| 12783 | “...., a memorial plaque to the Reverend Hatch Dent which is installed in the Dent Chapel at Charlotte Hall Military Academy reads as follows: “Reverend Hatch Dent, son of Hatch and grandson of Captain John Dent of Yorkshire, England, and one of the early settlers of Maryland was born May 1757 and died December 30,1799. Hatch was an honored officer in the army of the Revolution of 1776 and an eminent teacher and Minister of the Church, ordained by Bishop Seabury in 1785.” | Dent, Hatch (I14095)

He is sometimes referred to as “Rich” John Schrock because he purchased two sections of land and started what is now called Honeyville, which was originally called Schrock. John and Gertrude are buried in a small cemetery in the center of this farm north of Honeyville, Their tombstones are two of three engraved tombstones in this cemetery. Had nine children. | Schrag, Johannes (I5520)

| 12786 | “Aaron was called into the service (World War I), and he arrived at Camp Forrest in Chattanooga, Tennessee in September 1918. Aaron went as a Conscientious Objector. He was told to put the military uniform on, or dig his own grave. He chose to dig his own grave, at gunpoint. When the men in the military saw that Aaron was willing to die for his convictions, they spared his life. Aaron was allowed to work as a cook for the military, and because of his status, he actually had to pay the military. This experience was difficult, because many of our forefathers had come to America to escape, among other things, military service.” | Zehr, Aaron Everett (I2730)
|
| 12787 | “After Andrew and Veronica married, they probably soon moved into the [Johannes] Sutter home, after the elder Sutters moved into the smaller house just across the garden. Their home was about eighteen feet long and sixteen feet wide. Its one room was divided into a kitchen and bedroom by a curtain. The hired man had to climb a ladder to his bed in the loft. Later an addition was built to the house for use as a kitchen in the summer. It could not be used during the winter because it was not built very warm and was floorless. The pole barn was eight feet high, sixteen feet wide, and eighteen feet long. In the wall in front of the horses was a flap door, which was opened at feeding time. The haystacks were just outside. Oats was kept in a rail pen nearby.” Andrew and Veronica bought 80 acres of the Sutter land in 1882 for $50 an acre. In 1891 they sold the land for $95 an acre and moved to Fisher. He bought some land in the same section where daughter Mary and her husband had purchased land and built a house. | Birky, Andrew (Andréas) S. (I493)

| 12788 | “After the death of his father Michael Kinzinger was comparatively homeless. He went to live with a gentleman by the name of Gingve, near the town of Morborg, where he remained for ten years following. When sixteen years of age he commenced to learn the blacksmith trade, at which he worked two years. He then abandoned this and engaged in distilling, being thus occupied fourteen years. After spending one year in Bavaria he set sail for the United States, first landing in New York City, whence he went into Butler County, Ohio, and followed his former business as a distiller. “ | Kinzinger, Michael (I8634)
|
| 12789 | “After the wedding, a supper and reception were held in their home south of Deer Creek, Illinois. There was a gathering of Mennonites to help celebrate. Joseph Verkler, an elder in the Apostolic Christian Church who was visiting in Slabtown, was invited to attend the reception. After supper, the couple brought out a game of dominoes for all the guests to enjoy. When they invited Joseph Verkler to join them, he politely declined and said that that was not for him. The young bride witnessed the way he stood for his religious beliefs and did not bend temporarily to satisfy his peers. As time unfolded, Joseph and Magdalena Schrock joined the Christian Apostolic Church.” | Family: Joseph Schrock / Magdalena Guingerich (F213)

| 12792 | “Although I have commonly seen Catherine, wife of John DENT listed as a TURNER, I think that may be in error. Do you know of any evidence for her being a TURNER? I have never seen anyone give a source for her being a TURNER. Harry Wright Newman's, *Charles County Gentry* only lists her as Catherine. My guess is that someone took the 1733 inventory of John DENT where George DENT and Edward TURNER signed as next of kin, and assumed that John DENT's wife Katherine was a TURNER. Fredric Z.

