I am 34 years old from Altoona PA. My grandparents are George and Ruth Klock.
I am a musician. Guitar, mandolin and banjo are my instruments of choice.
My stage name is Ragadee Hobo.
I have a question about the Klock history.
All clothes, paper and oil were made from hemp in the early days. Have there ever been any Cannabis... Hemp farmers in the family?

What a great site! I look through it often as I research my Mower (Mowers,
Mauer, Maurer) side of the family. We are looking for the grave of Conrad
Mower who was a resident of Mohawk on the 1790 census, which is also the year
he died. He fought at Oriskany. Thanks for having such a wonderful site.

Very nice site! I am looking for clues to my Great Grandfather Charles Bickford,
he was said to have Mohawk blood in his past, The story says he could have
gotten a quarter section of land for each of his children, but didnt want
to admit having Indian blood.

I really enjoy your website. Would you know if elements of The Line - Artillery,
Second Regiment under COLONEL JOHN LAMB and MAJOR SEBASTIAN BAUMAN were present
in New York City when the British invaded that city. I notice the name John
Garigues in this unit. A man by this name was supposedly captured in NY City
and forced to join Delancy's Loyalists.

This is a wealth of research material. I am searching for the parents of 3
men believed to be brothers . They settle in Terre Haute, Vigo County, Indiana.
Ralph R& Samuel Conover (both born in 1811 in New Jersey, pos. Middlesex
county) and William Conover ( born in Sept. 1816 in Cranbury, New Jersey).
Ralph was indentured at 17 as a brick and stone mason. He married Elnor Snedeker
in about 1834. William married Catherine Warth, a Swiss immigrant in about
1837. Ralph moves to IN in 1840 and William in 1855 after about 15 years in
Cincinnati. The Conover name is a variation of the Dutch Van Kouwenhoven/
Covenhoven.

Though I only "looked in on" a few of the "pages" of this
Ft. Klock website, my impression from those (as well as from the titles of
the others) is "very impressive!" . I'm in the process of putting
together an account of my family, the "Dutch" Klock/Clock clan descended
from Abraham Martenszen Klock (ca. 1620-1666) of Albany/New Amsterdam, and
cannot hope to even come close to the toroughness of your effort here.
Congratulations.

I have been on this site many, many times to date and still I always find
something new to review within it's pages. My 'Mohawk Valley' ancestor was
a Loyalist, Malcolm McMartin (Lieutenant, Light Infantry Company,King's Royal
Regiment of New York). I myself am also a member of the Sir John's Royal Yorkers
(Living History unit)and have visited the Mohawk and Schoharie Valleys quite
a number of times in recent years. I never ever get tired of visiting this
area. It is so historic and picturesque and the people who inhabit the area
are always very kind (even to us Tories....LOL!). I just wanted to say to
you, to keep up the great work. To historians like yourselves, so many people
are indebted just by visiting and learning something new.
Cheers from Canada,

Looking for additional information and ancestry on my 3rd great grandparents,
Daniel D. Klock and Nancy Alter. They were married 26 Dec 1833 in the Reformed
Dutch Church, Fort Plain, NY. I descend from their son, Daniel Levi Klock
who moved to Staunton, Macoupin Co., IL. He was married there on 22 Feb 1860
to Mary Anna Dosia Sawyer. They had four children: Cass Albertram "Bert",
Margaret Ann "Maggie", Ebern Thomas, and Mary Frances "Fan".
Daniel Levi usually was called by his middle name, Levi. He served in the
Civil War. It is believed that he had a brother, Sylvester who may have lived
in Gloversville or St. Johnsville, as well as a half sister, Julia.
This is a great site!

As a descendant of Johan Jurg KAST(owner of the Kast Patent) and Sarah and
Teddy McGINNESS (owners of the McGinnis Patent), I found your site a delight
and a joy. (I especially enjoyed the two maps that show the McGinnis holdings!)
Your site is easily the best historical site on the internet today and has
been added to my "Favourites" list for quick future access. Nowhere
have I seen SO much information available for viewing or downloading. Getting
around the site is effortless, and the rewards are many. If this is the work
of one person, I must bow to a dedication beyond any I have encountered. This
site is a genealogist's dream come true. I visited Fort Klock in 1992 with
my mother and daughter, and was much impressed with the care that is obviously
being taken of this priceless piece of American history. Herkimer and Little
Falls are wonderful places to visit, and the valley itself is a true haven
for the history buff. My Loyalist ancestors must have been devastated to leave
such a beautiful area, political beliefs aside. Thank you ALL so much for
the incredible work and obvious love you have for the neighbourhood and for
the website. Good luck, and I'll be back...both via the internet and back
to Fort Klock. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada, Barbara Hopper (15 Mar 2002)

