They landed in Philadelphia 27 September 1752 and purchased lots in Maryland from 1776 on. John was a skin dresser by trade. John d in 1784 and is probably buried in the Lutheran Cemetery in Sharpsburg, MD.

The children of John and Christiana were:

2 Daniel FOX b 1749
+3 Frederick FOX b 10 May 1751
4 Magdelin FOX b 1753
5 Michael FOX b 1755
6 Rachel FOX b 1757



GENERATION NO. 2

3 Frederick FOX (John1) b 10 May 1751 in Hesse-Nassau, Germany m (1) on 1 Mar 1773, Catherine BOOKER b 1 May 1748 in Frederick, MD dau of Margaret b abt 1726 and Bartholomew BOOKER b abt 1722. Catherine d 1 Nov 1800 in Frederick, MD and is probably bur in the Lutheran and Reformed Churchyard in Middletown, MD. Frederick m (2) (between 1800 and 1807), Susannah née SCHUETT YOUNG, widow b 1751, who had two daughters, Mary M. YOUNG and Elizabeth YOUNG. Frederick d 27 Feb 1837 in Franklin, OH.

During the Revolutionary War, Frederick served as a drummer in Lieutenant Colonel Hay's Company, Tenth Pennsylvania Regiment from 1777 to 1781. This Regiment was commanded by Colonel Richard Humpton and engaged in battles of Brandywine, Germantown, etc.

Frederick owned lands in Maryland and Virginia. After selling some of these Maryland lands he and 32 other people emigrated to Ohio in the early days of the canvas covered wagons--coming by way of Wheeling, West Virginia, and arrived in Franklin, Warren County, Ohio in the Fall of 1807.

The emigrating group consisted of 7 families:

1. Frederick FOX and 2nd wife Susannah (Schutt) YOUNG Fox; stepdaughter Mary M. YOUNG and son Joseph
2. Christiana and George METHERD and 5 children
3. Mary Magdalena and Jacob BENNER and 5 children
4. George and Elizabeth LINK
5. Daniel B. and Susannah and 2 children
6. Elizabeth and John LEITER and 1 child
7. Elizabeth YOUNG and Andrew BRININGER and 2 children


"On December 28, 1807 Frederick FOX purchased from Joseph & Jane Parks the northwest quarter Section 15, Township 2, Range 5 for $985. Joseph Parks was the Patantee of this tract (which now forms northwest corner of Clearcreek Township, Warren County.) The buildings stood near the southeast corner of this tract. The House stood north and south, and was built of hewed logs chinked and daubed, and was not weather boarded. It consisted of 6 rooms: main part 3 rooms on first floor: upstairs divided into 2 rooms, and a kitchen to the east side. This house stood on the west side of the creek, slightly south of west from the present brick dwelling of Charles Welsh. (Depression in ground on hill said to be from cellar of this house). George FOX, one of 7 emigrating families, resided in a log cabin (near his father's home) which stood about due east of afore described log house but on the east side of creek and about 160 yards southwest of the present brick of Charles Welsh. It stood north and south and consisted of 4 rooms--two on first and two on second floor. Between this 4 room cabin and the road (which is the south boundary of tract) stood a distillery. (Evidently where stood a bellflower apple tree and where stones encasing a well were found.) George FOX and Elizabeth (LINK) FOX resided in this house until 1833, when they erected the present brick residence. (Built in 1833 as related to Mr. and Mrs. Charles Welsh by Elizabeth Ann FOX MEASE whose mother was Catherine FOX FOX, the daughter of George and Elizabeth.) Elizabeth Ann remembered hearing her mother tell of helping to cook for the men who burned the brick to build the present Welsh brick. Elizabeth Ann, at an advanced age, returned to visit the "FOX-WELSH" farm and tried to recall and locate old landmarks (trees etc.) as she remembered them in her girlhood when she visited her grandparents (George and Elizabeth FOX). She told too, that the present log barn had already been built before the building of the present brick house began. North of the buildings Mr. Frederick FOX erected a saw mill--one of the first in the locality. The site of the location of this mill is very evident today, also with the race along the creek. He lived on the farm until the death of his (2nd) wife Susannah. He then made his home with his daughter Elizabeth (Mrs. John Leiter) until his death 1847. (Now buried with Susannah in the St. Johns Gebhart churchyard.) [Ref4]
