Notes:

Information on John's ancestry came from Marietta Pickell (csimp@uclink4.berkeley.edu) Ask her for more Pickel/Appleman information, or ask Rebecca (RebeccaLws@aol.com) for the Pickle gedcom.

John married Elizabeth Wintermute. Elizabeth (daughter of Lennard Windemoot and Phebe Comstock) was born in 1765 in Wantage, Sussex County, New Jersey. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

To continue with my line, Baltis had a son Matthias, b. Oct, 18,1744, who in turn had a son Peter b. July 5,1784, who in turn had a son David Russell Appleman b. Nov.15,1835.

Most of my history on the Appleman's comes directly from Appleman's now living in Bloomsburg, PA. who are also descendants of Johann and Anna Magdalena. They have original parchment land records etc. We saw these when we made a visit there and
also was able to visit the site of Peter Appleman's farm and also the cemetery (Old and new Rosemont). There is a story about Peter Appleman b. July 5, 1784. He had so much land that it took him 3 days to walk from one side to the other and he
gave the church a gold brick on the pastor's desk for his tithes and offerings for the year.

Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I had the Mormon library send me the microfilm from the parish church in Darmstadt, Germany where Johann Peter Appleman and Anna Magdalena Diekerhoff attended church. I found the Priest's records a
little hard to read because they are written in the old German script but the names are very readable as well as the dates.

I have the priest's recording of Anna Magdalena Diekerhoff's confirmation in 1690 and also that of her sister, Anna Maria Diekerhoff in 1682.

The next find I made was the record of the marriage of Johann Peter Appleman and Anna Magdalena Diekerhoff on Feb. 7, 1700. That is on page 426 of the records. Some of the page numbers are not legible.

Then I found the priest entry on April 2, 1701 recording the birth of their 1st child Johann Peter-----then April 2, 1702, Johann Michael-----then Dec. 19, 1703, Elisabeth, also birth records of Anna Catherina Dec. 4,1705-----Maria Catherina
March 13,1707----Johann Daniel July 26, 1708.

I found your entries under Google on the internet and because church records show Anna Magdalena as a Diekerhoff, I really don't think using her name as Pickle is correct and may be confusing to others reseaching her. We have other items that
also use the name Diekerhoff.

You can find these records on "Europe film area 1347169 item 3-4". If you go to the Mormon family center, they can give you a booklet on reading the old German script which makes it easier to spot these names. They can also order the microfilm
for you.

Georg married Maria Juliana Huber. Maria was born in 1715. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

I am trying to determine the identity of Maria Julia Huber (Hover, Hoover) wife of George Philip Wintermute.



A Johannes Hendricus Hover b. 1705 came to Philadelphia n 1735 and settled in Smithfield, PA before 1742. This was on the west side of the Delaware River in present Monroe County, Pennsylvania and only a few miles from the

Stillwater area. He was admitted a member of the Reformed Dutch Church at Smithfield on 22 June 1745 and on 6 June 1746 Susana Holeyson his wife was admitted, having formerly been a Lutheran.



Five known children:

John b. 1738 killed in Indian raid. The raid was perhaps in 1756 when the Indian disturbances along the Delaware became severe.

Henry b. 4 Apr 1740.

Susanna bpt 14 Mar 1742 Smithfield.

Samuel bpt 30 Dec 1744 Smithfield.

Emanuel bpt 20 Sept 1747 Smithfield taken prisoner in same raid that brother John was killed in. Emanuel later served in American Revolution as a Captain. On 18 Apr 1797 Manuel Hover and Mary his wife of Northampton

County, Pennsylvania conveyed 150 acres in Walpack to Jonas Smith and wife Mary, excepting one half acre, it being the common burying ground of Walpack.



It is believed that a Johan Michael Huber who married Elizabeth Mennes, Catharian Huber who married Peter Conterman (Countryman, Gunderman, etc.), and Maria Juliana Huber Wintermute were perhaps siblings to Johan Hendricus (Henry). A Johan
Michael Huber came on the ship "Snow Catherine" 28 May 1742. In the "Memorials of the Moravian Church" it is related that the brethern (Moravians) kept and preached a school in the upper valley of the Delaware on the Jersey shore in 1746 and
1747 and were ministered to by a Joseph Shaw who came on the same ship as Johan Michael Huber and were the

first colonists who arrived at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania in June 1742. On page 75 in speaking of Johan Michael Huber it says "lost at sea in a hurricane on the passage to St. Thomas in Oct 1747 along with the missionaries Joseph and Mary Shaw.
There was another Johan Michael Huber

who arrived 21 Aug 1750 on the ship "Anderson." He is perhaps the one who married Elizabeth Mennes and had a son Johannes baptised Feb 1753 Walpack sponsored by Peter Counterman and Catharine Huber.



The Hubers are mentioned in the parish registers of Trippstadt situated at or near Holzwald, six miles south of Kaiserslautern. Several Hubers came to Philadelphia in 1740's and 1750's.
