7. Evelyn Pfingston Dismore , Information of Evelyn Pfingston Dismore in Correspondence of Bruce Logan (1998), "Electronic," "...after disposing of the Maryland lands they [James and Ann] left the Eastern shore of Maryland and moved west to the Shendoah Valley of Virginia.

In 1754 James Bounds was Constable of Bedford County VA, where his daughter Jane married John Cole. c1761 he was in Anson County North Carolina where he swapped land with his sons James Jr, Jesse, and john Bounds...his son-in-law John Cole and Stephen Cole and their uncle, Mark Cole. James (Sr) died by 1775 and was buried on his own plantation in Anson County NC."
8. Evelyn Pfingston Dismore , Information of Evelyn Pfingston Dismore in Correspondence of Bruce Logan (1998), "Electronic," "The first documented Bounds in America was Marjory's great grandfather, John Bounds (who probably left London aboard the good ship Hopewell bound for the Barbadoes in 1634 at age 20) who with his wife Mary Hiam left Virginia for Maryland c. 1672. John & Mary were members of the Church of England and indeed he was a vestryman and was one of those selected to lay out the boundaries of the Stepney Parish (from whose records much of this information is extracted)."

Marjory is said to have lived with one of her sons in Kentucky about 1817, but she spent her last years at the home of Olive Boone and Nathan Boone as did Daniel Boone and his wife....Marjory was in good health in 1834 in St. Charles County Missouri and is said to have died at Nathan Boone's in Greene County Missouri in 1844 at the age of 104. I suspect that Marjory's actual name was spelled as Majer or perhaps Major. There were several girl relatives named after her....Major/Majer is a rare name for women but is also found in other fmaily groups in early Dorchester and Somerset County of Maryland."

Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 230, was the owner of the Hammer at the Haardt in the Weidenau township in 1444. He was probably a son of a Busch who was part owner of the Haardt iron-works in 1417. The Haardt included both a smelter and a hammer, and in 1417 was jointly owned by Busch and his presumed sister, Else Sel, a widow, both probably children of the founder of the iron-works about 1375. ...The three sons moved from the Haardt to operate the Hammer later known as Buschhuetten in the Bottenbach township just north of Weidenau... It seems probable that the chief home at Buschhuetten, in which the Busch brothers lived, became known from the van Wischel family as the "Flanders" or "Flender" house, and that Busch sons born in the house later adopted or were called by the surname Flender.

66. Lybarger, Donald F., The Crum Family, 1963, Cleveland, Lybarger quotes E. & F. Crum's The Crum Family in America, p. 12: "While the relationship of Anthony Crum, Sr., and Matthias Crum, Sr., has not been definitely established, there is good reason to assume that they were brothers." The Crums cite their origin as "the same part of Germand," a close time of immigration, proximity in Virginia and anglicized spelling of "Crum," as well as tradition. Lybarger goes on to cite Kelby Crum whose fmaily tradition is that the Krums in Germany split, some going to England and naturalizing there before migrating to America. First area of settlement was Media (Delaware) PA. Anthony is said to have settled "in or near Brucetown, about 10 miles northeast of...Frederick." Notes purchase in 1774 of 600 acres at over 1500L, "which means that he must have been very well-to-do financially, as that sum at the time represented enough to purchase the labor of 15 men for eight or nine years."
67. Crum, Edwin W and Crum, Ferris B., The Crum Family in America, 1949, Chicago, Edwin and Ferris Crum refer to a large group of family in eastern Tennessee and make inference that they descend from Nicholas Crum, a German, who settled in Huntingdon Co., PA. No explanation is given, but they point readers to the Biographical Encyclopaedia of the Juniata Valley. Speaking of Anthony and Matthias, they indicate immigration at about 1770, with Anthony coming first to Chester Co., PA then to Frederick Co., VA by 1782. They note the 1782-1785 VA tax records as having 4 Frederick Co. Crum households (white tithables noted; note that none had slaves): Anthony Sr. 4, Henry 4, Anthony Jr. 8, Christian 6. They say Matthias settled eventually in Montgomery Co., VA.
68. Crum, Ferris B., The Crum Family in America, Revised, Oak Park, IL, Crum finds more on Anthony Sr., citing Anthon Krum from Rotterdam on the Edinburgh on Oct. 2, 1753, landing at Philadelphia, listed ad 40 years ol. Says he settled first in Carbon Co., PA, near Mauch Ck., per one branch of the family's tradition. Notes Revolutionary soldiers Christian, Sr., Henry, and John. Christian and Henry were chaplains of a German regiment from Winchester and wer with Washington at Yorktown. He backs off the statement connecting Nicholas to the Tennessee branch of the family.

Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 267, Will in Fauquier Co., dated April 4, 1788, probated Dec. 23, 1795 (W.B. 2, p. 312), Left 10 s. to son John and 5 s. to son-in-law Benjamin Grigsby, the main legatees being wife Wilky, and children Moses, Enoch, Willis, Milly and Lucinda; sons Charles and Moses, exrs. Also had 2 sons who predeceased him, a "Joseph Duncan, son of John," shown in 1785 and 1786 tithables of the Co., and Elias Duncan, who appears for the first time in John Sr.'s family 1788 and last in 1792. Probably same John Duncan who on June 22, 1767 deeded slaves to granddaughters, Elizabeth McCormick, Phoebe Morgan, Alice Morgan, and Rosanna Morgan (all daughters of William Morgan; D.

Perhaps moved to KY, but nothing known of descendants. Author notes info. on John Sr., but does not claim proof that he was father of John Jr. Notes that there is another family of Duncans that are likely not to be the same family in Fauquier Co., but the possibility exists, including another John, Jr. (probably son of Joseph Duncan, Sr., which is probably John Sr.'s brother), and a Joseph Duncan called "Marsh" (to distinguish from Joseph Sr. & Jr.); a Lewis Duncan, and Alexander. there's even another Elizabeth that could be the same as this, but not likely. Very complicated, but well argued in the text.

81. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 216, Was Hebel, wife of Johannes Holtzklau of Weidenau, a Glender of the Schneppenkauten ironworks, probably a younger daughter of Henrich Flender, called Muess, of Schneppenkauten? This is not proved as well as Johannes Holtzklau's descent from Henchen Flender of the Hardt, but the following seems to me to be very good evidence for this conclusion. (1) From the year 1656 to 1671 four of the sons of Johannes and Hebel Holtzklau were admitted to the Guild of Smelterers and Hammersmiths, indicating probable close kinship with the ironworks families fo the Weidenau township. (2) In 1632 Johannes Holtzklau appears as owner of an unspecified part of the Schneppenkauten Hammer-works, right next to Thomas Flender Muess, eldest son of Henrich Flender Muess (A 281). Schneppenkauten was owned entirely by Flenders or Flender descendants, the families of Henrich Flender Muess and his cousin, Johann Flender, owning nearly 2/3 of the works in 1631 and 1632, and the largest part of the rest being owned by the Sprengers, with small shares to other descendants. Of course, the Johannes Holtzklau mentioned may not have been identical with Johannes of Weidenau, but it seems probable, adn that either he or his wife Hebel was a descendant of the Flenders of Schneppenkauten....

117. History and Genealogy of the Utterback Family in America: 1622-1937, The, 19-20, We have seen that between the baptisms of his brother Johannes, (in 1662 at Siegen, Germany), and that of his youngest brother, Henrich (in 1668 at Siegen), occurred the baptism, or, at least, the birth of our Herman who established the Utterback Family in America; and judging from other eventful dates in his life the author has taken the year 1663 to be his birth in lieu of missing Church or family records; however, there is a definite record, (i.e., Aug. 11, 1685), of his marriage to place him in a documentary way among the eight recorded Church entries of his four brothers and four sisters, none of whom came to America unless it might have been his brother Henrich as identical with a John Henrich who is on record as having landed at Philadelphia on Sept. 23, 1734. We have also seen that he married in 1685 to Elsbeth Heimbach and had nine children, all born at Trupbach of Siegerland, Germany. While we do not have definite records to prove our assertions it is the author's opinion that our Founder, together with seven of his children, since wife and two children had previously died, left Trupbach near Siegen, Germany, in the summer of 1713, was in London with his fellow Colonists in the following fall and winter, sailed with his family and landed in America April 1714 and appears through authentic records as a member of the 1720 Germantown Settlement.

