![]()
This family association is
supported by descendants of Johannes H. Sauvage (born
ca. 1698) in the Alsace-Lorraine Region. He immigrated with his family aboard
the Winter Galley,
arriving 05 Sep 1738. He purchased land in Berks County, PA. on
20 Mar 1743. He died in Berks County, PA. in 1761. His
son Heinrich used the Americanized surname Sowash.
Descendants of Heinrich's line moved west to Westmoreland County, PA. by 1790 while some other (as yet unconnected) descendants
remained in Berks County and retained the original Sauvage/Savage
surname.
