At the baptism of his child Anna Catharina in 1747, Henry MOHLER was listed as a sheep herder. That likely accounts for why the three baptisms located were at different locations. Hassloch is east of Horbach. Note Elmstein which is on the west side of the Hassloch map and east side of the Horbach map for comparion.
Böbingen is just a few miles south of Hassloch.
Baptisms for the other three children may be found in the future at some church in the area for which the records have not yet been examined.
Henry MOHLER arrived at Philadelphia on 7 October 1749 on the Ship Leslie.34
