Lightkep

Of UpperDublin Montgomery Co. Pa

 

The Lightkeps were probably decended from Gotfried and Solomen Leibgeb who came from town called Krefield on the Rhein in Germany. Some name variations are Lightcap Leightcap and Leibgepy. As of yet I have been unable to find

The parents of Abraham Lightkep so any help would be appreciated.
