He wrote a Will October 7, 1736, naming his wife, Margaret, his oldest son, John, was to receive 120 acres of land and son, Martin, to receive the remaining 80 acres. The other children were Magdalena, Barbara and Henry. All of the children were minors.

Disambiguation

There is obvious confusion between this Heinrich (Henry) and the family of Bishop Henry Funk of Montgomery County. The eight children of Heinrich (Henry), of Conestoga, probably in order of birth (by gender) are sons: Henry Jr. (eldest son), Hans (John), Martin, Jacob and Samuel; daughters: Barbara,[3] wife of Michael Meyer, Mary, wife of Jacob Nissley, and Franey, wife of Jost Musser. "Manor" Henry Funk, is a later immigrant who settled in Manor Township, Lancaster County. He is not a son or grandson of Henry of Conestoga.
