Jacob Leiter died in February 1764, leaving a widow, Elizabeth, who was his second wife, and seven children: John , Christian; Abraham; Jacob; Peter; Barbara, and Anna, wife of Peter Good. One daughter, Fronika, died before her father, leaving two children.
↑ Barbara and her two sisters, Anna and Fronika, are named in that order in their father's will, suggesting that Barbara was the oldest of the three. (He also named his sons in order of birth.) Both Anna and Fronika were married, with Fronkica (the presumed youngest) known to be the mother of two children. Neither Anna nor Fronika could have been married, and Fronika could not have been the mother of two children, if Jacob's second wife was their mother. If Barbara was the oldest of the three sisters, she, too, must have been born before 1748.
