• Notes

  AKA: Jans Jakob MOUNTZ Came to US in Sep-1731 on ship BRITTANIA, landing in Philadelphia. Upon his untimely death, he left 7 children (George, Christina, Jacob, Lazarus, and the minor Michael; I don't know where Joseph falls in the order, nor do I know the name of one additional child). In 1761, there were petitions for guardianship and disbursement of their estate. His widow married John DIETER/FISTER between 1753-1761. Regarding Joseph Mountz, son of Johannes Jacob, as provided on 1Dec2018 by JDA (48819044): “Henry Mountz, now a retired citizen of Robesonia, has passed all his life in Heidelberg township, having been born there June 21, 1844, above Womelsdorf. The family is an old one in Berks county. Joseph Mountz, great-grandfather of Henry, was a taxable in Heidelberg township as early as 1759, being assessed as a single man. He had a brother George, who died in 1800, the year his will was entered on record in the court-house, a son, John G., being the executor of the estate. " [As extracted by JDA from Morton Montgomery’s "Biographies from Historical and Biographical Annals (of Berks County)".] Gravesite Details A thank you to CPL Jeffrey Hal Anderson who provided this: "He May be buried at the Saint Daniel's Church Cemetery in Robesonia, Berks County, Pennsylvania, USA. because that is where his wife, Marie Catharina (Lauck) Mountz is buried."
