Nancy Good

Nanse Gut

After 1715 ca.: Nancy was born (probably in Germany) to Peter Good (GC) and his second wife. (1) (Peter's children with his first wife were born about 1712-1715.)

A new translation of will of Nancy's father Peter (1) shows that Nancy has been identified incorrectly as Mary since the original translation of Peter's will into English in about 1754.

1727 Sep 30: Nancy probably arrives in Philadelphia, PA on the Molly along with her father Peter.

Nancy's mother dies, either in Germany, on the emigration voyage, or soon after their arrival in Pennsylvania.

1728: Nancy's father Peter remarries.

?? Was Nancy married to Jacob Graff? The signature of Jacob Graff appears on the proof of the will of Nancy's father Peter. (1) Peter's will names Nancy's children as heirs. Does Jacob Graff sign the proof of Peter's will because he is the father of Nancy's children? -- dg 2008

1753 ca.: Nancy probably has died because her father Peter's will, which is dated 1753, names her children as his hiers rather than Nancy herself. All of Peter's other children are named as heirs.
