  Father	Jacob Fretz,   b. Abt 1725
  Mother	Margarita Ernstfrets,   b. Abt 1725
  Marriage	Abt 1745	Skoharie, New York
  	"Jacob may have been at Skoharie; one record of the Skoharie Lutheran Church reads that "Margaret Fretz. daughter of Ernest" married Jacob Frat about 1745. However Munsell's Collection of the history of Albany states Jacob Frets and Margareta Ernfrets had child Johannes baptized Feb. 20, 1757 in Albany Dutch Church. On the other hand the baptism of his son Nicholaus on Oct. 5, 1761 in Albany was recorded in Schoharie Lutheran Record. (P. 47) naming the same sponsors. There may be another interpretation of the Ernsfrets or it may be misreading of her fathers name. At any rate, if Jacob and Margaret were cousins it would not be strange in the limited choice of partners of his own nationality and Lutheran faith." - page 2 of The Frat House Published 1957 by SETH W.
