• Notes

  Johannes settled in Frederick Twp., Philadelphia Co., PA (now Montgomery Co., PA). He received a land warrent in Philadelphia for 150 acres in Sep. 1734. He probably made a trip back to England as he arrived on the CHARMING NANCY i. Prior to 1750, he moved to Berks Co., Pennsylvania. (C-131) He is on record as being an Elder and Deacon at St. Joseph's Church (formerly Oley Hills) in Pike Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania. (C-357) This is where many of his grandchildren were baptized. (C-2408) According to one descendant's tradition, he was married 4 times, once to a American Indian. He and his family are supposedly buried in an unmarked grave across the street from the cemetery in Rough & Ready, Pennsylvania. Another possible son of this Johannes would be Sergt. Henry Harp who was born in 1735. He served as a Private and Sergeant in the 3rd Regiment, Ulster Co., NY troops under Colonel Pawling. He was born in Pennsylvania and died in Ulster Co., NY. In 1760 he married Lydia Wood. (C-714)
