VOLUME IV NO. 2 Spring 1995 MOCK FAMILY HISTORIAN 13<br />
JACOB MOCK OF NORTHAMPTON CO "<br />
Submitted by Helene Younger Hawkins<br />
P.O. Box 221086, Newhall, CA 91322<br />
Northamption Co.,PA was formed from Bucks Crawford,114 m. 25 Feb 1836 Fairfield Co.<br />
Co.,PA in 1752. The earliest known Mack in the area is OH John McCrillis<br />
John Mack who is shown in 1728 on a petition in 13.2.6- Daniel Mock b. 1820 PA; m. 18 Jan 1844<br />
Goshenhoppoen, (See MFH Vol. II, No. 1). In 1749 there Fairfield Co.,OH Frances Shoemaker<br />
is a deed for George Mack, unfortunately it is totally 1.3.3- Andrew Mack<br />
illegible and 1 have not been able to tie him in to the 1.3.4 - Henry Mack<br />
other Mack's in the area. 1.3.5 - Joseph Mack<br />
In land records dated 1773, Jacob Mack purchased<br />
land in Richland Twp. and sold it in 1777 and 1763. In<br />
1812 this Jacob Mack has a will filed in Hanover Twp.,<br />
Northampton Co, PA. In this will he lists his wife<br />
Catharina and all of his children. The executor for his<br />
will is his son George. (My 4 g grandfather). The land<br />
thatacob owned in Northampton Co., Pa was bordered<br />
by the Hartzel and Brooder families. Both of these<br />
families married into the Mack family.<br />
In this same time period there is a William Mack<br />
that is listed as having land in Northampton Co., PA. I<br />
feel that there is a connection between these two Mack<br />
families as the Hartzells and Broeders are listed in<br />
various documents with both Mack families.<br />
According to records in Bucks Co., PA, it would<br />
seem that Jacob is the son of Wilhelm (William) Mack<br />
and his 2nd wife Maria Lisa.<br />

and had a family of 6 known children. 4 of these<br />
children have baptismal records in the Christ Reformed<br />
Lutheran Church in Schoenersville, LeHigh, PA. It is<br />
shortly after the death of Jacob that George and his<br />
family sell land in Northampton Co., PA and start their<br />
way to Fairfield Co., OH. According to census records,<br />
the youngest 2 children are listed as being born in PA,<br />
but no record has been found of either of their births.<br />

Fairfield Co., OH. The first land transactions that I have<br />
found for him in 011 are in 1848 in Ross Co. OH In land<br />
grant!, where he purchased and sold land to and from<br />
his son, Daniel. George and his wife, Elizabeth are both<br />
buried in the Stukey Cemetery in Berne, Fairfield Co.<br />
