MISCELLANEOUS CARROLL COUNTY SIGHTINGS Leonhart Foreman sells land (part of Hockstadt Enlarged, beginning of my family's holdings in Bachman Valley) to Conrad Hileman in 1786. He somehow got it from Stophil Decker who got it from Rudolph Decker, one of the original owners. How? I don't think he is the (presumably English) Leonard Foreman b 1758 who was a Rev War pensioner from Anne Arundel County.

Fuhrman family of Deep Run Road (north of Bachman Valley Road) posted by Roger Nale My Nail family lived on land located on Deep Run Road in present day Carroll County, MD. Other land owners in the area were Lingenfelter, Trump, Lippy, Banker(t) and Shriver.

In the "Settlement of final account of Daniel Nail, March 20, 1830" there is this reference: "To Mary Slider, Frederick Trump, Susanna Furman, Rachael Furman, David Furman & Lydia Furman Children of testators Sister Louisa each 2.77 1/3". This Louisa could also have been known as Lovice or Lovesa. I also have the following information: "Inscription from old cemetery at St. Mary's Church, Silver Run, MD. "FOREMAN Lovesa d/ 11 Oct 1852 @ 78y.1m.19d".

I hope you might have some information which would shed some light on who the husband of Louisa Nail might have been and something of his family.

OATHS OF ALLEGIENCE,
MILITARY SERVICE LISTINGS
Daniel, Jacob, and John Foreman all took the Oath of Allegiance in 1778 in Frederick Co. MD (reference citation found on page 131 of "Revolutionary Patriots of Frederick Co. MD 1775-1783", by Henry C. Peden, Jr., Family Line Publishers, 1995). [Presently I am assuming these three men may have been brothers, and Jacob was our g g g g grandfather.]

Jacob Foreman was listed on page 108 in Volume 18 of "Archives of Maryland - Muster Rolls and Other Records of Service of Maryland Troops in the American Revolution 1775-1778", as having served from June 1780 to 16 Aug 1780, with a rank of Pvt & Cpl.

Daniel, Jacob, and John Foreman, were all listed as Pvts., from the New Windsor area, all having served in the War of 1812 from 22 Jul 1814 to 10 Jan 1815. Jacob also served earlier from 1 May 1813 to 5 Jul 1813. "Frederick County Militia in the War of 1812" by Sallie A. Mack and F. Edward Wright, 1992, page 117. There were other listings for these same persons in the various Company musters. [Presently I am not sure whether this John could have been Johann Peter Foreman or some other Foreman Family relative. Jacob Sr. had died by this time, so that the Jacob listing was no doubt for Jacob Jr.]

Note: Peter and Andrew Foreman (Peter and Andreas Fuhrman), Rev War veterans, moved to Gannett Tp in Franklin County PA late in the 1780s and stayed there. Capt. Andrew Foreman had one son (this Peter) and five daughters. Peter had a number of children, a few of whom can be identified. Peter Fuhrman b. Dec 1754 to Andreas Fuhrman (the Andreas Fuhrman and wife Anna Maria Dillin "from Little Conewago" who were married Mar 18 1754 at St Matthews), sponsored by Peter Fuhrman and Susanna Dillin seen in the Berwick Tp tax lists until leaving for Franklin County, where they are known as Andrew and Mary Dill Foreman, and Peter Foreman.

Fuhrmans on Manheim Township patent map Stephen Foreman and Leonard Foreman (about whom nothing is known). The land assumed by Leonard was originally spoken for by Andreas, whose name is crossed out on the map. So we assume there is some connection between Stephen (about whose descendants a great deal is known), Leonard, and Andreas
More about Fuhrmans named Peter and Andreas Magdalena baptised 1760 (born as early as 1744) to Andreas and Dorothea [Beyerfalck] Fuhrman - She married Philip Hauck 1764 in St Matthew's Lutheran Church, Hanover Boro, York, PA.

Andrew Fuhrman married Dorothy Beyerfalck, Christ Lutheran Church, York, PA 9 Feb 1743. Children all baptised 1760:
Magdalena Fuhrman married Philip Hauck 1764 at St Matthews?
Christina Fuhrman
Anna Margaretha Fuhrman
Johan Jacob Fuhrman

Peter Fuhrman born Abt. 1733. He married Catharina Shriver. Children of Peter Fuhrman and Catharina are:
Andreas3 Fuhrman, born April 30, 1758 in of Conewago Tp, York, PA. This came from Jacob Lischy's private records. Andreas Fuhrman was the sponsor as well - implying that Peter had a brother (maybe the one below)
Elisabetha Catherina Fuhrman, born July 02, 1753. Sponsored by Nicholas Klee and wife Catharina (came at least through Lititz Lancaster)

There is the Stephen Fuhrman b. c. 1720 in Germany, came to USA Came on ship Dragon from Rotterdam via Portsmouth. Took oath of allegiance to King George IIi Philadelphia Oct 17 1749. Related to any of above? A Leonard Fuhrman seemingly of his generation also took a land patent in Manheim Tp York 1757 but didn't live (or stay) to follow through.

If you take a look at a PA map you can soon see that is Trappe, PA located on old Rte 422 just west of Collegeville, while my Jacob lived probably less than 10 miles due north of Trappe on old Cow Path Road (present day Rte 463) in Hatfield Twp. Other FUHRMAN Familes lived just a couple of miles west of my Jacob along the same road in the Souderton, Telford area of Franconia Twp. Even to this day there is a "Forman Road" in Franconia Twp.

The other Jacob FUHRMAN who was listed in the 1743 Franconia Twp tax lists came to America in ~1710 via New York State and never had any sons named Jacob according to all of the available records. He died along about 1750. Furthermore he only had grand-daughters, no grandsons. There was a FUHRMAN Private Cemetery on this other Jacob's farm that reportedly had up to 200 burials, but was no more than a plowed field by 1926, and virtually no surviving records of burials or tombstone inscriptons.
