recorded as giving 1716 and 1720 as birth years. Evidence, based on
date on Grandparents' mar., possible birthdate of Father, and John
Michael as first sons throughout this Pfautz family -- plus
circumstantial evidence that John Jacob Knutz was Jacob's
father-in-law--Kuntz came from Lower Neckar Valley also, on same ship
as the Pfautz in 1727, moved to Digges' Choice (now York-Adams Co., Pa.)
