[10058] It has been at least 35 years since we started collecting data on the Gnaegi family and there are still many discrepancies to sort out. What follows should be no means be considered totally accurate...rather, it represents what has been collected to date and should be considered a work in progress.

Our first informant was Eber Cockley of the Somerset County Historical Society in Meyersdale, PA. Later information came from several printed works mentioned in my bibliography and the authors did not agree with one another regarding the number of children, etc. Because the family used many different spellings of the surname, the records were difficult to follow. For the sake of clarity, the spelling Gnaegi is being used in this database.

Most of the records show that Elizabeth Landis was the wife of Christian Gnaegi and it was many years before we learned that his first wife was Anna (Nancy) Seiler and she was supposedly the mother of all the children. However, a new search should be undertaken to see if additional proof can be located. [10056] Ezra Kanagy, compiler, Kanagy Roots and a Branch (Sugarcreek, OH: Schlabach Printers, 1987)

[10217] There are many different theories about the date and place of birth for Johannes Gnaegi, as well as the name of his first wife. It is entirely possible that we will never find the answers to the many questions surrounding his life. There were early Anabaptist Gnaegi families living in Steffisburg, Switzerland (near Lake Thun) who later went to the Alsace area of St. Marie-aux-mines and there were other Gnaegi families in the Palatine who could have been related.

What can be proved is that Johannes emigrated to America in 1742 aboard the ship Francis and Elizabeth, along with other Amish families named Yoder, Miller and Zook, with whom he would continue to be associated in Pennsylvania.

Several sources give the name of his first wife as Mary Holden, an English woman who was supposedly the mother of his first two children. She died on the voyage to America. J. Virgil Miller, in his Both Sides of the Ocean, suggests that the first wife of Johannes was a daughter of Christian Yoder and, after the death of his wife, Johannes married her sister, Magdalena Yoder, a common practice at that time.

By 1747 Johannes Gnaegi had land in Upper Bern Township, Berks Co., PA, which he held until 1763 when he sold to his neighbors, Jacob Kauffman and Christian Beiler. Johannes then moved to Bethel Twp. on the Little Swatara Creek, Dauphin Co, PA, which is now Lebanon Co., where he owned a mill and farms totaling over 400 acres. [10214] Eugene Ellis Kenaga, compiler, Descendants of Johannes Gnage and Related Families (Midland, MI: BBS Printing, 198 — Pg 33 : Born 1720, Canton Bern, Switzerland.
[10215] J. Virgil Miller, compiler, Both Sides of the Ocean - Amish-Mennonites from Switzerland to America (Morgantown, P — Pg 229 : Miller gives ca 1695 as date of birth, with place named Boehl (in the Palatine) and names the parents as Hans Gnaegi and Barbara Muller. Johannes' marriage to the first wife in England is shown as 1717, yet the first child was not born until 1740. It is my belief that a generation has been missed and the Palatine census lists need further exploration. The Hans Gnaegi in Alsace was probably a relative, but perhaps a grandfather instead of father?
[10216] Ezra Kanagy, compiler, Kanagy Roots and a Branch (Sugarcreek, OH: Schlabach Printers, 1987) — Pg 15 : Date of birth is shown as 1720, with place of birth Arrur, Canton Bern, Switzerland. I believe the author meant Aarau in Canton Aargau, as no place named "Arrur" has been located.
