Hans Jacob SUMMY⁽⁵⁷⁾⁽⁵⁸⁾⁽³⁾ was born about 1711 in , Alsace, , Switzerland. He died in Feb 1762 in New Holland, Lancaster Co., PA.⁽³⁾ He was buried in Feb 1762 in Mennonite Cemetery, Groffdale, PA.⁽³⁾ He was known only as Jacob in America and took over the plantation of his wife and added considerable land to it during his lifetime. His will is filed in Book X, Vol. 2, Page 11 in Lancaster County, Pa. and was probated 7 Feb 1762. In it he says that "it is my will that they shall not drive away my mother as long as she liveth". Obviously his mother was living when he wrote the will in 1761.

The only mention of his life is in several tax records and in a visit by some Moravian missionaries who reported that "he was not at all interested in their message." History records that he was buried at the Groffdale Mennonite Church.

Barbara was the widow of John Jacob Bear. She had three girls to her first marriage and inherited his plantation. In 1759 she and her daughters signed over all land rights to her husband, Jacob Summy. History records that she was buried at the Groffdale Mennonite
Church. Parents: Hans Peter SUMMY and Maria Magdalena HALDY.

Known only as Michael in America. He was in Pennsylvania until 1758 or later. It is thought that he moved to the Yadkin River Valley in Rowan (now Davidson) County, North Carolina. His sons had land in what is now the Uwharrie National Forest which covers parts of Davidson, Randolph, and Montgomery Counties in North Carolina.

Barbara Mercklin and Michael Summi are shown as the parents of Eve Barbara Summi at her baptism, 7 Nov 1746, at Seltenreich Reformed Church in Lancaster County, PA. This is the only known record of her. There are Merkley and Merckey families in Lancaster & Berks Counties, Pa., but no record of a Mercklin family.

It was a German custom to add "in" to the names of females. Some day it may be possible to identify her family. There is an old will in Berks County, PA which lists Barbara Summy as a legatee, but it does not identify her family name.

Parents: Hans Peter SUMMY and Maria Magdalena HALDY.

He was married to Barbara MERCKEL about 1745. Children were: Eve Barbara SUMI, Peter SUMEY, Magdalena SUMMI, Anna Margaretha SUMI, Michael SUMMEY, Catherine SUMMAY, William SUMMY, John SUMMY.

Hans Peter SUMMY⁽⁵⁷⁾⁽⁵⁸⁾⁽³⁾⁽⁷⁷⁾ was born on 3 Oct 1675 in Lauenen, Canton Bern, Switzerland (Alsace/Palitinat). He died before 1750 in Groffdale, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. He has reference number TQ6B-TN. Hans Peter was the son of Caspar Sumi from Saanen, Switzerland. Tradition has the family exiled from Canton Aargau and migrating to Offenburg in Middle Baden, then to Northern Alsace where PEter was a heardsman near Rexingen. It was there that he married in the Lutheran Church. There is no record as to when he converted to the "Anabaptists" or "Mennonites". Obviously it was after his marriage, possibly while they lived in Holland. In their travels and migrations they could accumulate little property and they
apparently had to work at whatever the nobility provided.

Tradition says that when Alsace was ceded to France, they migrated to Holland and from there he came to America in 1733 with his wife, Maria, and family. He was the earliest known minister at the Groffdale Mennonite Church in Earl Township, Lancaster County, PA after the departure of Hans Rudolph Nagele about 1735.

The known records of Maria Haldy Sumi are in the ship arrivals in Colonial Recordds; as a sponsor for Hans Michael Sumi's daughter, Magdalena, at Tulpehocken Church in 1749; in son, Hans Jacob Sumi's will; and in the marriage records in northern Alsace at the Diedendorf Reformed Church. (The location is now Berg-sur-Moselle in France - Zip 57570 Cattenom.) [Source: Annette Burgert "Eighteenth Century Emigrants from the Northern Alsace"] On the passenger records she is shown as age 58 but those records were notoriously inaccurate as to ages and from the ages of her children it appears she was much younger.

Hans Peter SUMMY II⁽⁵⁷⁾⁽⁵⁸⁾⁽³⁾ was born about 1713 in Alsace, France or Sumiswaldt, Switzerland. He died on 30 Aug 1787 in Lincolnton, Lincoln Co., North Carolina.⁽³⁾ d. - "in good health"

Peter was a member of the German Reformed Church in Berks Co., PA from 1735 to 1755. He placed an ad in a Germantown (German) newspaper in 1761 which possibly means that he was selling the land he owned in Jackson Twp, Lebanon Co. and/or had not yet migrated to North Carolina. The first records of him in North Carolina are Land Grants in Tryon/Lincoln County in 1765. His will (1787) is on file in Lincoln Co., NC. New information, in 1994, indicates that they may have lived in Frederick Co., MD for a time before going on to Lincoln Co., NC.