As both Margaret and I are professional genealogists and genealogical columnists
for three newspapers, we want to express our sincere thanks for your presentations.
They are superb especially with the varied history of the Mohawk Valley. While
that valley bore the prunt of the British/Indian depredations, the area of
General Herkimer,
who while wounded and sitting under a tree directed the action of his troops.
We realize that he was in the western part of Pennsylvania, which also suffered
tremendous loses from the British/Indian incursions. Please keep up the good
work, and if you publish a newsletter, please add us to the list, as we do
want to keep in touch, and be able to inform our readers of your great work.

Thank you for this wonderful, informative web site. I have been visiting it
for several years, but this is my first time to write. I am a 10th generation
Klock (Hendrick/Maria Margaretha - Honorich Jr./Anna - Johannes/Margret -George
I./Barbara - John G./Gertrude - Nehemiah/Almira - Robert Zebina (ZR)/Gertrude
- Lewis/Elvira - Ward/Florence - Sally Klock/Michael Kleiman). Your web site
has enabled me to learn so much about past generations of Klock, and it has
allowed me to "get to know" some of my long-deceased relatives so
that I feel as if I actually knew them. My father, Ward (1909-2000), is the
little boy in the front row of the Klock family photo from 1920. My great
grandparents, ZR and Gertrude, are the couple at the far right of the photo
in the third row from the front. My grandparents, Lewis and Elvira, are standing
next to my great grandparents. My Aunt Margret is also in the front row; she
was 4 years old when the picture was taken, and still lives in upstate New
York. I grew up in Johnstown, New York and now live in Ohio. When we visit
New York, I love to visit Fort Klock and feel the past come alive. As I was
growing up, I realized that I would not change my name when I married. As
my father's Aunt Helen used to say, "Once a Klock, always a Klock"!
Keep up the good work, and I'll consider myself fortunate to keep visiting
the web site.

This was an unknown treat to find out history of my family. My Great Grandfather
Jacob moved from the New York area to New Orleans. My Grandfather Nathan Paul
Allen Klock started a large family there.
I am a Navy Commander and have ran into a few Klocks in the military, all from the Northeast.
It is fascinating to know that with an unusual name like Klock you must be related somehow.
I hope to visit the area someday.

My mother's maiden name was Klock. Her father, an only child, born, 1900-1901,
his first name was Duane. I believe he came from Homer, NY. Please let me
know if he is indeed a member of this family. Thank you.

Family tradition leads me to believe my ancestor Jacob Becker b abt 1695 died
abt 1772 in Pennsylvania was a member of the Palatine immigrants in Schoharie,NY.
He is supposed to have been buried in Pennsylvania. This site has been most
interesting and informative. Thank you.

Very well done! I particularly enjoyed reading large extracts of books as
my ancestor (William Kennedy) was a tenant of the Johnson's at least from
September 1778 to February 1782 in Philadelphia Bush before he fled to Canada
with his wife (Mary Butler) and their six children. If ever someone came accross
something on him (name also spelled Kenedy or Canada) or on his neighbour
Michael Carman please get in touch. Thanks and keep on the good work.

Hi all, Very good web site. Am trying to trace a few ancestors, the Wax family
(Fort Plain) John and Anna Wax probably around 1850 to 1870. The Reamon family
(Henry and Margaret Willick Reamon probably around 1850-1870 (Fort Plain),
and George Grimshaw's son Myron, who played baseball for the Boston Red Sox
from 1907 to 1909. Can't find anything on Myron's family (wife, children etc).
I know he was born in St. Johnsville and died in Canajoharie. I live in Florida
and haven't made a trip back to Canajoharie for some time now. Anyone knowing
anything of the above individuals would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Roger
Grimshaw (Canajoharie 1935 until 1954).

I am finding very interesting to learn more about one part of my own German

I am still looking for their exactly birthplace, however learning about this immigrants history make me very proud to be KLOCK.
My genealogy:
DAISY REGINA KLOCK, daughter of BRAZ PAULO KLOCK, who was son of NORBERTO
KLOCK, who was son of HEINRICK KLOCK, who was son of MATHIAS KLOCK (German
pioneer), who was son of MATTHIAS KLOCK and MARIA ZIMMERMANN (both German

I have so far traced my family back to the marriage in 1782 of Georg Schäffer and Elizabeth JUBY and the Names Maria and Elizabeth occur frequently in the family as do the names Gworge, John & Frederick.
It is possible that Georg's ancestors were Palatines but I have yet to establish that.

