More About DNA-11 Blue Panthers of Bavaria: Sex: Male Notes for DNA-11 Blue Panthers of Bavaria: Great Bavarian State Emblem The Great Bavarian State Emblem has a long historyand tradition. It was established by law in 5 June 1950. The symbols shown by the emblem are deeply rooted in the Bavarian history. The heraldic elements of the “Great Bavarian State Emblem” each have a particular meaning: The Golden Lion: In the black quarter is the golden lion in a black field. It was originally the symbol of the count Palatine of the Rhine. Following the investiture of Ludwig, Duke of Bavaria had been with the Palatinate in 1214, it served as the common symbol of the old Bavarian and Palatine House of Wittelsbach for centuries. Today, the golden Palatinate lion edged in red and rampant in the top left square stands for the Upper Palatinate administrative district. The "Franconian Rake": The second quarter is halved by red and white (silver) areas, with three white triangles pointing upwards. This "rake" appeared around 1350 as the coat of arms of some towns of the Bishopric of Würzburg and has also been depicted in the seals of the prince-bishops since 1410. Today, the Franconian rake stands for the administrative districts of Upper Franconia, Middle Franconia and Lower Franconia. The Blue Panther: The third quarter, bottom left, shows a blue panther rampant, edged in gold on a white (silver) background. Originally it was depicted in the coat of arms of the Palatines of Ortenburg based in Lower Bavaria. Later it was adopted by the House of Wittelsbach. Today, the blue panther represents the old Bavarian administrative districts of Lower Bavaria and Upper Bavaria. The Three Black Lions: The fourth quarter depicts three black lions couchant, edged in red one above the other, on a gold background. Their heads are turned towards the observer. They are taken from the old coat of arms of the Hohenstaufen dynasty, former dukes of Swabia. In the Bavarian state coat of arms, these three lions represent the administrative district of Swabia. The White and Blue Central Shield: The central shield features white (silver) and blue rhombuses slanting to the right. Formerly the coat of arms of the Counts of Bogen, it was adopted as the coat of arms of the House of Wittelsbach in 1242. The white and blue rhombuses are regarded as a symbol of Bavaria and symbol Bavaria as a whole. With the people’s crown they are also officially used as the "small Bavarian state coat of arms". The People's Crown (..Volkskrone"): On the four-squared shield with the central shield is the people’s crown („Volkskrone“). It consists of a golden rim decorated with stones and beset with five ornamental leaves. The people's crown, which first appeared in the coat of arms of 1923, symbolizes the sovereignty of the people after the abolition of the royal crown. The Lions Holding a Shield: The heraldic lions holding a shield continue a tradition from the 14th Century.

Some of them spelled their surname Babp or BAP or BAAB or BOBP or BABBE, and a few of the descendants still use some of these spellings, but in general they have converted to the same spelling as the immigrants from England - Babb. Over the years both groups of descendants have been surprised to find that there existed both Englishmen and Bavarians of a similar surname. We have been able to construct lines on only four of the Bavarian families who came into PA from Rotterdam, so the others just "disappeared into the woodwork." Johannes/John who arrived 1752 with wife Anna MARIE (Riel) began a line that has been traced extensively, and we will outline their early generations below. I expect that some of the descendants will eventually produce a book on just their lines, which are now spread across the continent. JOHAN CONRAD Babb, a tinsmith arrived 1736 on the ship "Harle" from Rotterdam and settled in the Alsace area near Reading, PA. We can follow his line some because of the tinsmith occupation. JOHAN George arrived 9 Sep 1751 on the ship "Patience" from Rotterdam. He settled in Berks Co., PA and later Lycoming Co., PA, and Freeport, IL. Some moved on to the Dakota Territory, now South Dakota. JACOB Babb arrived from Rotterdam on the ship "Neptune" in 1746. He took the Oath of Allegiance to the Province and the State of Pennsylvania 25 Oct 1746 (PA Archives Vol. XVII, second series 1890). This JACOB was in York Co., PA in 1760. He supposedly had a daughter Rebecca b. ca 1725-30 who Married Benjamin Piersol, son of Job. Two daughters of Peter [1-2-1] Babb Married Piersols, which makes this marriage of the daughter of Bavarian JACOB Babb to a Piersol even more interesting. Benjamin and Rebecca had a son Samson Piersol who Married Susanna Castor and she had a sister Rebecca who Married John Babb [1-2-1-4-1] and settled in Columbiana Co., OH.
