After his wife, Anna's, death, he came t o America with eight children, arriving in New York on 13 June 1710. In the Spring of 1711, he had married Anna Margaret Miller, and wit h her he had three children. However, nothing is known of their life together. They came from the Palatinate to East Camp, Dutchess County. It is generally believed that Johann Conrad Weiser was buried at Zio n or Reed's Churchyard in Stouchburg, Pennsyl vania; however there are some ground s forassuming he found his last resting place at the Weiser farm, no w Weiser Park, in Womeldorf. Weiser Family, Phalzische Familien und Wap penkunde Vol. Five No. 10 ( 1966). Translated January 1973; JDBaldwin): Among the leaders of the German colonists who settled in America in 1 710 (the majority came from the Pfalz so they were generally called Pfalzer, or Palatines) were two Schwabians, Johann Conrad Weiser Sr. born about 1 662 in Grossaspaach, Wuerttember, died 1746 in Tulpehocken, Berks Co, Penna. , and his son Johann Conrad Weiser Jr. born in Kueppingen bei Affstaett, Wuertt emberg, Nov 2, 1696, died in Tulpehocken July 13, 1760. Johann Conrad Sr. first entered into marriage with Anna Magdalena Ube len (?-Ubele), daughter of Hans Ubelen. The couple had fifteen children , the names of thirteen of which are known. Johann Conrad was corporal the Wuert temberg "Blue Dragoons" as he wrote down in his family record. He must hav e concluded his service in the troop about 1700, for at that time he first appear s in the records as a baker, an occupation which he pursued up to his emigrati on for America in 1709. During fifteenth confinement, Anna Maria died sudde nly on May 1, 1709, following convulsions. Johann Conrad left Grossaspach (prob ably from dissatisfaction with living con ditions there) on June 24, 1709. Hi s oldest daughter, al ready married, bought his property, and he took his eigh t remaining living children with him. They went to London, from where they saile d for America a month later. Their ship "The Lyon" landed in New York Jun e 13, 1710. Then be?? gan an unaccustomed career for the German emigrant who up to t his time had led a harsh life in Wuerttemberg. As soon as Johann Conrad cam e into association with the other German immigrants, he became more and mor e their leader. In New York, Palatine immigrants were undertaking production of tar f rom the rosin of the sprucewood. They lived in an encamp ment in the vicinit y of Hudson, about 100 miles north of New York City. Next, the colonist s were divided among five villages. Johann Conrad was the administrator o f one of these villages. In this position he represented the inter ests of th e settlers before Governor Robert Hunter in fac ing the most impossible problems tar could be produced from the trees, the overseer of the Palatines , Robert Liv ingston, was a villain, and the Germans needed better living condi tions, above all better nutrition and some land. Dur ing the military campaign of 1711, the difficulties reached thei r highpoint. Johann Conrad was one of the leaders of the Palatine troop contingent s. As the soldiers returned from an unsuccessful battle in the north of New Yor k and recognized that their families were on the edge of hunger, Weiser bro ught the grievances of the Palatines before the governor. This event ended wi th Hunter becoming enraged against the Palatines and ordered their disarmament. Never theless, the following year he guaranteed them complete freedo m in the selection of their settlements. Johann Con rad was one of the men wh o were subsequently selected by the German immigrants to seek land at Schoha rie, about fifty miles west of Albany. Soon after, a small village known as Wei serdorf was established there. This place is known as Middleburg today. Th e living conditions were wretched, however through hard work, they created a n ew home for themselves in this wilderness. Since the Palatine settlers had n o legal claims, more often than not when they concluded purchase agreements w ith the Indians, further difficulties would nevertheless show up. Whenever t he gov ernor sent agents to draw up agreements for the Palatines, they we re met with such distrust that the governor finally gave the land to others , for example to Adam Vrooman who came in 1715. After Johann Conrad Jr., w ho had been living among the Indians and learned their language, had returne d to his father's home, the two Weisers made life so difficult for Vrooman tha t the latter asked Governor Hunter for help. An arrest warrant was given i nto the hands of Justices of the Peace in Albany and Dutchess Counties to bri ng in Jo hann Conrad Sr. under lock and bolt; however he succeeded in havin g this order lifted. In this desparate situation, the Palatines decided to send Weiser an d two other men, Scheff and Wallrath, to London to present a petition to King Geo rge I. This voyage was the most adventurous Weiser had yet undertaken. Atta ck and plunder at the hands of pirates made the three men so indebted in Lon don, that Weiser and Scheff were thrown into jail. Wallrath sailed back to Ame rica but died on the way. Scheff after release from impris onment returned t o New York. Only Johann Conrad Weiser re mained, troubling in vain to plead for th e rights of the Palatines. After five years, he too journeyed back to Amer ica , only to find that his colony was widely scattered. The following years of his life brought Weiser to various places, nev er settled, only following his plan of the mo ment. He sought to buy lan d in Delaware, however he en countered there the opposition of landed propr ietors from Pennsylvania. In his old age, without family ties, Weiser was t o be found in the hinterland of New York, not far from Old Livingston Manor, hi s first place of residence. His son Johann Conrad Jr. visited him there. La ter when his condition deteriorated, two of his sons arranged for him to be br ought to Pennsylvania in May 1746. The last days of the old patriarch were described as follows by Henr y Mel chior Muhlenberg, husband of a daughter of Conrad Jr: " he was so deteriorated in body through the long trip that he w as delivered to my house half dead. Afterwards, he lay in bed for 24 ho urs and took some nourishment, felt himself somewhat recovered and began in b roken words to speak the church-hymn "Schwing dich auf zu deinem Gott". Hi s eye sight had failed, and he could hear no more, so that I could not speak wit h him. I could not hold back my tears as he again and again repeated the tex t which was drawn from the blessed salvation in Christ "Er Trug unsere Schwaechen ", to which he added similar texts as "Kommet her zu mir alle, die ihr Mueh selig und beladen seid". "My father-in-law Johann Conrad Weiser Jr. in the meatime dispatche d a wagon with a bed, and brought his father fifty miles further to his home after great difficulties reached his destination, he gave us his bles sing. He passed away after a journey of between 80 and 90 years; afterwards h e still lives a short while at his Joseph in Goshen, amongst the prayers an d tears of his children and grandchildren who stand around him". (Note: I canno t make better sense of this last sentence - jdb). The Tulpehocken settlement was established in 1723; it is about 15 mi les west of Reading. Conrad Weiser (Jr.), a German emigrant from the Palatina te, wrote in his Journal: "In 1709 my father moved from Great Anstach --- in a bout two months we reached London, England, along with several thou sand German s whom Queen Anne, of glorious remembrance, had taken in charge, and was fur nished food. About Christmas Day we embarked and ten ship loads, with abou t 4,000 souls were sent to America. "On June 13, 1710, we came to anchor at New York and in the same autu mn were taken to Livingston Manor (East Camp and West Camp) at the expense o f the Queen. Here we were to burn tar and cultivate hemp to repay expense s incurred by the Queen in bringing us from Holland to New York. Neither project succeeded. In 1712, the-peo ple were discharged and declared free. T he people scat tered over New York. Many remained where they were. "About 150 families removed to Schochary (Schoharie) about 40 En glis h miles west of Albany. In 1723 the people got news of land on Suataro, Tulp ehocken, in Pennsylvania. Many united and cut a road from Schochary to the Su squehana River, car ried their goods there; and made canoes and floated down th e river to the mouth of Suataro Creek and drove their cattle overland. This hap pened in the spring of the year 1723. From there they came to Tulephocken an d this was the origin of the Tulpehocken settlement."
