Christoph married Rosina Roller on 11 Aug 1784 in Lovettsville, Loudoun Co, Virginia.

Notes:

I have settled on "Rosina" as her given name because baptismal records of the New Jerusalem Church, York County, Pennsylvania show this spelling in 1785 when their first child, George was born. Note that "Rosannah" is used on her gravestone. The language of origin of 'Rosina' is Germanic and Latin but Rosannah is not a variant form of the name. Rosina has not been used as a girl's given name since 1934 in the U.S.

The name Jakob [it can be Jacob in German also] comes from the Biblical story of his birth where he came out holding the heel of his twin brother Esau.
