For the origin and the rr.eaning of the name Heddrich there are two explana tlons. In the old high German the name was Hadu- rich, meaning "Prince of the Battle .. , The name Hadu is also found in the name Hed wig. The other explanation would be, "Leader of the Heath", or "Heath Pr:nce. '' FROM '.VHERE DID THE HEDDRICH'S COME TO AMERICA Karl Heddrich who on August 27, 1733 arrived in Philadelphia, Pa. with his wife Elizabetha and children--Johann Just, Wilhelm, Anna Catharine, Ann Margaretha (dead on arrival) and Georg Heinrich on the ship Elizabeth, and they lived in Langenselbold, Germany before no 1g rating. Below is a IT.ap showing the exact location of Langenselbold, ncarked with an X. This place, Langenselbold, lies in the Wetterau in Hessen, about fifteen miles east of Frankfurt on Main and six rniles northeast of Hanau. Even in the year 1108 Seibold is mentioned first in a com munication of Pope Paschalis II. At that time the Counts of Sebold were supporting an Augustinian Monastary which for a long time was the richest in the Wetterau. It was completely destroyed 1n the Peasants War of 1525. In the old cemetary stood the Peters Churrh. This church 1s mentioned in 1238 for the first time. From 1727 to 1735 a new church was built on Monastery Hill from the rums of the Monastery. The old Peters Church was dismantled in 1854 because it was shakey. Its tower with bell still stands today on the roof of the Comrrurnty House in the Steinweg (Stone Street). The place Langenselbold lies on the old highwav which leads frorr. Mainz through Hanau to Fulda. On this highway many Emperors have driven. Even Emperor Friednrh Barbarossa, (red beard) who pos sessed a castle in Lautern (today Kaiserslautern) used this old church to go to his Pfalz (name of a district) in Gelnhausen. All wars ·.vh1ch were fought in this land have left behind traces in Lam;cnselbold. In the Thirty Years War 1618-1648 (this was a religious v,ar) the place was almost completely de strayed. The wife of the emigrant Karl Heddrich was born (Ermold or Ermoldt) this fancily Er;,,old had been a long t:me in Langenselbold, for a Peter Ermold had a child baptized there in 1563. The church book contains until the outbreak of the Thirty Years War many births of Ermolds, but during the war years all names vanish until a Werner Ermold through whose four sons the fan,ilv again increases after the war disturbances. The family Heddrich appears first m Langenselbold rn 1700. From this tirre until the encmigration of 1733 it was sorre what quieter in the place. The years were devoted to builcLng up. In the year 1650 Seibold had 187 homes, m 1820, sixteen hundred and eighty two inhabitants. Today Langenselbold has eightv-eight hun dred inhabitants of which seventy-two hundred are Evangelical. The oldest house still standing was built in l6:J7. The new church which was started in the year l 72S was not able to be finished until two years after the depCtrture of Carl I-Ieddric-h. At this time the castle of the Prince of Isenburg was also being built. From 1670 to 1714 Johann Heinrich Ruth was minister in Langensel bold, followed by his son of the same name, 1 714 to 1 76 ). It must be remarked that on the ship Elizabeth, on which Carl Heddrich in 1733 came to Philadelphia, a certain Michel Ruth is named who may possi bly be from the same family. The present minister Hugo Piesch was minister in Prague from 1931-1945. He has been in Lang ens el bold since October I, 1953. 2 ~ rom the former 'Neinberg, which even today is called "Weingert" name of the mountain) one has a good view of Langenselbold. The "rotestant church on Monas:ary Hill stands out distinctly in the pre :eeding picture. In the park left of the church stands the castle of the "rir.ce of Isenburg and further to the left one sees the long stretched ·oof of a tithir.g barn which belongs to the castle, There the farmers ,ad to stare the tenth part of tr.eir products for the owner. Pictured below is a view of the protestant church of Langenselbold luring the fruit biossoming. Below is an air picture of Langenselboid wh1ch shows the two grea: dv,;elling buildings of the castle, of which the left one serves to day as Town Hall. The long roof to the right is the tithing barn. In the middle of the place stands the church and in the background the two-storied Boys' School. 3 To the right of the street one sees behin'.:.l the f~r tree the ;,!ti~le of the ~1anse \T;hich wzi.s built 1n 1717. In the background stands; sn--:all building ·,nth a •v:n:lo" THE HEDDRICH, HEDDERIC!-!, HA.DDERICH, HADRICH. L'.MIL Y IN LANGE:sSELBOLD The Heddrich hn-.il\· appe'1rs in the old church boo;c for the first Lme in 1701. On _-\pril Z4, 1701, Michel Eader1ch and !11s wife .-\nn;_, Maria had a daughter Susanna Catharina baptized. Carl Johann Henrich Hadderich (Hedderich) married Elizabeth Roth rn Seibold on January 15, 1705, daughter of a stewart George Roth. Carl Heddrich and his wife Elizabetha born Ermoldt had on May 18, 1713 their first child named Johann Just baptized. Concerning the birthplace of these three Heddrichs the church book of SeJl)old says nothing, but it may b·e assumed they were the same farr.ilv. Unfortunately there 1s no ,ndica tion in the case of Carl Johann and Carl about their parents, but at the marriage of Carl Johann Hennch Hedderich it 1s noted that he was a son of Michael Hedderich who at the time, 1705. was a herdsn,an in Neuen-Hasslau. Neuen Hasslau is on the map about four miles east of Langenselbold. This Michael Hedderich died July Z, 1721 in Seibold; he was at that tirr_e almost seventy years old and must therefore have been born about lo51 or Jj5Z. His son Carl Johann Henrich ·xas a hostler (horse trainer or dealer), Carl was a court bailiff. This in formation about the calling strengthens the belief that Carl and Carl Johann Henrich were broti1ers. At the marriage entry of Car; Johann Henreich it is stated that his father came from Saxony. Apparent]:: Michael emigrated from Saxony between 1695 and 1701. Therefore, Saxony is to be considered as the land of origin of the Hedderichs.

