  2. Jacob Oberholtzer, in Find A Grave.

    born est 1686 in Zürich, Switzerland (no evidence for place)
    died before Feb 11, 1755, the date the administrators bond on his estate was filed

    The entry doesn't name his parents, but his entry is linked to Hans Jacob and Maria (Nussler) Oberholtzer. They married 15 Apr 1690 in Steinsfurt, Germany [Mennosearch], and there is no evidence they were ever in Pennsylvania, while Martin Obersholzer is known to have been in Pennsylvania and to have had a son named Jacob.
