Research Notes:
"Pioneers of Second Fork" by James P. Burke
"Andreas Oberdorff (Andrew Overturf) resided in the village of Lindelbach, Weilheim County in the ancient Providence of Palatinate (now the state of Baden-Wurttenburg), Germany, a hilly, forested land that nears the border of France. The people of the Palatnates were severely depressed economically by many burdensome taxes. There were land rents, grazing fees, hunting fees, watch fees, plowing fees, food tax, tax on second hay harvest, tax on hand work rendered, the Prince's personal tax, chimney tax and water tax. Taxes were only limited to the imagination of those who ruled the land, and if one didn't have a creative imagination, he would copy a tax in an adjoining province. There was the Manumission Act, which in essence was a tax for those migrating from the province. Peasants worked from the dark hours of early morning to the dark hours of the evening to obtain a meager existence at best.
During this period of mass migration from Germany, there were agents known as Newlanders. These Newlanders would roam the countryside signing up people for passage to America, then known as New England. These Newlanders normally worked on a commission and to induce people to sign up they would quite often exaggerate the opportunities and life in the Promised Land. Many peasants entered into arrangements, indenturing themselves and members of their families for passage to the New World.
[Indenturing themselves meant binding themselves to work for another for a given length of time, as an apprentice to a master, or an immigrant to service in a colony.]
Andrew Overturf decided to migrate to America and bring his family with him. On January 17, 1772, he indentured himself and his six children to Hannah O'Scullion in Philadelphia, for a term of two years, two months. They were to serve as apprentices to learn the trade of making leather breeches.
On March 30, 1773, Andrew, now a widower with six children applied to the Count of Lowenstien, to whom he was subject, for a Certificate of Manumission to give him and his family permission to leave the County of Wertheim. On April 26, 1773, Andrew received from his father-in-law 210 florins (a unit of German currency in the form of gold and silver coins). Of the 210 florins, he had to pay a 5% Manumission tax amounting to 10 ½ florins, plus an additional 20% supplement tax on the balance of
199 ½ florins (40 florins). The ironical situation in Andrew's case was that if he had just ½ florin more, he would only be required to pay 10%, as all amounts 200 florins, or more were subject to a 10% tax; less than 200 florins, the tax rate was 20%.
Andrew departed Lindelbach and left behind a debt of 819 florins. The family began their journey to America from Weilheim and traveled down the Rhine River which flows north to Rotterdam, Holland. This leg of their trip took about four to six weeks to complete. One account contends that the Overturf's encountered a number of tollhouses on the river. After arriving in Rotterdam, the family was again detained, waiting for the ship Hope to sail for America to the port of Philadelphia.
Sailing from Europe, across the Atlantic to America in the 1700's was a long, hazardous trip, exposing the passengers to many hardships and dangers. On October 1, 1773 the hazardous and long ocean journey began. Listed on the ship's manifest were Andreas, Johann Michael Oberdorff, and Johann Berhart Rau. The ship manifest included males over 16, without reference to women and children under sixteen. Johann Michael (Andrew's oldest son) was born 1757, which would make him over 16 at the time of departure. Johann Berhart Rau applied for a Certificate of Manumission at the same time as Andrew, and it is likely the Rau family accompanied Andrew and his family from Weilheim.
When the Overturf's finally arrived in Philadelphia they had to go through a process of naturalization, swearing their allegiance to England and becoming subjects of the King. The next step was serving out their indentureship making leather breeches under the stewardship of Hannah O'Scullion. Andrew then acquired 100 acres of land in Northampton County.
On April 4, 1783, Andrew married for the second time to Elizabeth Barbara Fuchs in the Trinity Lutheran Church in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. This union brought forth five children.
