General Notes: 
E-mail from Keith A. Dull, 11 Jul 2001 and Jul 2002:

Sometime in the 1790s, John, Daniel, and William all moved to Baltimore County, North Hundred, near the town of Ruhl, Maryland.

The 1810 US Census says John was in Mine Run Hundred, but the census taker was not doing a good job that year. They were close to the border of North and Mine Run.

Adam Schmidt had a farm in North Hundred as did Georg Ruhl, who appears in Mine Run in 1810. Daniel Lightfoot resided in Baltimore County, North Hundred, Maryland in about 1797 until 1800 when he moved to Codorus Township, York County, Pennsylvania. In 1807, he moved to Monaghan Township, York County, (the portion that is now Carroll Township), Pennsylvania. He appears on the Poor Lists of Monaghan Township from 1824 to 1831. He also appears on the 1828 Poor List of nearby Franklin Township presumably in an attempt to collect twice. He also lied about the ages of his children in order to continue collecting relief for them (York County provided relief for children between 4 and 12). Chaterina died in York County between 1830 and 1834. In the Fall of 1834, Daniel moved his family to Wayne County, Greene Township, Ohio. He appeared on the 1840 census there, and died before 1850.
----------------------------------------

Daniel Lightfoot was an insolvent debtor in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania and was serving time for debt in the Cumberland County jail on November 4, 1822. He had a hearing for relief on December 10, 1822. It is a 6 page document that includes his signature. The handwriting on the original documents is difficult to read but to the best of my ability are translated below.

Email from Keith Dull 27 Aug 2015:

Daniel also appears to have served a term in the army. I found an enlistment record for him on Ancestry.com dated 1807. They shipped him off to New Orleans, but I can't tell if he served out the entire term of his enlistment. He wasn't noted on musters after 1807, and he was back in Pennsylvania by 1810. He must have enlisted in Northern Baltimore County, although it does not say it in the record. The man who enlisted him was Ninian Pinkney, who was stationed in northern Baltimore at the time he enlisted Daniel.

Interestingly, Pinkney witnessed a land grant for Thomas Sparks. Thomas Sparks was the brother of the Francis Sparks I mentioned in my last e-mail. I have been continuing my research into a possible Sparks connection. I have since discovered that Francis Sparks daughter, Penelope, appears to have died young, however Thomas Sparks daughter, Penelope did not. Thomas Sparks was enumerated beside John Lightfoot in Baltimore County, Mine Run Hundred, Maryland in 1810. There seems to be an increasingly good chance that Perneleper/Penelope Lightfoot was illegitimate, but of course I'm still digging for more information.

1 Female 15-19..(probably Susanna Arnsberger, wife of Daniel Jr, age 17)
5 total in household

Assigning names to the numbers in this household is difficult. The first question to ask is exactly who was named as the Head of the Household. The census record shows "Daniel Lightfoot" but that does not tell up which one of the Daniels it was. There was the Daniel born in 1768 and his son, Daniel, born in 1811. They were probably living together at the time of this census. The elderly Daniel was widowed and the younger Daniel was married but with no children at the time. My best guess is that the elderly Daniel was named as the Head of the Household which means not only was the married Daniel living there with his wife but then the other numbers on the census record represented some of the unmarried children of the elderly Daniel were also living there.

The one young female aged between 15 and 20 could have been any one of three possibilities that fit that age group: Catharine (age 19), a daughter of the elderly Daniel; Susannah (age 17), the wife of the younger Daniel Jr; or Charlotte (age about 15), a daughter of the elderly Daniel. Most likely it was Susannah, the wife of Daniel Jr. The other daughters were either married or living elsewhere.

There was another young daughter of the elderly Daniel named Martha (age 5) but the census record shows no count for any females younger than 15. I cannot explain where Martha was at the time because she was later married in 1848. Perhaps it was just an error by the enumerator or else she was living elsewhere.

Another daughter of the elderly Daniel, Sophia, was about 37 years old and did not marry until later that year in 1840. She may have been indentured out or living as a servant with another family therefore is not listed with this family.

