    Notes 
    • He is buried Springfield.
    • Jacob Oberholtzer, Jr. was naturalized along with his father in 1743.
      I've seen "Deborah Haldeman, dau of Christian", listed as his wife. However, not only would a daughter of Christian's have been too young to have mothered Jacob's children, but the late Barbara Ford, genealogist for the Overholser Family Assn for 20 years, assured me that there had never been a marriage between an Oberholtzer and a Haldeman; further, that Christian Haldeman did not have a daughter named Deborah, and that Jacob Oberholtzer's wife was Deborah Krey.
