He may have learned this trade from his uncle Michael Fedele, Jr., who was also a potter. 3)An article found in the Penn Magazine of History and Biography, Vol. 54 (1930), page 113 says "Christian Piercy, potter,...1774...offered a reward of $6.00 for a runaway apprentice boy, John Cribbs, aged 17, who either cared little of his master of did not aspire to be a potter." 4) John was a private in the 8th pennsylvania Continental Line during the Revolutionary War and was said to have served throughout the war. Joseph Kellogg notes in his "The Cribbs-Krebs Family" that he "attained the rank of Captain. After the war he held this rank in the Westmoreland County militia and at one time held the rank of Major. The Pa. Archives, 6th series, vol. 3, p. 1379, give a list of the militia officers in the First Battalion,"agreeable to election" of the Westmoreland 'malatia', dated July 7, 1789. The colonel was Christopher Truby, and the Major was John Cribs.