However, my feelings are that within this household were Daniel Jr. and his new wife, Susanna Arnsberger who would have been the one and only female shown on the census. Together the young Daniel and his wife were living with and caring for the elderly Daniel. This is supported by the fact that Susannah was most likely not present with her family according to the 1840 US Census for her father's household because it shows no females present in Susannah's age category which means she was most likely living with her husband at his family's household.

If the elderly male were Daniel, and two of the others were Daniel Jr and his wife, then that would account for 3 of the 5 persons in the household leaving only 2 other males, no doubt brothers of Daniel Jr.

Daniel Jr was one of the two males in the 20 to 30 age group. The other one would have been either John (age 25) or Samuel (age 23). Samuel was probably living with his master as he was indentured out to become a wagon maker so the other male was most likely John.

I'm not aware of any young Lightfoot males that fit the 15 to 19 age group; William was the youngest but it is believed that he was born in 1819 thus making his age about 21. So unless this is a previously unknown brother, I am unable to determine exactly who the young male could have been. William could have been mistakenly counted in the 15-20 group when he should have been in the 20-30 age group but because there are no other records for William. He had either died, moved away to be on his own, or was indentured out and living with his master.

Daniel married Caterina Salome Schmidt, daughter of Adam Gaedel Schmidt and Catherina Salome Dubs. Caterina was born about 1779 in Manheim Township, York, Pennsylvania, United States and died between 1830 and 1834 in Monaghan Township, York, Pennsylvania, United States.

1 Male under 5..(unknown, probably a son of Esther)

2 Females 30-40..Esther Lightfoot..Head..(age 39); probably a sister either Annie or Sophia)

3 Total in household

NOTE - This census shows Esther Lightfoot as head of household with 1 male under 5, and 2 females 30-40 years old, which most likely included one of her sisters, either Annie or Sophia. Annie was recently widowed in 1832 and her 2 children were about 20 years old and probably living on their own. Her other sister, Sophia, would be married later in 1840.

The interesting point is the inclusion of the "1 male under 5". Later in the 1850 Census, Esther is living with her sister Catharine and her husband, Luke Corker. That 1850 census shows a young male, age 12, with the name of John W. (B)ook (the handwriting is not clear about the first letter in the last name). I believe that this John W. may have been an illegitimate son of Esther's which is why she lived separately from the Lightfoot family household. It is not clear what happened to Esther when Luke and Catherine moved to Cedar County, Iowa sometime between 1850 and 1870. I can find no record of her in Cedar County so I believed that she may have stayed in Ohio.

6. Obituary: Unknown newspaper, January 1900, Wayne, Ohio, United States. The Wayne County public library has an excellent Genealogy Department which holds a surname folder for the name LIGHTFOOT. Inside this folder can be found a Family Group Sheet #1-11-4A & B which has many facts of the Samuel Lightfoot family. The name of the compiler for this sheet was left blank. The following information appears on a handwritten piece of paper inside of the Lightfoot Surname and appears to be a draft copy of the final obituary which follows.

Orville, Feb 1, 1900
Samuel Lightfoot, an aged and highly esteemed citizen of Orrville, died suddenly at 1 AM Wednesday. He arose to get a drink of water and while in the act of drinking, fell over and expired in a few minutes.

Irvin McClarran and wife were called to Orrville by the death of Samuel Lightfoot, father of Mrs. McClarran.

Samuel Lightfoot, one of our most worthy and respected citizens passed away on January 24, 1900, aged 82 years, 6 months, and 27 days.

Mr. Lightfoot was born in York County, Pennsylvania, June 28, 1817. In the fall of 1834, the elder Lightfoot's family, less the mother who had died several years prior, removed to Wayne County, Ohio, locating in the neighborhood of what was then known as the Stibbs factory, where Mr. Lightfoot served his apprenticeship as a carriage and wagon maker.

After which time he traveled extensively through the south and west during slavery days, taking a position at his trade for a period of 3 to 6 months while at the same time observing the conditions of slave masters and sentiment on slavery which even at that time caused extreme sectional feeling. He continued in his travels as far south as New Orleans, not in a Pullman Palace car but by flat boat, stage coach, and on foot, covering a period of about 2 years.