| 12793 | “Andreas and 11 others representing diverse religious groups made a land-scouting trip to North America from mid-April to September of 1873.11 They departed from Hamburg on the Frisia, arriving at New York May 29, 1873.12 From there they traveled to Fargo (now in North Dakota); Winnipeg, Manitoba; South Dakota; and Sioux City, Iowa before returning. On Aug. 16 at Lancaster, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania Andreas became the first of the Volhynian Mennonites to meet with American Amish Mennonites. He met with minister/elder Samuel Yoder of Mifflin County and Samuel Kauffman of Lancaster County. “On Aug. 21 Schrag and others boarded the Hammonia to return, arriving in West Prussia Sept. 6. He reunited with his family Sept. 21. The following spring the reunited Schrag family boarded the S.S. City of Richmond at Liverpool with Müller, Schwartz, and Waldner relatives, arriving at New York May 18, 1874. The passenger list shows farmer Andreas Schragg, 53; Barbara, 48; farmer Jno., 24; Ann, 22; Andra, 1; Barbara, 27; Jacob, 24; and Katharine, 24; all born in Russia. “Upon arrival the Schrag and Ewert families split off from the main group and went to Philadelphia. There they met with an agent of the Santa Fe Railroad who accompanied them the rest of the way. “According to Bernese Anabaptists, “During 1874 most of the Volhynian Swiss migrated to America. Andreas Schrag, who was sent by them a year before to investigate possibilities in America, led the first group of 10 families to near Yankton, South Dakota. Other larger settlements were made near Pretty Prairie, Kansas, and near Moundridge, Kansas.” “Eventually at least 159 families came in four groups: the first three to Turner and Hutchinson Counties in South Dakota, and only the fourth to Kansas (many of the German-speaking families in Kansas migrated to Manitoba during World War I). Though many of the families had lived as Amish Mennonites when they first left the Pfalz, by the time they migrated they would be described as Mennonites. “In Russia Andreas’s older brother Joseph Schrag had been an Amish Mennonite minister. Joseph’s son Johannes Schrag attended the assembly of Amish Mennonite ministers [Ger. Diener Versammlung] at Hopedale May 16-19, 1875. He was accompanied by Volhynian immigrant Jacob Stucky of Kansas. Jacob delivered the opening day Sunday morning sermon, and Johannes the afternoon sermon. Johannes also attended the assemblies at Archbold, Ohio in 1876; and Eureka, Woodford County in 1878 (the last major assembly of ministers). Christian Nafziger of Hopedale reciprocated by visiting South Dakota in 1877. “Andreas is also known for a trip to Pennsylvania he took with minister Joseph Graber in 1878. There they secured a $7,400 loan at six percent to tide over the Turner County settlement; it was repaid in three years. “They are found on the 1880 census of Township 98 Range 55, Turner County, South Dakota (in the southeastern corner of the state) as farmer Anders Schrag, 60, born in Russia to Swiss parents; and Barbara, 59, born in Russia to Swiss parents. “Andreas and Barbara are buried in Salem Zion Mennonite Cemetery in Turner County. Wooden markers there were destroyed by a prairie fire in 1889, and the Schrags are listed on a group memorial.” | Schrag, Andreas (I15219)

| 12794 | “Andreas/André/Andrew Burkey was born circa 1778. When he witnessed the birth of a nephew at Gondrexange, Moselle in 1798, his age was exaggerated as 31 and his place of residence given as Bouquenom [Ger. Bockenheim], now the east side of Sarre-Union, Lower Alsace. Circa 1801 he married Catherine/Katharina Ackermann, and they had six children at Söcking, Bavaria (this location is often found as 'Secking'; it is now part of Hanfeld, about 12 miles below Munich, adjacent to Starnberg at the head of Lake Starnberg). In 1802 he was a witness at the Rimsdorf marriage of Heinrich Ackermann and Barbara Birki, where his age was given as 23. In 1818 Andreas purchased the Perlach castle [Ger. Perlachsoed] outlying Munich on its southeastern side (see BECKLER for more on this location). The castle had been leased by Johannes Pechler and Christian Eichelberger. According to Helmut Gingerich, Andreas sold it in 1830 with the intention of emigrating to Upper Canada (now Ontario). Whether or not he actually made that trip is an open question. If he did, he returned to Europe. They sailed from Le Havre on the William J. John, arriving at New York Aug. 6, 1835. The passenger list shows farmer Andrie Burky, 57; Catherine, 57; brewer Joseph Burky, 24; and Marie Burky, 22. They settled at Worth, Woodford County. “In the summer of 1835 the Schlegels resettled at Ten Mile Creek in Tazewell County. They may have made the trip with André/Andrew Burkey and Catherine Ackerman, who arrived at New York that year, and whose son Joseph Burcky married their daughter Catherine 'Katie' Schlegel that year. Lydia Slagel Smith wrote: "They had a long, tiresome journey, partly by boat and partly by wagon pulled with oxen. They were in peril of robbers, and had to keep a close watch over their possessions. They came through Fort Dearborn (Chicago) when there were only five houses there. A grandson thought they came to Illinois after a 'stopover in Canada,' so it is probable that they spent some time in Waterloo County, Ontario, where they had relatives. They may have intended to locate there, deciding later to go on to Illinois as many others did." Andreas Bircky from Schönbrunn, the Ingolstadt County Court, represented the children of Christian Güngerich’s first marriage in a contract at the time of his second marriage in 1816. | Bircky (Burcky), Andreas Sr. (I2580)

