4) NOTES (with source citations as indicated in brackets):
Information about this family was obtained from:
a) the book Early Germans of New Jersey by Chambers with family history information[1].
b) the book More Palatine Families, some Immigrants to the Middle Colonies 1717-1776 and their European Origins, Plus New Discoveries on German Families Who Arrived in Colonial New York in 1710 by Henry Z. Jones[2].
c) An e-book published by Hartman and Byrd titled The Descendants of Johannes Trimmer with bare genealogical information[3].
Maria --?-- was born in about 1700[1,3], probably in Rheinland-Pfalz. Her maiden name may have been Dierdorff. Some online trees (e.g., FamilySearch Family Tree) link her to Anthony Dierdorff and Anna Mary Yager as parents.
She married Johannes Trimmer in about 1720, and had eight (?) children, probably all in Rhineland-Pfalz[1,3]. They were:
* Matthias Trimmer (1722-1793), married Anna Martha Nachbar (1724-1770).
* Anthonius Trimmer (1725-1755), married Elisabeth Houshall (1723-1781).
* Andreas Trimmer (1726-1793), married Susanna Houshall (1729-????).
* Amos Trimmer (1727-????).
* George Trimmer (1728-1807), married Catherine --?-- (1724-1773).
* Harman Trimmer (1730-1810), married Martha Case (1733-????).
* Hannah Trimmer (1733-????).
* Mary Trimmer (1737-????).
The Johannes Trimmer family probably arrived at Philadelphia in the ship "Davy" on 28 October 1738[1-3]. His name is signed by the clerk to the oath of allegiance as Hans Timmer. His first wife, Mary, the mother of his first eight (?) children, is said to have died on the voyage.
Johannes Trimmer married Elsje Catharina Engel soon after arriving in New Jersey, and they had eight more children. All of the children of the first two wives are named in the reference books noted above.
If she died aboard ship at sea in 1738, Maria (--?--) Trimmer was probably buried at sea, and there are no burial records for her.
