Land Holders of Philadelphia County, 1734 Franconia - Yost Panacook
"As the years passed, however, even 200 acres was not enough to satisfy Bastian's idea of a proper estate to distribute among his children. Looking around for more land, he found the property adjoining his, which amounted to 196 acres, was available. This had also belonged to the elder Christler, and had been willed to his son Lenert, Jr., along with Bastian's first 50-acre tract in 1740. After the death of the younger Christler, the 196 acres had been sold to William Lohr . . . who in turn sold it in 1752 to Yost Pannekuck.10 Pannekuck probably never lived here, for he had owned 130 acres on the westerly side of the Allentown Road since 1727; about 1740, after the road was laid out, he opened a tavern in his home by the side of the road which he operated until 1760.11 He was one of the leading citizens of the vicinity, often serving as executor and guardian of minor children. After owning the 196-acre property for about seven years, he decided to dispose of it, and on June 11, 1759 executed an indenture conveying it to Bastian. As the deed itself was never recorded, the selling price is unknown."

Philip Pancake [Pankuch], son of Johan Peter Pancake (died April 20, 1772), who arrived from Rotterdam in the ship "Phoenix," Captain Reuben Honor, on November 22, 1752, and Rebecca, his wife; was a distinguished Revolutionary officer, residing in Dock Ward, Philadelphia. In 1765, he was a private in Captain Richard Peters' First Volunteer Corps of Philadelphia. In July, 1777, he is recorded as Captain of the Third Company, Second Battalion of Associators, Col. Sharpe Delaney. On August 2, 1777, he is recorded as Captain of the Second Company, Third Philadelphia Battalion, Col. Jonathan Bayard Smith; in 1779, he was Captain of the Third Company, Second Battalion, Col. Paul Cox. On April 15, 1780, he was commissioned Major in the Fourth Battalion, Philadelphia City Militia, Col. Paul Cox. He held this office during 1781-82, and, on April 21, 1783, was commissioned Major in the Sixth Battalion, Col. Joseph Dean, which office he held in 1784-85. His wife, Mary, died on August 10, 1783, and was buried in St. Michael's graveyard at Fifth and Cherry Streets. On January 5, 1784, he married his second wife, Catherine Schuz, in Zion Lutheran Church. He was a member of the Patriotic Association of July 17, 1778. He took a leading part in the great Federal Procession of 1788. He died in Philadelphia on January 8, 1814. His only son, George, died in Philadelphia on September 11, 1798.
MAJOR PHILIP PANCAKE, Captain 2d Battalion, 3d Class, Philadelphia Militia, August 2, 1777. Company mustered in, Wilmington, September 3, 1777. (Pa. Arch., 2d S., XIII. 161; XIV. 605, 661; XV. 675.) Major 3d Battalion Philadelphia Militia, Joseph Dean, Lieut. Colonel, 1782. (id. 2d S., XIV. 3.) The name is uncommon. Philip Pancake was taxed Westmoreland county, Pa., 1776-1780, and Moyamensing township, Philadelphia, 1774-1779. Captain Pancake was a grocer, Dock Ward, Philadelphia, appraised 1780 at $13,400. In 1791 Philip Pancake, grocer, lived at 160 South Fourth street, Philadelphia. He also held lands Northumberland county, 400 acres surveyed September 2, 1786, and 400 in Luzerne county, surveyed November, 1794.
"Yost Pannekuch and Yost Shenler, on August 18th, 1727, purchased a tract of 130 acres of land in the central part of Franconia township whereupon they erected a dwelling house a few yards northwest of the present Reuben Alderfer farm house, on the Allentown road, at Franconia Square. The nearest public road at that time was at what is now Line Lexington.
"Shenler died a few years later and Pannekuch became sole owner of the tract. After the Allentown road was laid out he opened a tavern about 1740, this probably being the first tavern on this road north of Springhouse.
"Pannekuch prospered and became one of the leading citizens of that time, often serving as executor in settling estates and as guardian for minor children. His wife was Agnes, daughter of Frederick Gottshall, who resided on the present Abram Loux farm, on the Cowpath road, near Leidy's church. Among their children were John and Hannah Pannekuch. The spelling of this name varied greatly, it being found that his own signature was spelled Pannekuch, Pankuk and Pancake.
"He conducted the tavern for many years and on May 24th, 1760, sold it to John Brubacher, of Manor township, Lancaster county, who on April 3rd, 1763, sold it to Jacob Grove (Groff), who conducted the tavern for six years."
"Henry Pastorius sold 130 acres to Yost Schenler and Yost Pannekuch on August 18th, 1727. This tract extended from the Allentown road to the Mennonite meetinghouse, and from the Harleysville pike to beyond the Clarence Freed residence. Schenler died and Pannekuch became the sole owner. The original homestead was located a few yards northwest of the present Isaiah D. Derstine residence. It was a spacious log house, in which Pennekuch opened a hotel or tavern, probably about 1740. He sold the farm and hotel to John Burkholder, on May 24th, 1760."

In the latest issue of the NYGB RECORD, there is an article entitled "Deaths from the Lady's Monitor, New York, 1801-1802." The LADY'S MONITOR was a short-lived magazine published in New York City, and an abstract of one of its death notices is the following:
[1801]
Saturday, December 19, p.143
At Philadelphia, Mrs. Catharine Pancake, in the 33rd year of her age, late consort of Col. Philip Pancake, of Philadelphia.
(NYGB RECORD, Vol. 134, Number 1, p. 62)
I am not a Pancake descendant, but I thought someone might like to see this piece of information which has never been published before.
