       and came from Northampton Co., Pa.
       Pittsburgh, from which place he came to what
       is now Wayne Twp., in 1796-7. He brought
       his wife and probably three children with
       him. He first built a log cabin on the bottom
       Beaver river, and afterwards came up the
       hill to a spot near where Mr. McConahy's house now stands, where he built a 2nd house.
Mr. Book died in August, 1844, aged seventy-nine years, and his wife died in January
        1845, aged seventy-seven.  Their daughter, Catherine, born April 1, 1798 is yet living. She

The Butler County, PA Book (Buchs) History notes state Johann George had 3 wives: 1st wife ____ Chatter; 2nd wife ____ Mesinger, and 3rd Christiana Metzger. (We are not sure of the order of wives 1 and 2.) and Johann George Book had 24 children.

Known children born to Georg by the first two marriages:

1st: Jacob Book b. 1743 Germany, d 1824 Ancaster Wentworth Ontario Canada, was a son of the FIRST WIFE, and was a half brother to Conrad 1747 and John 1754. FAG Memorial 63981845

2nd: Conrad b. 1747 Germany, d. 13 Aug 1804 Grimsby Township, Ontario Canada, FAG Memorial 118965582; and John b. Jun 1754 Germany, d. 9 Jul 1827 Wentworth Ontario Canada, FAG Memorial 63981528, were full brothers and sons of the SECOND WIFE. They were half brothers to Jacob b. 1743.

Georg's 3rd wife was Christina Metzger, whom he married in Sussex Co., NJ. She was born in 1740 and lived to be 97 years old (d. ca 1837). They are the parents of Magdalena Buchs Dreisbach, wife of Jacob Dreisbach / Triesbach and Sophia Frederick Buchs, wife of Martin Dreisbach and other daughters. George Book, b. 1758 Sussex NJ, d. 1823 Worth Twp., Butler County, PA was the only known son of 3rd wife, Christiana Metzger. George was a HALF BROTHER to all 3 Canadian Book Boys, Jacob 1743, Conrad 1747 and John 1754.
Thanks to contributor Paula Good, desc of George 1758.

Notes (records seem to indicate) :

Johannes Buch - Original spelling was changed from ' Buch . He came from
Germany in the year 1754 - changed his name due to the circumstances of
the War during that time era and did not want to be detected as being German
because he was afraid he could be killed as a result of that fact. Wife - no
known records of her. Records indiacte they had 5 sons - no further record
except for 3rd son - Peter.

Further Records Indicate another wife - Margaret Buchs

NOTE : for Johannes George Buchs

Wuerrtemburg is near Heidelberg, and Stuttgart, Germany.  They were members
of the Luthern Society. Rev. John Dreibach states that John and Christianna were
"poor as to worldly estates, yet were much respected by all who knew them best,
because of their integrity, friendly disposition, and piety. Grandfather lived 85 and
grandmother 97 years, & their last end was peace. My grandfather, George Books
(as this name became thus spelled in english), had by former marriages several
children, among the rest, Jacob, Conrad, and John, half brothers of my mother;
among these have resided for many years in Upper Canada. And besides there
was one full brother to my mother, George, Junior, who resided in Butler County,
Pa., on slipperyrock, 15 miles north of Harmony. Anna Books was married to
Michael Schock, Christina to William Emory, and Barbara to Christian Wolf.
Schock's wife died in Youngstown, Union County, Pa.  Wolf and his wife died in
Seneca County N.Y.  Emory and his wife lived near uncle George Books.  All
these have left children and some are settled in different directions.
" ( from " A short Family History and Genealogical Statement, Martin Dreisbach,
Senior, and his Decendants ", He and Christianna are buried in the Dreisbach
Cemetery, Union County, Pa. (then Northcumberland County) Johannes was
married 3 times and had numerous children.
