Linda,
My ancestor Jacob Christman born in 1711 in Würtenburg, Germay, arrived in the port of Philadelphia, PA, on September 16, 1736, aboard the ship named the Princess Augusta.
He settle in Upper Milford Township, Northampton County known today as Lehigh County, near Sigmunds Furnace a place close to Berks County line.
He married probably after is arrival, Eva Margaret whose maiden name is unknown. They had altogether seven children.
In 1761, he died accidentally on his farm at the age 50 years.
Sorry, I do not have any information about the arrival of your Jacob.
I wish you good luck in your research, Georges
