Christina Straub in "Straubs, Smiths and Extended Family" on rootsweb.com in 2007 states "The Reformed church records of Diedendorf and Rauweiler show that Johann Ulrich Wirth was baptized in 1714, married Maria Schmit in 1740, and then had five children with her while still in Europe. In 1748, this family took the same bold step that Ulrichs sister had taken about four years earlier, setting off down the Rhine to begin the perilous journey to the New World. At Rotterdam, the family boarded a ship called the Two Brothers, which took them first to Portsmouth, England, and then out onto the open sea. The terrible hardships attending these voyages are well-documented elsewhere; Ulrich and Maria entered upon this ordeal with their five children between the ages of 1 and 7. The ship arrived at Philadelphia on 15 September 1748.
"The family's whereabouts during their first four years in America are unknown, but by 1752 they had settled in what would soon officially become Whitehall Township, Northampton County. The creation of this new township in the back parts of Northampton County was requested in a petition signed by Ulrich Wirth, Lorenz Guth (another direct ancestor of mine), and a few of their neighbors. More precisely, Ulrichs property was in the area we now call Schnecksville in Lehigh County, Pennsylvania. (Lehigh County was created from the western part of Northampton County in 1812.) The oldest surviving property map of this area shows that Ulrich and his two oldest sons owned a vast amount of land in the area that is now occupied by the Lehigh/Carbon Community College and parts of the Trexler/Lehigh County Game Preserve. Anyone who has experienced the natural beauty of the game preserve and state game lands near Schnecksville can well imagine what a bounteous, untamed idyll of forest and stream was enjoyed by Ulrichs children during their youth. The church they attended at this time was Schlossers Reformed church, which later became known as Unionville, and still later as Neffs.
"By the mid-1770s, Ulrichs oldest children had already married and moved out to establish their own families when the desire for independence from Great Britain took a firm hold in Northampton County. The seven oldest sons of Ulrich and Maria all appear on rosters of various militia and state line units during the Revolutionary War. At least four of them are documented to have performed active duty, and one paid the ultimate price for our liberty. (In all likelihood, all seven of the oldest boys served active duty during the war, but the full extent of their contribution can no longer be ascertained, due to the disappearance of most active duty rosters over the years.)
"No information on the death or burial of Ulrich or Maria has been found, but 1790 census records indicate that Ulrich may have migrated to south-central Pennsylvania with his son Jacob [ulrich-wirth.ged]
"Came with his wife and first five (i.e. German-born) children from Lixheim to America on the ship 'Two Brothers' in 1748. In addition to the passenger list, this is also confirmed by a mention of Ulrich's emigration in the inventory of Daniel Stutzmann, the husband of Ulrich's sister Barbara.
"Appears on the 1762 tax list of Whitehall Township as 'Ulrich Wuerth.' Also rendered as "Ullerich."
"Baptism is listed in Diedendorf Reformed KB.
"Christening Sponsors: Johannes Scheuerer (matenal grandfather) from Weyer; Johannes Teusch, shoemaker; Anna Elisabetha, daughter of Jacob Hegle, both of Wolffskirchen.
"The old Lehigh County property map lists Ulrich's property in North Whitehall Township lying between 'Levan's Junction (now Trexler packing house) and Jordan Creek, with most of the land now a part of the Trexler orchards - perhaps a small part also withing the Trexler-Lehigh County game perserve.'
"From 'Miscellaneous Family Histories and Burial Records,' by Raymond Hollenbach, found at the Lehigh County Historical Society. This property was closest to Unionville, but that church was not founded until 1765. It is therefore possible that they first belonged to Heidelberg (if any church at all), but the early records of that church are missing. All sons in this family appear on the rosters of Northampton County militia companies; several were on active duty during the Revolutionaly War. From 'Eighteenth Century Emigrants from the Northern Alsace to America,' by Annette Kunselman Burgert.
"Many of the children in the Wirth/Wertz/Werts/Wirt/Wert in the early years were baptised at the Schlosser's Reformed Church in North Whitehall Township, also know as Union Church in Unionville, and later known as Neff's Union Church in Neffs.
"Historical Data From Randy Wert:
"Name also rendered as 'Ullerich' and 'Hans Ulrich.'
"Date of birth is from the Diedendorf Reformed KB, according to Dr. Gerhard Hein. However, Annette Kunselman Burgert lists this date as the christening date, from the same source.
"Sponsors at his baptism: Johannes Scheurer (maternal grandfather) from Weyer; Johannes Teusch, shoemaker; Anna Elisabetha, daughter of Jacob Hegle, both of Wolffskirchen.
"Occupation was 'linenweaver.'
"An 'Ulrich Wirt' appears as a sponsor at a baptism recorded in the register of the Lutheran church at Hirschland in 1735 (as reported by Dr. Gerhard Hein). The entry also indicates that his brother-in-law was one Hans Henrich Füller. It is not known whether the Ulrich in this record is one of ours.
"The record of his marriage (10 February 1740) in the Reformed church register of Rauweiler, as reported by Dr. Gerhard Hein, lists him as a resident of Rauweiler.
"Came with his wife and first five (i.e., German-born) children from Lixheim to America on the ship 'Two Brothers' in 1748. In addition to the passenger list, this is also confirmed by a mention of Ulrich's emigration in the inventory of Daniel Stutzmann, the husband of Ulrich's sister Barbara, where he is named 'Hans Ulrich Wirth' and is described as married.
"Appears on the 1762 tax list of Whitehall Township as 'Ulrich Wuerth.'
"The Northampton County Register of Wills contains no documents pertaining to his death whatsoever. There is an Ulrich Wirth listed in the letters of administration for his son Samuel. If this Ulrich is Samuel's father, it indicates that he lived at least into 1776. If it is not Samuel's father, it lends credence to the assertion by some that this Ulrich had a son named Ulrich."
Christina Straub also states that Johann Ulrich Wirth is son of Johann Ulrich Wirt, b. 1675, and his wife Catharina Scheuerer.
