Isaac REICHELDERFER. The following is a letter written in German by Isaac to his uncles.

Philadelphia, Feb 6, 1859

Dear Uncles: Jacob Reichelderfer, Henry Reichelderfer, John Reichelderfer, William Stump, Samuel Fetherolf, and to all the rest; too many all to name. I am in good health and hope that these few lines will find you also, all in good health and likewise all the other friends that live in your part of the world. Times here are still hard, however, not quite so hard as they were a year ago, and I think by next summer will be much better. By all signs as it now appears there will be a good deal of building here next summer. For my part I did not have much to complain of on that account, for I always had work through all the hard times. Though the wages were low, it was better than doing nothing, for I have made a living. But I cannot write concerning my brothers and sisters for I have not heard from them for a long time, and have seen none of them since I came back from Ohio. I am not at home since I came back from you. On that account I do not know much from Albany. Jacob Reichelderfer, why did you not come to Philadelphia when you were in Pennsylvania a year ago? I would like to have spent a few days with you and to have shown you the elephant, and I think you would not have regretted it. I would have written long ago but I have been all the time expecting a letter from cousin William Fetherolf. He promised me when he was here last spring that he would write to me as soon as he got home but I have not heard from him since I left. We have not had much winter so far; very little snow but a great deal of rain. I do not know much further to write for this time so much from me your friend and well wisher. Isaac Reichelderfer Write soon and don't forget it. (Excuse my bad writing for my ink and pens are bad.) Direct your letter South East Corner Third and Buttonwood Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Parents: Andrew REICHELDERFER and Magdalena HAGENBACH.

Johan REICHELDERFER emigrated about 1709 from Pennsylvania. He was born in Germany. The Reichelderfers lived in a village, Reichelsdorf which was near Nuremburg, Germany. Some went to Hamburg, in the Palatinate and from this place Johan Reicheldorfer (Reichelderfer) and his wife Cadarina emigrated to the new world. The Monnet Family Genealogy states there is some evidence that Johan Reichelderfer was in America as early as 1709. Reichelsdorf means rich village and it's inhabitants were known as Reicheldorffer, a rich villager. The coat of arms has 2 unicorns and 2 scrolls. Johan owned 100 acres of land and paid quit-rents (a fixed rent formerly paid by a freeholder, whereby he was released from feudal services) before 1734 in Hanover Township, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. In 1934 Laura Alice Buchanan Reichelderfer, her daughter Mary Werkman and husband John Werkman visited Pennsylvania. Mr. E.D. Greenawalt of Albany took them to see the New Bethel Cemetery, Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. The church had a pipe organ which had been used in an older church on the same site. The oldest grave stone inscription was in German, but the translation was "Here lies Catherine Reichelderfer, was born in 1727 the 24 June and died the 23 August 1793". Members of the family had been buried previously in an older cemetery where the markers no longer showed the inscriptions. On page 926 of the Monnet Family Genealogy it states that the Reichelderfers owned a section of land in the northwestern part of Albany Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania, which was familiarly known as the Eck, meaning corner. It looks like a corner and seems to be hemmed in by the mountains. Years ago it was the center of great activity. There were two forges and a charcoal furnace in operation in this section.

Spouse: Cadarina (REICHELDERFER). Children were: Frederick REICHELDERFER, Henrich REICHELDERFER.