Today there are living still four Hedderich families in Langensel bold. The Railroad Councilor Johannes Hedderich born December 15, 1896 belongs in this family. The emigrant Carl Heddrich who on August 27, 1733 came to Philadelphia on the ship Elizabeth had married Elizabeth Ermoldt. The church book gives better information about the ancestors of Eliza beth. THE FAMILY ERMOLD, ERMOLDT, ERMOLT In Isenburg-Ronneburg, to which Seibold at that time belonged, the Reformation began in 1533. The old church book begins in the year 1563. The second baptism is recorded in the same year: ''A child of Peter Ermoldt named Weigall on the fourteenth of the Winter month. '' Until 1713 Reverand Pies ch was able to extract 84 baptisms which unfortunately cannot be brought into one geneological ensemble in the first decades, because information is too scanty. Yet it is striking how strongly the Ermolds increased at that time in Seibold. As remarked in another place there followed during the thirty-years war a sharp decrease in families. The geneological chart shows that the Ermolds born after this war all trace back to Werner Ermold who was a son of Henreich Ermold, and married Catharina Schuckerdt (Schuchert) on May 28, 1640. As Reverand Piesch mentions, the name lives today under the spelling Schuchardt in Langenselbold. The family name Ermold has died out. Even the oldest inhabitants of the place cannot remember this name. The last entry of Ermold in the book of deaths was in 1794: ''Anna Elizabeth Ermold an unmarried woman 68 years old died March 15, Saturday m the night and was buried on Monday the 17th." Have the Er molds died out? Have they moved away to other places? Have they emigrated? To the last quest10n the ships' lists give an answer. 1. Anthony Ermold, arrival in Philadelphice, Septerrber 7, 1748 age 28. He must therefore have been born in 1720. 2. Johann Georg Ermold, arrival in Philadelphia, Septerrber 23, 1766. 3. Johann Peter Ermold, arrival in Philadelphia, October 22, 1 733. Perhaps this family still lives in the U. S. A. like the Hedderichs. CHURCH RECORDS OF HEDDERICH FAMILY The following research work into the old church records of the cl\urch book in Langenselbold was made by Reverand Hugo Piesch who was so kind as to have prepared photostatic copies from this church ./ .,_ ~~-.·'B:j_;_~ ~·i, iij~~=.. ~ ;Jl. f<".:7 C • ~~4.f~:::-/ . .2.f!--'1 i:;~,21~~~t~~~:=!~ f' ~C- - ~- ·4i!.t._ .;.- I.)J p_J <61 .~I . .

Submitted by, Pastor Piesch 7 IMMIGRATION TO AMERICA VARIA no:-s;s IN THE SPELLING OF THE NAME, AND THE HISTORY OF THE PALATINE IMMIGRANTS The first official census in this country was taken in 1790. At that time v:e find the following spellings of the name: Hedreck, Heddrick, Hedrich, Hedrick, Hederick, Hedricks, Hederic, Heterik, Heterick, Hedrich, Hetrig, Heterish, Hetrich, Hettrich, Hetrech, Heydrich, Heiterich, Heidrich, Hyderick, Hetterich, Heiderich, Heterig, and Hetrick. There were four families in North Carolina, three in Virginia, eleven in Pennsylvania, and six in Maryland. Today there are members of the Hetrick family living in almost all of the forty-eight states. They have made many contributions toward the betterment of this nation. There are several reasons why we find the name spelled so manv different ways. At different times men would spell their names differently and clerks spelled them the way they heard them pronounced. The clerks ·xere English and they could not understand these German immigrants, nor could the Germans understand the clerks. Thus many times a mark was made for the name. Is it any ·.,onder that today so many names are lost to us. The census records were not printed until 150 years after they ·xere ·xritten. By then ink had faded and many names had worn a,1 ay. Although the clerks were expert they often made mistakes in interpretation of the writing. In the early part of the 18th Century Louis XIV of France began his relentless drive on the Lower Palatinate Region in Germany. This ,,·as rich, fertile fruit and farm country of the lower Rhine river valley. His armies were given orders to destroy everything and everyone in their way. Many of the3e Palatinates were able to get out of Germany and fled to England. From there they began their voyage to America. Thousands of Palatinates immigrated to this country during those early years in the 18th Century. A great number of them settled in Pennsylvania. 'Nilliam Penn had offered them land if they '.1·ould come to his state. -,\'hen shiploads of these people came to An1erica, the name of "Palatine" '-,·as applied to all of them which was wrong, as many came from neighboring countries of Gerrnany, Lists of Palatine immigrants and their families were recorded at the Courthouse in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The first mention of tile Hedderich family as far as we know is that of (Goblin) Carl Hetreich. They sailed from Rotterdam, Holland, and from Dover, England. They landed in America August 9 27, 1733 on the Ship Elizabeth, Edward Lee, Captain. Their narres are as follows: 1. Carl Hetreicn Farrrer 40 ,·ears of age 2. Elizabeth Hetreich Wife 42 vears of age 3. John Onst Hetreich Son 20 years of age 4. Wilhelrr Hetreich Son 16 years oi age -· Catrina Hetreich Daughter 8 1 /2 years of age o. Anna Margeret Hetreich Daughter o years of age (d. o. a.) , . John Heinreich Hetre,ch Son 4 years of age Most of the lists were written by a clerk, hence so many spellings as he proba½ly had difficulty in understanding therr. Hence, Coblin ~ Hetreich. Sign was h1s way of writing his narr:e. There we~e three lists passengers had to sign as follows· A. Captain's list B, Signers of Oath C. Signers of the abjuration, which was allegiance to the King of England foreswearing all a:legiance to their own country. Carl signed these lists as the following pictures show, but a clerk making out the list mispelled his name as is noted 111 Colun,n I, under scored. Captains' list, his is last family named. 