    “There is a Bible donated to “The Lancaster Historical Society” that was brought to America by Ullrich Schrock (1251??) b.1740. The Bible states that it was given to a Nikolas Schrag in 1634 who in turn gave it to his son Ulrich. This date has been the source of much confusion to Schrag historians. However, if one thinks of the term “son” as the Biblical “Son in the Faith” as Timothy was to Paul, then Nikolas (1X) b. 1623 and Ulrich (125) b. 1641 fit the bill. “

    Another Hans Schrag was born about 1587 in Wynigen, Switzerland.} Many Schrags lived in the hofs at Leumberg and Mistelberg, Canton Bern. These villages are in the Solothurn region.

    In 1682 a home, Leumburg, was purchased by the Wyss family from a Hans and Ulrich Schrag. It could have been Hans and Uli, sons of Hanns and Maria/Margaret (?)

    Peter Schrag writes: I have found Hans 1587 in data from Lorentz and Family Search, but I cannot find an entry for him in the Church Books. Possibly there is only Hans 1573 who married Barbly Leuenberger 1600 and Barbly died after 1607 and Hanns 1573 married Margret Hiltbrunner 1612. As there are no books for deaths for that time, I cannot prove it.”
