JOHANN YOST SWOPE AS PRESENTED BY MORSE AND MCLACHLAN INTHE SWOPE BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE

Yost presents confusion for the detail minded initiate to Swope research as he  appears as two seperate men, one born 1678-1735, another born 1656-1727. The First had 5 known progeny;  The second is credited with 11. Three children cross reference to both identifications.  The reason for this dual identity is because of the  two different family studies used for Swope research, one predating the other by nearly 100 years.

Yost SWOPE as presented by G E Swope  was of  uncertain parentage and different birth and death dates, had no known identified siblings,  and with wife Anna Katharina Surname unknown had  The Five Children mentioned as found in birth records held by descendants, and in which reference to the family bible then [1895] in family possesion is made.

Morse and McLachlan in "The Swope Book of Remembrance" 139 [Self Published  1972] present Yost as  son and brother, and as husband to Anna Catharina WOLFHARDT. They further greatly expand the number of his children , some of whom were first identified by G E Swope in 1898. To accomodate their identification of him, Morse and McLachlin changed his birth and death dates as found on Yost's [reinternment] tombstone .

Due to the bulk of this line, Only son Johannes' descendancy continues here beyond several generations. This page is dedicated to the identification of Yost as given by Morse and McLachlan. It  includes other sources for spouses and children when available, sources that, due to the repetitive nature of such an effort, are not included at the page dedicated to Yost Swope as identified by G E Swope in 1898.

Hans  (Johann ) Jorg (Jeorg) SCHWAB:

G.E. Swope wrote of Hans Jorg in 1898. His words: 
 
 
 
 
 
 

ìHans Jorg Swab arrived in Philadelphia Swet 21 1727 (Col. Rec., Vol. 3, page 597). This is supposed to be the 
George Swope who settled in the neighborhood of York. 
He was one of the organizers of Old Christís Lutheran 
church at York, 1733. George Swope was ëone of his 
majestyís Justices of the Peace for the County of Lancaster, 
Aug. 29, 1746í. He was reappointed April 22, 1749. 
(Col. Rec., Fol. 5, page 378). 
Penna Archives 1740 to 1756, page 38, refers to him as ëa principal inhabitant.í George Swope died 1757; 
his son George was administrator of his estate. 
Besides the son he had daughters-
Anna barbara, married Michael Rancke; 
Eva Elizabeth, married Peter Yeager, both of Paradise township, 
now York county; 
Anna Eve, married Paul Burget; Anna M., married Peter Huber. 
George Swope left a widow, Anna Eve. Nothing is known of any of the descendants of his children.î140


 Swope Book of Remembrance shows: 

"He was baptized the Sunday following his birth. The godparent was Hans Jorg Boser, citizen at Weyler.(Churchbook in Duehren near Sinsheim: Churchbook in Leimen:). ìWhen Hans Jorg was nineteen years old, he moved with his parents from Duehren to Leimen, a village near Heidelberg and the Bergstrasse Road....Shortly after the move to Leimen, (Yost and Annaís) eldest son, Hans Jörg or Georg, married Anna Eva (some researchers say her maiden name was Schaeffner, but do not give the source of this information)î His father and an unknown number of his fatherís children went to Pennsylvania in 1720**. He remained in Leimen vith his own family. The  News of the NewWorld from his brother-in-law, Johan Eberhardt Riehm, his father, Jost, and his brother, Johannes (a thousand acres of land!), and Jorg  decideded to join them in Penn's Woods. In 1727,  with a group of Palatines, members of the Reformd Church, he traveled to the New World under the leadership of Rev. Georg Michael Weiss. His name disappears from the records of Leimen (see page 1303) after the birth of his son, Jost, in 1724.  His wife's name was Anna Eva. A passenger list of the ship William and Sarah," William Hill, Master, from Rotterdam, dated in Philadelphia the 18th September 1727 includes the names "Hans Jerrick Swaep - 6 persons, Hans Jerick Schaub - 3 persons, Albert Swoap - 1 person."îHans Jerrick Swaep" with a family of six persons,  arrived on the ship William and Sarah and qualified in Philadelphia the 21st of Septenber 1727 .Johann Georg Schwab" and his male companions took the Oath of Allegiance to the British government in the presence of the Governor and the Provincial Council and signed his name. We know that Hans Jorg Schab went directly to the Conestoga Valley home of his brother, Johannes, for on October 2,1727 a letter was addressed to John Georg Schwab in the Conestoga Valley by Rev. Weiss, the leader of the expeedition from the Palatinate to Pennsylvania. He attended the wedding of his brother, Johannes (John) to his second wife, Catharina Elisabeth Graeff in Lancaster County in 1742.
ìGeorge Schwab, Sr., son of Jost (he usually used the name George instead of his full name Hans Jorg or Johann Georg) died in Paradise Township, York County in 1756. Administration Bonds were issued to the administrators of his estate, his vife, Eva, and son, George, blacksmith. Michael Swoope, son of George Schwab, Sr's cousin Johann Georg (or George) Schwab, was the bonds man. The estate of George Swoope (as his name is spelled in the Administration Acoount dated 29 November 1758, showed a balance of pound 245.12.7. In the Orphans Court Dockets, vol. A, Page 193, the personal estate of George Swoope of Paradise Township was distributed among his widow, Anna Eve, and his issue or representatives thereof: George Anna Barbara, wife of Michael Ranck: Eva Elisabeth, widow of Peter Yeager; Anna Eva, deceased widow (this meant that both she and her husband were dead) of Paul Burget (Paul Burckhardt); Jost, deceased; and Anna Marelis, wife of Peter Huber. The date of this Orphans Court record was the 28th of August 1761. In York County will Book B, page 105 is the will of Ann Eve Sweven (could this be a mistranslation of the German female ending ,,Swobin"?) of Paradise Township, York County, dated August 1764 and probated April 3, 1767 in where she names her son, George Swope, and 6(?) daughters....The records of baptism of three of the children named above and two other children have been located in the Lutheran parish register in Leimen, Baden, Germany (See page 1303). The marriage of Georg Schwab and Anna Eva and the births of the other children are probably recorded in another parish near Heidelberg which our researcher has not yet located.î.139,  page 1298 
 