10 11 THE STORY OF .THE SHIP'S VOYAGE TO AMERICA The Palatinate immigrants who came to America had suffered great religious persecution for many years and were willing to do any thing-t0--0la-av-e--f-reedom. Let us then journey with our ancestor as he leaves his native country. From Langenselbold, Germany they sailed from Heilbronn to Holland. On that trip alone they had to have inspection in 26 custom houses,. Their inspections only took place when it suited the officials. This process tooi< five to six weeks. Things in Holland were very high priced and the delay there ate into their savings. Sometimes those less fortunate than our ancestor used up practically all of their savings before they left Holland. Goblin had put into port at Rotterdam, Holland. Finally when all custom houses were passed through they again boarded a ship and sailed to -Dover England. Let us now take a look at this ship leaving this English port. Pas sengers were packed in like sardines. The food and water were improper and soon all sorts of diseases broke out among the immigrants. Such diseases as typhoid, smallpox, scurvy, and dysentery were the most common. Great numbers of children were the first attacked and died. Goblin's daughter Anna Margaret was a victim of all this misery, and was dead on arrival in Philadelphia. The miseries these families had to put up with would not bear description. It is said that when storms struck and huge waves flowed over the decks many passengers became panicky. At such times it -.--as pitiful to hear the wailing and praying of the passengers. This deplorable voyage often took 12 weeks to reach Philadelphia from England. At that time it all depended 9n the wind how fast a ship could travel. The long- hoped for_ day-finally arrives when they at last reach Philadelphia. Where they able to land O No, a health officer had to visit the ship, If he found any diseases he ordered the ship to go a mile out of port. No captain of a ship dared to violate this ruling or he would be arrested. If this happened he could not be freed until he gave 500 pounds security and be released only on the Governor I s orders. The Governor also had to issue the license for permission to Jet passengers land. Goblin and his family were a little more fortunate on their voyage in one respect. Their captain was not as cruel as many others. In some cases the captains did not adhere to their promises to passen gers. Very often he would cheat them of their money. Then on arrival the fleeced person would be sold into bondage to serve until his ship's passage was paid. These ships were met on arrival by men who paid the passage fare and thus cheap servants were obtained. Thus bonded, a man was not free until his master had been: paid in full for his ships passage. Goblin, as did all immigrants coming to this country, had to bring with him a letter of recommendation from the pastor of his church. This contained the information of why they wanted to come to this country. It also contained the blessing of the home church and gave them the right to participate in church activities in the new country. Many of these people also brought along their family Bibles. There were many hardships and difficulties which Coblin eventu ally overcame to become a successful farmer. This proves that our pioneer ancestor came from sturdy stock. 12 WHERE DID CARL HEDDRICH HETRICK F.-\MILY SETTLE IN U, S. A. ? According to information given by the late Dr, George Hetrick of Birdsboro, Pennsylvania, a great grandson of Georg Henrich Heddrich voungest son of Carl Heddrich, the family settled in what was then known as Plumpton Manor. '.Vhere was Plumpton Manor? It was in the Tulpehocken district which was founded bv the Palatine people from Germany, and made up the first white colony in what is no.,, known as the Valley of Lebanon. This manor was the land that lay west between Reith' s Church and eastward beyond Womelsdorf and on the south almost to where the present iiilliam Penn highway is, and crosses these two lines north and south. Fells Manor ,,·as north of the Tulpehocken and west of Plumpton Manor. It was here that the origionaJ homesteads of the first settlers were located. In his last will dated 1 711, \Villiam Penn left three large tracts or Manors to close relatives. These tracts were known as the Tulphocken region. East of Myerstown lies the •,:estern tract, whose line is close by the Trinity Reformed Church, then extends just a little to the east beyond ,,·here the Mill Creek enters the Tulpehocken River. Then due north in a straight line is Fell's Manor of 10,000 acres. This was .,,-i,led to Gulielma Marie Penn, ·.v11liam 1 s sister. She married a Mr. Fells, and that is -.,hy the Manor bears that name. East cf Fells Manor lies the second tract of land of 5165 acres knov.n as Plun:pton Manor. Williarr, Penn willed this to his daughter, the wife of William Aubrey of London. She had received 10,000 acres bv the will but only took half of it. This took place in 1724. It was on these Manors that the Germans settled by indenture of lease, or release, and handled by Penn's agents in London. These lands were not surveyed until 1733. These Manors were in charge of a court baron, and ,n r:·,any places the yearly rental was the payment of one red rose, on or about June 25th, plus a certain price in English pounds. This was very cheap land, and it is thought that later deeds made similar requests. Even today many of these towns still carry on a very fine culture of roses. All transactions went to Penn's agent in London, John Page. He 1n turn employed agents in America to bargain and sell at the highest prices they could obtain. The settlers had to wait sometimes many vea,s before they became the rightful owners of their lands. Notwithstanding these conditions, they went ahead and built their log cabins along water courses, reared large families, cleared their lands, raised crops, and had a kind of community life. With the hard ships that our ancestors had in establishing homes here in a new land, they also had the ever present menace of the Indians. Yet "·ith all of their trials they developed very fine farms and industries and built highways long before they owned their land. There is a little town in Berks County whose original name was "Hetreichstadle" meaning Hetrick's town. The name was later changed to Obold and then to Pl·easantville. 