33. Caterina Salome Schmidt, daughter of Adam Gaedel Schmidt and Catherina Salome Dubs, was born about 1779 in Manheim Township, York, Pennsylvania, United States and died between 1830 and 1834 in Monaghan Township, York, Pennsylvania, United States.

Caterina married Daniel Lightfoot, son of William Lightfoot ⁷⁶² and Sarah S. Stewart. Daniel was born in 1768 in North Farnham Parish, Richmond, Virginia, British Colonial America, was baptized on 20 February 1768 in North Farnham Parish, Richmond, Virginia, British Colonial America,⁴⁶⁰ and died on an unknown date in Wayne, Ohio, United States.

34. Daniel Arnsberger,^{384 385 386 387 388} son of George Henry Arnsberger and Catharina, was born on 12 December 1794 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States^{386 388} and died on 6 September 1879 in Springfield Township, Williams, Ohio, United States,³⁸⁸ at age 84. Another name for Daniel was Daniel Ernsberger.³⁸⁹

Burial Notes: Daniel and his wife, Elizabeth, share one common gravestone in Boynton Cemetery that is a column monument of gray marble approximately 12 inches square and 48 inches tall. At the base, the name ARNSBERGER is carved in relief. Two opposing sides are inscribed "Father and Mother, At Rest". Daniel's inscription appears on a third side that reads "Daniel Arnsberger, 1794 - 1879, 85y".

General Notes: 
SPRINGFIELD TOWNSHIP, Williams County, Ohio:
Daniel brought his family to Wayne County about 1820, and there farmed in the forest, on shares, until 1844 or 1845, when he came to this township, bought eighty acres of partially improved land and farmed till his death, 6 Sep 1879, at the age of eighty-four, his wife following ten days later in her eighty-first year. Both were members of the Baptist Church, and he served for several years as Township Trustee.
----------------------------------------

Application for Letters of Administration filed in Probate Court, Williams County, Ohio on January 5, 1880 list the following children of Daniel Arnsberger: Jacob, Christian, Michael, William, David, Sarah, Rebecca, and Susannah.

Letters of Administration for the Probate of the estate of Daniel Arnsbarger filed in Williams County, Ohio on 5 Jan 1880.

There are several thing that caught my attention when looking over this document. First of all, at least for me, it shows proof positive that the Susannah Arnsberger who married Daniel Lightfoot was a daughter of Daniel Arnsberger and not Jacob Arnsberger. There apparently has been some confusion over this fact in that one or more researchers erroneously list her father as Jacob Arnsberger and this mistake gets copied over and over again by others.

The next thing that caught my attention was the fact that it states that Daniel Arnsberger died with "no widow". I believe that since his wife, Elizabeth Shade, died only 8 days after him, by the time the probate papers were filed and perfected by the court, it was considered that for purposes of his estate, he had "no widow".

Most of Daniel's children are listed here. Missing are the names of Anna, Mariah who previously died in 1860, and Elizabeth who previously died in 1868. Equally strange is the line that lists "John W. Shaffer's heirs, sons and daughters". I have no idea what significance this can be.

But the most mind boggling line is the one that lists "Harry and Lee Shaffer" as minor children of the deceased. He was 84 years old when he died; how could he father minor children? Administrator of the estate appears to be William Sheridan, Jr.
----------------------------------------

(Source: Message from Phyllis Storey-Harrison regarding letter written by Michael Arnsberger, of which Phyllis has the letter in her possession.)

"This is interesting. In the 1866 letter he is answering a question of his parents ages. His father would be 72 on 12 Dec 1866 and his mother 69 on 17 Nov 1866. That would be Susannah's parents too which would make his father born in 1794 and mother in 1797. In one of my mother's records she shows Elizabeth Arnsberger mother of Susannah Lightfoot death date as 1 Oct 1874."

