Preface

The information contained within this book has been collected from numerous sources over the years. These details vary from genealogist’s handwritten notes, items scribbled on bits of paper or in the margins of books, to documented records at the FFAA library, county court houses or state archives. The information from transcribed records are essential to this book, but the process opens the possibilities for errors. We have found that information can be misinterpreted in many ways.

We have done our utmost to “give credit, when credit is due.” Through the years, we have been contacted by a small number of contributors whom generally express the same theme. It is that their material used without receiving proper recognition. If we have not properly acknowledged a source, it was through an error in record keeping and not an intentional act. If this oversight has occurred, we sincerely apologize. Our goal is to preserve the history of John Friend Sr. and his family. When asking a researcher for permission to include some of her work in this book, she replied; “You are welcomed to use any portion or all of it as you wish. I do not own it. It is owned by our ancestors and committed into our care to pass along to those that follow after.” How profound and true are those word, for the history of our ancestors is not ours to own and hide away, but it is rather something to be shared with all “that follow after”.

The information for family lines was collected from direct descendants whenever possible. Hopefully, this direct connection with a person would generate the most accurate information. Unfortunately, this can be the source of family legends. While most legends are based on actual events, the final version of a story can stray wide of the mark. 16

Therefore, the information within this text, though thoroughly checked, may still contain unintentional errors. If these errors do exist, we truly apologize.

Introduction

John Friend Sr. influenced generations of descendents by leading a normal life.

John Friend Sr. moved his young family and wife, Karrenhappuck Hyatt, into the wilds of Western Maryland over 250 years ago. What John found that was so unique or compelling in the backwoods is lost to time. We believe he made this journey to provide a better life for his family and those who came afterwards. John Friend Sr. has become one of the most noted people in early Garrett County history, for he is credited as the first emigrant to establish a permanent home in that wilderness.

The goal of this book is to honor John’s memory by preserving the facts of his life and those of his ancestors as well as descendents. John Friend Sr. was probably born about 1728 in the Monocacy Hundred1, Prince George’s County (now Frederick),

Maryland. We believed he passed away some time after 1808 in Allegany County (now

Garrett) Maryland. John Friend Sr., commonly known as “Old” John Friend, was the son of Nicholas Friend and the great grandson of Nils Larsson Friend. Nils Friend (Frande) immigrated to the new world from Sweden in 1648 and John’s lineage can be trace back to Nils as follows:

John Friend Sr. (Abt. 1728 to Aft. 1808) Nicholas Friend (Abt. 1700 to Abt. 1791) John (Johannes) Nilsson Friend I (Abt. 1666 to Abt. 1737) Nils Larsson Friend (Abt. 1619 to Abt. 1686)

Work started on this book over sixteen years ago, when Patty (Friend) Thompson set out to discovered her own Friend heritage. At first, we collected the existing information about John and his family, thus considering ourselves “Gatherers” of

1 The definitions of a ‘hundred” when use as a land terms referred to a political and taxation unit carried over from English law. The hundred is smaller than a county and consisting of enough land to raise approximately one hundred fighting men. 18 information rather than genealogists. Our intentions were to share these facts, histories and stories with our families. Because of this limited view, there was a careless trend in documenting or citing sources of this early research. Contacts were developed with other researchers (some, via the Internet) through the years and many have graciously and generously shared their own work. We became acquainted through the Internet over six years ago. For nearly a year there were questions, answers and information emailed back and forth, before discovering that we lived within five miles of one another. This compilation and evaluation of information about John Friend Sr. and his family has extended through the years. Most of the facts and stories presented in the book were first rediscovered by other descendents of John Friend Sr. These tales have been confirmed at times, while some stories, once thought-to-be-set in stone, have been questioned and refuted.

Sadly, our immediate families had little or no interest in the work. It became apparent that after we were gone, this research would end up in a closet and eventually thrown away. We set out to prevent that fate which (unfortunately) awaits too many family histories. The Friend Family series of books slowly began to evolve through this process.

The early histories of John Friend Sr. and his family were based upon “family legends”. Family legends are usually based on facts, which have a habit of evolving through the years. This publication is not intended to discount the value of “family legends” or previous publications. Many researchers place little value in these stories. By contrast, we consider these tales the only remaining avenue into the life of John and his family. These stories, told time and again, are all that are left of the personal life of 19

John Friend Sr., who lived in a time long before state or government record keeping were standardized. Most early records of John’s family come from family Bibles or personal reminiscences. Hopefully, the information contained within this book will provide a more comprehensive picture of John Friend Sr.’s life. We have attempted to include all of the stories we have gathered through the years, to let the reader judge for themself.

Regrettably, we have been compelled to include the following phrase: “we cannot confirm or refute this information.”

There are five points that seem to meander through the earlier reports about

John Friend Sr. and his great grandfather Nils Larsson Friend.

(1) Nils Larsson Friend (Frande) emigrated from Sweden in 1648 and settled in South

Eastern PA. Nils Larsson Frande (Friend) is listed as a passenger on the Swan

along with 11 other men. We do not believe that Nils was an English Sea Captain.

Dr. Peter S. Craig has researched this point thoroughly and proven, in our

opinion, that Nils Larsson Friend (Frande) was from Sweden.

(2) We can find no documentation that of John Friend Sr.’s middle name was Lewis or

Levis. The origins of this point are unclear, yet nearly every citation on the

Internet lists John L. Friend or John Lewis Friend. This reference seems to appear

sometime after Evelyn Guard Olsen published Indian Blood in 1967. Some

researchers believe that Lewis (or Levis) may have been the maiden name of

John Friend Sr.’s mother. We can find no reference (in a letter, land deed, family

Bible, and so forth) that lists a middle initial or name for John Friend Sr.

Therefore, we cannot confirm or refute that Old John’s name middle was Lewis or

Levis. 139

47 Son of Nicholas Friend, grandson of John Friend I, great grandson of Nils Larsson Friend 48 Many researchers claim John’s middle name is Lewis or Levis. We cannot confirm or refute this claim. 49 David Harrison Friend, the grandson of Karrenhappuck and “Old John” Friend, wrote a letter in 1904 and states that his grandmother’s maiden name was Hyatt. Many believe Karrenhappuck Hyatt was the daughter of Job Hyatt and that his wife was a Native American. Unfortunately, we cannot confirm or refute either her father’s name or mother’s native American lineage. 50 Due to the enormous amount of information, the details of Sarah Friend, Susannah Friend, Gabriel Friend, John Friend Jr. Joseph Friend and Charles Friend and their descendents are featured in numerous books. A brief description of each family is listed in this book. 141

The “Old John” Cemetery is the final resting place of John Friend Sr. The cemetery is located in ML 3282 about a quarter of a mile due West of Friendsville, MD.

The map outline is based on USGS and ADC maps of present day Garrett County, MD. The N, E, S, and W boundaries for The Military Lots are estimated from the mile markers of the 1787 Hezh. Veatch Map of Allegany/ Garrett County Map. The proportions of the North-Western side of the 1787 map are accurate to a tenth of a mile. The actual location may shift, but based on the maps, this is a "best guess" overlay of a modern day map onto the 1787 map. The road and run names come from the 2002 ADC Map. This location of Friends’ Fortune very accurate. The Eastern (right) side this plot rests on the Western bank on the Youghiogheny River by Friendsville, MD. The upper right corner of ML 3282 is located at the Maple Street Bridge that crosses the Youghiogheny River in present day Friendsville, MD. 231