13 The Descendants of JOHN WILHELM HEDDERICH - HETRICK John \Vilhelm Hetrick was a native of Lang ens el bold, Germany, born 1717 and settled probably in Connecticut in 1750 or 1751. We must remember that a great part of Pennsylvania at that time belonged to Connecticut. Wilhelm had thirteen children, eleven boys and two girls. It has been said that Jacob D. Hetrick who was the grandson of Jacob, one of the eleven sons, had been told by his father that the whole family had served in the Revolutionary War. Ten sons served the Colonies and one daughter was a spy for the Colonies. The elev enth son fought for the British, and the other daughter was a spy for the British. Their names were Adam, Peter, Michael, Francis, George, Thomas, Nicholas, William, Jacob, John, Henry, Lucy, - - - - - name unkno'."n. The material on the Hetrick family is taken in part from the "History of Jefferson County, Her Pioneers and Her People" by McKnight pages 278 to 281, information given by S. H. Whitehall, and pages 633 and 634 of "Commemorative Biographical Record". ADAM - FIRST SON I. .

George - 1755, was a Colonel in the British Army. After the war was over, none of the family would have anything to do with him. At first it was thought he was killed in the war, but he went back to Germany where he amassed a fortune. This was confirmed by an article which appeared in the news paper, "The New York World", on page 3, column 6 for June 3, 1893. It reads as follows: THE HETERICK $70,000, 000, NO MYTH (Special to the World) York, Pennsylvania, June 2 - The report of a $70,000,000 estate in Gerw.any waiting to be distributed among the Hete rick heirs in America, is said to be confirmed by information from one of the Dauphin Cuunty Hetericks who claims to have received confirmation from the United States Consul-General in Berlin.

Jacob, one of the younger sons of Wilhelm, was born in that part of Pennsylvania which at one time was known as Connecticut, in 1761, and while very young came into the wilds of Pennsylvania. This could have been Westmore land County which is now Pennsylvania. When less than sixteen he enlisted for the Revolution, serving in the 8th Company, 7th Battalion, York County Militia; on April 5, 1778. He was commissioned first lieutenant (David Ken nedy Colonel), and served to the end of the war, 1783 (Pennsylvania Archives, 6th Series, Volume II, page 562). Soon after the war he went to Erie County, where he obtained some land appropriated by the Pennsylvania Legis lature to her soldiers. There he married Lydia Shaffer in 1784, and their {irst child, a son Frederick, was born in 1785. They were the parents of thirteen children in all. We have record of nine, but do not know where the other four were born nor their names. All were born before 1809. Seven or eight of them reared families and spent most of their lives in Jefferson County. Jacob came to Jefferson County with his family in about 1818, but the exact date and place of his first location are not certain. Frederick, his eldest son, was assessed in 1820 in Pinecreek Township, which then embraced everything north of Little Sandy, where by act of Assembly in 1826 elections for Perry Township were fixed at his house. This territory was Pinecreek, 1804 to 1817, Perry Township, 1817, Young in 1826, and Rose in 1828. There Jacob died and was buried in 1834, on the farm where he lived, in what is now (since 1851) Oliver Township, at the northeast end of Mauks Tunnel. His tombstone inscription is as fol lows: ''In Memory of Jacob Hetrick. Departed this life December 4, 1834. Aged 73 years, 1 month and 9 days." Stone was transported to the burial site by ox cart some 27 miles. There are two stones there - Jacob's and one of a child of two, named Daniel Bush, buried in 1840. Mounds since discovered and information of local residents indicate that there are about fifty burials there. It is a reserved burial site of the early 19th century and is situated on the corners of four plots of land. In the spring of 1954 a party consisting of Dr. and Mrs. 18 Bernard Hetrick, Mr. &: Mrs. Kenneth crvin (Mrs. Irvin is a descendent of Jacob) and Harry C. Hetrick, and G. H. White- t seL of Punxsutawney, R. D.#5, was formed to seek for Jacob's grave, ,:nown to be near Sprankle. The grave was dis covered about 300' feet east of the Mauk Tunnel r,ear Sprankle. It lies acoout 100 feet south of the Pittsburgh and Shawmut Rallroad. The grave marker ,s ex pertly carved of native stone and although burial took place nearly !20 years go, the stone is in perfect alignment. On Memorial Dav, 1954, through the untiring' efforts of Dr. Ber:-iard Hetrick (great great grandson of Jacob) and be cooperation of E. J. Hal berg, President of the Pitts burgh and Shawmut Railroad, the excurs1on train under aus~ p1ces of National :?.a1lway Histor:cal Society which origi nated in :'v1assilon, Ohio, stopped at this grave. This was the Lrst passenger tra·,n over Pittsburgh and Sha•Nrr.ut s1n~e 1g31, This railroad 1s now used exclusive!