Hubert Cassel came to Pennsylvania from Palatinate (Pfalz) province in Germany west of the Rhine River in the second immigration of Cassels to America. He arrived in Germantown PA about 1720 and settled in Skippack Township, Montgomery County. He was naturalized October 16, 1729. His brothers Yelles and Johannes also immigrated to America. Hubert was a man of delicate health, who never possessed much of this worlds goods. His will, in part, read "To my son Abraham I give my two looms with my whole weaving tacle." He was a Mennonite weaver, farmer and minister. Parents: Abraham Heinrich Cassel and Mary Unknown.

Spouse: Syltge Op Den Graeff. Syltge Op Den Graeff and Hupert Cassel were married in 1721. Sytge was the young widow of John Krey.

Name and other info from book, Cassel Family in America, page 39-45 (#21). Came to Pennsylvania about 1715-1720 from Kriesheim in the Palatinate, Pfalz, a Province of Germany west of the Rhine. This area was divided between Bavaria and Hesse-Hamburg at the time the book was written. After arriving in America, he stopped at Germantown, and hired out to different individuals, both as a husbandman and weaver. He became acquainted with a Dutch girl whose Christian name was Syche, whom he married as soon as possible. His brothers Yelles and Johannes, writing to him from Germany, deeply opposed the marriage, being for some reason prejudiced against Dutch women. Soon after, Yelles and Johannes both emigrated to Pennsylvania on the ship Friendship on 16 October 1727, after a passage of four months from Rotterdam. Johannes settled westward in the area of Columbia, Lancaster Co., PA. Yelles Cassel setled with his brother Hupert and his wife, who received him with such kindness he apologized for his earlier opposition to their marriage. Hupert divided his 150 acres of land with his brother, and assisted him to build a house.
Hupert bought his land from Dirk Renberg on 24 July 1725. He was a weaver by trade, and owned at least two looms, which he left to his third son Abraham. From his will written 7 October 1745 and other documents it seems that Hupert was a frail man, and never accumulated much personal wealth. He signed his will Huppert Kassel.
Book, Ruth Genealogy by Kriebel, pg. 431 says: A grandson of [Yelles Kassel] was Hubert Cassel who left Kriegsheim (or Kreisheim), the Palatinate, Germany, for America about 1715 or 1720. He married Sydge op den Graeff, widow of John Krey. They occupied 150 acres in Skippack Twp. He d. 1745.
http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/_glc_/5185/5185_3.html says: Most of these Crefeld emigrants were weavers; they made "very fine German Linen, such as no Person of Quality need be ashamed to wear," and by strict economy and frugality succeeded in making a living, and laying by in the course of years a fair competency for that day.
