[[Hess-446|Samuel Hess]], son of [[Hess-594|Hans Hess]] and [[Honegger-44|Barbel Honegger]], was born Bef. 25 Dec 1657 in Wald, Zurich, Switzerland. He married Barbel Reimann on 25 Feb 1683. He died 09 Apr 1744 in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.
'''Hess Family.''' Samuel Hess emigrated from Zurich, Switzerland, to Pequea Twp. in Lancaster Co., PA, in 1712. He was a descendant of Hans Jakob Hess, an *anabaptist minister, who, according to the *Martyrs Mirror, suffered death from persecution in 1639. Samuels grandson John married Esther Hershey. Four generations later, descendants of this couple became Brethren at various points in E. Pennsylvania. Abram Hess married Caroline Myer from the Conestoga congregation, and descendants of their thirteen children are Brethren, with several ordained ministers. There are other Brethren who trace their lineage to the martyr through different lines. Other Brethren families are descendants of George Balser Hess who immigrated with his parents to N. America in 1751. He moved to Franklin Co., OH, in 1798; some of his children moved on to northern Indiana in 1829. Five of his grandchildren married into Brethren families in the mid-19th century: Daniel Hess (m. Esther Miller), Moses (m. Mary Beckner), Mary (m. Jacob Weybright), Martha (m. Samuel Rensberger), and Israel (m. Rosa Cripe). The Hess family name is numerically strong among the Old German Baptist Brethren. AHHe/CTD (Condensed from first 7 Sources, see below).
