David & Abraham LEVI
My husband descends from Abraham Levi (Levy) b 1764 Pennsylvania. He married Eva Hillgass b 1768, daughter of REV WAR VET George Peter Hillgass b 1735 PA. I think Abraham's parents are David Levi & Margretha Eshbaugh.
I am wondering if anyone has the same Levi ancestry, and I also want to know about the Jew's in America before the REV WAR.
Abrahams daughter Rebecca Sarah Levi b 1799 married married John Grimley Kepler b 1794. Their daughter Salli Rebecca Kepler b 1835 was referred to by my mother in law as her " half Jewish grandma".
I'd love to know more of the Levi story. Any history and genealogy is appreciated. I do not know where David Levi came from, and I would love to know more.
Thank you.
