Find A Grave contributor Patsy Hittle Gore has made a suggestion to you regarding your Find A Grave memorial for Daniel Leinbach. Their suggestion:

Hi just wanted to mention that Daniel father was J. Henrich LEINBACH (1705-1777). The history of Berks county, PA had this all mixed up.

Find A Grave contributor Grandma has made a suggestion

I'm finding conflicting information on the 22 children that Johann Daniel Leinbach fathered. I'm finding that his first wife, Catherine Graul died in 1783, after having 7 children. (including the two infants who died nameless), his 2nd wife, Maria Catharine Lerch died in 1788 after having 3 children. He married his 3rd wife, Mary Hartman in 1789 and had at least 12 children. I've found a lot of information in Strasstown Roots (bergergirls.com). I realize this information is 2nd hand, but some of it can be figured out based on the death of the wives. I appreciate any input you can provide to me to help get this straight!!!

Thanks! Martha* Reference: Find A Grave Memorial - SmartCopy: Oct 12 2019, 16:01:20 UTC
