      The original typescript was digitally transcribed by April Kline, who is researching her Huber/Hoover ancestors in the Mohawk Valley. April is specifically searching for information on the parents of Jacob Hoover, who was born 17 April 1760 in Philiadelphia, PA and died January 22, 1847 in Manheim, Montgomery County, NY. Jacob lived with his father and brothers Heinrich Huber/Henry Hoover (born c. 1744 Switzerland and died 1823 Little Falls, NY) and Johann Heinrich Huber/John Henry Hoover (born c.1745 Switzerland and died 1840 Little Falls, NY) in the Herkimer area during the Revolutionary War. In 1781 Jacob Hoover married Margaret Eigenbrodt (b.1765 Manheim, NY; d. 1820 Manheim, NY). April is interested in hearing from anyone researching the Hoover and Eigenbrodt families.
