Anna Maria Dries1

b. circa 1722, d. 1 July 1794
Family
ChartsAncestry of David Kipp Melat
     Anna Maria Dries was born circa 1722 in Germany.2 She married John Peter Baum, son of Johan Theobald Baum, in November 1745.2 She died on 1 July 1794 in Berks County.2
     Anna Maria Dries emigrated in 1733 from Germany. Anna Maria and probably several family members sailed from Rotterdam on the Mary with Captain James Benn. The ship landed at Philadelphia on 29 Sep 1733. Listed among the passengers were Andreas Dries, Cornelius Dries, Peter Dries, and John Adam Dries, all over the age of 14 years. Listed with the women is Anna Maria Dries, and among the girls Maria Barbara Dries, age 13; Barbara Elizabeth Dries, age 24; and Anna Maria Dries, age 11. Undoubtedly, at least some of those named Dries on the Ship Mary were family of Anna Maria Dries, age 11, however, no relationship among them has been established. It has been speculated that the Anna Maria Dries listed among the women was the mother of the Dries girls and at least some of the Dries men. It has not been determined if any of the Dries men were the father of the family.3
     Anna Maria Dries was was probably the Anna Maria Dressin jun. listed in a communicant register along with Cornelius Driess and Anna Maria Dressin on 14 October 1733. The record was kept by Rev. John Casper Stoever, a Lutheran minister, of St. Michael's and Zion Lutheran church of Philadelphia.4
