Shared records at Ancestry.com are all over the place on this guy. Many have him listed as John Nicholas Ickes, born in Schoharie, NY. However, none of these have a source other than someone else’s gedcom file. They also vary on Johann/John’s parents. Some say he is the child of John (Johann) Christian Ickes and Margaret. Other’s list him as the child of the “widow” Ickes... father unknown.

I have no idea.

The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution Volume 114, page 68 (See DAR ID: 113198):

Michael Ickes in 1777 was assessed for 150 acres of land, two horses and three cows. He was born, about 1741, in Montgomery County, Pa.; was drowned in the Schuylkill River, 1778.

Evidence of service has since come in to question.
