A history of the German Baptist brethren in Europe and America . and flowing German. Of his life in German)- little is known. He wasmarried early in the i8th century and his wife, MariaChristina, gave birth on Sept. 26, 1721, to their onlychild, Christopher the Second, who later became abishop or elder in the German Baptist Brethren churchat Germantown. In the autumn of 1724 the Sower family, father, mother and son, arrived at Germantown to begin anew home in a new land. At Germantown Sower metPeter Becker and others with whom he was acquaintedin Germany. He was, however, anxious to establish ahome in a prospectively fertile and populous sectionof country, and, in the spring of 1726, he removed toI^ancaster County, Pennsylvania, and settled at Muel-bach, attracted there in part, perhaps, by Conrad Beis-sel, whom he had met in Germany. Here he pur-chased fifty (50) acres of land in Leacock Townshipand ostensibly began to farm.

The Tivo Christopher Sozvers. 349 Just what influence was exerted upon Sower by Beis-sel is not definitely known. There is some evidence to show that he became amember of the Brethren church, although he is usuallycalled a Separatist. Many writers in the Messe?iger, Almanacs, and other publications of the Brethrenassert boldly and unqualifiedly that he was a memberof the church. They are all mistaken, and have beenled to this statement, no doubt, by confusing fatherand son, or through ignorance of the fact that therewere three Sowers named Christopher, who were prom-inently identified with the activities of the earlychurch. The documentary reasons for believing that theelder Sower was a Dunker are the following: 1. Kapp says, He emigrated with a number ofSchwarzenau Dunkers, his companions in opinion. 2, Michael Eckerlin, who came to Pennsylvaniawith his mother and
