To them was born a large family, three sons and six daughters. One of these sons, named Henry Kolb, was married, May 10th, 1744, to Elizabeth Cassel. To them was born quite a family but names of all the children could not be given. We know the names of several, namely: Jacob, Henry, Yelles, Martin, Isaac, and Peter. Of the named sons, Martin (Have the information from old Mrs. Ziegler whose aunt was married to Jacob Kolb) was married to a Miss Schwartz and resided some twenty miles north of Skippack, Pennsylvania, where he died a young man, leaving a wife and family of three children, namely: Jacob and two sisters who were married and remained in Pennsylvania where their descendants are still to be found."
