=== Brief History ===
) Jacob had lived for 8 years in Hassloch in the Kurpfaltz and there married Anna Barbara Christian (sic). He applied to Basel for manumission on 13 Jan. 1717 and at that time he had three children (Staatsarchiv Basel, D 6, 172) Note that only two children were found in the Hassloch baptismal record before 1717. There is a burial record for an unnamed 8 year daughter who died 22 May 1721.
Emigrated from Hoelstein, Canton Basel, Switzerland with his father about 1700 to Hassloch, Pfalz. Emigrated to America on the Ship Snow Lowther, Joseph Fischer, Master, from Rotterdam, and last from Dover, arrived 14 Oct 1731 with wife, Anna Barbara, and children inc. Joh. Wendel, Joh. David, Joh. Conrad, Joh. Ulrich, and Catharina.
Initially joined New Holland Church, Lancaster Co., PA where they registered their elder children.

Registered at Muddy Creek Church about 5 November 1745 (about the time of Margaret of Joseph Ritter was baptized December 15, 1745). Pastor Casper Stover recorded several births and baptism of congregants. No wife was mentioned and other sponsors were selected, so Anna Barbara (Biber) Gysi may have died by this date.