He paid the defense tax at Seelbach in 1637, which, again, hardly means that he was over 50, but that he was excused from militia duty for some other reason. His wife was named Elizabeth,k and judging by the fact that two Neusses or Niesses were godparents of her children, it is probable that her maiden name was Niess (a surname springing from the Christian name Dionysius).

Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 176, [Gives his name as Jost; I had elsewhere read "Johann"--d.c.] Perhaps son of "Jost Scheffe" of 1599 and grandson of Henne...the list of associate justices of teh Hain Court shows that he died in July 1666, when quite old, probably at Gosenbach, where he moved after marrying his second wife about 1638. In 1624 and 1626 he paid the defense tax at Seelbach, which would normally indicate that he was over 50 years of age, but this can scarcely be the right inference in view of the date of his death. He must have been excused from military service for some other reason. In 1624 he also paid tax for an apprentice living in his house. On Mar. 20, 1526 Jost Heimbach was appointed one of the associate justices of the Hain Court. By 1638 his first wife had died and he had married (2) the widow of Hans Latsch of Gosenbach, who owned ironworks property and had been an associate justice of the court since 1613. The "Handwerkbuch" of the Guild of Smelterers and Hammersmiths in 1638 permitted him to engage in the iron industry and profit by his wife's property during her life, but only as long as she should live. ...

The second mention of Franz Holtzklau was in 1595, when he was one of the three "elders" or assistant administrative officers of the township of Weidenau. He appears in 1595 in connection with the rebuilding of the chapel at Weidenau, which also served as a school, and again we may speculate that he may have been the teacher, as his grandson...and his great-great-grandon, Jacob Holtzclaw, were all teachers. ...he was certainly dead before 1619 when only his son Wilhelm appears in the village.

130. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 196-9, Careful investigation in all the extant sources have made it certain that all the Holtzklaus who lived at Siegen around 1600 and before were descendants of the master baker, Johann Holtzklau, who appears for the first time in 1558 in the register of the Siegen Baker's Guild; and that in addition, Franz Holtzklau, who settled at Weidenau and is named for the first time there in the special tax of 1583 is to be claimed as Johann's son. Johann Holtzklau, the ancestor of the family, came to Siegen in 1558 through his marriage to Treina, a widow of the master baker, Hans Latsch, who died in 1554; after his marriage he conducted in the "Latschen Haus" the bakery which had been carried on by his predeccessor since 1543, with which was probably connected even at that time (a fact proved in later times) a public house or inn, until 1578, the year of his death.... In the [Siegen city accounts], from 1571 on among the receipts of ground rent...occurs the record: "The Latsch house, now Johan Holtzklaw, 6 Heller." The house, situated in the Lochrstrasse, gave a by-name to those who dwelt in it from time to time; thus Johann Holtzklau was called by the nickname or by-name, Latsch, e.g., in the 1567 list of bakers; and his children were sometimes so-called, as well as his wife's third husband, who occupied the house after his death.... .
131. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 199, According to the special tax list, levied in 1566 for the Empire and for defense against the Turks (Siegener Landesarchiv 22, NHo. 36), "Johann Holtzklau" was assessed in the bakers guild with a tax of 14 Gulden, a sum which, when compared to other bakers, is not to be explained as the tax on a a bakery alone, but points to an additional and not unimportant secondary source of income--as indicated previously, a public house or inn connected with the bakery. In addition to his own tax Johann paid the tax of "Ols Henchin's children" as their chief guardian, along with their associate guardian, Hans Sutell. The Siegen citizen, Henchin Ohl, came from Klafeld to Siegen in 1542/3. He had married "Beckers Aennchen" (i.e., Anna Becker), and from 1542 on managed in his own name the bakery which she had brought to him in marriage; in the lists of the members of the Bakers Guild he is called "Henchen of Clafelt" 1543 ff., from 1544 on "Henchen Ole of Clavelt," and from 1559 "Henschen Ole." His name is missing in 1567. Without doubt he was the father of Johann Holtzklau's wards, having died 1565/6. His successor in the Siegen Bakers Guild was Hans Ahl (Ohl) of Weidenau, a son of Henrich Ahl (Ohl), who lived ad Weidenau and died there between 1563 and 1566 (H. Boettger "Auf den Huetten," pp. 24/25, 28, 34). Through his position as chief guardian of Henchin Ohl's orphan children, according to the rules prevalent at that time regarding the apopintment of guardians, Johann Holtzklau was probably an uncle of the children on their father's side. The view is to be accepted, then, that his first wife, who died before 1558, was born an Ohl of Klafeld and that as a married couple they lived at Klafeld or Weidenau... .
132. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 200, Hans Stuell of Klafeld was probably fellow-guardian of Henchen Ohl's children...and the American utterbacks seem to be descended from him.... It looks as though Henchin Ohl of Siegen, "Olschen Hans" of Klafeld, Henrich Ahl of Weidenau, the first wife of Johann Holtzklau, and possibly Hilla, wife of Hans Stuell of Klafeld, may all ahve been brothers and sisters, possibly children of Tillman Oel of Weidenau (or Hans Ohl of Klafeld of the 1528 record, if the latter was not identical with "Olschen Hans" of 1563).
133. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 212-213, The origin of the family is from the very ancient parish of Holtzklau, first mentioned in 1089, with a parish church dating back to the 13th century in the central village of Oberholzklau, and a number of other villages in teh parish, including Niederholzklau. There is a brook called the Klav...which runs through the parish, sot aht the name means "the woods of the Klav." ...Holzklau has always been an almost exclusively agricultural parish. The case is different with Weidenau, and to some extent Klafeld....Besides the old farming village of Weidenau, when our ancestors lived there, the township (Gemeinde) contained seven iron-works settlements as well, Hardt, Muenkershuetten, Muesenershutten, Meinhardt, Schneppenkauten, Fiskenhuetten and Buschgotthardshuetten. Through marriages in the third and fourth generations of the pedigree given above, the Holzklaus of Weidenau became connected with the ironworks people there, particularly in the family of Johannes Holzklau of Weidenau, Jacob Holtzclaw's grandfather.
134. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 213, Was Johannes Holtzklau of Weidenau the son of Wilhelm of Weidenau, or was he perhaps a Siegen Holtzklau, who moved to the quieter area of Weidenau during the Catholic persecutions 1626-1632, which were particularly severe at Siegen?
135. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 222, In 1631...Johannes Holtzklau was teacher at Weidenau, and he probably continued to hold this position at least rhough the year 1635, while the Protestants dominated the country. In 1632 he seems to have owned a small part of the Schneppenkauten Hammer in Weidenau township, but had sold whatever interest he had in it by 1653, the year of the next extant list of owners. At the christening of his son Johann in 1640...is called "Vespillo", which in old German-Latin means a letter carrier.

Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 214, Was the wife of Wilhelm Holtzklau of Weidenau a daghter of Henchen Flender of the Hardt ironworks? This is not absolutely proved, but there is very good evidence for it, mentioned in the Flender genealogy (pp.204-5). Henchen Flender of the Hardt (in the Weidenau township) in 1591 contracted a debt of 100 Gulden to the Siegen hospital on property that he owned. By 1607 he had paid back half this debt, but from 1611 to 1651 the remaining indebtedness was carried in his name, though he was born ca. 1555 and had died before 1624. In 1652 the accounts show this indebtedness as follows: "now Johannes Holtzklau," indicating that Holtzklau had received the property in the final distribution of Henchen Flender's estate. The Johannes Holtzklau mentioned seems almost certainly to have been Johannes of Weidenau, who had inherited the property from his grandfather, Henchen Flender.
138. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 220-1, In the special tax of 1619/20 he was the only Holtzklau at Weidenau and paid a tax of 2 Gulden. The Treasury Accounts show that he paid a defense tax of 3 Albus at Weidenau in 1624, 1626, 1628, and 1629. These records show that he was occupying only half a house in the village...and that (unless excused from the militia for some other reason) he was over 50 years of age...As in the case of his father, Franz Holtzklau; it is interesting to speculate whether Wilhelm was a teacher... If so, he lost his position in 1626. In that year, during the dominance of the Catholics in the Thirty Years War, ...Count John the Younger issued an edict ousting all Protestant pastors and teachers from the churches and school. In addition to Johannes Holtzklau, it is possible that wilhelm Holtzclau had a younger son, Wilhelm. In 1637 Wilhelm Holtzklau is shown as a member of the militia at Weidenau...

