Therefore he is born 1794-5. He is buried in Bermudian Lutheran Church Cemetery in Latimore Twp. If he is born in 1795 he would be 21 in 1816 and show up in the Taxes if he was single. In 1816 and 1817 Peter is single in Latimore Twp. The only Latimore Hartman old enough to be his father is Andrew in Latimore Twp. Also in the 1824 Reading taxes Andrew transfers 70 acres out of 230A to Peter. Peter then remains in Reading twp. Andrew's wife Eve Balser Smith dies April 22, 1828 age 65-1-0. Andrew is over 45 in 1810 so he is between 35 and 45 in 1800, Therefore I estimate he was born ca 1760. Latimore was created from Huntington Twp and others in 1807 therefore Huntington is where to look for Andrew. In 1790 Andrew is Andrew Herdman in the census. In 1800 and 1810 Andrew has males of the correct age to be Peter. In 1789 Deed 2G-22 Edward Hunt sells Andrew Hartman of Hunting! ton 65 A and 41 perches in Huntington Twp for 250 pounds. Andrew was fined for not participating in militia drills in 1778-1780. Andrew's father is probably Philip. There is a Philip in Berwick Twp in 1762 and there is a Philip in Reading Twp in 1762. I don't know if they are the same Philip or not. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
