One of the Three original Traister brothers -from East of the mountains..Tyrone, Pa. Who's ancestors sailed out of Rotterdam, Holland. Hans Martin Traister (Treister) with son Fredrick, landed from Holland on ship St. Andre... (John Steadman- captain) at Philadelphia on Sept. 12, 1734. Note that by landing date this would make Hans too old to be George, Jake and John's father...but was of that line.
