Hi researcher's, would someone be so kind as to inform me about Casper Hendershot, born abt 1770,Greene Co. Pa ? He could be the answard to my brick wall ! Appreciate any help. Bruce Freeman glenn@mwci.net

Here is the short version: I'm Mark Alan Hadlund, b. 22 Oct. 1959; Mom is Minnie Malinda Walling, b. 17 Aug. 1926; Grandmother is Effie Sandage, b. 25 March 1896, d. 10 April 1987; Great-grandmother is Sarah Minnie Hendershot, b. 1864, d. ca. 1905 (although I was told that her name was Minnie Elizabeth Hendershot, plus it is the name listed in her husbands obituary. He is Joshua Sandage.) >From there it goes: Garrison, b. Feb. 1837; George Washington, b. Dec. 1789, d. 18 Jan 1867; John, b. 1764, d. 11 April 1897; Jacob, b. 6 July 1747, d. 11 Feb. 1828; and so on. Mark

I've just begun research on my Hendershot line, so my information is a bit sketchy. I've checked the copy of William E. Hendershot's book that's in the New York City library, but no luck yet. Here's the information provided to me by my great-aunt: William Albert Hendershot m. Ida Mae Hoce, daughter of Arthur C. Hoce. They came from Baltimore and settled in Parkersburg, WV. I believe William may have had a sister, Rachel, and a brother, Michael Lynn. William's children included: Lyle who moved to Columbus, OH Woodrow Rose who stayed in Parkersburg, WV Violet Jack Albert Ellsworth b. January 27, 1922, d. July 1984 m. Maggie Mae Rawlings, daughter of John Rawlings and Maggie Mae Redman. Albert is my grandfather. Hopefully I will have more information on him soon, but this is what I know at the moment. If anyone knows anything on this line, I'd appreciate hearing from you. Thanks, Kerry Hendershot kbhend@accesshub.net

Don't be disappointed what I sent isn't that much. I won't be able to go to the reunion because until I get my 7 lines that cross in Preston W. Va. straightened out every trip we take will be to Preston. I don't need the German History someone sent it to me last year. Also I didn't notice your Menear query. I'm afraid if it isn't my line I don't pay too much attention because my hard copies are driving me out of the house. Their taking over. Barbara gorgine@aol.com

Karen I sent yours too. Barbara gorgine@aol.com I'm still looking for record of when William Menear & Mary Hendershot got married & where.

Greetings all, May I make a few observations on the very good short history of the immigrant family posted by Karen, Thu Nov 11, 1999. We need to refine a couple of points she made to help us understand the familys situation at the time. 1. When the Protestant Palatinate came under the domination of the Catholic French army, a good deal of conversion went on. Wilhelm Henneschied had been a lapsed Catholic. So his Lutheran wife brought up their eight children in her faith. However, the Franciscan monks doing the local conversions considered that half of the youngsters should be Catholic. They took the four youngest and indoctrinated them so thoroughly that after they returned home, their mother complained bitterly that there were constant arguments about religion. 2. Indeed, Michaels family embarked on a ship in 1709, but the captains did not want to sail the cold north Atlantic during the winter season of savage storms. In any case they were being paid "pro-rata" for every day the passengers were on board. So the German emigrants were more or less hostages. The owners and captains of the fleet of ships were "getting fat", while their passengers were suffering from the miserable crowded shipboard conditions as the ships road at anchor offshore. They finally set sail in May, and I believe took six weeks to cross the ocean. During the whole time on board, it is reckoned that one out of every seven passengers died. As far as I know, the name of the ship which the family travelled on has not been discovered. Certainly the "Lyon" was in the fleet, but I think no document actually specifies that they were aboard it. Regards John Ruch

Regards John Ruch >> Hi Cousin John; I want to thank you so much for adding to the historical information that I quoted from William E. Hendershot book. This is exactly the type of event that I hoped would happen. When we are able to have such an expert as you comment on items here on the Hendershot List we are very priviledged. I am thinking of scanning pages 2-15 of Wm.s historical information from the book and would like very much for you to also add your comments to them . I hope Frank will soon decide to join the list. He is missing some interesting lines. I'm sure he must be away since as of today he has not joined the list. If you have not do it yet, I would like to invite you to participate in the ROLL CALL by listing your line.... names, dates, places, etc. Thanks again for your very welcome additions. Best regards to you and Sherry, Cousin Karen in Pa.