| 12795 | “Anna Rose was a beauty, said her niece Ruth Chapman. She attended Eureka College as did most of her brothers and sisters. This college was later attended by our current United States President, Ronald Reagan. She married Walter Mutt. They farmed near Lacon, then moved to Monte Vista, Colorado where Walter was in the mercantile business. He died of tuberculosis in 1895. Her second marriage to Arno Anke ended in divorce. None of Anna and Walter’s three children are surviving. They were: Alice (Mrs. Earl Taylor, Frank (Boydie) Jr. whose wife was Lena Danhof, and Wilma (Mrs. W.W. Thompson). Anna Rose and Arno had one daughter, Mary (Mrs. Roy Peck) who is now widowed and lives in the P.E.O Home at Knoxville.” | Belsly, Anna Rose (I5350)

| 12796 | “Anne Schmitt, the widow of Jean Kempt. The latter, widower of Anne Abresol who died in 1814 in Nitting, remarried the same year with Anne Schmitt de Lafrimbolle and took the mill of imling. he died in 1822, and his widow continued farming. In the census of 1846 she was surrounded by several servants. She died in 1851.” | Kempf, Jean (I14610)

| 12797 | “Another family Schottenhof installed between 1827 and 1833 is that of Jean Roggy (a son of Jacques Roggy miller to mill Oderfang in Saint-Avold and Véronique Gingerich, born about 1806) and Catherine Risser. During this time the couple has four children. Afterwards they leave Sarralbe to settle in Denting, where they die, both of them (John and Catherine in 1865 in 1892). Their son Christian, born in 1833, emigrated to the US in 18519. One of his descendants returned a few years ago in the footsteps of his ancestors Schottenhof. It existed in the farm a tomb of the family Roggy, the latter would have disappeared during the Second World War (Mrs. Schoeser Testimony of Schottenhof). Another Roggy family, that of Joseph (a son of Jean and Catherine Roggy Guingerich, born in 1815 near Weidesheim Kalhausen (57), came to Schottenhof in 1840 with Barbara Schantz whom he married in Kalhausen in November 1839. She died September 30, 1840, four days after giving birth to a son named John. May 1, 1841, Joseph remarried in Sarralbe with Madeleine Schertz also from Weidesheim, where his father André was a miller, his mother being Jacobine Engel. The couple had two children in 1842 and 1844, then leaves Sarralbe shortly after to go to Borny, near Metz, where was born the third child in 1846. “ | Roggy, Jaques (I5738)

| 12800 | “As for the mill of imling, we find there Joseph Ringenberg, husband of Anne Litwiller (Dettweiler) in the revolutionary period “miller and farmer”. He was imprisoned for violating the law of September 10th, 1793, which forbids millers to sell grain or flour. It was later found again at Imling in 1809 (two people) during the first Napoleonic census. “His son Joseph, born in 1775, engaged in the revolutionary wars had a tragic fate, during the retreat of Moscow. On April 19, 1820, Sarrebourg Civil Court of First Instance declared the death of Josep Ringenberg at the request of father Joseph Ringenberg and a brother Andre Ringenberg who had not seen him again since 1810. “Following the court's judgment, Joseph and Andre Ringenberg, in 1821, ceded a plot of plowed land of 108 ares, surrounded by hedges as heirs of Joseph Ringenberg in Canton Ie Grand Jardin for a sum of 900 francs. Father Joseph Ringenberg could not sign “being crippled with the right hand.” | Rinkenberger, Joseph (I10132)
