Hartmann Hunsaker

INFO CITED FROM: Ancestry

Note: The Hunsakers lived in the Canton of Bern, Switzerland. The Swiss government confiscated all Mennonite land and deported and jailed all suspected Mennonites/Anabaptists. On a list of those jailed in in the dungeon of the Island Castle in Bern in 1728 appeared the names of Jacob Hon acre, Rudoph Honacre, and Hartmen Honacre. It is believed this is actually "Hunsaker." Hartmann gave his home as Katzbach. Hartman and his family lost their lands and possessions and left at the request of the state government. They went to Wiesbaden, Germany, but the Mennonites were not extremely welcome there either. He applied for Relief and help from the Mennonite Committee at Amsterdam where "Hartman Huntinger with wife and seven children apply to emigrate to Pennsylvania", probably because William Penn had offered homes to religious dissenters who wanted to enjoy liberty in matters of religion.

Birth: 27 JAN 1689/90 in Katzbach, Bern, Switzerland Immigration: 10 SEP 1731 Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, USA

Note: Listed in the Amsterdam Archives (No. 2274) on a list dated 23 June 173 1 of Palatines who were prospective Pennsylvania emigrants requiring help from the Mennonite Relief Committee. They sailed from Rotterdam on the ship "Pennsylvania Merchant", John Stedman, Commander, with wife Anna and six children: Frena, Elizabeth, Anna, Ursul, Meyer, and Hannes. The last name was spelled "Huntseker". A list of the ship's passengers show the following members of the family: Hartman Huntseker; over 16 years of age - Anna, Eliz. (Elizabeth), and Frena (Verene); under 16 years of age - Urse (Ursula), Meyer (Mary), Anna, and Hannes (John). The ship arrived in Philadelphia on 10 Sep 1731 and Hartmann signed his oath of allegiance the next day. Briefly settled near Germantown, Pennsylvania, but eventually settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

Residence: Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, USA

Note: The family lived first in Germantown, Pennsylvania, but within a few years moved to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, by which time they had nine children - eight daughters and one son.

Death: 1733 in Frederick Township, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, USA
