In May, 1826, they with their large family moved to Canada and settled in Waterloo County, near the village of Bridgeport, on the farm now possessed by John Stroh. Here they resided for nearly one year when they purchased the farm now possessed by his grandson Isaac Reist, near Kossuth, Ontario, where he died December 2nd, 1843. To them were born twelve children, all of whom settled in this county save Abraham who remained in Penn Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where his descendants still reside."
