Here's all that I have on David. I'm am at least indirectly related to David by way of Christina Sonnifrank.
"David never came to the USA. David was a full blooded Irishman who went to Scotland and married a Scottish woman. He returned to Ireland and raised his Scotch-Irish family"
-Letter from Henry S. Ritchey to his brother John Nov 1, 1939. His son was Jacob Ritschy.
Jacob Ritschy came to this country during the Revolutionary War fighting for the British Crown, after the war was over, stayed in this country and married a German woman(Polly Shuhmacherin). He was a Revolutionary War Soldier from Paxtang, now Dauphin County, who joined a company organized by Reverend John Elder of Paxtang Presbyterian Church. He moved after the war to Loundon Co., Va. He then moved to Rockingham CO., VA, and then to Blue Knob, Union Twp, Bedford Co., PA. Jacob son was Soloman.
Soloman married Maria Agatha Schmidt daughter of Frederick Schmidt and Christina (Sonnenfrank) Sonifrank on 30 May 1814 in Rockingham CO., VA.
