1711 Anna Eva ... ; m2 by 1717 Margaretha ...; and m3 by 1725 Anna
Catherine ... (named in his will). Melchert appears on the NY Palatine
subsistence list in 1710 (2A,0Y) and 1712 (2A,1Y). Melchior Voltz and
wife Anna Eva sponsored Nov 1711 bp of Anna Eva, dau of Michael Freymeyer
and Elisabeth. Probably arrived directly at New York in 1710, rather
than via Philadelphia (as in 1974 ms.
"The Descendaents of Peter Folts" by Charles P. Brown, Box 416, R.D. 2,
Altamont, NY). Listed at Livingston Manor, NY 1710-11 by Rupp (Book of
Early Germans) and at Haysbury Camp in 1711 when enlisting for Canada
expedition (Book of Names, page 125). Melchert was naturalized at Albany
3 Jan 1716, on the 1717 Simmendiger census with wife Margaret and 3
children, and ca 1723 drew Burnetsfield lot #2. His will prepared Jan
1725 (Beers "History of Herkimer Co., New York", pages 247-8) mentions
wife Anna Catrina, sons Jacob, Peter, Conrad, and daughters Anna Margaret
and Elizabeth Catrina; executors were Fred. Bell, George Kast, and
Lawrence Harter (will wit. by George S. Smidt, John Williams, and Anna
Bell).

This is also the source of his 7 children and their spouses.