\· for freight. When this tra1n stopped at the bur·.al plot honor •.vas paid to this Re·,·olut1onary sold1er. A rrarker was placed at the grave as well as flowers. The flowers were placed by the National Railway Historical Soc ety, and by Elizabeth Ann Hetrick, 9 years old, great-great gre;-it-great granddaughter of Jacob. John C. Hetrick, son of Jacob and grandson of Jacob now living 1n Knox Townsc11p, tells that he and Jacob, his father, made this stone 0,nd set it up. Jacob Hetrick had at \east fiftv grandchiidren who grew up to man hood and worr.anhood and left famicies, mostly in Jefferson County, and eig',t of these chilciren were st1L living in 191&, and gave many of '.he important facts herein recorded. Among them were John C. He1r1ck of Eno:, Township, Jacob ~etrick of Summerville, and John BLtcL of Ridgeway, Pennsylvanca. Following is the record of Jacob 1 s farnily: A. Fredenck - Born 1785, is named 1n a complete list of tax ables made for Jefferson County in i8ZO. along with the names of SuY11n,ers Baldwin, Euphrastus Carrier, Moses r-'.nc1pp and Solomon ?•.1llec all residing in what cs now Clover Townsh,p. His nan•e also appears in the lists of 182';' and 1836. In 1826 he !wed at Coder Dam, just west of Brookv1lle, ·.vhere he was elected road viewer by the coarts of :efferson County. In 1830 he was a candidate for sheri:f l::,ut lost by a vc,te. Soon after this he rr.oved just llI Elizabeth Ann Hetrick wes' of what is now Surnmerville, v:here he was appointed and served several years as justice of the peace. In 1835 he moved to what is now Polk township, where he was assessed among the taxables of Snyder in 1836, and at his house the first election for Polk was fixed by Act of Assem bly in 1851. Frederick and his brother Jacob were well known hunters of wild animals, and kiiled many in Jefferson County. Early on many mornings, one could hear Jacob call his dogs and then sound his hunters horn, calling the men together, that the hunt was on. The animals they killed were wolves, wildcats, bear and deer. The children of Frederick and Elizabeth Doverspike follow: 1. Christian - died young. 2. Elizabeth - married Darius Carner. 3.

He was born April 10, 1832 in Jefferson County where he spent his boyhood and youth and continued to follow lumbering until his marriage in 18 5 5 to Mary A. Darrah. She was born in Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania in 1834; and went to Jefferson County with her parents William and Margaret Darrah, who afterwards went to Illinois where they died. Upon his marriage Mr. Hetrick located in Brookville, Pennsylvania where he served as general manager in the woods for T. K. Litch for about five years; but in 1859 went to Troy, Pennsylvania where he engaged in teaming for one year. The following two years he spent at Mill Creek where he operated a saw mill for Bomb and Carrier and Osburn. He was then in the em ploy of James Humphrey, at Port Barnet, on the same creek for the next three years. In the spring of 186 3 he enlisted at Brookville in Company B, 62nd P. V. I. under Col. Black, and from Pittsburg the regiment went to Ohio to drive Morgan out of the state. On receiving his discharge at Pittsburg he returned to Port Barnet, and then moved to Falls Creek where for five years he served as foreman of the lumber firm of Bomb, Carrier and Osburn. From them he purchased 106 acres of woodland in 186 3, and at once began cl earing and improving his place, which he converted into one of the most de sirable farms of Sandy Township. The land was placed under a high state of cultivation and improved with good and substantial buildings. There he made his home from 1868 until 1900 when he disposed of his farm and moved to Spottsylvania County, Virginia where he died in 190 3.

FAMILY HISTORY OF ELIAS AND MARY UPDEGRAFF Elias Jacob Hetrick was born July 10, 1846 in Northun.berland County, Pennsylvania. He was the son of Jacob, who was the sc,n of John, the son of Peter, son of Wilhelm. Nothing is known of his early childhood, but at fifteen years of age the Civil War had started and on March 28, 1864 he enlisted in Company A, 14th Regiment of Pennsyl vania Company, Pennsylvania Union Army. During the war he was cap tured and put into prison in a dark cellar and was given only wormy bread and water. He became so weak he couldn't walk, but finally managed to escape crawling to a pumpkin patch and ate enough raw pumpkins to gain a little strength, and at last reached home. He married Mary Updegraff, March 1, 1866 in Beaver Township, Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. They were married by Rev. Jacob Kank. Their first child was born in 1867. In 1878 Elias took his family west to Kansas. They first settled in Coffee County where he was em ployed as a foreman on a railroad. Later they moved on west to Staf- 27 ford County Kansas, which became their permanent home. They lived in a sod house, as there wa•s very little wood on the plains. Elias be came quite adept at building sod houses and built several around that section of Kansas in the early days. The prairie sod covered with grass made good material for building houses. It was cut in large pieces and stacked one upon the other to form walls. The floor was just hard pack ed earth and could be swept as any hard wood floor. They had no glass for windows so used coats, comforts or anything that was available; but it was a comfortable home, cool in the hot dry summers and warm in the cold snowy winters. Theirs was a busy pioneer family each doing his share of the work, planting, harvesting, butchering and curing the meats and vegetables for winter. Their home was small and crowded, but a warm welcome was always given neighbors, friends and strangers as well, as was the custom in the early pioneer days. Elias worked hard to support his family until he became too ill and passed away August 5, 1894. Elias and Mary Hetrick's descendents are numerous. They had eleven children, sixty-four grandchildren, and at the present time there ai,e one hundred eighty-two great grandchildren, one hundred fifty-one great-great-grandchildren.