My g6 g-father served in the Revolution (Frederick Windecker). Your site has
provided some valuable supporting evidence.
My gg g-father George Willard Windecker of Manheim, married Melissa (born Amanda Melissa in 1947) Her father, Daniel b 1818 appears to be the son of Adam (or Johann Adam)& C. Snyder; with Daniel, the grandson of Adam J. and C. Stauring; Daniel being the gg-son of Adam, b 1731 and married to Caty Seeber. Is this Adam, the son of Col. Klock? Who can I contact for discussion on this topic?
I will return to my ancestral home in the Mohawk Valley in June and will stop by for a visit. (My parents dragged me away when I was five years old.)
Your site is a great resource and I have suggesteed it to several
other folks doing family history research on ancestors from the Valley.

'Wonderful web site--we are envious. Of course you know most of the Simms
material should be taken with a huge "grain of salt." Not much is
useful for research and documentation in primary sources proves most of it
inaccurate. For example, Anne's nickname was "Nancy." Nancy was
not an erroneous name for Sir William's daughter. But Simms is delightful
as an anecdotal piece of folklore.

Would you know where I can find information about the ancestry of David Williams
(of the John Andre-Benedict Arnold fame) and his spouse, reportedly a Miss
Benedict?
David Williams was the uncle of my great-grandmother.
Thank you for any help you can furnish.

I really enjoy you work. The many writings are really facinating and even
more so when I find family listed. My ancestor Philip Henry Lepper died on
his way over to America while traveling with his wife and five children. It
appears that by the time they reached New York, only two children had survived
along with their mother. She shows up on the Governors ration list. All this
I was able to obtain through your documents. Thanks! Mark

Thank you for this great web site. I will meet early next week with a planner
to discuss the restoration of Historic
Fort Wayne in Detroit. I don't know where to start, or what I can do for him.
He has a $500,000 planning budget from the
state...and the fort has been basically abandoned since 1972. If you have
a "restoration agenda" or "project priority list"; something
that you started with, I would appreciate it. I know this is coming out of
left field.
Keep up the committed work at Ft. Klock.

Yes, yes - I'm here, and so pleased to have found this interesting page. But
the name that has brought me here is COUGHNET, my brother-in-law's line. Alas,
I found only one reference to COUGHNET on the earliest-settlers pages, saying
that someone (the writer of the piece) had "discarded"the name as
"too Irish". Well, words failed me. Aren't you either an early settler
or you're not, regardless of background? And here John Luke Coughnet (who
as born in Colmar, Alsace and not Irish at all, if it mattered) fought for
Johnny Reb in the revolution, settled in the Johnstown area, and had a family.
He married Christina Bosshart, who had been born in Fonda. John's son Peter
lived in the Johnstown area all his life, raised a family there. Peter's daughter
Christine Coughnet married Asa Scott Tiffany, and so it went. Johnstown people,
all the way. Someday, I'd like to hear why this pioneer family's name was
"discarded" - I don't understand the criteria used in the article,
perhaps. But this is a grand page, or series of pages, and I thank those who
have put it together. I'll be back.

Thank you for an incredible site. My 5x great grandfather was Adam Hertel/Hartel/Harzel
who was a Palatine on the "4th" sailing from Europe. Gertraut Waid/Weid/Weyden
was his third wife, (also a Palatine) who he married in 1716, and the mother
of my 4x great grandfather, Johannes Hartel. It is interesting to follow the
birth of Adam's two daughters, death of one child, death of his second wife,
and then marriage to Gertraut Weid - in your site. Thanks again.

I was born in Amsterdam, and lived in Johnstown and Gloversville until I was five. My parents taught school at Johnstown, Oppenheim (sp?) and Ephreda (sp??)I vividly recall drives through the fall colors to historic sites in the Mohawk Valley. I recall seeing Fort Klock numerous times, and often wondered as to its history.
Thanks to your site, I have relived some very pleasant childhood memories. I hope to bring my children to see your restoration in the very near future.

Just located your site. Great stuff. Maybe we are somehow
related as Johannes is listed way back in our history. I
come from the Johnstown,Pa area where there are still a large amount of Klocks.
My Grandparents came from Michigan
by way of upstate NY.
