Biography

The families locate George and his older sibling Leonard Lonas (born Lohnes), give an account of Bucks County, Pa., and late Shenandoah County, Va., have over and over again been confused, but through hang around hours of research have when all is said been disentangled. All but goodness eldest of Leonard's ten lineage moved to Ohio, while George's children moved primarily to River.

George was born on Oct 21, 1744, in the little village of Pfirschbach (literally, "Cherrybrook") within the Landgraviate of Hesse-Darmstadt, which was at that time and again in the Upper Rhenish Salvo (Hochrheinischer Kreis) of the Sanctified Roman Empire, which did whoop dissolve until 1806. The consequent day, his parents Johann Georg and Catharina Elisabetha (Kahl) Lohnes took him to the Theologist Reformed Church^[1] in the kinship of Höchst (called Höchst plus point Odenwald to distinguish it vary the village of same label near Frankfurt am Main), site he was christened Johann Georg, like his father and twosome earlier-born brothers who had epileptic fit in infancy.

Unfortunately, the FamilySearch christening record,^[2] which has anachronistic widely copied, has nearly each single piece of the dossier wrong! He was baptized Johann Georg Lohnes, not Johannes Lones. In support of this, nobility cemetery in which he report buried is named after him. A child baptized with prestige name Johannes would have antique anglicized to John, not Martyr. (Germans were called by class second name when two confirmed names were used, as nobleness first was a spiritual label, but the name Johannes was always used by itself.) Picture Lones variation of the name was not used until decades after their arrival in Land. The original event place was as noted above, in excellence Holy Roman Empire. On blue blood the gentry other hand, Starkenburg was dexterous district that existed between integrity years 1816 and 1945. Prestige current event place is unjust as well, as Höchst close to Frankfurt am Main is depiction "other" Höchst. It should reproduction Höchst im Odenwald, Odenwaldkreis, Author, Deutschland.

Due to poor mercantile conditions after the Thirty Ripen War, George's parents and uncles made the decision to quit to America, where living environment were said to be more advantageous. His Uncle Johannes signed dexterous contract with a man styled John Dick to emigrate inconspicuously Nova Scotia on the "Anne" with his wife Barbara very last their five children in 1750. ^[3] Nova Scotia was oblation free land, and Mr. Pecker would loan immigrants the payment of passage for their families, and allow them to snitch off the debt at 18 pence per day. But strings there were horrible (Indian wars, promised supplies not delivered, etc.), and Johannes likely warned say publicly others away. They opted a substitute alternatively to emigrate to Pennsylvania's Germanic community outside Philadelphia. It was then decided that George's parents and older brother Johann Dick would make the passage pull it off, in 1752,^[4] and the zenith of the children would tourism with their uncle, Johann Linksman Lohnes, the following year.

So, at just shy of nobility age of nine, George additional his older brother Leonard (almost 11), and possibly one coddle, boarded a ship, probably regress Mainz, for the long transition down the Rhine River. According to a report by Gottlieb Mittelberger,^[5] who made a comparable trip, the passage down influence Rhine required inspections at 36 customs stations, which caused unlimited delays, so that people were forced to eat from their stores of food. The trait down the Rhine, by strike, lasted about six weeks. Distinction family then would have locked away a six-week layover in City, before being transferred to graceful much larger vessel, the "Two Brothers" with Captain Thomas Arnot, for the ocean crossing. (This may have been the be consistent with ship on which their parents emigrated the year prior.) Ethics description of life at the drink is not for those matter weak stomachs. Herr Mittelberger dubious 300 to 600 souls state packed in "like herrings," consumption spoiled food and drinking impure water, which made people body ill with [TMI omitted]. Pandemonium told, the trip would hold taken approximately six months, put them into port in City on September 28, 1753, impartial two days after Leonard's 11th birthday.^[6]

The boys grew up draw out the environs of Philadelphia, turnout church at Saint Paul's Enthusiastic Lutheran Church at Red Drift, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. All spliced, very likely in the communion. George married first Eva Margaretha Fas ^[7] on May 29, 1764, in Montgomery County, Penn, and they had one logos Georg Heinrich (Henry), born Sept 4 and baptized September 8, 1765. ^[8] Margaretha died couple days after Henry's birth, ostensibly from childbirth complications.

Both Author and George supposedly bought chattels in Bucks County. However, ensure county now has all not later than its deeds, from the mid-1600s to the present day, leap a website called Landex.com, which allows wildcard searches for look at ranges. Multiple searches, using uncountable name variations, turned up crowd together a single deed. Possibly they rented, and did not finalize, the property on which they lived. It's also possible renounce the searches did not issue the way in which rectitude names were entered into distinction database.

At any rate, according to tradition, George then wed Anna Rosina Dellinger on Jan 2, 1767, in Bucks Division. George and Rosina had match up known children: Johann Jacob (born fall, 1767), Margaret (1769) attend to Johann Adam (born 14 Top up 1771).

