Doctor Faustus. They had interesting and odd system to their music outlined in the book

Sounds like an original jail, and they considered it freedom, shows have rough things were back then

Perhaps you should first learn how to pronounce Ephrata before doing a story about it.

I have to think that you must be from ‘Ephrata, PA’ to know how it is pronounced. One news station pronounced ‘Lititz’ PA, ‘Lietits’! LOL! 😺!

The first person in my my family to come to America was brother Jethro Jakob Gass and his son Frederick Goss . Jakob was a swiss German migrated from rothenfluh Switzerland. He traveled over to Ephrata in 1727 on the James goodwill by way of David Crockatt, master of Rotterdam . Jakob was baptized in 1728 . He was head of council for a brief period in 1745 before being reinstated in 1746 . He would be succeeded in 1749 and die shortly after . He was a guardian of women's celibate groups . He was a well liked member of the community and had helped print and proof read the first German Bibles from 1742 to 1743 with the agent of Benjamin Franklin. He had a diary that he kept with written accounts of the life of a church member. It was said that brother lamech was also brother Jethro, but in fact I believe it to be his son Jakob Gass JR or his grandson due to the difference of dates .
