He married SARAH ELIZABETH BLACK April 04, 1867 in Macomb, Illinois. Notes for HEZAKIAH SWIGART: They got married in Macomb, ILL. And between 4 to 6 yrs later they moved to Iowa ( Shenandoah, Iowa area) They lived there for about 3 years. Then moved to Westboro, Mo. area and stayed there. After that, that is where the family stayed until 1996. In the meanwhile I Sandra (Bricker) Sheldon lived in Mo., then moved to Iowa after my father died. And then moved to Oklahoma. (See rest under Sandra Bricker Sheldon) HEZEKIAH SWIGART & SARAH ELIZABETH SWIGART Hezekiah Swigart, son of Jeremiah and Sarah ( Godfrey) Swigart, was born in Newark, Licking County, Ohio on December 4, 1842.

They then moved to a farm near Westboro, Atchison County, Missouri. We believe the trips were made with horse and wagons. They were farmers and lived on the farm until their death. Sarah passed away April 23, 1916. Although Hezekiah joined the Christian church in Illinois he was deprived of attending church because he was hard of hearing. Family members tells us that Hezekiah was struck by lighting and evenutally had to be confined to a hospital where he died June 3, 1922 in St. Joseph, Missouri. Sarah and Hezekiah and their small daughter, Lydia, are buried in Grange Hall Cemetery. Sarah’s mother and father had five children in all.

He married MARY GANTZ March 21, 1811 in Gettysburg, PA, daughter of GEORGE GANTZ and DORCAS DAY. Notes for GEORGE SWIGART: This was found in the FREDERICK COUNTY MILITIA IN THE WAR OF 1812 - Rewards were offered by Captain Duvall in th e local Frederick newspaper for the following who deserted while at camp at Bladensburg, on Sunday, 14th August, 1814, “Privates in my company, now in the service of the U. States, : : Daniel Misinger, substitute, dark eyes, dark hair, one fore finger off at the first joint, by profession a laborer. But it went on about who all desserted and they were seeking to find them. Then after several men were listed, then there was a section on who was serving and their positions under the Captain. Capt. Daniel Zacharias Troop of Cavalry of the Second Regiment first Cavalry Distirct Maryland Militia. Service 7 Aug - 10 Sep 1814. Zacharias’s company formed at Westminster and was discharged at Port Tobacco, Charles County. Zacharias was later succeeded by John Shuee. Daniel Zacharias, Capt. John L. Wells, 1st Lieut.

Fredrick Hoppy, trumpeter Jacob Coppensmith, farriar Privates: Christopher Knipple David Shuee William Hanes, 10 Aug - 10 Sep 1814 Adam Sterner Robert Crawford Jacob Lawyer George Zachareias Bazil Hayden Jacob Grammer Fredrick Bachman Christian Garver Nicholas Corbin William Campbell Lee Tipton Peter Nail I do believe that Adam Schweigert in the Index of Pioneers is the same Adam Schweigert/ Swigart that I am decended from. There was also Hans George ( Hans Geo.), J. Jost , Philip. It said in the Pennsylvania German Pioneers on Pg 8 & 9 about the Passenger Ship List on who was on it. This is what it said... This is a true List of Passengers, imported in the Ship William & Sarah, Will m Hill, Mast r from Rotterdam, among whom are no convicts. Given upon oath, by Tho. Tober. “ At a Council held at the courhouse of Philadelphia, September 21 st, 1727, ... A signed list was laid before the Board, of the Names of one hundred & nine Palatines, who with their famililes, making in all about four hundred Persons, were imported in this Province in the Ship William and Sarah, William Hill, Master, from Rotterdam, but last from Dover, as by Clearance from the Officers of his majesties Customs there: And the said Master being asked, if he had any license from the Court of Great Britain for transporting those People, & what their Intentions were in coming hiteher, said that he had no other License or Allowance for their Transportation that the above Clearance, and that he believed they designed to settle in this Province. They were then called in, and the several Persons whose names were subjoyned did repeat & subscribe the forgoing Declaration . : >From the Minutes of the Provincial Council, printed in Coonial Record, vol. III, p. 283. List 1 B - Palatines imported in the ship William & Sarah, Willm Hill, Comm r from Rotterdam, who hereunto sett their hands the 21 st of Sep r 1727, in the presence of the Gov r & Council. It has a whole lot of people with German names, then it has later down on the bottom of the second column- Hans Phillip Schweikhardt, which was probably the original way they probably spelled their names in Germany back then anyway. George & Mary (Gantz) Swigart George Swigart, son of Adam and Elizabeth, was born about 1788, probably in Frederick County, Maryland. On March 21,1811 George married Mary Gantz in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Rev. Grubb performed the ceremony. Mary was born in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and was a daughter of George and Dorcas ( Day) Gantz, natives of Germany and the Days form Ireland. George learned the trade of a brickmason and plasterer. While living in Frederick Co, a son, Jeremiah, was born December 2, 1814. About 1815 George and Mary moved their family to Newark, Licking County, Ohio. The move was made using two twams: one a four- horse team, and the other a three- horse team. George and Mary had six sons and three daughters. This listings does not indicated order of birth as we still have much to learn about the family.

