Barbara
(Abt 1691 - Abt 1771)
Barbara's maiden surname is often given as "Shenk," but this unverified. By whatever maiden surname, Barbara landed in Philadelphia on 21 September 1731 aboard Brittania out of Rotterdam, Holland, with a stop for supplies at Cowes, England. Her children, Michael, Joseph and Peter, accompanied her. Family legend holds that her husband died at sea. She is listed as a widow upon arrival in America.
