She was a sister to Bishop Jacob Mast, who had emigrated with her uncle Johannes Mast in the ship Brotherhood, landed at Philadelphia, Pa, on Nov. 3, 1750. She was married some years afterward to a young man from the Fatherland by name of Michael Troyer, who with his brother Andreas crossed on the same vessel.
