“Jos. Mishler”, Cocalico Township, 1771–1773 (100 acres), and “Jacob Mishler”, Earl Township, 1773. Joseph Ulrich died in 1756, so the Cocalico Joseph is probably a son (Veronica’s brother). Ship: Joseph and Ulrich Mischler on the Phoenix, 15 Sep 1749 (Rupp). See Lancaster sources scanned for family surnames.
