[6]Jacob Newhard, the German spelling, was used on the Original Returns.
[7]Der unabhangige Republikaner (Allentown, PA) from October 25 lists Jacob Neuhart with 2036 votes in the district but does not provide alternate township totals from those printed in the October 18 edition which lists Newhart with 2039 total votes.
[8]The Independent Republican from October 25 lists Jacob Newhart with 1939 votes.
[9]The True American and Commercial Advertiser (Philadelphia, PA) from October 16 lists John Weiss with 1853 votes though this is most likely a type setting error.
[10]The vote total for Jacob Neuhart is listed, with individual totals, in Der unabhangige Republikaner (Allentown, PA) from October 18. Individual vote totals for the county are difficult to read, and what is reported here is a best guess as to what the numbers read. Other candidates totals are clear.
