     Published material in a work in the public domain appeared in 1879 It read: Balthasar Hoffman, son of Christopher Hoffman, came to Pennsylvania in 1734, with his three children:
Anna.
Rosina.
Christopher, born in 1728.
Among the Schwenkfelders who arrived in Pennsylvania
in the year 1734, Balthasar Hoffman,(*) who settled
in Lower Salford Township, was one of the most eminent.
He was born in Harpersdorf, Principality of Liegnitz,

(*)This sketch of the life of the Rev. Balthasar Hoffman was written by his son Christopher in German in 1777, and translated by Abraham H. Cassel for the forthcoming work of M. Auge, Esq., "The Prominent Men of Montgomery County, Pa." The compiler of this work cheerfully acknowledges the courtesy of Mr. Auge in allowing him to make use of this memoir.

in Silesia, Austria. By his own testimony he was born of "worthy poor and lowly parents," and was first reared to the trade of a weaver, occasionally working
as a day laborer in the summer. He early embraced the religious principles of Caspar Schwenkfeld. He was tall in stature, lean in person, and "after his
fiftieth year wore an entire white head." From his earliest youth he seems to have been very industrious
and desirous of acquiring truth. By assiduous labor he soon gained a knowledge of Latin, Greek, and
Hebrew, and by help of good books set himself to study the Sacred Scriptures, for which his knowledge of the 'languages gave him great facilities. He was very diligent in acquainting himself with Christian teachings around him, and especially of those promulgated
by Caspar Schwenkfeld.
In 1719 the Reformation had made great progress in Silesia, and the Catholic Church in 1721 sent a mission
to convert the people back to the old faith, at first laboring with them mildly, but soon after committing great acts of violence. The persecuted people
in 1721, therefore, resolved to send an embassy to the Emperor, to implore toleration. Of this body Balthasar
was one. During this effort, which lasted five years, Hoffman delivered no less than seventeen memorials
to the royal ruler. At last, however, in 1726, the mission turned the heart of the sovereign still more against the reformed people, so that Balthasar
dared not show himself by day, but had to return by night, taking with him to Ober Lausitz his wife and two daughters. Even there he was not safe, but fled again with his gray-haired father from Vienna by way
of Prague to Lausitz, and obtained the protection of Count Zinzendorf. Here he resided eight years, during which time a son was born to him. As tolerance was not even here assured he, with many others, concluded to emigrate to Pennsylvania, where William Penn had promised religious freedom to all. This resolution was formed in 1734, and on September 22
of the same year, with his wife and family, "under the guidance of the good Lord they arrived at Philadelphia,
and offered praise to God for his graciousness to them." He was especially grateful that no evil had
befallen them on the way, and further that kind friends in Holland had sent himself over free and without cost to him. He did not remain in the city,
but removed to the country, "where, too, the grace of God provided for him and his." During all this time
he continued a diligent Bible reader and Christian teacher to those around him. Here he freely worshipped God according to the dictates of conscience.
Upon the death of the Rev. George Weiss, the first minister of the Schwenkfelders in America, in 1740,
Hoffman was chosen to officiate in his stead. Not being constitutionally strong in body, he several times withdrew, especially in 1749, when he became afflicted on his breast and debilitated in his power of speech and of singing. Still, demands were made upon him,
particularly for outdoor services, as catechizing the children; but by the help of God he labored till the
weight of years made it impossible. Nor did he ever tire in his many duties. His Sabbath forenoons, afternoons, or evenings, were employed in writing, reading, and singing. He left many letters and writings on Holy Scripture and Christian teachings, prompted by
the questions of others as well as of his own conception, thus at once rendering service to his brethren in
time to come. He also left hymns. Of these writings we have a catalogue. "To him idleness and the want of truth were of great moment, seeing how God's gift of freedom was misapplied."
The closing years of Balthasar Hoffman's life were spent in a small room, spinning; yet daily would he
read, write, sing, and pray. And as he had long been blessed with bodily health, so God protected him against much and severe sickness in his last days.
Gradually, however, his sanctified spirit was loosened from its earthly tabernacle, and nature sank year by
year, till December 21, 1774, when he was attacked with vertigo and increasing debility, and on July 11,
1775, in his 89th year, he passed peacefully away. His wife, Ursula, died May 15, 1767, aged 80 years, and
both lie buried in the Schwenkfelder burying-ground belonging to the congregation in Lower Salford. Balthasar Hoffman and wife left three children, Anna, Rosina, and Christopher, who succeeded his father as minister of the society; his children were all born in Europe. All three were married, but the son left no issue. There are descendants of the daughters, however, to the fifth and sixth generations.
He remained an acceptable minister of the Schwenkfelders from the death of Weiss in 1740 until the time of his death. He resided on a tract of land by
the east side of Skippack Creek, two miles west of Franconia village, now owned by Henry Derstine.
He was a man of eminent wisdom and piety, and left behind him a catalogue of his writings, embracing fifty-eight tracts, all on theology and practical religion, besides eighty-three letters on various kindred topics.
Christopher Hoffman, the father of Balthasar, died in Saxony, under the protection of Count Zinzendorf; he,
together with his son Balthasar and Balthasar Hoffrichter, constituted the embassy to the court of Charles
VI, at Vienna.^25,26