35. Elizabeth Shade,^{385 386 387 389 390} daughter of Sebastian Schade and Elizabeth Chambers, was born on 17 November 1798 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States³⁹⁰ and died on 14 September 1879 in Williams, Ohio, United States,³⁹⁰ at age 80.

Burial Notes: Daniel and his wife, Elizabeth, share one common gravestone in Boynton Cemetery that is a column monument of gray marble approximately 12 inches square and 48 inches tall. At the base, the name ARNSBERGER is carved in relief. Two opposing sides are inscribed "Father and Mother, At Rest". Elizabeth's inscription appears on a third side that reads "Elizabeth Arnsberger, 1798 - 1879, 81y".

Find A Grave Memorial #53302823

General Notes: 
I give great thought to the possibility that this Elizabeth Shade was born to a previous wife of Sebastian Shade, namely Maria Ohmenseller, as many other researchers show that Maria borne a daughter named Elizabeth. It seems unlikely that following the death of Maria and Sebastian's remarriage to Elizabeth Chambers that he would name another daughter Elizabeth.

There is also the possibility that this Elizabeth Shade that married Daniel Arnsberger was from a different family other than Sebastian Shade because many researchers show a marriage between that Elizabeth and William Tipton in 1801. If this were true, then I do not know the correct name of Elizabeth's parents and the names of Sebastian Shade and all his ancestors and descendants do not belong in my family line.
------------------------------------------

[Brøderbund WFT Vol. 5, Ed. 1]
Last name should probably be Schade, like her father, Sebastian Schade.
----------------------------------------

(Source: Message from Phyllis Storey-Harrison regarding letter written by Michael Arnsberger, of which Phyllis has the letter in her possession.)

"This is interesting. In the 1866 letter he is answering a question of his parents ages. His father would be 72 on 12 Dec 1866 and his mother 69 on 17 Nov 1866. That would be Susannah's parents too which would make his father born in 1794 and mother in 1797. In one of my mother's records she shows Elizabeth Arnsberger mother of Susannah Lightfoot death date as 1 October 1874."

NOTE - Elizabeth's gravestone is clearly engraved with the birth year of 1798. Even though this letter from her son, Michael, provides a birth year of 1797, I am going to stick with the year 1798 until other evidence shows otherwise.

Andrew and Hannah had left the farm and were living in Sonora, Ohio by 1857. When Hannah died there were only 2 sons living in Muskingum County, Ohio; Jacob had moved to Illinois and the 5 youngest children to Iowa (although census records show Tamar not there until about 1869).

----------------------------------------

From Mary Kiddo's Book:
Andrew, third son and fifth child of Jacob and Catharine Darner, namesake of his uncle, was born at his parents' home in the Middletown Valley. He was taught to read and write at school and learned farming with his father. He married 16-year-old Hannah Yost at Christmas season when he was 24 years of age. Hannah was the only child of Ludwick Yost and his second wife Anna Maria (Everhart) of Middletown Valley. Her father had died when she was an infant and her stepbrother John Yost was her guardian. Her mother remarried within several years and Hannah's new stepfather was then appointed her guardian. Andrew and Hannah remained in the Middletown Valley for the first two years of their marriage, during which time John Yost died.

Andrew Darner received a $100 advancement from his father, and he and Hannah moved to Ohio in 1810. On 1 June 1811 he paid a deposit at Zanesville to show his intention to enter the northeast quarter of section two, township one, range six, of the un-appropriated US Government Military Lands. Although he stated his residence as Muskingum County at that time, reference to his being in Columbia County is suggested by a War of 1812 Ohio Militia list.

Receiving the patent on his 166-acre tract in Muskingum County in 1813, Andrew and Hannah established their homestead in Perry Township. The following year he jointly entered a second 160-acre tract in the same township, assigning part of the patent to his brother Jacob. The brothers sold their half of the tract in 1821 to Hannah's stepbrother Jacob Baker of Frederick County, Maryland, and Andrew conveyed the remainder in 1825. As a director of the sixth school district in Perry Township in 1827, he accepted a deed for 1/4 acre of his brother's land on which to build a school. He quit claimed to Jacob Baker his share in his mother's portion of the Maryland homestead. Eighteen years after his father's death, Andrew accepted a mortgage on the remaining 82 acres of Darner patent land in Salem Township then owned by his nephew David Keller of Frederick County, Maryland.

