Notes

http://collectornuts.com/bellinger.pdf

JOHANNES BELLINGER: Johannes was baptized on November 17, 1664 in Rodenbach, Nassau Hessen, Germany. In 1710 about 1200 German Palatines were brought to Columbia Co, NY as indentured servants, and about the same number were settled on the west bank of the Hudson River. They were set free in 1712, but were not given the land that was promised them. Some moved on but many of the families stayed in Columbia and surrounding counties. This is probably the Johannes Bellinger listed in 1714 "The Book of Names, Especially Relating to the Early Palatines and the First Settlers in the Mohawk Valley."

Other Bellingers listed were: Nicolaus, Marcus, Henrich, and Elizabetha. Marcus and Henrich are shown as being in the East Camp, Soldiers in the Canadian Exposition of 1711. David A. Bellinger wrote that "The German (Palatine) Bellingers were driven from Steinau An Der Strasse and other southern German villages in 1709. Queen Anne's London Board of Trade offered passage for approximately 3000 destitute Palatines on 10 ships destined for the New World (America) with requirement that the favored Palatines work as laborers to provide tar urgently needed by the British Navy. Several hundred died enroute to America. More than 1800 Palatines were settled in Oct. 1710 at Livingston manor, 90 miles north of New York City on the Hudson River. "

Johannes Bellinger (Hunter Lists #37) and other family members were the first Caucasians in upstate New York Wilderness and finally settled in 1723 in what is now Herkimer Co, NY." Jones (1985) asserts that "... all the emigrant Bellingers of 1709 were related, but not in the way previously thought" (p. 47). "Johannes was called a carpenter in 1699 (Langenselbold) and was listed as having one horse at Huttengesab 3 March 1701 (Birstein Archives)" (Jones, 1985, p. 49). He first appeared on the Hunter lists 4 Aug 1710 with 4 persons over 10 years of age. In a Palatine debt book dated 1712, Johannes was listed among several carpenters. In 1716, Johannes was living in NeuQuunsberg. On April 30, 1725, he was a patentee on the north side of the Mohawk River.

   Early Eighteenth Century Palatine Emigration

THE SIMMENDINGER REGISTER
The list contains the Appendix of Ulrich Simmendinger's pamphlet, Warhoffte und glaubwurdige Verzeichnuss jeniger Personen; welche sich anno 1709 aus Teutschland in Americam oder neue welt begeben. . . . (Reuttlingen, ca. 1717). A copy is in the rare book room of the New York Public Library. Another copy is in the possession of Dr. Gustav Anjou, West New Brighton, Staten Island, New York. Simmendinger, who was one of the immigrants himself, returned to German in 1717 and there published this brief account of the emigration and the names of those Palatine families still living in New York. The family names were given by Simmendinger under fourteen locations. These lists have been brought together into one alphabetized list, but the locations are preserved by including after the family head's name the letter of the alphabet, denoting the location according to the following key.
Quunsberg = (a)
Wormsdorff=(b)
Hunderston = (c)
Heessberg = (d)
Becksmansland (e)
Neu= Stuttgardt = (f)
Neu = Cassel = (g)
Neu=Quunsberg = (h)
Neu=Heidelberg = (i)
Neu = Heessberg = (j)
Neu = Ansberg = (k)
Dise Menschen wohnen auf dem Rarendantz = (l)
In Neu=Yorck = (m)
Hackensack = (n)
The first four villages comprised East Camp on the land purchased from Robert Livingston on the east side of the Hudson River. These villages have been identified as Queensbury, Annsbury, Hunterstown, and Haysbury respectively, as they are named in the New York Colonial MMS., LV, 100. Beckmansland, judged by the identification of certain individuals in the list, comprised the three villages on the west side (West Camp), given in the loc. cit. as Elizabeth town, George Town, and New Town, However, it is possible that the families identified may have moved to the east side of the river south of Livingston Manor, and the location of Beckmansland may be the Rhinebeck area. The objection to this surmise is that it leaves us without any notation of families living in West Camp. The villages marked (f) to (l) are apparently German names for the seven Schoharie Valley settlements, probably used only in the pamphlet to impress the people in the Fatherland for whom the lists were prepared. Tentatively, by the identification of a few family names known to reside in the several villages, they appear to be as follows:
Neu=Stuttgardt (f)---------Weiserdorf
Neu=Cassel (g)------------Gerlachsdorf
Neu=Quunsberg (h) -------Hartmansdorf
Neu=Heidelberg (i)-------Brunnendorf
Neu=Heesberg (j)---------Fuchsendorf
Neu=Ansberg (k)----------Schmidsdorf
Auf dem Rarendantz-------Kniskerndorf

"Since the German records had not yet been found when LFB was doing his research, his book begins with the earliest known Bellingers in New York. He made extensive use of all available information, including embarkation and subsistence lists, the Simmendinger Census in New York (about 1716), deeds, wills, etc. But he had to make many assumptions in the absence of church records for the earliest years. He also made a case against a previous tradition (common in many family histories) that began with the phrase "three or four brothers came to this country." While brothers often did emigrate together, LFB showed that the supposed Bellinger "brothers" also had an immigrant father. (He cited a New York payroll receipt for carpenter work, signed by Frederick Bellinger "for himself and for his father Johannes") Based on this and other information, he came to the conclusion that Frederick’s father, Johannes Bellinger, was the "ancestor of all of the Bellinger names in the valley." That conclusion, however, was not totally correct."
