Anna Maria Shaffer and they moved to Lykens Twp., Crawford Co., OH. Jacob

In searching the LDS films I have discovered:
Abraham Kirgus (father of Jacob who married Rosina) was born 5 Aug. 1741 in
Schiltach, Germany and died 4 May 1806 in Erdlinsbach, Schiltach Valley. He
married 9 Feb. 1772/3 Juliana Wolber. Juliana Wolber was born 24 June 1745 to
Hans Jacob and Anna Maria Wollber.
Abraham was the son of Johann Martin Kirgus d 5 Feb. 1772, and Susanna. They
were married 22 June 1717.
Johann Martin Kirgus was the son of Ludwig Kyrgus d 27 Mar. 1705 and married 20
Nov. 1694 Caterine Haas. Catherine Haas was born 6 Sept. 1671 the daughter of
Mathias and Magdalena Haas.
I need to study the pages of the microfilm and have not had the time. The
family appears first in Erdlinsbach, the Schiltach Valley.
I hope this helps other researchers.
