I am looking for Harter/Herder records from about 1750 to 1770. Specifically, I am looking for births of Georg and Eva Harter's other children: Georg, Christina, Adam, Frantz, Jacob, Conrad, Elizabeth, Magdalena, Dorothea, and Catharina. At that time their name was most frequently spelled Herder. I found their wedding (26 Oct 1752) and the birth -- or christening -- of their oldest son, Christian (4 Aug 1753), in Lehigh County records. In 1769 the family shows up in the Frederick County, MD, church records and I have reason to believe that during the interval they just might have been in the Tulpehocken region.

Ch from 1745, and from Altalaha Ch from 1757 -- all in Tulpehocken or Upper Tulpehocken Tp Charlotte Meldrum's MARRIAGES & DEATH OF MONTGOMERY CO PA 1685-1800 also doesn't show any of them. An Elisabeth Härder [a umlaut] married George Fenstermacher 30 Aug 1796 in Heidelberg Tp, Lehigh Co, per the Johs. Helffrich personal and pastoral records. If your HERDER family left earlier, she may belong to the Martin HERDER who shows up in the area in the 1790s. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Author: RobertHarter Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.pennsylvania.counties.berks/9906/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Does anyone know of early birth records in Berks County? I am looking for Harter/Herder records from about 1750 to 1770. Specifically, I am looking for births of Georg and Eva Harter's other children: Georg, Christina, Adam, Frantz, Jacob, Conrad, Elizabeth, Magdalena, Dorothea, and Catharina. At that time their name was most frequently spelled Herder. I found their wedding (26 Oct 1752) and the birth -- or christening -- of their oldest son, Christian (4 Aug 1753), in Lehigh County records. In 1769 the family shows up in the Frederick County, MD, church records and I have reason to believe that during the interval they just might have been in the Tulpehocken region.