Dear Barbara, I can't wait to see what you have. Do you think you can come to the Hendershot Researchers Reunion? We have a great time. We have meetings and take tours of all the places the Hendershots lived in, visit cemerteries and make plans to do research. Do you want information about where they lived in Germany? Did you notice the query I posted on Minear Forum about the Rudy-Minear marriage? I found it in one of my Rudy newsletter. Barbara Rudy

Hello all, Please let me introduce myself. My name is Garnet Helen Hendershot Eisler. Though my first name is Garnet, I use my second name, Helen. I am the sixth daughter of Charles Kenneth Hendershot, born June 25, 1900/died June 6, 1959. My father was born in Dawson Ridge, Monroe County, OH. My grandfather's name was Wesley Hendershot and I am not sure when he was born, but he died in the 1930s or early 1940s. Wesley was married to ? Winland. They had nine children; all are deceased now. I was a history major in college and just need 8 credits for my bachelors degree. I have an associates in Secondary Ed with a history minor. My field of history is Ancient History, from the beginning of time to about 800 AD. I have done a lot of research and am doing research for a book on a local landmark in my area. I have been online for years and can remember the Internet when it was all text and directories. I am a list owner and webmaster of another list and am familiar with list operation, maintenance and protocol. I have agreed to be administrator of this list. I'll be mostly in the background. And looking for a possible link to my family. Now I would like to offer a couple suggestions. 1. When you quote anything from a book in a message to the list, please include the book you are quoting from, the author of the book and the page number. Otherwise, you break copyright law. And yes, even here on the Internet. 2. Let's try to remember to enter a subject for our messages. It makes it easier to sort and identify mail. 3. Please use plain ASCII test. And do not use colored text or background. Some list members may receive "funny" characters in the list mail they receive, or the message may be unreadable if you get fancy. Very annoying! 4. And last but not least, please do not give your mailing address or other really personal information on the list. One never knows who is out there. And just one last thing, though it is from my historical experience. Just because you find a person with the name you are looking for in county records, that may not be the person you are looking for. There may have been at least one other person with the same name. Believe me, I know from my experience! Now, back to the Hendershot families. Helen Hendershot Eisler Hendershot List Administrator.

