Title: Notes
Text:
The exact year of immigration for Frederick Schindel is not known. His name
appears in various spellings in the tax lists for Lampeter Twp., Lancaster Co., PA
from 1748 to 1774, which means that he was already settled and owned property
by that date. On certain tax lists, his occupation is given as a tailor. His name
also appears in the list prepared by the Rev. Johann Friedrich Handschuh dated
27 July 1748 of the communicants at the Trinity Church in Lancaster. The last
time he is listed as a communicant at Trinity is 9 October 1774. He paid pew
rent from 4 May 1766, the year that the new church was concentrated, until 1769
for his wife and himself, and only for himself until 1773 as his wife was not able
to attend. In the "Pew Rent Book", he is listed as Frederich Shindel over the
creek in reference to his place of residence on the Old Philadelphia Road, just
before the crossing of the Conestoga Creek upon entering Lancaster. This
triangular land, today bordered by the Old Philadelphia Road, the Philadelphia-
Lancaster Turnpike (Old Rte. 30, now Rte. 462), and Pitney Road is now
occupied by a Weiss Supermarket. In 1761 Frederick applied for naturalization,
and partook of the holy sacraments, which was a requirement, in Lancaster on
23 August. The naturalization was confirmed and recorded by William Allen on
10 September 1761. From 1775 until his death, Frederick Schindel's name
appears on the tax records for Manchester Twp., York Co., PA. At this time two
of his children had married and remained in Lancaster Co.: George Schindel to
Elizabeth Hambright and Anna Maria Schindel to George Hambright. George
took over the management of his father's land in Lancaster Co. and another son,
Ludwig remained in Lancaster Co. another two years before joining his father in
York Co. In York Co., Frederick first bought the estate of Jonas Leib in a
sheriff's auction in March of 1775 for 282 pounds. He purchased additional
acreage from Valentine Wilt, one of his neighbors, on 23 May 1787 and then
applied for a Land Warrant for 183 acres. This Warrant was finalized in which
the property was called "Fredericksburg" in 1789. He sold twelve acres to his son
Ludwig on 21 May 1792. Frederick turned over his larger farm to his son
Frederick and retired to a smaller farm of 25 acres. His widowed daughter,
Elizabeth Schaedel (or Shettel) lived with him during his years of retirement, and
in turn he left her some of his household goods in his will
HISTORY OF LANCASTER COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA, with Biographical
Notes of Many of the Pioneers and Prominent Men, by Franklin Ellis and Samuel
Evans (Philadelphia, Evans Press. 1883) East Lampeter Township, Excerpt from
p. 893. Jacob Graff.
This tract was first surveyed for Peter Yorkee by order of the London Company.
In 1792 Peter Yorkee sold all the rights to Jacob Graff, of New Strasburg.
Whether Jacob Graff resided on this land is not known, but it is supposed he did
not, as in the deed for this property which he gave to Theophilus Hartman in
1748 he was described as a resident of New Strasburg. This tract contained two
hundred and twelve acres, and at the death of Theophilus Hartman, his son,
Christian Hartman, took part of the tract and resided upon it until his death in
1825. The residue was sold to Henry Yank, tanner, of Lancaster, and Frederick
Shindle in 1769. Henry Yank sold his land to Frederick Shindle, who disposed of
his lands by deed of sale to his brother, George Shindle, about 1775. George
Shindle died in 1820, and left it by will to his daughter, Mrs. (Elizabeth) Metzger,
who left it by will to her son, the present owner, Michael S. Metzger. [NB.
George
was actually Frederick's son and died in 1821, not in 1820].
On the property which belongs to M. S. Metzger, there is a very old home,
supposed to have been built by Theophilus Hartman, as when the Shindle family
received the property they moved into it, and their descendants have had
possession of it ever since. The Graff tract was north of the provinical road in
the present village of Bridgeport.

Amen in the name of God. I, Frederick Schindel of Manchester Township, York County and the state of Pennsylvania, am of weak and sickly disposition and am therefore in this state of mind to write my last will and testament and intend to do this in the following manner: I command my body to the earth from which it is taken and that it be buried in a Christian manner by my survivors; my soul, however, I place into the hands of God who granted it to me. First, I bequeath to my son Frederick my plantation upon which he now resides, and make this bequest eternally to him and his heirs. From this place, Frederick shall give six hundred pounds as he has not only his own share but also that of his brothers and sisters. Furthermore, my son Frederick shall pay two hundred pounds one year after my death and thereafter fifty pounds per year. It is further my will that the twenty-five acres on which I now reside shall be sold in public auction as well as the entire valuable stock which I possess, except that my daughter Elizabeth Schaedel shall have aforehand the new wahtub, the little tub, all my bedthings and what belongs to them and all my kitchen china. It is further my bequest that my property shall be equally divided among my children who are George Schindel, and my daughter Anna Maria married to George Hambright, and my daughter Elizabeth, and my son Ludwig Schindel, and my son Frederick, and then my youngest daugther Susanna married to Jacob Rudisill. Further, it is my will that my son Ludwig Schindel must wait for that share which comes to him of what is now mine until the others of my heirs received that part of that inheritance which belongs to them. Finally, I choose as executors my son Frederick Schindel and my friend Peter Kern and realize this to be my last will and testament and show such with my signature:
Friedrich Schindel
