Brethern, Schwenkfelders and Other Plain People
Last Update:
The Brethren, The Schwenkfelders, and Other Plain People"
This new religion immediately attracted much attention and soon began to make converts. Since many of the early Brethren had been members of the Reformed Church, this older Protestant church was bitter and resorted to persecution to stamp out the new sect. Many of the Brethren fled to Krefeld on the lower Rhine; but hearing of the religious freedom of Penn's new colony, twenty families consistipg of one hundred and twenty people set sail for America. Arriving in Philadelphia in 1719, they settled in Gennantown. On Christmas Day, 1723, the first congregation was organized with seventeen members who had been baptized in Gennany and six converts baptized that day in the Wissahickon. At this first baptismal service in America they had to break the ice on the creek before the new members could be baptized.
After the ceremony they held their first love feast and communion at the home of Johannes Gumre, one of their members. The following year a second congregation was fonned at Coventry and a third at Conestoga. In 1729 their leader, Alexander Mack, came to America, bringing with him most of the other Brethren. As the few who were left in Europe returned to the Refonned Church, the whole church may be said to have been transferred to Pennsylvania.
Like the Quakers, the Brethren were a church without a creed. Later in the century, when Franklin suggested to Michael Wohlfahrt, an Ephrata Dunkard, "that it might be well to publish the articles of their belief and the rules of their discipline," Wohlfahrt replied:

From The Commode to the Privy to Indoors!
I have often held that, beyond a shadow a doubt, the indoor toilet is the greatest invention ever invented by man. (Followed closely, no doubt, by the invention of toilet paper! Can you really imagine life without toilet paper!) I am only personally familiar with the small, 3'x3' one-holer of my grandfather, but I do remember being in awe while inside a neighbor's 3-holer once. But, of course, one only heard about the grand and glorious, roomy, bricked, 5-holers, with a STOVE no less! And in the mountains, of course, two story privy's. This was so the folks would have a privy when the snow got too high and blocked the door on the lower level! I vividly remember running as fast as I could in the middle of the night so the "boogie" man wouldn't get me. In order for the toilet to come indoors, three things had to happen: 1) a means devised to bring water into the home, i.e., water supply and indoor plumbing 2) the device itself, and 3) a means of disposal.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know
About the Dunkers but Were Afraid to Ask
by R. A. Oldaker 1. Who are the Dunkers?
They are a German-American religious group in the Protestant tradition similar to the Amish and Mennonites. Most Dunkers live in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Virginia, Indiana, Illinois, Kansas, and California.
2. Why are they called Dunkers?
Dunker comes from the German word tunken, which means to dip, immerse, or baptize. It refers to one of their important practices: baptism, which is always done in a flowing river. A person becoming a Christian follows Jesus’ example of going into a river and being baptized. While kneeling in the water, the baptismal candidate is immersed face forward three times into the water in the name of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Dunkers call sometimes called Tunkers, Taufers, or Dompelaars, depending upon where they live. Dunkers are also called German Baptists, Old German Baptist Brethren, or simply as Brethren.
3. Why do Dunkers place so much emphasis on baptism?