Hans  (Johann ) Jorg (Jeorg) SCHWAB
 Swope Book of Remembrance shows: 
"He was baptized the Sunday following his birth. The godparent was Hans Jorg Boser, citizen at Weyler.(Churchbook in Duehren near Sinsheim: Churchbook in Leimen:). ìWhen Hans Jorg was nineteen years old, he moved with his parents from Duehren to Leimen, a village near Heidelberg and the Bergstrasse Road....Shortly after the move to Leimen, (Yost and Annaís) eldest son, Hans Jörg or Georg, married Anna Eva (some researchers say her maiden name was Schaeffner, but do not give the source of this information)î His father and an unknown number of his fatherís children went to Pennsylvania in 1720**. He remained in Leimen vith his own family. The  News of the NewWorld from his brother-in-law, Johan Eberhardt Riehm, his father, Jost, and his brother, Johannes (a thousand acres of land!), and Jorg  decideded to join them in Penn's Woods. In 1727,  with a group of Palatines, members of the Reformd Church, he traveled to the New World under the leadership of Rev. Georg Michael Weiss. His name disappears from the records of Leimen (see page 1303) after the birth of his son, Jost, in 1724.  His wife's name was Anna Eva. A passenger list of the ship William and Sarah," William Hill, Master, from Rotterdam, dated in Philadelphia the 18th September 1727 includes the names "Hans Jerrick Swaep - 6 persons, Hans Jerick Schaub - 3 persons, Albert Swoap - 1 person."îHans Jerrick Swaep" with a family of six persons,  arrived on the ship William and Sarah and qualified in Philadelphia the 21st of Septenber 1727 .Johann Georg Schwab" and his male companions took the Oath of Allegiance to the British government in the presence of the Governor and the Provincial Council and signed his name. We know that Hans Jorg Schab went directly to the Conestoga Valley home of his brother, Johannes, for on October 2,1727 a letter was addressed to John Georg Schwab in the Conestoga Valley by Rev. Weiss, the leader of the expeedition from the Palatinate to Pennsylvania. He attended the wedding of his brother, Johannes (John) to his second wife, Catharina Elisabeth Graeff in Lancaster County in 1742.
ìGeorge Schwab, Sr., son of Jost (he usually used the name George instead of his full name Hans Jorg or Johann Georg) died in Paradise Township, York County in 1756. Administration Bonds were issued to the administrators of his estate, his vife, Eva, and son, George, blacksmith. Michael Swoope, son of George Schwab, Sr's cousin Johann Georg (or George) Schwab, was the bonds man. The estate of George Swoope (as his name is spelled in the Administration Acoount dated 29 November 1758, showed a balance of pound 245.12.7. In the Orphans Court Dockets, vol. A, Page 193, the personal estate of George Swoope of Paradise Township was distributed among his widow, Anna Eve, and his issue or representatives thereof: George Anna Barbara, wife of Michael Ranck: Eva Elisabeth, widow of Peter Yeager; Anna Eva, deceased widow (this meant that both she and her husband were dead) of Paul Burget (Paul Burckhardt); Jost, deceased; and Anna Marelis, wife of Peter Huber. The date of this Orphans Court record was the 28th of August 1761. In York County will Book B, page 105 is the will of Ann Eve Sweven (could this be a mistranslation of the German female ending ,,Swobin"?) of Paradise Township, York County, dated August 1764 and probated April 3, 1767 in where she names her son, George Swope, and 6(?) daughters....The records of baptism of three of the children named above and two other children have been located in the Lutheran parish register in Leimen, Baden, Germany (See page 1303). The marriage of Georg Schwab and Anna Eva and the births of the other children are probably recorded in another parish near Heidelberg which our researcher has not yet located.î.139,  page 1298 

The Children individually:
**(G.E. Swope is clear that Yost came with 5 children).
 
 

G.E. Swope wrote of Hans Jorg in 1898. His words:  ìHans Jorg Swab arrived in Philadelphia Swet 21 1727 (Col. Rec., Vol. 3, page 597). This is supposed to be the George Swope who settled in the neighborhood of York. He was one of the organizers of Old Christís Lutheran church at York, 1733. George Swope was ëone of his majestyís Justices of the Peace for the County of Lancaster, Aug. 29, 1746í. He was reappointed April 22, 1749. (Col. Rec., Fol. 5, page 378).  Penna Archives 1740 to 1756, page 38, refers to him as ëa principal inhabitant.í George Swope died 1757; his son George was administrator of his estate. Besides the son he had daughters-Anna barbara, maried Michael Rancke; Eva Elizabeth, married Peter Yeager, both of Paradise township, now York county; Anna Eve, married Paul Burget; Anna M., married Peter Huber. George Swope left a widow, Anna Eve. Nothing is known of any of the descendants of his children.î140