190. History and Genealogy of the Utterback Family in America: 1622-1937, The, 9, Here, in Germantown, the oldest settlement in Faugquier Co., known in 1720 as the western part of Prince William Co., Va., we note the definite appearance of our Founder [Herman] who may have come to America in company with the Pastor of the Colony, Rev. Henry Hager, on a later voyage than that of 1714; however, it is the author's opinion that he came with the colony in 1714, but, being a widower, he made his home with one of his sons-in-law who could legally represent him in court for right to enter land just as may be explained why Rev. Hager's name did not appear in the Spotsylvania court records of 1724. While our Herman left no WILL that can be found, neither any date of his death, yet he is mentioned as living in Germantown by the intinerant Moravian Missionaries in their Diaries of 1748 in which they write concerning the inhabitants as those who "lived quietly and are nice people." This report that our Herman was living there in 1748 at the age of 85 was verified by his great-grandson, Rev. James Kemper (1753-1854), as grandson of John and Alice Kathrina (Utterback) Kemper.
191. History and Genealogy of the Utterback Family in America: 1622-1937, The, 14, The Church records show that these parents [Johannes and Anna] presented the following eight children for baptism, which, according tot he custom of the Reformed Church, was performed in very early infancy; however, our Founder's name [Herman] does not appear among those baptismal records, yet, aside from documentary proof through his marriage certificate, we feel sure of our Founder's place in this family of Johannes & Anna Otterbach of Trupbach from the following quotation of Dr. Lothar Irle, an expert genealogist and abastractor of the old records at Siegen, Germany, where he now lives: 'Between these two baptisms, (i.e., those of Johannes, Jr., of 1662 and of Henrich of 1668), we may suppose the baptism, or, at least, the birth occurred for your Hermann Otterbach who married Elsbeth Heimbach in 1685.'.
192. B. C. Holtzclaw, Ancestry and Descendants of the Nassau-Siegen Immigrants to Virginia 1714-1750, (Germanna Record, No. Five, pub. by The Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia, 1964.), 482, "was a 'Fuhrmann' (carrier or carter), who transported goods and traded in them. They werer the most important middle-men for the export of the iron products of Nassau-Siegen." Family emigrated to Virginia in 1714, but Hermann, wife, and two sons all seem to have died early in VA (perhaps before the group moved to Germantown ca. 1719). "The Utterbach genealogy is in error in tracing the Utterbacks in this country back to Hermann's sons, John Philip and John Utterback, for all the Utterbacks in Virginia descend from Hermann's nephew and great-nephew, both named Johann Henrich Otterbach, who came over in 1734."

194. History and Genealogy of the Utterback Family in America: 1622-1937, The, 13, From the family records now on file in the vaults of the St. Nicolai Reformed Church at Siegen, Germany, we find that the earliest and most immediate ancestry of our Founder [Herman] consisted of three brothers--Hermann Otterbach (b. abt. 1620), Johann Otterbach (b. abt. 1621), and Johannes Otterbach (b. 1622, the oldest certified record), the last being the father of our Herman Utterback (Hermann Otterbach), but neither he nor his two brothers were among the 1714 emigrants from the "Vaterland" because of their advanced ages adn because of the death of the Founder's father which occurred eight years before. [says later that the reason for his birth being the earliest record is the 30-years War].

218. Krefeld Immigrants and their Descendants (Collection of Anne Lutz), 1990:3, In "The Settlement of Germantown," from Samuel W. Pennypacker's book of the same name (1899): "Kriegsheim, October 12, 1685, having crossed the sea in the "Francis and Dorothy" there arrived in Germantown Peter Schumacher with his son Peter, his daughters Mary, Frances and Gertrude, and his cousin Sarah; Gerhard Hendricks with his wife Mary, his daughter Sarah and his servant Heinrich Frey, the last named from altheim in Alsace. Peter Schumacher, an early Quaker convert from the Mennonites is the first person definitely ascertained to have come from Kriegsheim. Fortunately we know under what auspices he arrived. By an agreement with Dirck Sipman, of Crefeld, dated august 16th, 1685, he was to proceed with the first good wind to Pennsylvania, and there received two hundred acres from Hermann Op den Graeff, on which he should erect a dwelling, and for which he should pay a rent of two rix dollars a year."

