Rev. Jacob Gaetschalk1

M, b. circa 1670, d. 1763
     Rev. Jacob Gaetschalk was born circa 1670 at Cleeves, Holland.1 He immigrated circa 1702 to Germantown, Philadelphia Co. (now), PA.1 He died in 1763 at Towamencin Twp., Montgomery Co., PA, In 1708 he wrote to Holland, giving the history of the origin of the Germantown Mennonite congregation, also stating the fact that the Rev. William Rittenhouse had died and that he was now the only surviving minister.
On May 9, 1708, he joined with four other brethren in a letter to Amsterdam, asking for some catechisms for the children and little testaments for the young, stating that only one Bible was among the membership of the church.
He was a literary man and was capable to use three languages, Dutch, German, and English. He took an active part in the translation of the Martyr's Mirror, from the Dutch to the German and its printing at Ephrata and was one of those who carefully read and corrected the proofs.
He purchased land in Germantown and later in Towamencin Township (now in Montgomery County); died in 1763, aged about 97 years, and it is supposed that his remains found a resting place in the graveyard adjoining the Towamencin Mennonite Church near Kulpsville.

He was buried in July 1888 at Peter Miller Reeves Cemetery, Knob Creek Road just south of Sunset Drive, Johnson City, TN, Findagrave #131201546.
Note: from the book Ancestral Sketches by LeRoy Reeves and the Family of Edward Reeves and Jane Melvin, by Willie Reeves Hardin Bivins (igranddaughter of Edmund Pendleton Gaines):

"Edmund Pendleton Gains, my mother's father, was the nephew of General Edmund Pendleton Gains, for whom he was named. His father was a wealthy man, at one time owning among other things, an inn and one hundred slaves. But my great-grandfather lost his fortune, mostly, I understood, from going security for his friends.

Grandfather took an interest in one of the black boys on his father's place and taught him to read and write. After the slaves were freed this Negro went North and did well.

Grandfather was a man of Deep religion and of a mild temperament. I have heard my mother say that his thoughts were always of what he could do to help the women folks of his family and make them happy. He was a school teacher and wrote a beautiful hand.

He married Emily Esther Easley, and they had two children, a baby boy who died at birth, and my mother. He was not a large man, and through him I inherited my own short stature. He was also a very modest man.

He spent his last years in his daughter's home, but died before I was born. He read aloud to my brother a great deal, especially from the Youth's Companion.

He brought with him to his last home, a gray mare named Mittie. It was on her I learned to ride, for she was very gentle. A short loper, having no other gait.

When he was a young man he was chopping wood and a piece flew up and hit him near the eye. In later life he developed a cancer where this had injured him. In those days there was little to be done for even skin cancer and two or three years later he died. Though he suffered greatly, he would never take anything to dull the pain, even at the last, for he said he wanted to meet his Maker with a clear mind.

He was buried in the Reeves Cemetery, and in 1929 when my husband and I went back to Tennessee on business, we had a monument placed at his and his wife's graves.

He and Grandmother made their home down on what was called Reedy Creek, near Kingsport. When my mother was a baby he was putting on her shoes for her and bent a toe and broke it. He felt terrible about it, for he was devoted to her. I have a small figurine that he brought her when she was a child, and a broken pitcher from a set of doll china he gave her.

I wish I knew more about him to tell, for I know it was all good. But there is very little else I know."