I am going to. record here a few of them hoping that in the future I may come up with some definite proof that they are correct. Wilhelm was supposed to have had two daughters of which nothing is definitely known. Also two stepsons. Mr. Scott Carrier of Summerville, Pennsylvania, still living there at the age of 94, whose mother was of the line of Jacob, son of Wilhelm, has given us the fellowing information. He tells that two of the brothers were on the side of the British. They had a sister Lucy who was on good terms with all of her brothers. The ones on the American side got infor mation from the ones on the British side of a plot to capture General Washington. Her sympathies were with the Colonists. She got to General Washington while he was at dinner and disclosed the plot to capture him and thus saved his freedom and possibly his life. Another sister was a spy for the British. She died in the war. There is no record of her name. The following information comes from Dr. Bernard Hetrick of But ler, Pennsylvania and is authentic. '' My grandfather (John Henry Hetrick) had his farm 3 miles from Du Bois, Pennsylvania which is in Clearfield County. He bought 160 acres of cut over stump land from John E. DuBois and cleared it him self. During the early days of this farm he had to go to Clearfield, Penn sylvania on matters pertaining to the deed. He took their only horse to ride on and their only rifle for protection. He told grandmother, that should a wolf get in a trap he had set, to go for Jack Long, a noted hunter of that day, to kill it. The wolf got in the trap and it was five miles to Mr, Long. She got the butcher knife and went out to look at Mr. Wolf. She took a bean pole and lashed the knife on it with her garter and speared the wolf to death. The history of Clearfield County, Pennsylvania says that John Henry Hetrick was a lifelong Republican and franc good old Revolutionary stock. When he married he could not read or write English. His wife was a school teacher and taught hiw. to do so." The descendents of the eight sons who reared families here are very numerous and settled originally in Pennsylvania but now they are scattered all over the country, many of them in the middle and western states. Descendents of Adam, Peter, Nicholas, and Jacob are mostly in western Pennsylvania, there are many in Jefferson and adjoining counties. Many good things can be said of these pioneers. To record all the good deeds, virtues and traits of this Hetrick family since it came to this country would require much space and time. Suffice it to say, they were courageous pioneers, settling here in the wilderness of America, and many became mighty hunters, clearers of forests and tillers of the soil. Coming from a strong, sturdy stock, they were hard workers, physically capable, and endured many hardships. 39 In the Pennsylvania A~chives it tells that the following Hetricks served in the War of 1812: Christian, Nicholas, Peter and William. RECOLLECTIONS OF J. L. MARSHALL Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania Written About 1925 Some of the hardships of early days proved to be blessings in dis guise. About two years ago the "Courier" published two or three of my letters concerning lumbering industry in the northern part of Jefferson County. I will endeavor not to refer to that but will touch on a few things as I proceed. Back in the sixties, ten years of my boyhood days were spent in the lumbering regions of Wolf Creek, which covered many hun dreds of acres of beautiful pine timber. The boundary lines were as follows: on the west by Beechwoods, south by Falls Creek, east by John DuBois' timber lands and Boones Mountains, north by Jarman Lane· s timber track and McMinn's.Summit. The streams abounded in fish as the water was not polluted by mines and tanneries. Wild game was plenty as the game hunters did not need licenses and there were no restrictions. Quite often a wolf was shot for which the hunter received a nice bounty for the scalp. The people that lived in the community proved to be good Samaritans. They never refused to lend a helping hand in time of need. In my rr.ind I wander around the old homestead. Many a dear familiar spot seems to come to my recollection, I see the old spring at the foot of the hill, with its cool sparkling water; the old mill pond where we caught the beautiful speckled trout; the old swirr.rr.ing hole where we saved a boy from drowning; the old sa\\·mill where we played hide and seek and found some counterfeit rr,oney that rr.ade good sinkers for our fishing 1 lines; great piles of logs down on the landing ·.'.'here I heard someone cal - ing for help. Running over: the ic:e I found Asa Scott lyrng beneath a heavy log that had rolled ':Jack and caught hirr.. I rr.anaged to get a good heavy skid under the log for a pry, then crawled out to the end and came do\\n with all my weight and strength. I managed to release the poor fellow. Under ordinary circumstances this· could not have been done. 1 hen I eras sed over the breast of the old dan, and walied a mile to the home of Jack Long the old time hunter who made rroccasin_s and buckskin gloves from hides that he tanned in his yard. These good people were denied many of the privileges and necessities of life. See therr gather around their aid fashioned Ere place and part2.ke of the comn-on food such as 1.vild meat, rye biscuits and buckwheat cakes. How we would enjoy an other meal with them and then clirr.b up the ladder to the attic and sleep over night. Then wake up in the morning to find our bed covered with snow. Out in the early rr.orning to help hitch up the old horse in the sled and take a grist out to Osborn's old Red Mill, wait all day to get it ground. Again we walk a rr.ile further to the home of Eenry Hetrick over on Clear Run, who is struggling hard to clear his land and raise his family. They likewise have their shar.e of rr,isfortunes, but rr.idst it all thev