknown), Nicholas Jr.
Schmehl.

Nicholas Schmehl, Jr. was born in 1752 Berks Co,PA and  died 1827
Bradford Twp Clfd. Co., PA.   He is also buried in Perks Cemetary,
Graham Twp., Clfd. Co., PA.

Nicholas Schmehl, Jr's first marriage was to Elizabeth Volck, they
had 4 children.  His  second marriage to Catherine Kline produced 8
more children.

The eldest child, Benjamin S. Schmehl, Born Aug. 2, 1783 - Maxatawny
Twp., Berks Co., PA (Died July 23,1867).  Benjamin S. Schmehl
changed the families last name to Smeal while serving as Bradford
Twp. assessor sometime before 1837.

*Many ships are only listed with men, yet many came with their wives, children, sister, etc, but these names were either not recorded or not saved. Only males over the age of 16 were allowed to sign the oaths, so these would be the names on Strasburger & Hinke's lists. The early ships before 1727 you most likely will only see the oaths lists. As time went on and the captains were forced to record all passengers, you will often see the entire list of males, females and children. The law to record these was passed in 1727, but obviously not enforced until later. Other places you may find ship lists not recorded in S & H might be Philadelphia newspapers of the time. Look at this list carefully. Spellings are as found in the record and spellings for the same surnames vary! These have been alphabetized, so they are not as found in the record. The signatures have attempted to be matched with the appropriate person in the ship list, but please use your own judgement on these "matches"!!
