• Notes

  It is possible that this person is Hans Bürki, the well-known Mennonite who struggled with Swiss officials and was likely the Elder Hans Bürki of Pennsylvania. Hans Bürki was born in 1651 and was married to Barbara Langenegger. It is unknown if her surname was actually Langenegger or if that was the designation of where they formerly lived (farm called Langenegg, which was in the Burkholder family for generations).
