"Johannes (HJ). Perhaps he was the John Schaffer of Queensbury who was a Palatine Volunteer to Canada in 1711 (HJ). A Johannes Schaffer sp. Henrich Meyer in 1711 (West Camp Luth. Chbk.). Johannes Schäffer and his wife Anna Maria were recorded next to the Hanss Henrich and Johannes Zöller families at Neu-Ansberg ca. 1716/17 (Simmendinger Register). Pastor Berkenmeyer mentioned Johannes Schäffer often in Albany Protocol. In 1736 on p. 190 he wrote:

"After the service we returned to the home of Hannes Scheffer. The first thing he said was to ask me why I had bpt. the child b. out of wedlock, without having the mother first do pennance in the church. It was he who had said to Van Diren that he would not come again if he were willing to bpt. the child. When I remonstrated in a kindly way, I received the answer that I had put blame on the Luth. congregation and that if the Amsterdam Consistory did not adhere closer to the Luth. doctrine, then he would have nothing to do with it. There was no way of calming him down until his anger had spent itself. Then he asked me to have dinner with him, but I refused and said I should be happy to do so tomorrow after the first service. (See also pp. 98, 100, 161, 197, and 218 for more references to Johannes Schäffer in the Protocol).

"Johannes Scheffer signed as a Justice on the call from the Luth. Church at Schoharie to Rev. Dr. Gerdes in London 25 Aug 1741 (Luth. Church in N.Y. and N.J., p. 171). His family appears on.Pastor Sommer's Family List ca. 1744 (Schoharie Luth. Chbk.) Johannis Sheefer was a freeholder at Schoharie in 1763 (Albany Co. Freeholders). Johannes md. Anna Maria Zoller (HJ); she d. 2 15 Jul 1768 (Schoharie Luth. Chbk.). Johannes d. 15 May 1777, aged 87 (?) yrs. (Schoharie 2 Luth. Chbk.).