In 1791, Andrew was operating a gristmill in Selinsgrove, PA. The tax records indicate he was assessed for 200 acres of land, two horses and a cow. Andrew sold the mill and shortly after, Andrew and his immediate family disappeared from the tax records for a period of time, as they apparently returned up the Susquehanna into the wilderness of Pennsylvania. Sometime between 1804 and 1806, he came to the Driftwood area to plant crops for shares during the summer months. In 1806, he came up the Sinnemahoning Creek to settle. Andrew built a two-room log hewn cabin on the left side of the river near the confluence of Bennett's Brand and the Sinnemahoning, becoming the second resident of Driftwood. He was quite well known throughout the area by the early settlers as the "Dutchman", as the elderly German spoke with a strong accent. His family and friends affectionately referred to him as "Uncle Billy".
When Andrew built his home at the entrance to Bennett's Valley, then known as the Second Fork, he established himself, so to speak, as keeper of the gate for the early arriving settlers to Bennett's Valley. The Dutchman's cabin was a regular stop for those proceeding up the Bennett's Branch, as well as those traveling on up the Sinnemahoning. It was also a favorite stop for those who enjoyed the homespun stories of the area's famous Dutch raconteur. Among others, William Luce and Captain Potter stayed overnight at Uncle Billy's on their way up the Bennett's Branch to settle.
There is a lengthy story about a preacher who came to Uncle Billy's home around 1820. He arrived on Saturday, and proposed to hold a preaching service on Sunday. Word was spread, and the worshipers gathered in, donned their toggery, which at best was but scanty habiliments, and congregated at Uncle Billy's bringing their dogs and guns. The congregation was seated - the service commenced - the text announced, and the preacher fairly engaged in its elucidation, when the dogs that were outside startled a deer, and drove him rapidly by the house. The congregation, forgetful of the proprieties of the occasion, sprang to their feet, crowded out of the house, and joined the dogs in rapid pursuit. Uncle Billy was too rheumatic and lame to join in the chase, but he hobbled to the door and seated himself with his back to the speaker. The minister quite chagrinned and mortified in a despondent tone remarked, "It's all in vain, in vain". Uncle Billy replied in his broken English: "I does not know by sure I tinks dey vill victim dem bees goot dogs, dere I Jordan's drive, and Coleman's bitch after im, and den tere is dem Jordan poys, dey been hell hounds der scires." As Uncle Billy predicted, the deer was captured. The minister never visited the area again for the purpose of preaching.
Andreas Oberdorff, having lived a hearty four score plus years, died January 1, 1821, leaving a number of descendants to carry on the Overturf name. His home in the wilderness of the western Pennsylvania frontier was the site of the first organized religious service in the Driftwood area, and served as the first election house for the first organized Township elections in Bennett's Valley"
From Snyder County Pioneers:
ANDREW OBERDORF (also Overdorf, Overdorff, Oberdorft etc..) was born in Germany . He sailed for America from rotterdam , Holland , In the British ship “Hope” Captain George Johnson, master. Be arrived at the port of Philadelphia October 1, 1773 . He was assessed In Penn Township for the first time in 1791, and lived In Selinsgrove, where he operated a gristmill. In the same year he sold his mill to Major Anthony Selin, The mill later was known as Schnure’s mill and was in operation until about 1920. Andrew served as a private in the 6th Pennsylvanian Regiment of the Continental Line but was discharged for physical disability. Henry and Herman may have been sons of Andrew.
HENRY OBERDORF, mason, was assessed in Penn Township
HERMAN OBERDORF may have been a son of Andrew Oberdorff. He was assessed in Beaver Township Lewisburg , Pa. November 22, 1823 . His wife was named Rosina, and his children were: George, Rececca, Mathias, Polly (Mrs. George Becker or Baker), Sallie (Mrs. John Treaster), Catherine (Mrs. Christian Knouse), and Lydia (Mrs. Booth.)

