  • Notes 
    • Of the Heimbrunnerhof near Konigsbach.

      A large photo of Jacob and Magdalena hangs in the historical library at Bethel College in Newton, KS. A Litwiller cousin of Bernetta’s in IL has a German prayer book that belonged to Magdalena. On the inside cover of the book is written in German, “This book belongs to my wife Magdalena Schrag. She got it from her mother as an inheritance the 16th of January 1841.” [7]
