Peter Zaugg, b. 20 Dec 1661, Signau. He probably went into hiding with his father and may have moved to Alsace or Germany and is possibly (because of the naming of their children) the father of the Mennonites Ulrich and Peter Zug who arrived in Pennsylvania in 1727.

He was married to Barbara Bachman (d. 1758), sister of Michael Bachman of Lancaster County. They joined the German Baptist Brethren (Dunkers) in 1741 and 1742 at White Oaks. Almost all the children became Dunkards. Their daughter Christina was a Mennonite. Ulrich bought 345 acres in Warwick Township, Lancaster County on 20 Jul 1743 from Michael Bachman.1