(2) Eva Catherine Doenstein
Children:
John Michael 1767 (died at 7 months)

Anna Maria Esther 1733- Aug 14, 1777
in the same church records as shown above for the first Andreas, there is an Andreas Oberdorf, widower, marrying Eva Catherine Doenstein on March 5 1782
Oberdorf Researcher Lauren Brantner has this to say regarding the two Andreas -
· Date: Mon, 21 Mar 2005 21:45:18 -0700
· From: Lauren Brantner
· Subject: Re: Andreas Oberdorf
The Andrew Oberdorf who married Anna Maria Esther Verdion in 1758 is the first immigrant Andrew who came as a single man in 1750. He married in 1758 - quite a few years before our Andrew came to America - in records she is Esther, or Maria. Don Yoder of the PA GermanSociety indicates that the Andrew who came in 1750 is married to Esther Verdion. The second marriage reads in the records if I recall correctly Andreas Oberdorf the widower. The last time I went to Salt Lake to the Mormon library I followed the other earlier Andrew Oberdorf through the records. He also belonged to the First Reformed Church . His wife died, he was widowed and I believe he remarried again to Eva Dorstein. The interesting thing is the Andrews were probably contemporaries in age and other Oberdorff researchers believe they were related. I found baptisms and burials of their children in the 1760’s before our Andrew came (probably when he was having some of his children too - Johan Michael would have been 16 in 1773 to be listed on the ship’s passenger list - bd. circa 1757). In total I found baptisms/and or burials for 7 of his and Esther’s children in First Reformed Church of Christ in Philadelphia . One of their sons was JohnMichael Oberdorf [same name as our Andrew’s oldest son] - he died in 1767 at age 7 months. There is also a 6 year old Andrew who died. Anna Maria Esther died and was buried Aug. 14, 1777 age 44 years. he then married Eva Dorstein. So each of them was married, lost a wife and married again. I have to tell you another researcher believes that our Andrew’s second wife was Eva Dorstein and she indicates that Johan Michael, Henry, Andrew and Jacob are the known children from the first wife, but she doesn’t say where she got that information. She also lists no children from the second marriage andshe has Andrew from our Andrew’s second marriage tangled up in the mix. She says Henry was born 1770, Married 14 Nov. 1794 and died in1853 in Penn Township Snyder County West Buffalo twp. Union Co. PA. and Elizabeth. John Christian married Sara Ann and he would have gone by Christian.
I have not further traced the Andrew and Eva Dorstein in the PA Churchrecords. I don’t believe the first immigrant Andrew ever left Philadelphia.
So.....you have these two Andrew Oberdorf marriages one in 1782 and the other in 1783. Other researchers including me believe that thebaptism below which occurred roughly a year after the marriage in 1784 is our Andrew Oberdorf. His oldest son from his second marriage, John Overturf was baptized in the Trinity Lutheran Church Lancaster , PA.
“Johannes Oberdorf, s. Andreas and Elizabeth; b. May 27, 1784 ; bapt.Aug. 7.” I think Barbara Fuchs was probably Elizabeth Barbara or Barbara Elizabeth and she too went by both her names. In the 1800 voting list she is listed as Elizabeth Overturf. Other scenarios are Eva died and he married within a year to Fuchs, but I don’t think thatis likely. Also possible is that he had a son named Andrew from his first marriage who gets into the mix - he certainly had a son Andrew inElk/Cameron Co. - that is supported by the Orphan’s Court Document. I can’t think he’d have had two but stranger things have happened. [Inthe German naming patterns if your name is John you are Johannes - if you have John as a saint’s name as in Johan Michael, your name isMichael and you never use your Saint’s name Johan for everyday use.]
What you get forced to do is to track all of the early Oberdorffs andtry to keep them separate. The earlier the time period, the fewer of them there are. That is why I followed the first immigrant Andrew’strail in the church records from 1758 to 1782. Since our Andrew was an indentured servant along with his whole family - he too was stuck in Philadelphia for awhile. I believe he then entered the Rev. War and was discharged (wounded). Many of the colonies could not pay wages to their rev war soldiers so they gave them military land bounties in lieuof their army pay. I think that is how our Andrew got out in the middle of nowhere in Driftwood, PA from Phildelphia. There are other Rev. War vets in the area too. It is very difficult to findin formation about it, but I haven’t given up looking.
