Some of you readers may have noticed the similarity of the surnames SINGER and PENSINGER, which makes me wonder if Johann and Rosanna were possible cousins. Rosanna's ancestors may have shortened their surname, for instance. But, Rosanna was born in York County, Pennsylvania around 1784, not Lancaster County where her husband was born. Therefore, my theory could be all wrong.
Here is the list of this couple's eleven children and their birth years. They were all born in Franklin County, PA.
1784 Catherine
1785 Rosanna
1789 Jacob
1793 Mary
1796 John Henry (our ancestor)
1801 John
1803 Adam`
1805 Nancy
1808 Samuel
1809 Susannah
1812 Joseph
Rosanna died about 1828 in Montgomery Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania at age 60.
