Christopher Reinewald was a farmer and lived in Towamencin Twp., near Kulpsville, Pa.

Tradition says David Reinewald had a fine coat which he prized highly and which, for fear of being stolen during the encampment of the Revolutionary soldiers in Towamencin, he hid under the bushes along the Towamencin Creek, and brought it from its hiding-place again after the soldiers left.
