MENNONITE FAMILY HISTORY
Volume XII, Number 4 October 1993
The Van Bebber/ Van Bibber Family
By David V. Stivison, Esq.*
Members of the Van Bebber family arrived at Philadelphia shortly after William Penn, having been recruited by him in Europe. Isaac Jacobs Van Bebber was on of the original immigrants from Krefeld, Germany (a few miles from the Holland border), who arrived in Germantown, then a separate settlement from Philadelphia, on November 8, 1684.
Isaac's sister, Lisbet Isaacs Van Bebber, and her husband, Herman Isaacs OpdenGraeff, were among the first thirteen Krefeld families arriving in 1683. Their father Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber and brother Matthias Isaacs Van Bebber arrived in 1687, and another brother Henry Van Bebber arrived in 1720 or 1721. Here is what is known of them and their descendants.
Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber, patriarch of the family, was a baker of Krefeld, Germany, a Dutch Mennonite who joined his sons in Germantown in 1687.
"On the 11th of June, 1683, Penn conveyed to Govert Remke, Lenart Arets, and Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber, a baker, all of Crefeld, one thousand acres of land each, and they, together with Telner, Streypers, and Sipman, constituted the original Crefeld purchasers. It is evident that their purpose was colonization, not speculations. Of the six original purchasers Jacob Telner and Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber are known to have been members of the Mennonite Church."
"A charter of incorporation [for Germantown], dated May 31, 1691, was issued to Francis Daniel Pastorius, bailiff; Jacob Telner, Dirck op den Graeff, and Thones Kunders, burgesses; Abraham op den Graeff, Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber, Johannes Kassel, Heifert Papen, Hermann Bon, and Dirck Van Kolk, committeemen, with power to hold a court and a market, to admit citizens, to impose fines, and to make ordinances."
Van Bebber was "pro Keith" but reverted to Mennonites and moved to "High Street," Philadelphia, before 1698. He was the first Recorder of Germantown (1691) and was a burgess there in 1692. He owned the lower half of Lot No. 9 on the west side of Main Street, Germantown, in 1689. He was listed as a church member May 23, 1708. He died in Philadelphia before 1711.
