    • RESEARCH_NOTES:
      1. The booklet on the Frederick family by Mrs. Alida Reed of Gloversville, NY, 1957 (she died Dec 1966) with copies at the Montgomery Co., NY, Archives and a microfilmed copy on FHL film 1312457, item 4). Alida descends through Hans Jacob Frederick and Margaret Young: "Philip, b. 7 Mar, 1772, d. 30 May 1857, age 85; md. Gertrude Miller. Children:
      Jacob, b. 8 Mar 1794. Sp. Jacob Frederick and Margaret Young (grandparents).
      Hannah, b. 25 Dec 1797.
      Eva, b. 29 Apr 1802.
      Both Philip and his wife Gertrude (Gitty) are buried in Hillebrandt Cemetery."

      3. The book "Compendium of Mohawk Valley Families," by Maryly Penrose, p. 282: "Jacob, b. 8 Mar 1794 to Philip and Gertraut (?) Friderich. LTC, Sa." [I assume this is Lutheran Trinity Church, but I am unsure was "Sa" stands for.]
