Says Conrad and John arrived at Germantown, PA on 7 Oct 1765 (from Wurtemburg, Gy 1758?) Also said he died in 1791.

IMM: Genealogy of the Brumbaughs by G Marcus Brumbaugh, Section E pg 360: (E3) Conrad and his brother Johannes arrived at Germantown, PA 7 Oct 1765 on the ship Countess of Sussex from Rotterdam.

The author has a letter written 26 May 1888 by George Brumbaugh (grandson of Conrad) at age 86 in which he says "Conrad and Johannes came from Germany about 1765 and settled within 3 miles of Johnstown PA where David and George were born. Conrad died within 3 miles of Johnstown when I was too young to remember." A grandson of Conrad, Samuel of Perry TWP, Montgomery Co Ohio says he and his two bros came to America and from these three sprang all the Brumbaughs of Pennsylvania.
"Conrad settled in Lancaster (?) Co PA probably before 1761, as it is believed that all of his large family were born in PA, and youngest of his 13 was born 1788. After part of his children were born, he removed to Morrison's Cove but with Indian troubles he returned to the more thickly settled portions of the state. When he returned to Morrison's Cove he found the Indians in possession and they had destroyed everything he had left behind and killed all the remaining settlers. After Indian troubles were over he returned and lived here for some time, then removing to Allegheny Co PA and became one of the pioneers of that section of the state. He was well educated in Germany and taught school and became minister in the German Baptist church.

"The Genealogy of the Brumbacks" by John Brumbaugh, 929.273, Film #13833761, Mic # 908.876, pg 437. Says arrived Philadelphia 30 Sep 1754 from southern Germany-went to Franklin Co, Penn. Also on sheet, from Wurtemburg, Gy (chk out).

IMM: Genealogy of the Brumbaughs by G Marcus Brumbaugh, Section E pg 349:
(E1) Johannes Henrich Brumbach, the immigrant, and family arrived at Philadelphia on the ship Neptune, Capt Waire, #0 Sep 1754, sailing from Rotterdam and stopping at Cowes, England for provisions as was general custom during long voyages, filled with innumerable hardships.

A brief quotation bearing upon these hardships: "The journey for those who came from Southern Germany in 1754 lasted fully half a year amid such hardships as no one is able to describe adequately with their misery. The passage from Holland to Cowes alone often took 2-4 weeks.
Careful search thru rcds of Philadelphia and adjacent counties has not yet been exhaustively made; but so as completed, it has failed to show that Johannes Henrich tarried long in Penn before settling in Conecocheague dist, north of Hagerstown, Frederick Co (now Washington Co, MD) or in Franklin Co,PA immediately adjoining to the north. The Franklin Co rcds are imcomplete. He could have been the "John" enumerated in Fairfax Co, VA in 1785 (see Sec D)
There were four children, 3 born in Germany: Jacob, Conrad, Johannes, and George.
pg 349 [E2] Jacob2 ("Jockel") b Nov. 27,1734; about 1760 m and settled on a tract of land near
" Funkstown "—Hagerstown, Md., near [Cl] Johann Jacob1 Brumbach. About 1787 [E2] Jacob2 and his brother [E5] Georg2 (called " Yerrick " or " Yorrick " ) removed with the earliest pioneers to Morrison's Cove, then in Bedford Co., Pa. (Bedford was erected in 1771), now Blair Co., and located near the Rebecca Furnace property, occupying a large tract of land. The predatory Indian outbreaks of 1778 and 1779 caused all the early settlers to leave that locality and these brothers returned to their former homes on the Conecocheague river in Maryland—perhaps also Antrim Twp., Franklin Co., Pa. After the cessation of the Indian depredations these brothers re-occupied their Bedford Co. lands.
[C18] Eve3 (Brumbaugh) Snoeberger, b 1806, while yet in full possession of her excellent memory, in 1891 wrote and also said that she " always understood from my father that my grandfather ( [ C l ] Johann Jacob1 Brumbach) pg 350: was a cousin to Johannes Henrich1 Brumbach, and Johannes [E4] was known as the stocking weaver."
Children (4) :
[E2] + Jacob2, b Nov. 27, 1734; d Aug. 13, 1816.
[E3] + Conrad2, b , 1735; d , 1791.
[E4] + Johannes2.
[E5] + George2.

Johannes married Unknown Abt 1734, Germany. [Group Sheet]
