Surnames: Eschenbach, Muntz, Fink, Gilbert, Pearce, Prain
I am descended from Andrew (Andreas) Eschenbach (#1) the Moravian Missionary (born. in Naumburg, Saxony in 1710 and died in Berks County PA in. 1763). I am descended through Andrew's first wife, Johanna Catharina Muntz (Mintz, Mintzer, etc.)

One of their children was Andrew Eschenbach (# 2)--born Berks County PA in 1745 and died in Monroe, County PA. in 1833.

Andrew # 2 was PROBABLY married twice--first to an Elizabeth Zimmerman and then to a Susannah Fink. (Debate and speculation about his wives is almost certain!!)

Andrew # 2 had a son Joseph Eschenbach (b. 1807 in Monroe County?, Pennsylvania). Joseph was married to Maria Gilbert in PA and moved to Wisconsin c. 1843. Joseph died in Wausau, Wisconsin (Marathon County) in 1887.

Joseph and Maria (Gilbert) Eschenbach had a daughter Delilah Eschenbach (b. 1842 in PA and died 1913 in Marathon County, Wisconsin.). Delilah married Henry Lucas Pearce in Portage County, Wisconsin in 1860..

Delilah (Eschenbach) Pearce and Henry Lucas Pearce had a daughter, Alice Letitia Pearce (1864-1938).

Alice L. Pearce married John G. Prain Sr. (in Marathon County, Wisconsin).

Their son was John G. Prain Jr. (1893-1964) m. Ella Treptow.

Their son was Warren C. Prain (1923-1983) m. Irene Schael.

I am their son, Jon R. Prain (b. 1961 in Marathon, County Wisconsin).

I have done a good bit of research on this family--but I am always in need of new and improved data. I am willing to correspond and exchange ideas and research.
