PVT. 5 CO. 2 BATT. PA MILITIA, REVOLUTIONARY WAR.

Research note: There is wide conflict in various online sources and websites regarding Heinrich Romig's year of death and the county of death, when he died in PA.

The following information and his burial location indicates that Heinrich Romig (born 1752) likely died in very late 1831 or very early 1832 in Lehigh County PA. I believe early to mid-January 1832 is the most likely scenario based on the probate records filed in Lehigh County PA in 1832. See source 3 & 4 below.

Heinrich "Henry" ROMIG was married twice. First he married about 1781 to Esther Deischer with whom he had several children including Johannes, Esther, and Daniel.

Heinrich "Henry" ROMIG (1752-___) was married a second time on 15 Aug 1829 in Macungie Twp., Lehigh Co., PA. to a Susanna HOLDER (b abt 1789) [her married name-maiden name unknown].
