The following notes are all mixed up at this point. I'm only gathering things from people and will go back and follow up on them when the notes make more sense. But right now, I'm only putting things here so I can fnd them.From Kathy Wilding — Nipomo, California (Author's note - at this point I believe Kathy is looking at a different Henrich Zoll. There seems to be another family of Zolls in the lower part of PA. However, they use the same Christian names as the family up in the Carbon and Leigh counties of PA area. So research on this family name during that time period can be a bit confusing - 5 Aug 2003).
1749, September 5 -- Henrich Zoll immigrated September 15, 1749 aboard the ship Edinburg.
1752, March 31 -- Henrich Zoll was married to Margaret Runckel on March 31, 1752 at the Lutheran church in Trappe, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.
1757, February 9 -- Anna Elisabeth Zoll, daughter of Henrich and Margaret Zoll, was christened on February 9, 1757 at the same church.
Henrich Zoll was naturalized on April 14, 1762 in Frederick County, Maryland.
Henrich Zoll is mentioned in the will of his father-in-law Jeremiah Runckle, Philadelphia County October 3, 1762. Margaret had died by that time.
Henrich Zoll and wife Catharine had son Matheus Zoll baptized in April 1767 by Jacob Lischy. This is recorded as York County, Pennsylvania but I wonder if he served several congregations and the family actually lived in Maryland.
Her ancestor was in Frederick County, Maryland for about 30 years. This Henrich Zoll was probably his uncle but there is still a possibility that he was the father.
