HISTORY AND GENEALOGY.
To gather the history and genealogy of a race after nearly two centuries has elapsed is found to be no easy task.
Many of the early records are either lost or are in unknown hands. But patience and perseverence has its just reward and a diligent search has brought information from many sources. The early history is composed of tradition, oral history, and family records. The latter were all written in the German language, which should be a sufficient proof that the Countryman ancestry were of German descent.

The earliest ancestral name given is that of Conrad Countryman, who, to escape religious persecution, emigrated from Germany to France, continuing later to Holland and finally to the United States of America. This emigration to Holland has given rise to the false impression among some of the Countryman posterity that they were Hollanders. Conrad was accompanied to America by his brother, the two men landing in New York harbor during the decade of 1710-20 A. D. Here they separated. Conrad proceeded up the Hudson and Mohawk river valleys, while his brother is said to have gone into the state of Pennsylvania.There is little known of the history of this brother. The names of few of his posterity who served as soldiers in the Revolutionary War are on record at the state capitol at Harrisburg. There is, also, the name of one soldier recorded in the capitol records of the state of Virginia. Likewise another small group of his posterity are in evidence in other states.

Conrad Countryman is said to have first settled in Schoharie county, New York. Later he moved into Montgomery county where many of his posterity are known to have resided dt,ring the Revolutionary War. Fort Willet
was built on some of their land. It is further interesting to note that twenty-seven of his posterity enlisted as soldiers n the war. The date of Conrad's marriage and the maiden J1amc of hs \\·ife are unknown. T:~e issue of their union \Ye a;-e to'd wa~, ten chi'dren. ceH.n ,·ons and three claughtc;·s. (NEEDS A LITTLE CLEAN UP)

Their children were: Adam. :Vlarcus, Frederick, Conrad, Jr., John, Jacob, George, Ann Eve, who married William Dillenback; Rosana, who married John Pickard; and l\/Irs. John Plants, whose name is unknown. Of these children we are the most deeply interested in John, the fifth son, whose p8sterity constitute the larger portions of the membership of the Countryman Relative Reunion, either as direct descendants or through marriage relationships. John, having left his family records in the hands of his posterity who fortunately preserved them, we have access to an accurate history and genealogy. ............ MUCH MORE ON LINE.