The following is more information taken from the Hendershot Ancestors Book, by William E. Hendershot. This information is found on page 16 and 17 of the book. More Hendershot history from the book to follow. MICHAEL HINNESCHIED/ HENDERSHOT. Immigrant) Born 1674 4 Rhineland-Pfalz., Germany near Mainz. This family were Lutheran but became Catholic by decree of the then ruler of the Palatinate, Records of conversion,., birth, baptism and death are recorded in the Archives of Reipoltskirchen 1682-1750- These records have been filmed and are available from the Genealogical Society of the Church of Latter Day Saints of Salt Lake City, UT. The Thirty Years wars of 1618-48 left Germany in economic ruin, her fields devastated and blood soaked, thereafter followed many decades of extreme poverty and hunger, with continuous wars and occupations by troops. Even the Naumberger Hof had billited troops for there is record of the widow, Hinneschied, petition for relief, Queen Ann of England in 1709 issued an invitation for these poor unfortunate Germans to come to England, which many did and in ever increasing numbers. Michael Hinneschied was one of the first to go to England and then on to America. Michael with wife Anna Catherina and 3 children came down the Rhine river to Rotterdam, where they sailed for England 28 Jul 1709, They departed Plymouth 29 Dec 1709 among about 3000 persons in 10 vessels on a perilous voyage for one boat capsized,.another turned back and one wrecked on the New York coast, this being known as the Second Palatine Migration. All were ravaged by sickness and disease, many died at sea, and many more died just after arrival. Michael with wife and 4 children arrived from the ship "Lyon" 13 Jun 171 0 at Nuttens (Governors). Island., New York harbor after nearly 6 months at sea, These Germans were then sent up the Hudson river to work the pine tar project in order to pay for passage, except those sick and unable to travel and some widows with children. Among them was Michael and family who remained in New York harbor that first winter. Michael then was sent to the pine tar project at Livingston Manor Jul 1711 to Sep 1712, at which time the project failed and Gov, Hunter proclaimed that each must make his own way. It is the opinion of the writer that it was son Peter that was sick on arrival and that he died that winter for there is no further record of him. When the tar project was abandoned in fall of 1712 many of these Germans settled in New York and in Pennsylvania but Michael and some other families returned to New York and in the winter of 1712-13 came to the present Franklin Twp of Somerset co NJ, where Michael settled on the Millstone River near the forks of the Rari+an river, It was here in Franklin Twp, that Pastor Justice Falckner, of the New York Lutheran Church, came to minister and where Michael had children baptized. Pastor Falckner was much beloved by this congregation and in New York for his compassion and good works. These records also are available from the Genealogical Society. After the death of Pastor Justice Falckner in 1723, his older brother Daniel Falckner came from PA. to be Pastor at Muhlstein @Millstone), On the Mountain (Pluckamin) and at Rochgeway (Rockaway/Lebanon), but he was not of the kind and sincere quality as his brother and was disliked from the start, He grew old and incompetent so that many parishoners abandoned the church and few services were held, but nevertheless, he refused to resign, A bitter enmity grew between our Michael and Pastor Falckner. Many families moved away 1727-29 so it is likely that Michael moved at this time to the Societies tract on Rockaway Creek, Tewksbury Twp, Hunterdon co NJ near White House and Potterstown. Michael was Elder of the Lutheran Church at On-the-Mountains and at Potterstown by 1731 when he was first to sign a Call to the Lutheran Ministerum at Hamburg for a new Pastor to come for which the elders agreed to pay salary and travel. A copy of this call is in Library of Congress and an account of the controversary is in the book "The Albany Protocol". Pastor Falckner had agreed to.resign but then refused to do so and he continued to live in the area. A New pastor did arrive 1734 by name of John Augustus Wolf, who was welcomed with great joy, but again was disliked being considered incompetent and unworthy, Efforts were made to remove him but he resisted, resulting in a long and costly legal battle carried eventually to the New Jersey supreme court. In the end Michael and the other elders had to pay heavily but Pastor Wolf had to resign and hand over his license and the call, Those who had signed then tore off their names so that it could never be used again. The church at Lebanon near Potterstown was built 1731, said to have been the first Lutheran church in New Jersey. The church at New Germantown (Now Oldwick) was built 1749-50, consolidation of three congregations and a new pastor was installed by name of John Albert Weygand who was capable and faithful Pastor but even so there were complaints against him so that his ordination was put off, One complaint was that he was seeking a bride when he should have been visiting the sick, one of which was Michael whom he knew only by reputation so it is not surprising that he considered him a sinner and an evil man as he wrote in his dairy. Pastor Weygand did visit Michael in Nov 1748 and again the day before his death when he prayed and sang with him for that night .17Jan 1749 Michael died and was buried 19 Jan, Pastor Weygand wrote in his dairy an account of the death and burial which may be read in "Early Germans of New Jersey", Michael was buried in the Lebanon Church Yard near Potterstown but the cemetery has become lost. That he was buried Oldwick is mistake, The name Hinneschieds of many different spellings, was changed during the life time of Michael and is found as Hunschutt, Henneschit, Henneschutt, Hintersehied, Rendershid and others to Hendershot, The name of von Hayderschatt in the, writings of Cleveland has no known connection to this family.
