a German Reformed minister, was born in Philadelphia in 1797. He studied theology under the Reverend Samuel Helffenstein, D.D.; and was licensed by the Synod of the German Reformed Church which convened in New Holland, Pennsylvania, in 1816. He immediately entered upon his duties as minister of the Sunbury congregation. Here he labored twelve years, and then went to Lancaster city in 1832, and became pastor of the Reformed Church in that place. In this field he labored seven years and then resigned. From this time forward he was without any pastoral charge. He died in 1852. See Harbaugh, Fathers of the Germ. Ref. Church, 4:472.
