The bible of Sebastian Reyer was printed in 1713. The text within it is written in German. In 1997 the book is now 284 years old. The bible seems to have been passed down to Sebastian's daughter, Maria Catrina or Maria Catherina, who married Jacob Conrad. We find in an old list of land owners, that a Jacob Conrad in 1779 owned in Manheim Township, Lancaster County, 100 acres of land. The bible then followed in the hand of Joseph Conrad, then to John Conrad.
The text on the inside cover of the bible was entered in 1742. One would have to wonder if Sebastian came to America with this German bible. Sebastian Royer is said to have been naturalized at a meeting of the Supreme Court in Philadelphia, Apr. 11-13, 1743 .It is quite likely that his buying land of the Penns at this time led to his naturalization.
The bible is now owned by Vic Leininger of Pennsylvania. The bible was purchased from an estate sale by Vic's grandfather. Upon his grandfather’s passing, Vic's mother asked him if there was anything special from his grandfather's estate that he especially wished to have. Vic asked her if he might have the Sebastian Reyer bible. I can just imagine the look on Vic's face when his mother graciously gave him the bible. I know I would have been overwhelmed just to be able to hold it in my hands as Sebastian had over 250 years ago, let alone be the new caretaker as Vic then became at that moment in time. I know Vic will take very good care of the bible, and am more than delighted that he has supplied the Royer Data Collection Center with photographs of the bible, so it could be shared by all. Thank You very much for your contribution. We all will owe you a great debt for sharing and caring for this rare part of our Royer History.

3567 Samuel P. Brittain was born on March 9, 1750 in Middletown, New Jersey to William and Mary (Collins) Brittain. He married Sarah Bright in about 1771. They were the parents of Mary, Jeremiah, Elizabeth, William, Ellen, Amos, and Sarah. He died in April 1795 in Baltimore County, Maryland.

Samuel's mother Mary was of French descent and strongly supported the colonies during the revolution. William however, was a devoted King's man. This division in the family influenced their children. The three youngest sons, William, James and Joseph were Tories and went to New Brunswick, Canada to fight for the crown. Nathaniel, Zeboeth and Samuel fought for the Colonies in the New Jersey forces.

3579 Sebastian Mathias Rheyer (Royer), son of Hans Georg & Maria Magdalena Rheyer (Royer), was born 1676 in Bohl Pfalz, Germany. He is our first direct ancestor in America. On Feb. 15, 1707 he married Agnes Flockirth, daughter of Johann Wendell Muller. Sebastian & Agnes were the parents of eight children born in Bohl and registered in the Hassloch Reformed Church records. Their youngest daughter and ninth child was born in Lancaster County, PA.
(I'm listing the eight children: Emig (Amos), George, Maria Magdalena, Anna Margaretha, Martin, Samuel (the authors' link), Henrich, Maria Catharina & Anna Catherine).
Sebastian came to the United States (sic) in 1718. It is thought he returned and possibly brought his family later because Henry was born in Bohl in 1721. In the book, Ships Passengers of "Delaware" 1641-1823, it lists Sebastian 1726. He was naturalized at a meeting of the Supreme Court in Philadelphia April 11-13, 1743.
On Jan. 26, 1743, Sebastian received a patent from grant of William Penn family for 281 acres of land in Warwick Township, Lancaster, County, PA and Feb. 20, 1757, he bought 153 acres from John Wilson. He later had 500 acres, in all, about 30 miles north of Lancaster, PA about one mile south of Brickerville, 1 mile east of 501 on Brubaker Road then left on Rief-Snyder Road. The trustees from the German Zion Reformed Church where Sebastian later was a deacon, accepted 2-1/2 acres of this land for a church and a cemetery on Sept. 21, 1747. Another tract went to the Emmanuel Lutheran Church were Agnes attended.
The Zion Reformed Church still stands on the hill up the ravine in which Sebastian's home nestled. The home is now gone but the church has been restored and is used several times a year.
Sebastian was a prosperous and strict churchman. He died near Brickerville in Warwick Township, Lancaster County in 1758. His last will was executed Aug. 3, 1758. It is thought he is buried in the Lutheran Cemetery in East Brickerville, PA.
