MAAG - #1
Mock Family Historian Working Chart for the Maag families of PA


Jacob Maag m. Anna in the Parish Bulach at Eschenmosen, Switzerland. Five children were b. in Europe. Four of them are as follows, probably arriving in Philadelphia on the ship Royal Judith 2 Sep 1743

1 - Heinrich Maag b. July 1722 Zurich, Switzerland; d. 10 Jan 1787; m. (1st) Verena (Frances) b. ca 1728 d. 11/13 July 1783; m. (2nd) Elizabeth Brown, (widow). "Henry" purchased 55 acres of land in Passyunk Twp., Philadelphia 6 May 1761, where he lived until his death.

Philadelphia City (From Philadelphia Reformed Church Records - also Swiss records and ship records)
From Colonial and Revolutionary Families of Pennsylvania by Jordan:
Heinrich Maag, Jacob Maag and a Hans Hendrick Maag arrived in the ship Royal Judith 2 Sept 1743, and Jacob Maag was one of the signers of a letter from members of the German Reformed congregation at Market Square, Germantown, to the Holland Synod in 1744

It is possible that this Jacob was the father of Conrad, Heinrich & Barbara Conrad, b. 1731, would have been then under 16 and would not have been mentioned in the passenger list. Neither does this list give the name of women passengers, which would account for the absence of the name of his sister and mother.
