Notes for JACOB KATTERMANN:
A collection of upwards of thirty thousand names of German, Swiss, Dutch, French and other Immigrants to Pennsylvania from 1727 to 1776 by I. Daniel Rupp repr. Balto. 1994, mentions that Jacob was in Livingston Manor in the Winter of 1710 /Summer of 1711 and was above 21 years old at the time. Livingston Manor was in Ulster Co., NY, now Sullivan Co. This is incorrect, I have searched through the Subsistance List, the Simmendinger List and Rev. Kocherthal's journal. There is no mention of a Jacob Katterman.

"Genealogical Date Relating to the German Settlers of Pennsylvania", From Advertisements in German Newspapers publ. in Philadelphia and Germantown Newspapers 1743-1800. It has only "Jacob Kaderman, Tulpehocken, Berks Co." I imagine he was listing his location for friends or relatives who might be looking for him.
