Evelyn: You seem to have lots of info on Seyberts.On the Olive Tree data base I found two ships lists which list Seiberts.
the ship Davy which arrived on Oct 25, 1738 lists Bernard Seibert, Joh.Jaes Seibert, and Johan Wendel Seibert.
The ship list for the St. Andrew which arrived on Oct. 27, 1738 lists Bernard Seibert, and Joh. Jaes. Seibert.
Do you know if these are two different groups of Seiberts? Were the ones on the Davy related and if so how?
I have looked at Ray Bell's Seybert/Sibert Anthology which refers to Bernard arriving on the Davy.
Any info you could provide would be helpful since I an trying to connect my ggggrandfather, Barnard Sybert to the Seybert/Seibert/ Sibert, etc from germany but haven't been successful yet. He was born on Jan. 10, 1807. His father was supposedly an Elias Seybert/Sibert/Seibert.I can't find any reference anywhere to an Elias Seybert.