endeavor to look on the sunny s:de of life. · In the winter of 1867, if my memory serves rr.e right, Mr. Hetrick had a beautiful little girl about the age of i, years, who was taken sick and died. (The child Mr. Marshall refers to was M2.ry May Hetrick born January 16, 1866 - died March 26, 18:>9 --BH). On the day of the funeral the weather was very cold and the snov.' deep, I rerr.err.ber my fat!oer made a hand barrow by nailing strips on two poles, He and a number of men carried this rude stretcher to the home of Mr. Hetrick which v:as about three miles. The Rev, George Senior came from the Beech·.voods or. horse back and preached the sermon. The body was placed on the ':>arrow and carried by these sturdy woodsmen down to Wolf Creek, From 40 'there it was conveyed by sled to the Beechwoods Cemetery, a distance of s .x miles. Some of the friends and neighbors walked there and back. Once again I take a tnp to Mr. Hetrick's. When a boy about 9 years old I had sound teeth and could crack hickory nuts without the use of a hammer. ..\ccidentally I broke a sound double tooth and it began to ache very severely. Now there were two mer. who pulled teeth in that country. They were Kimmie Kyle and Mr. Hetrick. My choice was the latter. Mr. Hetrick was a powerful man, about six feet tall and weighed 200 pounds. On rr.y way I stopped at the house and was told that Mr. Hetrick was about a mile further in the woods skidding logs. Mrs. Hetrick said: ''You had better take the turn keys with you; he can pull your tooth out there." The machine she gave me looked like a big monkey wrench. I traveled op and found my dentist at the skidway with a yoke of oxen. By this time my tooth had almost ceased aching but I managed to state my case. I said, "Can you pull it?" He said, "Yes, just sit down on this log." I did. Then he told Mr. Bothell, his son-in-law to come and hold me down. Without any further preliminaries the work started. The re sult was a sound double tooth came out, the machine having slipped on the wrong one. When the mistake was discovered he insisted on pulling the other one. Juite naturally I rebelled but debating the question for some time, I yielded. This time he jerked out two. Fortunately the second sound double tooth hung on my lip. Then he pushed it into place and brought my jaws together with a crash. Nature did the rest and the tooth is sound after 55 years. The above may seem like a joke to some of my readers, but a word of advice may fit here, especially to parents who have children. They should be n,ade to realize the importance of caring for their teeth. First or all, the parents ;ire responsible and should cooperate with the dentist. In the early days our parents were to be excused as dentists and doctors were very scarce. They did the best they could under the circumstances, applying many home remedies, saving the lives of many children, seldom ever calling a doctor save in extreme cases. These days the home reme dies are lost sight of from the fact that so many families are making home brew instead of home remedies. 41 DESCENDANTS OF NICHOLAS HETRICK AND CHRISTINA TOMES NICHOLAS HETRICK by Reverend Daniel G. Hetrick Folks the man whom we all honor, And whom we acknowledge as our ancestor, Came up from the wide Susquehanna And was married to fair Christianna. He located along the Clover Creek, His home and fortune there to seek. For to him we all trace our name And also some of our small fame. Nicholas Hetrick was his name, He sought not he·re for earthly fame, Clover Creek was his dwelling place There he ended his earthly race, Then to heaven he was glad to go. He left to his heirs an example Of which honesty was a sample. Although not rich in this world's store, Yet he left something far more. For which his children will raise Yearly, a song of grateful praise. In these annual reunions Where we can hold sweet communions. And right here I might stop and say I believe that his home was this way. "Eternal blessings crown rnyearliest friend, And round his dwelling guardian Saints attend! Blest be that spot where cheerful guests retire To pause from toil and trim their evening fire; Blest that adobe where want and pain repair, And every stranger finds a ready chair; Blest be those feasts with simple plenty crowned, With all the ruddy family round Laugh at the jests or pranks, that never fail, Or sigh with pity at some mournful tale; Or press the bashful stranger to his food, And learn the luxury of doing good. " - (Goldsmith) I sing of the Hetrick brothers three, Who lived in this land of the free; Down in the county of Dauphin, They were all left poor orphans; Peter was one of the trio, Who went to the state of Ohio, Philip, who planned and then returned, To where his native hearth-fires burned. Nicholas, lived till his work was done, In the county of Huntingdon. He went out on the Clover Creek, 44 His fortune and home for to seek. Settled near the Burg of renown, Namely,_ the old Williamsburg town. There he lived his free simple life To the end of this earthly strife; From right he did not deviate, But working both early and late He raised a family of Eight, And died in Eighteen forty eight. He was honest in his dealings Thus to his children revealing, Something worthy of unitation By all throughout our land and nation. "Far from the maddening crowd's ignoble strife, His sober wishes ne'er learned to stray, Along the cool sequestered vale of life, He kept the noiseless tenor of his way." - (Gray) He and some generations more, Sleep their last sleep on Clover Creek's Shore In the graveyard of the Lutheran Kirk, By whose side the farmers busily work, It is located near a little town, Known around by the name of Shelly-town. The name of his children I here recall For they are not known to you all. I, therefore, will here stop and tell, Mary Magdalene and Michael Christina and Jacob too, Samuel named like a prophet tone; Followed by George and John Henry And