Life is messy - so genealogy follows along!

John Barto (Jean Perdeau') 1712 – 1770
married
Mary Schehn 1718 – 1773
both were born in France
Arrived in America in 1730
The Barto family of Berks County are an old family of French Huguenot descent. The original form of the name is Perdeau. In his will he mentions his children as Isaac being his oldest child. His son John who was administrator of his will and his daughter Catherine. Isaac and his mother both turned down the administration of the will sighting the distance to Reading was to great for them to travel. Throughout the papers Bartho, Barto, and Barta were used interchangeably. When Mary died Isaac was administer of her will.
From "Memorials of the Huguenots In America, with Special Reference to their Emigration to Pennsylvania" by Rev. A. Stapleton. Page 66, fourth paragraph, "Sometime prior to 1735 Jean Perdeau (variously written Barto, Bardo, ect.) located in Colebrookdale, where he died at an advanced age in 1770, leaving a numerous posterity. (Per Lillian White)
He became a land owner 19 March 1745, before Berks County was formed from Philadelphia County.
He purchased 200 Acres for 400 pounds from Jacob and Catherine Bestler (Lester) on 18 March 1744.
He died 1770 in Oley Township, Berks Co., PA.
Mary was born about 1718. Date is estimated. She died in 1773 in Oley Twp., Berks Co., Pennsylvania. She had her estate probated in 1773 in Berks Co., Pennsylvania. Surname shown as Bartho on Berks Co. Register of Wills index.Spouse: Jean (John) BARTO. Jean (John) BARTO and Mary were married before 1734 in Pennsylvania. Place is assumed.

Jean (John) BARTO was born about 1714 in France. Date is estimated. He immigrated before 1730 to Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania. He has not been found on a ship's passenger list, so it is assumed that he was under the age of 16 when he arrived in 1730. However, Morton Montgomery references him as settling in Berks Co. in 1730, so he may have turned 16 the same year after his arrival. He lived in Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania in 1730. "Three of the name came to America in the early days, one John Barto locating in Berks county, Pa., in 1730, Isaac Barto prior to 1750 and Nicholas Barto in 1773. The Isaac Barto mentioned was a large taxable in Oley township, Berks county, in 1759, in which year he paid £14 tax. His descendants are still living in Washington township, that county." He lived in Colebrookdale Twp. Philadelphia Co., Pennsylvania in 1735. "Some time prior to 1735, Jean Perdeau (variously written Barto, Bardo, etc,.) located in Colebrookdale, where he died at an advanced age in 1770, leaving a numerous posterity."
He lived in Oley Twp., Berks Co., Pennsylvania in 1752. He paid taxes this year. He died in 1770 in Oley Twp., Berks Co., Pennsylvania. He had his estate probated in 1770 in Berks Co., Pennsylvania. Surname shown as Bartho on Berks Co. Register of Wills index.

The name Jean is changed to John often when going from French to English.
Once upon a time I was in contact with a woman named Lillian and she had a
copy of John (Jean)'s will. I believe she has passed to the other side. In
his will he mentions his children as Isaac his oldest child. His son John
who was the administrator of his will and his daughter Catherine. Isaac and
his mother both turned down the administration of the will sighting the
distance to Reading was to great to travel. Throughout the papers the name
Bartho, Barto, and Barta were used interchangeably. When Mary died Isaac was
the administrator of her will. The Bartos are of French Huguenot extraction, the French form of the name being Perdeau.
Spouse: Mary. Jean (John) BARTO and Mary were married before 1734 in Pennsylvania. Place is assumed. Children were: Isaac BARTO.

He would have had to at least been 21 years of age based on English common law which was what the colonial laws were modeled after. Also, at the age of 16, males began paying a poll tax. This could be where the 1750 date came from in the History of Berks Co. reference. Isaac may have actually been listed on a tax record with John. This would mean that for sure Isaac was born by at least 1738 and possibly by 1734.
