First Families of Orangeburgh District, South Carolina
JACOB GIETZENDANNER, the son of GEÖRG GIETZENDANNER and URSELA BRÄKER, was baptized on 3 Jul 1683 in Lichtensteig, SG, Switzerland[1,2] and died in Orangeburgh Township, South Carolina.
Although there is no explicit record of the elder Jacob in Orangeburg, Swiss records indicate that he was one of the immigrants. With Jacob, the known Giessendanner immigrant party totals eleven as indicated by their land grant and as mentioned by Hans Ulrich Giessendanner in his 1737 letter to Samuel Paravacini[4].
"When the Counselor of Lichtensteig found out that the goldsmith Hans Ulrich, his brother Georg, the hatter, and his brother Jakob, the tin man, were to emigrate to "Carolina, an island in the sea", he gave them the fatherly advice not to undertake such a costly, far and dangerous journey, at least not as long as some of the children were infants. When they persisted in their decision, the Counsel granted 36 and 30 Gulden, to Jakob 2 Doublonen "Viaticum", which had to be paid back in case of a return."