Later in life Andrew and Hannah Darner left the farming of the homestead to their son Joseph and moved into a house in the town of Sonora. In 1857, when Andrew was about 74 years of age, he drew up his will. Devising to Hannah their Sonora house, lot and two other lots in the town, Andrew specified that the home farm be sold within six months after his death, which occurred six years later. His co-executors, sons Isaac and Joseph, completed the sale of the Darner homestead for $3700 in 1870, distributing the proceeds to the nine surviving children and two grandchildren.

Hannah remained in Sonora and died within her ninth decade, with only two sons staying in Muskingum County, Ohio. The rest of the family moved farther west: Jacob to Illinois and the five youngest children to Iowa.

General Notes: 
30 Aug 2003, from Rob Westphal:
Got a reply from the old lady in County Fermamagh I told you about... in her records, she found a Patrick, Andrew, and a Hugh Drugan - burial records... says "Patrick was the father of Andrew, and Hugh was one of Andrew's sons who died at birth." We might have Andrew Drugan's father here... (another damn Patrick ?)

Also, she's indicated that Mary Locherin's name should be spelled LOUGHRAN (pronounced Loke'-raan when said with a heavy, drunken Irish accent : -) )... she said the Loughran's were a well-to-do family in southern Tyrone - land owners. Said the Coyle's were peasants and lived primarily up in Dungannon Parish.

Another name for Lars was Lars Syversen Austun Almenningan.

General Notes: 
(Source: From Mona Stolpe (Skotterud, Norway) to Robert Westphal, Jr., 2003)

"He shared the Austun farm with his brother Hans Syversen about 1820. Lars Syversen was an authorized musician. Lars and Daniel Hoffas received a license in 1815 from City Musician Fredrik Christian Groth in Christiana (now Oslo), which earned them the right to play at weddings and other parties in Vinger Parish (Eidskog belonged to Vinger Parish at the time).

It was Lars who received the most commitments from the buying of the land on Almenninga in 1836. Lars was a big farmer at Vestmarka. He owned Tangen, Klanderud, Ostplassen, Nestun / Nystun on Rambol and Nystun Almenninga.

"I (signed Lars) Lars Syversen Almindingen, do with this, testify, given my daughter Marthe Larsdatter Almindingen, my part of Almindingen, as both her mother's and father's inherit, against that, as good as she can, take care of me as long as I live, and after my death give me a Christian burial. My other belongings I will keep as long as I live, and after, they will belong to the same daughter."

In 1841, the Tangen farm was sold on auction to executive officer Lie, who transferred the farm to Hans Larsen Almenningen in 1843. In 1847, Lars Syversen Almenningen Tangen, bought this farm, and in 1853 he gave it to his son-in-law, Syver Hansen.

I have been told that, when one of the owners of Tangen could no longer keep it, he moved to a home in Djupdalsmyra. It is possible that this person is one of Ole Eriksen's children.

When this family emigrated to the USA in 1867, the farm was sold at auction to Hakon Syversen Oiseth for 900 speciedaler (an old currency). The heir / heiress after Hakon Oiseth, sold Tangen for 700 Kroner to Syver Hakonsen Almenningen in 1887.

Today, Arne Vangen is living in Nystun. He is a farmer and has cows. He has no children, so it is likely that the farm will come into the hands of someone who is not related to the family when he dies.

On Nestun and Nystun, Rambol, no one is living permanently."

General Notes: 
The following is a discharge certificate from the Prussian Government, relinquishing citizenship in that country. In 1855 the government was Prussian, not German.

The undersigned Royal Government hereby certifies that Christian Frederick Kramer from Claushagen, born 20 May 1799, at his request and his intention to emigrate to America with his wife, Maria Christine Koeppen, born 30 Jun 1800, and the following children, under parental supervision Christian Frederick, born 9 Sep 1828 George Frederick Wilhelm, born 23 Aug 1844 has been granted discharge from the Prussian citizenship. This discharge document is valid only for the persons named above and is effective at the time of issue.