He lived in Oley Twp., Berks Co., Pennsylvania in 1759. "Three of the name came to America in the early days, one John Barto locating in Berks county, Pa., in 1730, Isaac Barto prior to 1750 and Nicholas Barto in 1773. The Isaac Barto mentioned was a large taxable in Oley township, Berks county, in 1759, in which year he paid £14 tax. His descendants are still living in Washington township, that county." He appeared in the census in 1790 in Oley Twp., Berks Co., Pennsylvania. CENSUS YEAR: 1790 STATE: PA COUNTY: Berks DISTRICT: Oley ENUMERATOR: Mark Lotz

JOHN BARTO and three brothers were traders, and concealed themselves for some time to prevent being forced into the ‘British army during the Revolutionary struggle for American independence; they finally succeeded in escaping to America, where they separated, John locating in Berks county, Pennsylvania, where he married Elizabeth Beeber and reared a family of seven children: Abraham; David; Daniel; Christiana, who married a Mr. Gray; Mary, who married George Cleese; Hannah, who married a Mr. Hamilton; and Catherine, who married Sam Hoff. John Barto died in 1834, followed by his wife two years later, both in the faith of the Presbyterian church.
DANIEL BARTO, a farmer by occupation, son of John Barto, removed from Berks county, Pennsylvania, to Lycoming county, and located on a farm in what is now Penn township. He married Catherine Sellers, and was the father of six children: George, deceased; Sarah, who is the widow of Abraham Day, deceased; Samuel, deceased; John G.; Anna, who married William Farney, and Mary, who is the widow of Richard Bartlow. Daniel Barto died February 10, 1867, and his wife died July 24, 1888, aged ninety-six years; they were both members of the Lutheran church. Mr. Barto always took an active interest in politics; in the early part of his life he was a Democrat, but at the organization of the Whig party, he joined its ranks, and naturally drifted into the Republican party.
possible for our Samuel? He died in 1884, book was edited in 1892 - but no mention of wife and children here, and mother and father would have died after him, I don't think the dates work.. I'm pretty sure Samuel was roughly the same age as Daniel
JOHN G. BARTO, farmer, was born in Lycoming county, Pennsylvania, October 17, 1827, son of Daniel and Catherine (Sellers) Barto. He received a common school education, and began his business life at farming, which he has followed all of his life with the exception of a few years which were devoted to lumbering. April 5, 1849, he was married to Miss Savilla Baker, daughter of. Samuel Baker. She was born, November 11, 1828, and to her union with Mr. Barto have been born eleven children: Emma, who was born in 1851 and died December 27, 1890; Sarah, who was born in 1853 and died February 1, 1887; Samuel, born in 1855, who married Catherine Kepner; Francis L., who was born in 1858, and died June 5, 1884, in Texas; Clinton W., born in 1860, a merchant at Washington, Iowa, married to Miss Emma Wright; John H., born in 1862; Lloyd M., born in 1865; Cora A., who was born October 31, 1867, and died January 20, 1882; Carrie, who was born May 15, 1870, and died in 1882; Maggie, who was born in July, 1872, and Harry J., born in 1875. Mr. Barto and wife belong to the Mt. Zion Lutheran church; for the last thirty-eight years he has been agent for the West Branch Mutual Fire Insurance Company, and is one of the stockholders of the paint works at Rupert, Pennsylvania. In politics he is a Republican, and filled the office of school director for nine years. He is a member of Penn Alliance, No. 202.

OLIVER S. BARTO, who owns and conducts the "Farmers Hotel" at
Watsontown, has been the owner of that establishment since 1901 and has
managed it himself since 1902. Though he had no previous experience in
the hotel business he has made a success of the enterprise, so that the
place has not only been profitable to him, but a credit to the borough.
Mr. Barto is a native of Turbutville, Northumberland county, born Feb.
19, 1874, and comes of a family which has long been established in
Pennsylvania, Berks county having been the home of his ancestors for
