I have found no records of Jacob's birth, though we can assume that he was at least age 16 in 1728 to be considered an adult male in the immigration records described below. A collection of biographical sketches written by the 19th century journalist John Franklin Meginness and published in 1903, states that Jacob Heidschuh was born in the Palatinate… text/html 2025-06-21T07:32:25+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.wiki.ohiopioneers.com/doku.php?id=surname:hiteshew:1728_johann_nicolaus&rev=1750491145&do=diff Johann Nicolaus Hiteshew (c.1728-?)

George (Jürg) Phillip Heitshew, son of Johann Nicolaus Heidshcu and Anna Sybilla, was born on 23.Jun.1756 and baptized in the Alsace church on 27.Jun.1756. The sponsors at his baptism were Jürg Phillip Heidschu and Eva Elisabeth Geredtin.