Issued in Potsdam (capital of Prussia)
Discharge Certificate #2214 in Aug 1855
(It is thought that these certificates were numbered beginning at the first of each month, indicating that this certificate Number 2,214 was issued at the peak of the immigration wave.)
1/2 Thaler paid (Thaler was a form of currency)
Two other Kramer brothers also emigrated and came to settle with the family, apparently at a later date.

"Christian Kramer (deceased), was born in Brandenburg, Germany in 1799. He married Christina Köppen, and had five sons, two of whom reside in Utica, one at Trempealeau County, Wisconsin, one at Dodge Center, and the other near Mankato, Minnesota. In 1856 Mr. Kramer emigrated direct to this township, and bought 280 acres of land on Sections 1 & 2. He gave 40 acres to each of his sons, leaving eighty acres in his own homestead. He died on 26 Dec 1867, and Mrs. Kramer died in Dec 1881."

Christian Frederick Kramer born 20 May 1799, at Klaushagen, Province of Brandenburg, near Berlin. Christian was an orphan, whose parents were killed while traveling. He was a small man. Date of death and burial place believed to be at Silo.

Khoesmia Marie Christina Koeppen born 30 Jun 1800, at Klaushagen, Province of Brandenburg, daughter of Martin Koeppen, a farmer, church elder and assessor, and Christine Karoske. Maria Christina was an only child; from a family of wealth, according to oral history. Her daughter-in-law, George Frederick's wife, was later to say that Maria Christina, had silk and laces and & quote "acted as if she had them".

Maria Christina ran away with Christian Frederick. They were married 17 Nov 1825, at Klaushagen.

They emigrated to the United States on 30 Aug 1855 with their oldest and the youngest sons.

The Kramer family farm was at Silo, Minnesota, between Lewiston and Stockton. The farm site may have been where a grove of trees can now be seen across the road from the Lutheran church at Silo. After the death of Christian Frederick, Marie Christina lived with her youngest son, George Frederick and his family. It is said that she had a rather fierce temper. She died 17 Dec 1882 at Mt. Vernon Twp. and is buried at the Lutheran Cemetery, Silo. There is no marker.
----------------------------------------

There appears to be no current real geographic area known as "Silo" in Winona County and most researchers believe it to refer to the area around the old Silo Immanuel Lutheran Church and Cemetery in Utica Township.

NOTE - The immigration dates are inaccurate.

In light of the fact that his marriage date is listed as 1857 (Minnesota), it can be assumed that he arrived shortly after his parents did in 1856.

General Notes: 
The following is a discharge certificate from the Prussian Government, relinquishing citizenship in that country. In 1855 the government was Prussian, not German.

The undersigned Royal Government hereby certifies that Christian Frederick Kramer from Claushagen, born 20 May 1799, at his request and his intention to emigrate to America with his wife, Maria Christine Koeppen, born 30 June 1800, and the following children, under parental supervision Christian Frederick, born 9 Sep 1828 George Frederick Wilhelm, born 23 Aug 1844 has been granted discharge from the Prussian citizenship. This discharge document is valid only for the persons named above and is effective at the time of issue.

Issued in Potsdam (capital of Prussia)
Discharge Certificate #2214 in Aug 1855
(It is thought that these certificates were numbered beginning at the first of each month, indicating that this certificate Number 2,214 was issued at the peak of the immigration wave.)
1/2 Thaler paid (Thaler was a form of currency)
Two other Kramer brothers also emigrated and came to settle with the family, apparently at a later date.

Find A Grave Memorial 52765269

General Notes: 
On all census records, the age of Martin Possin was consistently overstated by exactly one year. Perhaps he thought his date of birth was 11 Nov 1800 instead of 11 Nov 1801. On the Passenger Ship's Manifest when he sailed from Germany to the US in 1848, his age was stated as 48 which would seem to indicate that his proper year of birth was 1800. Only his obituaries and gravestone seem to indicate 1801. No birth records from Germany have been discovered.
