Their son Johann Peter Volz (1726-1806) married Eva Elisabetha Jack, (1724-1784), daughter of Kilian and Anna Margaretha Jack, in 1745, and immigrated to America in 1750. Johann Georg Volz, who married Eva Elisabetha's sister Catharina Barbara Jack (1731-?), was Johann Peter's brother. <P> Johann Peter and Eva Elisabetha settled initially at Heidelberg PA, and arrived with their family in NC on June 6, 1767 [Records of the Moravians in NC 1:359]. They were among the founding members of Friedberg Moravian Church. The surname later becomes Foltz. Other spellings, e.g. Folts and Fults, are also seen.<P> <HR> <H4>Second Generation</H4> Children of Johann Peter Volz and Eva Elisabeth Jack<BR> Johann Stephan Volz (1747-?), probably died young<BR> Johann Peter Volz (1749-1825) m.

Jacob Wesner (1762-1832), s/o Matthias Wesner and Anna Barbara Giesy<BR> Johann Heinrich Volz (1766-aft. 1806); probably the Henry Folts who married Elizabeth Smith, Rowan Co. 1790<P> *Records of the Moravians in NC 1:361, November 9, 1767, "Yesterday Andreas Volz, Joseph Holder, Stauber and their families arrived from PA." This is probably an incorrect transcription of the original German, and must refer to <A HREF="volck.html">Andreas VOLCK</A> (1722-1790), who is known from other records to have moved to NC with his nephew <A HREF="holder.html">Joseph Holder</A> in 1767. Andreas VOLZ presumably had arrived in NC with his parents and siblings in June of the same year.<P> Johann Peter's will suggests that Eva Elisabeth was called Elisabeth, and that Eva Catharina was called Eva. Matthew Nading's will names his wife as Eva Catharina.<P> <HR> <H4>Third Generation</H4> Probable children of Johann Peter Volz and Anna Barbara Wesner<BR> Jacob Foltz (1785-1845) m. <A HREF="zimmerman.html">Elizabeth Zimmerman</A> (1792-1856)<BR> Anna Susanna Foltz (1798-1849) m. Gaspar Todd (1797-1871)<P> In 1800 they have one male under 10, two males 10-16, two females under 10, and three females 10-16. Who are the other children?<P> ----------<P> Children of Johann Jacob Volz and Johanna Volck<BR> Christina Margaret Volz (1799-?)<P> We believe that she is the single Margaret Folts living in Forsyth Co. through the 1870 census. <P> Were there other children in this family?<P> ----------<P> Children of Johannes Volz and Anna Barbara Fischer<BR> son, baptized March 1780<BR> Anna Maria Foltz (ca. 1786-1872?) m. <A HREF="wagemann.html">Christian Wagemann</A> (1787-1828)<BR> Anna Catharina Foltz (1788-1862) did not marry<BR> George E. Foltz (1798-1871) m. <A HREF="reich.html">Verona Reich</A> (1802-1879)<P> In 1790 John Folts has 4 females in his household, but no males except himself. This suggests that the baby baptized in 1780 may have died young. In 1800 there are one male under 10 (George) and two females 10-16 (Anna Maria and Anna Catharina). Anna Catharina's will names her brother George Foltz and sister Anna Maria Waggeman, also two cousins Anna and Elizabeth Foltz. <P> ----------<P> Moravian records and census records suggest that the following women were sisters. Anna (Rosina) and Elisabeth are probably the cousins mentioned in the will of Anna Catharina Foltz, cited above, so their father is probably another son of Johann Peter Foltz and Eva Elisabeth Jack. Can anyone tell us which one he was? We suspect Friedrich, but need more evidence.<P> Catharina Foltz (1783-1850) did not marry<BR> Elisabeth Foltz (1788-1870) did not marry<BR> Rebecca Foltz (1796-1887) m. <A HREF="spach.html">Johann Friedrich Spach</A> (d. 1823)<BR> Anna Susanna Foltz (1801-1872) m.
