inventory 11 Jan 1859
accts 7 Jun1860
1820 census, pg 016, Augusta Twp (Henry Jr?), 100100-00100 (?Jr?)
1830 census, pg 173, Augusta Twp (s/o Peter), 3000 01-0000 01
1840 census, pg 187, Augusta Twp, 0221 001-0000 101
1850 census, Lower Augusta Twp, Henry, 53,farmer, $2000, Christiana 59,
Samuel 19 farmer, Benjamin 17, Susanna 26
(who is Susanna? I doubt a daughter based on estate records. Rather, it's
likely a child of a sibling/cousin helping out.
Notice out of order ages, as in kids listed first, then others).
Christiana's land was passed on to Henry (Harry) B. and Benjamin B.
See Deed book TT:373.
1827 poor tax, $45 or $2.68 (probably the latter)
sp - 1819 Peter Conrad and Juliana Wilhelm (wf is Catarina !?)
sp - 1829 John Zimmerman and Magdalena
The reasons for placing Henry here are:
- Henry fits here age wise (consider Peter's will to mention kids inage order)
- Henry died owning the same land described as given from Peter tohis son Henry
in Peter's will
- the 1830 census record for Henry, s/o Peter,match this Henry's family (while others don't)
- the 1820 census (Jr) probably refers to "Younger" in this case, not s/o Henry
- Henry the elder (s/o Jacob Conrath) had a son Henry born much later
- Henry doesn't fit in to the otherfamilies
So I have no doubt he is the son of Peter Conrad
Note how old Henry and Christina are when they are married. Perhaps she or both were marriedbefore? But the estate records don't seem to show any other decendents.
Probably a daughter also. At Stone Church "daughter of Henry Conrad, stillborn,
died/buried 18 aug 1827"
I still see a daughter Susanna showing up as a child of Henry. But she's not mentioned in the estate records, so I doubt that the Susannah from the 1850 census is a daughter of his. Especially the part where Susannah married Daniel Zartman. Daniel shows up in the estate records when Henry died, but as an unbiased neighbor when checking the property. If he was really a son-in-law, he wouldn't be unbiased and wouldn't be evaluating the land for his brothers-in-law. If he did marry Susannah, and she was a Conrad, shewasn't a daughter of Henry. - note - found Susanna Conrad w/o Daniel Zimmerman, buried at Lantz, 8/1/1817 - 6/6/1901 (still not a d/o of Henry in my opinion)
