'It is not yet clear but he may have been the Jacob Schantz who arrived in Philadelphia on 8 Oct 1737 on the ship "Charming Nancy" from Germany with a group of Mennonites and Amish. Also on board the "Charming Nancy" in 1737 was his possible mother Catherina, Hans Schantz (his possible brother to Lehigh County?) and other possible siblings, Barbara, Catrina, Elizabeth, Ferona, Christian and Magdalena Schantz.'
