Elizabeth GRAF

She was married to Hans Ely BAR.⁽³⁷⁸⁰⁾

Hans GRAF was born about 1675 in Steinsfurt Parish, Northern Kraichgau Region, Germany.⁽³⁷⁸¹⁾ South west part of Germany, near Steinsfurt, about fifteen miles southeast of Heidelberg. He immigrated about 1696 to Germantown, Philadelphia Co., Pa..⁽³⁷⁸²⁾ Hans Graf was one of the first settlers in what became Lancaster Co.
He owned 1,419 acres purchased from Martin Kendig on 18 Nov 1737 in Groffdale (New Holland), Lancaster Co., Pa..⁽³⁷⁸³⁾ Originally purchased from the Penn family by Martin Kendig, with the warrant being obtained on 22 Sept. 1717. The Kendig patent would be in the State Archives. A deed transfer in 1737 would have been recorded in Lancaster County.

It is believed that Hans Graf found his home site ten miles east and north of Lancaster when he went in search of horses that had strayed from him. He was buried in 1746 in Groffdale (New Holland), Lancaster Co., Pa..⁽³⁷⁸⁴⁾ He died before 7 May 1746 in Groffdale (New Holland), Lancaster Co., Pa..⁽³⁷⁸⁵⁾ Groffdale was named for this pioneer, Hans Graf. He had an estate probated on 7 May 1746 in Lancaster Co., Pa..⁽³⁷⁸⁶⁾ He was a Wagoner and fur trader in Between Philadelphia and Harris Ferry on the Susquehanna..⁽³⁷⁸⁷⁾ Harris Ferry would be the area where Harrisburg was founded.

Hans Graf was said to be fluent in Indian language of the region. The name Graf in English means Earl, a title for man of nobility; thus, Earl Township, West Earl Township, and East Earl were named after Hans Graf, as well as Groffdale.

There was a family legend that Hans Graf left a wife behind in Germany when he emigrated to Philadelphia. Graf is said to have married after arriving in the New World, but his first wife later arrived in Pennsylvania, causing a problem for him and the Mennonite community. Supposedly, decided to support her and built a small dwelling for her some distance from his own home, although he did not live with her. This legend persists with long time residents of Groffdale, but researcher John Slabaugh doubts that the story is factual based on his young age when he left Europe. Slabaugh points out that there were numerous immigrants with the name Hans Graf and the story could have applied with any of them. Perhaps more evidence at a future date will clear this up.

There appears to be substantial research documented in "The Wenger Book" on pages 159-166 and also starting on page 1062. More research is available on this pioneer family and has yet to be exhausted for this database as of February 2001.

Hans Heinrich GRAF was born in Jan 1639 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁷⁹⁸⁾ He was baptized on 22 Jan 1639 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁷⁹⁹⁾ If Hans Heinrich, third born, has the same name as Hans Heinrich, second born, it could be possible that the second born did not survive his first year. Sometimes names were repeated in families as perhaps in honor of a child that died. Parents: Jakob GRAF and Anna SPORRI.

Hans Jakob GRAF was born in Jun 1623 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁸⁰⁰⁾ He was baptized on 15 Jun 1623 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁸⁰¹⁾ Parents: Hans GRAF and Elisabeth PETER.

Marx GRAF was born in Oct 1640 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁸²¹⁾ He was baptized on 1 Nov 1640. Baretswil is about 25 miles east of Zurich. He died after 1689.⁽³⁸²²⁾ In 1651, his parents moved from Switzerland to the Kraichgau, Germany, east of Heidelberg, and then to Sinsheim and by 1661 were living in the village of Steinsfurt. It is likely that Marx died in Germany. He resided Baretswil, Switzerland 1640 to 1651 in Baretswil, Canton Zurich, Switzerland.⁽³⁸²³⁾ He resided Sinsheim, Germany 1651 to 1661 in Sinsheim, Kraichgau region, Germany.⁽³⁸²⁴⁾ He resided Steinsfurt, Germany 1661 to aft 1683 in Steinsfurt Parish, Northern Kraichgau Region, Germany.⁽³⁸²⁵⁾ This is based on the known location of his parents and assumes that Marx lived long enough to reside in that area. One must also consider the possibility that Marx resided elsewhere, or even emigrated, but no evidence has been found to support a latter assumption. The connection of Marx being the father of Hans is not confirmed, but research by John Slabaugh and Jane Evans Best makes it likely that this is a correct assumption.
