Hans Paulus Moser¹

• Research Note: Please refer to the article by Charles Kerchner on German naming customs at
  http://www.kerchner.com/germname.htm. He gives a detailed explanation of the saint's names or spiritual names, which preceded Germans' secular or call names (Rufnamen). In one family, all the males commonly had the same saint's name, commonly Johan or Hans, or George, and were known by their middle names. For girls, common saint's names were Maria and Anna.
• Name-Call: Hans Paulus Moser was generally known by the name of Paul Moser according to the German custom. His saint's name of Hans was shared with his brothers.
• Research Note*: Anita Mott writes the following in her "Mosser/Musser Family" concerning Hans Paulus Mosser:
  
  "Hans Paulus Mosser is perhaps even more of an enigma than either Hans Martin Mosser or Hans Adam Mosser, for there appear to have been three immigrants by that name. [note: Martin and Adam are two other immigrants she traces in her book.] Many believe that the one who came on the Adventure, which saled from Rotterdam under Master Robert Carson, arriving in Philadelphia on 23 Sep 1732 to be the brother of Martin and Adam. For this reason, he is included in this work. Hans Paul is listed as 'under sixteen' in Pennsylvania Archives, 3rd Series, Vol. 17 passenger lists, but as age twenty-four in the same list as published by a man named Knittle. Strassburger-Hinke do not list his age. Since he signed the ship's manifesto, it would appear that he was at least sixteen. He appears in New Hanover Church records (Montgomery County, Pennsylvania) as having a wife named Elisabeth, who died 8 Apr 1749. She was described at her funeral, conducted by Rev. Henry Muhlenberg at the New Hanover Church as being a 'young' woman."¹
