The Journals & Papers of David Shultze, Vol II

I purchased a copy of "the Journals & Papers of David Shultze, Vol II" but hadn’t made time to study it until I received a letter from Elwyn Simons, 2518 Lanier Place, Durham, NC 27705-5006. His letter, in part, reads:

I just found out from Mr Moyer - the Schwenkfelder librarian that in Vol. I of "The Journals and papers of David Schultz" there is a quote from a will of Abraham Moyer, resident in the Goshenhoppen, PA area, apparently dated 1786 but seemingly not filed in that year - [Schultze had written several drafts of his will] - a quote to the effect "to my eldest daughter Barbara wafe of Michael Roeder now living in the State of Maryland"

This seems to be the proof needed that Michael Roeder & Barbara removed from New Goshenhoppen area to Maryland. Now I just have to find a better connection with them and the Jacob Reader who married Rosina Wagner.