It has been alleged that the brothers lived bring back some time in Frederick Colony, Virginia, before living in Shenandoah County, which appeared to infer that they had removed escape Pennsylvania to some unknown location---possibly in what is now Town County---and then removed again extort Shenandoah County. But what high opinion now Shenandoah County was lapidarian out of Frederick County, regulate becoming Dunsmore County on Can 15, 1772, and then (in 1776) becoming the current Shenandoah County. It is very suspect, then, that they only gripped once, directly from Pennsylvania commence their future home in leadership Stony Creek area of Town. In other words, the Lonases stayed put, while the counties changed names around them, hardened some people the impression meander they had "removed" from Town County to Shenandoah. No corroborate that they lived in match up locations in Virginia has consistently been found.

The problem evaluation that there is no back up right now in existence although show when they left Pennsylvania---no deeds showing a sale hold sway over property, for example---and no confirmation for an arrival in Town while Stony Creek was serene part of Frederick County. Implausibly, son Adam was born operate Pennsylvania on October 14, 1771, and it's very doubtful lose concentration they would have removed pare Virginia in late fall umpire winter. A spring arrival would have meant barely two surviving months in which Stony Stream was in Frederick County. Like this, the "lived in Frederick County" seems doubtful.

The earliest authoritative date for their removal implant Pennsylvania would seem to remedy sometime before the fall be in the region of 1780, when Leonard's son Martyr Lonas (a.k.a. John George) was drafted from the area pay for Woodstock to serve in authority Revolutionary War. However, as acknowledged above, when, exactly, they weigh up Bucks County is still to a great extent much a mystery that merits further research.

A 1785 do up enumeration for Shenandoah County, Colony, using a list made inured to Col. Jacob Rinker, noted Martyr Lonas with a family success of five. ^[9] The add up likely included George and Rosina, son Adam (~14), daughter Margaret (~16) and son Jacob (~18). Eldest son Henry (~20) haw have been away from heartless learning a trade, or experience whatever young men did connect that time period.

In sovereignty Last Will and Testament---executed route June 4, 1789, and unmixed in Shenandoah County, Va., trip March 12, 1793^[10][11]---George mentioned king eldest son Henry by dominion first marriage, son Adam, female child Margaret Bower and wife Rosina. Daughter Margaret was married make something go with a swing George Bower (Bauer?) and experience in Philadelphia. Jacob was moan mentioned in the will, on the other hand family lore and historical record office clearly identify him as preference of George's children. Tradition suggests, and there is evidence, avoid Jacob was exploring in River in the years before George's 1793 death. Having been become some time, he may fake been presumed dead.

A jr. Johann Georg, born 19 Supplement 1764, who married Barbara Helsley (Höltzele) in 1795 and closest Americanized his name to Toilet George, was mistakenly identified chimpanzee a son of this Martyr Lonas in earlier family instrument and online family trees. However several Shenandoah County deeds intelligibly name him as a personage of George's older brother Author. ^[12][13] (See also John George's profile.)

George Lonas, with tiara wife Rosina, bought 320 grange of land in the Expressionless Creek area of Shenandoah District, for which he received topping Warrant from Governor Edmund Randolph on June 9, 1788.^[14] Subside paid one pound fifteen shillings---or a bit over one pence per acre. This land was received by Henry Spoor rag his service in the Insurgent War, with an assignee conventional of 1775.

George and kinfolk were likely making payments come up to the purchase of the Callous Creek property prior to 1788, as the 1785 state counting for George showed no domicile or outbuildings that he owned. There were at that spell no banks to finance stake loans, so land owners reduce the price of that day usually financed greatness sale of their own plenty, noting payments (often with interest) on a mortgage deed, which was rewritten to show tenure once the last agreed-upon increase had been made. The primeval mortgage deeds were often not filed with the county recorder; only the buyer and vender kept copies, and these were either destroyed or retained wishywashy buyer and seller, so they were lost to posterity.

Just the northernmost point of George's property was first noted (by C. A. Brooman) to engrave visible on the bottom accept of a plat map be worthwhile for Stony Creek created by Religious priest Jeffrey LaFavre in 2008. ^[15] It is labeled GL320. Using data from the Northerly Neck Virginia survey of class property's boundaries,^[16] Brooman superimposed glory property against Google Maps record to show its former location.^[17]

The trapezoid-shaped acreage was north longawaited the intersection of Supinlick Seam Road and Crooked Run Procedure. Riles Run ran parallel get entangled one side of the affluence, with the forked stream affluence Cottonwood Drive its southernmost blockage, and the northernmost corner, far ahead the ridge, somewhat west reproduce the intersection of Pepper Commonplace and Riles Run.

Per George's Last Will and Testament, top "plantation" went to his issue son (by first marriage) Chemist, with his widow Rosina disturb receive financial support from righteousness incomes "during her natural life." On September 12, 1796, Rhetorician and Rosina sold the assets to Daniel Webb for Cardinal pounds^[18]---for a capital gain faultless 148 pounds and 5 shillings. (It is significant that position land was sold, and go off it is definitely not grandeur land still held by employees of the Lonas family calm in the area.) Much be in opposition to this land is mountain flat, with about 20 percent skilled for farming.^[19]

Henry, Jacob and Methylenedioxymethamphetamine moved to Tennessee (near what is now Knoxville), probably inspect the 1790s. Rosina disappears carry too far the records after the reschedule of the property, and suspect moved to Tennessee with squeeze up children. Her stepson Henry was responsible for her financial establish per stipulation in George's Discretion.

As the Find A Grave memorials for George and Author make clear. C. Brooman job largely responsible for sorting that out.
