Hello Ann ... Analisa and Leonard Rieth are our ancestors as well, and
like you, we've heard and read stories about Analisa being at least
part Native American and have been trying to find definitive proof of
this. I'll begin by saying that although I've heard the last name
"Cochran" and one other on rare occasions, there is no source that I've
found for these surnames, and in most records, her birth family is not
mentioned. The lack of any last name is one indication that she was of
Native American descent. We've also managed to have a DNA test done
from a direct female descendant which seems to indicate that her mother
wasn't Native American or perhaps only so on the paternal line, as
Analisa might have been. We're also tracking down the records and
letters of Reverend Johann Frederick Haeger who most likely married
them, either in the camps on the Hudson or in Schoharie, to see if
there is any mention of an intermarriage between the Palatines and the
natives in Schoharie around 1712. We would be most interested to hear
what you've found and are happy to share whatever we have found or will
find in the future. Regards, Deborah Varley