249. Krefeld Immigrants and their Descendants (Collection of Anne Lutz), 1990:4, In "The Settlement of Germantown," from Samuel W. Pennypacker's book of the same name (1899): "Other emigrants ere long began to appear in the little town....David Scherkes, perhaps from Muhlheim on the Ruhr, and Walter Seimens and Isaac Jacobs Van Bebber, both from Crefeld, were in Germantown Nov. 8th, 1684. Van Bebber was a son of Jacob Isaacs Van Bebber and was followed here a few years later, 1687, by his father, and brother Matthias.
250. "Draper Manuscript S09," quoted by Dick Walker in Correspondence of Bruce Logan (LDS Micro. Roll 0889195), 92-93, "Jacob Van Bibber, with his brother Tice, after a bear that had been killed, and had the bear on the horse returning home, and were way laid by three Indians--shot and wounded Tice across the forehead, and knocked him down senseless, and while chasing Jacob and captured him threw the bear off the horse, and went off--Tice meanwhile recovered from the stunning effect of his wound, got up and got behind a tree, and could have shot and killed one of the Indians, but refrained from doing so, lest they should kill his captured brother. He was kept eleven months, when he escaped, and after 7 days struck the Ohio at Belleville--and happened to be a canoe on the river with several persons in it, men, women and he hailed them telling them who he was--and though some of them knew of his captivity, at the dread of a decoy, led the women to be timid--yet at length, they went over, and took him to Belleville--and thence got home. He married Sarah Miller, daughter of the preceding John Miller--and moved several years after the War of 1812 to the region where the Boones lived in Missouri--probably Loutre Lick. Lived several years in Greenup Co., KY and went out from there to relief at Ft. Hays."
251. "Draper Manuscript S09," quoted by Dick Walker in Correspondence of Bruce Logan (LDS Micro. Roll 0889195), 93-94, "Jacob Van Bibber used to relate to my informants, that the Indians soon after they took him to their towns, concluded to try his disposition and test it--and sent him with a kettle to the spring for some water, and when he returned with it filled, they would throw it out, and send him again--and that kept him going and returning, only to have the water thrown away--but he seemed to care nothing about it, but kept on good nature by whistling. He became very much attached to his Indian mother, and she to him, and where the Indians would get into a drinking spree, she would hide him by covering bark over him till they would get sober, and danger was passed. He hid away food a little at a time till he got enough to venture to run away--and had often sent him after horses and he succeeded so well, and they had so much confidence in him, they sent him again after horses, when he got his small supply of provisions, and started in the direction of the mouth of the Kanawha, as the Indians informed him when he had previously asked them. He was of small size but very active and supple."

253. Krefeld Immigrants and their Descendants, 1990:7, In "The Settlement of Germantown," from Samuel W. Pennypacker's book of the same name (1899): The Van Bebber were undoubtedly men of standing, ability, enterprise and means. The father, Jacob Isaac moved into Philadelphia before 1698, being described as a merchant in High Street, and died there before 1711. Matthias...made a trip to Holland in 1701...and returned to Philadelphia before Apruil 13th , 1702. He remained in that city until 1704, when he and his elder brother, Isaac Jacob, accompanied by Reynier Hermanns Van Burklow, a son-in-law of Peter Schumacher, and possibly others, removed to Bohemia Manor, Cecil County, Maryland. There he was a justice of the peace, and is described in the deeds as a merchant and a gentleman. Their descendants, like many others, soon fell away from the simple habits and strict creed of their fathers; the Van Beebers of Maryland have been distinguished in all the wars and at the bar; and at the Falls of the Kanawha, Van Bebber's rock, a crag jetting out at a great height over the river, still preserves the memory and recalls the exploits of one of the most daring Indian fighters in Western Virginia.