last the youngest Elizabeth. His first- born son was named Michael, Father of my father Michael, And he married Catharine Acker, A daughter of Christian Acker By whom he had children fourteen, Six sons and eight daughters to wean, Mary, Samuel and Christina, John, Michael and Barbara, Elizabeth, Catharine, Sarah. And Christian, William and Leah Followed by Jacob and Susan, For thus the family record ran. Of all this large family alive Susan is the only one survives. The Mother died August thirteen Eighteen hundred and forty-nine. And from this it is high time That I do change my rippling Rhyme, And here begin another song. For he married Maria Whysong, 45 By whom he had three more children Rachael, Dewalt and Benjamin. Then at the age of fifty-three He departed this life to be With loved ones who had gone before o· er the river to the other shore. Among his children, number six, Also named Michael, as prefix; Who married Catharine Greaser, A daughter of Jacob Greaser, By whom were born children eight And whose names I do here relate. David, Matilda, Daniel G., Solomon, Elizabeth, Levi, Isaiah, George. - Rev. Daniel G. Hetrick 46 NICHOLAS HETRICK SETTLE.MENT IN BLAIR COUNTY Nicholas Hetrick, the progenitor of all the Hetricks in Huntingdon, Blair and Bejford Counties, was born in Dauphin County, March 9, 1776. Nicholas was rr:arried to Christina Tomes, who was undoubtedly of Moravian orisin as indicated by the name. She probably was born in York as the family carr.e frorr there. She had one sister who was mar ried to a Shaeffer (the spelling of Shaeffer may not be quite correct). The father of these two girls was killed by Indians, and they with their rr.other carre to "'lair County. The spelling of the name Tomes was in dispute, ',ut in 189'.J it was found that Mr. Martin Hess, of Marklesburg had in his ?OSsession, an old hymn book that was owned by Christina before her rrarrias:e, and t:1is had her narr.e on the fly-leaf, and also contained her farrilv record. She and her husband were of the Lutheran faith. The ~arh· settlers such as :'-iicholas and his wife, came to Clover Creek shortly after the Revolutionary War. Many of them were of the Lutheran faith. They carre over the mountains from Franklin County and Trough Cre_ek Valley and frorr eastern counties by way of the Junio ata River Valley. They brought with them their German Bibles and hyrr.n books u,hich were never failing sources of corr.fort in hours of loneliness and sorrow. The same God-fearing spirit which prevailed in the corrrr.unities from ·,,hich early settlers carr.e prompted them to seek a regular C!i.urch hcrr.e in the nev::y-settled community, Before a church was built, these settlers occasionally arranged ·.v1th a preacher to baptize their children and administer Communion. Young people often had to travel to Baltimore and Sunbury to find a clergyrran to perforrr. their mar- riage. ".\-hen a n-:inister '.vas brought to the corrmunity for a funeral occasion, rrany ministerial acts ·.-.-ere perforrred by h1rr. :C:ventually after many encoun ters with the Indians and other trials and tribulations a church of he\•:n logs, t\1:enty-two feet by t\· enty-six inside durensions '-'-·as built and roofed with clapboards. The ground around the church was then fenced 1n. This was first discussed in 1803 and finally in 1804 steps were rrcade to o::>tain a church property. This was to be for the purpose of "prorr.oting public •.vorsh1p, and the education of the children." Shown here is the Lutheran Churcr at Shell\·to·"·n in Clever Creei. 47 There was also a -plot on the grounds set aside for a cemetery. There Nicholas, his wife, and many of our other ancestors are buried. (Below is a picture of their graves.) ..... Jitll: 'I 17 ,I ,,l ':'''·r, J I H '.,,..; •J ,y ... •Nicholas and his family were consistent and faithful members of this Lutheran Church at Shelleytown in Clover Creek, Pennsylvania. In the new edifice built across the road from the old log structure is a stained glass window in the memory of '.';icholas and his wife. (Following is a picture of this window. ) When Nicholas and his wife came to what is now Blair County, they settled near Williamsburg, Pennsylvania. They were the parents of eight children--five sons and three daughters, Mr. Hetrick was a farmer by occupation. 48 According to a Deed dated April 23, 1849, "whereby the executors of the estate of Nicholas Hetrick late of Woodbury Township, Huntingdon County, (now Blair County since 1846), transferred 91 acres and 20 perches of land to Jacob Hetrick. Nicholas acquired this tract of land from William Moore on January 18, 1814." This is on record at the Blair County Courthouse, Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania. A further exam ination of the Granter Deeds shows that Jacob Hetrick sold the Nicholas Hetrick tract to William Kennedy. A description of this land gives no indication of where the land was located in Woodbury Township, giving the corners as stumps, trees etc., and no mention made of adjacent land owners. According to Mr. Homer Lawfer, one of the older residents of Lower Clover Creek, tells that he can remember hearing his father and mother talking of two families of Kennedys who lived on what was known as the Rocky Dale Foundry Farm. This farm now belongs to John Shultz, Sr. At one time there were two large square houses on this farm, but, only one is still standing. This is the farm where Howard Swartz was raised and adjoins the property where Mr. Lawfer owns. At one time there was a large stone house and another small stone building on this farm up near the mountains. The large house has disappeared, but you can still see some of the ruins of the small building which might have been the original Hetrick home. The above information on this property was given to Mr. Floyd Hoenstine, historian, of Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania by Mr. W.R. Metz of Williamsburg, Pennsylvania.
