Hans Heinrich Yeakel became a large landowner
in the Hosensack Valley, in Lower Milford Township,
now Lehigh County, Pa. He purchased what
was then known as the Hamilton tract, containing
about 500 acres of excellent farm land, which at his
death he divided among his sons. His descendants
became quite numerous, and much of his property is
still owned by them. He had gone with his brother-in-law,
Gregorius Schultz, to the Jordan in Lehigh
County, but the location being too much exposed, on
account of Indian depredations, he returned in a short
time afterwards and settled permanently in the Hosen-sack.