During the War of 1812 George was a private in the Calvary commanded by Captain Daniel Zacharius of Maryland Militia commanded by Colonel Ken and Major John Cook. George volunteered and was mustered into service at Westminster, Frederick Co, Maryland on the 7th. of August 1814. he served about 40 days being discharged in Fredericktown, Maryland. George continued as a contractor for many years. Then decided to go into farming and purchased a farm near St. Louisville living there till 1846 when he sold the place and bought another farm near Tiffin, Seneca Co, Ohio. He lived there until his death June 20, 1855. We believe Mary continued to live in Seneca Co. with a sister. We have no information on her death or where she is buried. There is no stone for Mary next to her husband in the McCutchenville Methodist Cemetery, Seneca Co. Ohio. But there just might have not been enough money or any stone to be placed at her grave site either. During the War of 1812 it was not uncommon to serve for 40 days or less.

Descendants of Adam Swigart Generation No. 1 1. ADAM1 SWIGART1,1,2. He married ELIZABETH. Notes for ADAM SWIGART: I have found in my families history a story of how our Swigart/Schwigart/Swikard came to America. I want to give thanks to Ellabell Swigart Eker for helping our family in 1983 gather alot of history on the Swigarts. I had what my grandparents had which was also alot and then got with a couple of other lines of our Swigart family. I am still receiving history from the different lines of our cousins. I will later place them in here. But for now here is some of the wonderful history passed down to my family. It is said that Adam Swigart served in the American Revolution the earliest written record so far shows that he was in the United States in 1790. It is believed that he came from Stuttgart, Germany and finally settled in Frederick County, Maryland. The following information came from wills written by Adam Schwigart Sr. and Adam Schwigart Jr. census takers later changed it to Swigart. The sons were George ( which is mine), Adam Jr. , Christopher and John. The daughters were Mary ( unmarried in 1832), a daughter Catherine who married John Shuce, and three other daughters that are not listed by their first names but they were married to Jacob Haines, Henry Haines, and Andrew Powder. Adam Sr. also made bequests to his sister, Margaret Cook, and a granddaughter Sarah, daughter of Adam Jr. who had already died. Adam Jr. also mentions his Aunt margaret Swigart, so she married sometime between 1823 and 1832. There are various spelllings for the name Swigart as in the wills and census records. Those taking the census probably used the phonetic system of spelling. Or just didn't know how to spell the names. LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF ADAM SCHWIGART: In the name of God Amen, I Adam Schwigart of Frederick County and State of Maryland being weak in body but of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, calling to mind the certainty of death & the uncertainty of the time thereuf and being desireous to settle my wordly affairs, before it shall please God to call me hence by death: I therefore make and publish this my last will and testament, in manner and form following: First and principally, I commit my soul into the hands of Almight God, and my body to the earth, to be decently buried and after my debts and furneal charges are paid.
