Some years after his arrival in Pennsylvania, he made a trip back to Crefeld, andreturned to Pennsylvania, thus crossing the ocean three times. A paper dated 1706, containing his signature, is in possession of Hon. Samuel W. Pennypacker, who is a descendant, through Matthias Tyson's daughter Margaret, who married Jacob Pannebecker. Hendrick Sellen left four children, Jacob, a "shopkeeper" of Worcester township, who died without issue in 1759, leaving a legacy to the poor of the Mennonite congregation at "Perkyomie & Skepack;" John; Barbara, the wife of Matthias Tyson, and Elizabeth, the wife of Arnold Van Fossen.

    Notes:

    Hendrick Pannebecker was born in the little rural village of Flomborn, on the Rhine, not far from city of Worms, March 21, 1674. He was, however, of Dutch lineage, his immediate ancestors having removed from Holland to the locality of his birth. A large proportion of the inhabitants of the present village of Flomborn, comprising five hundred souls, bear the name of Pannebecker. The name Pannebakker is of Holland origin, meaning in the Dutch language a maker of tiles.

    Hendrick Pannebecker married, at Germantown, 1699, Eve, daughter of Hans Peter and Barbara Umstat, granddaughter of Nicholas Umstat, who died at Crefeld, on the Rhine, October 4, 1682. The son, Hans Peter Umstat, with his wife Barbara, and their three children, Johannes, Eve and Margaret, came to Pennsylvania in the "Francis and Dorothy" and located in Germantown, where the wife Barbara died August 12, 1702. Johannes Umstat, son, joined his brotherin-law, Hendrick Pannebecker, on the Skippack, 1702, and has left numerous descendants, the name being later modified into Umstead. The Umstats brought with them from Crefeld a German Bible published at Heidelberg, 1568, which has been in the family since 1652. Eve (Umstat) Pannebecker died some years prior to the date of death of her husband.

    Hendrick Pannebecker died April 4, 1754, and his large land estate was divided among his children. The old homestead at Pennypacker's Mills, Washington's headquarters during the Revolution from September 26, to October 8, 1777, is now owned and occupied by his great-great-great-grandson, .
