Magdalena Garlitz Hare Daughter of Hendrey (Christian I) and Margareth Garlitz Husband - Philip Hare Children: Johann Heinrich born January 4, 1779; baptized January 19
Hello Tom,
A distant cousin Sally Stanton Jarrett
forwarded me the information regarding your family history site on the
internet. Sally is a descendant of the Garrett County Stantons
that go back prior to 1800. I am also a descendant of this
family and am a descendant of one Philip Hare/Haar. From a
fellow named Norm Hare, I obtained some information that this Philip
Hare is likely the son of Philip Hare (Sr.) and wife Anna Maria -?-.
The elder Philip first settled in Berks County, Pa. before moving
to western Baltimore County, Md. His children were Christopher,
maybe Michael, Anna Maria, Anna Magdalena, Philip and Jacob. He
died in 1772. Norm also sent me an interesting baptismal record
from the Reformed and Lutheran Congregations, Manchester, Md (First
Record Book): Johann Heinrich of Philip Herer and wife Magdalena,
born January 4, 1779; baptized January 19. Sponsors: Heinrich
Gerlitz and Margaretha.
If you know where I'm going, we figure
our Philip was born about 1755 and his wife was born a few years
later. Looking at your Garlitz Family History, page 2, I
couldn't help but notice that there was a daughter born to John
Hendrey Garlitz and wife Maria Margareth before 1760. Judging by
the above church record, could Philip Hare's wife and the daughter of
John Hendrey be one and the same? To me it appears very likely.
My Philip went to the Garrett County, Md/Somerset County, Pa. area as
well as Henry, the next sibling of Magdalena. She would then
have spent her adult life close to her brother.
I'll be interested in your response.
Best regards,
Alfred Young
