Frederick Philip WENTZ
Apollonia HARTMAN |
Husband: Frederick Philip WENTZ
Birth: 1 Oct 1722, Philadelphia, Philadelphia Co., Pa Death: 30 Dec 1803 Disposition: buried Wentz's Reformed Church, Worcester, Montgomery Co., PA Apparently our subject's tombstone and numerous other records call him, "Philip," but his will calls him, "Frederick." All I can figure is that both were his given names, with Philip probably being his call name. |
Marriage: |
Wife: Apollonia / Appellonia HARTMAN
Birth: 27 Sep 1729 Death: 27 May 1807 Disposition: buried Wentz's Reformed Church, Worcester, Montgomery Co., PA Some online files show our subject as having a prior wife, "Abigail." This is possibly an error due to misspelling or mis-hearing the nickname, "Appy," as "Abby," then mis-interpreting "Abby" as Abigail. I've seen it happen before with given name Apollonia. In any case, the conservative approach here is to assume one wife unless proof of another is unequivocal. "Apollonia" is a feminized form of male "Apollo," from Greek mythology; other spellings are misspellings. |
