I'm looking for the parents of Jacob Francis (1777-1849) of Amity Twp, Berks County, PA. He owned land in Amity Twp and was buried at St. Paul's Reformed (now UCC) in Amityville. He married Susanna Rosina Wann (1777-1843) daughter of William Wann. She also is buried at St. Paul's Reformed in Amityville. I'm also looking for more information on William Wann (died 1785). His will states that he was "of Amity Township". He married an Elisabeth who died in 1816 in Cumru Township, Berks County, PA. Any information would be appreciated
