"Nicholas Klein with Sarah Littweiler (single) sponsor Daniel Littweiler on 7 Jun 1778."
Ed. this event may have fallen between the first two marriages listed above. It is unclear whether the "single" notation applies to both Nicholas and Sarah. As Nicholas Klein, son of Johannes & Catherine, is of the 3rd generation of Kleins to live in the Lehigh/Berks border area, there may well be more than one Nicholas Klein in the church records.

"Phillip Lauer settled upon a tract of forty-seven acres of land which he bought April 10 A.D. 1810, from Nicholas Klein. This was a part of a farm of one hundred eighty acres which was surveyed and warranted to Casper Blylor, on the 29th day of April, 1746.

Conjecture

Research Wishlist

Longswamp church records for a possible marraige record, Joh. Nicholas Klein & Magdalena Unknown; a death record of Magdalena Klein, or additional baptismal records for children of Nicholas & Magdalena. Needed to establish whether Magdalena was a first wife to Nicholas, son of Johannes & Catharina Klein, or if Nicholas, husband of Magdalena, is another person.
