Update: Andrew Hoover Jr. of Fayette County
One of the pieces of data I have for Andrew Hoover Jr. has intrigued and perplexed me. During her research in this Hoover family, Luella Schuamburg Hoover was sent a deed from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania in which Andrew named Yost Herbaugh as his attorney to receive from Catherine Liebrich, relict of Nicholas Liebrich, late of… read more
John Hoover of Licking County, Ohio
If you recall from my post Hoover Families in Licking County, Ohio I was especially interested in John and Barbara Hoover of Franklin and Newark Townships. John was of interest to me because the census information indicated that he was of the appropriate age to be my John2 Hoover (Andrew1). A review of the Revolutionary… read more

Lancaster County Deeds, Hoover Grantor Index, Part I

If the identification of him being from Ellerstadt is correct, then Andrew had two—possibly three—older brothers who immigrated to the US ahead of him. I wanted to look into those families and the families… read more
George Hoover (ca 1735/40-1813)
George2 Hoover (Michael1) was likely born circa ca 1735-1740, possibly in Germany or Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Assuming George was 21 years of age at the birth of his first child in 1761, he was likely born by 1740.[1] Although no direct proof has been found linking him as a son of Michael Huber, a strong… read more
Andrew Hoover Jr. (ca 1755/61—?)
Andrew2 Hoover (Andrew1) was born circa 1755—1761, probably in the Leitersburg—Hagerstown—Ringgold, Maryland area. Andrew may have died sometime between 1792 and 1800 as he does not appear in the 1800 census for Fayette County. He went to the Fayette County area (then Westmoreland County) by 1780, possibly as early as 1769 with his brother Jacob…. read more

Henry2 Hoover (Andrew1) was born about 1/4 Dec 1748, probably in Ellerstadt, Germany. He came to the United States with his family in 1754 at the age of 6. He lived in Maryland most likely through at least 1776 when he was fined for not contributing to the Revolutionary war effort.[1] He went with his… read more
