  • Notes 
    • Resided in Leumberg.

      “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. “ [4]
