One who comes from Freising is a "Freisinger." Freising, now a suburb of Munich, Germany, was a fortified medieval town, long under control of the Catholic Archbishops. Probably some long ago ancestor set forth from that area. By the 18th century, there were Freisingers sparsely scattered throughout Germany and Austria, many Catholic and some embracing Protestant faith. 1 Because the birthplace of our emigrant ancestor has not been discovered, the story begins in America.

Ludwig Friderich Freisinger [64] arrived in the port of Philadelphia on Wednesday, 16 Oct 1754 aboard the ship Peggy. 2 Captain James Abercrombie had sailed the Peggy from Rotterdam to Gosport and thence to America. The passengers, 108 souls from Württemberg and the Palatinate, were immediately directed to the Philadelphia Court House where they took an oath of allegiance to their new country. The Worshipful Charles Willing, Esquire, Mayor, presided while Ludwig Fridrich Freisinger signed his name with small, neat handwriting.3

Unfortunately, we have no records of Ludwig's activities during his first nine years in America. It is quite likely that he served as an indentured servant in the Philadelphia area. Under this system, a person of means would pay the ship's passage fee for an arrival. The immigrant then would work for a specified number of years to pay back the debt.

The first evidence of Ludwig Frisinger in Lancaster County was in 1763 when he served as a witness to the sale of three acres of land in Warwick Township from Peter Raffensberger to George Gayer and Isaac Bart. 4 Soon thereafter, Ludwig married Elizabeth Bletz [65], the daughter of Frederick Bletz [130] and Ann Elizabeth ___ [131] of Warwick Township. 5 Their son Johannes was born in Lancaster County in 1766. 6 A son, Ludwig, Jr. was baptized in Lancaster in 1768. 7

In 1769, Lutwick Freisinger was taxed in Manheim Township, but his name did not appear on the tax lists there the following year. 8 Sometime around 1770 the family moved across the Susquehanna River to Windsor Township in York County. A fraktur commemorating the birth of Jacob [32] in 1773 states that he was born in Windsor Township. 9 Ludwig and Elizabeth's daughter Anna Maria may also have been born there. Few birth records from the early churches in that area exist, and none have been located for these children. Ludwig's name did not appear on the 1775 Windsor Township tax assessment list, dated 8 Dec 1774. 10

When Ludwig purchased the farm in York County which was to be his final home on 1 Nov 1775, the deed stated that he was from Windsor Township, York County. 11 For the sum of "twenty pounds lawful money of Pennsylvania," John Demind sold thirty-seven and one-half acres of land in Dover Township to Ludwig Frysinger, mason, of Windsor Township. 12 The tract adjoined lands of John Spade, Jacob Miller, and Michael Long. Although the deed stated that the price was paid in full at the time of signing, Ludwig's name did not appear on the Dover Township tax lists in 1777 and 1779. It appears that record keeping was lax during the confusion of the Revolutionary War years.

Money and provisions were needed to support the long war. Heavy assessments were laid upon those men not in active service who were classified as in the home guards or militia. In May of 1779, a three pound fine for non-performance of military duty was levied against Ludwig Frysinger of Cap't May's Company. 13 This amount was considerably less than the 15 to 20 pound levies against some of Ludwig's more prosperous neighbors.

As the war continued and intensified, there was also the problem of finding enough men to fight. The Pennsylvania Assembly passed "An Act to compleat the Quota of the Federal Army" which put the burden to find recruits on the local communities. Along with the January 1781 tax assessments came the Proclamation: " . . . you are classed together, and required to provide, in fifteen Days from this Date, one able-bodied Recruit for the Continental Army, to serve during the War; such Recruit, when enlisted and entered in the Army, to be entitled to receive from the Public a Suit of Cloaths each Year, and to be entitled at the End of the War to Two hundred Acres of Land, and all other Pay, Gratuities, Exemptions, to which other Soldier in the Line of this State shall be entitled. Such Recruit, when engaged by you, is to be taken to some Justice of the Peace for his Approbation, and to be attested, and then delivered by you to the Lieutenant or Sub-Lieutenant of the County. - On Failure hereof, your Class will be liable to pay Fifteen Pounds Specie, State Money, or the new Continental Money, issued persuant to the late Laws of this State, or an Equivalent in old Continental Money, viz. Eleven Hundred and Twenty-five Pounds, to be levied upon you respectively, as the Taxes now are." Each community had to come up with a recruit by March 1. Ludwig Freisinger's name was 24th on the list of neighbors residing in the "First Class of Dover Township." 14

Ludwig's county tax in 1781 was one shilling and five pence. In 1782, another £1.5 was required of Ludwig Freisinger for the special Appeal Warrants for the State Supplies. On the 1783 Dover Township returns, Ludwig Frisinger's possessions, valued at 14 pounds and taxed eight shillings and two pence, included 30 acres of land, two horned cattle, two sheep, and one house. At that time, the household was comprised of four males, and three females.

After the Revolutionary War had ended, on 16 Sep 1786, Ludwig Frysinger had a survey made of his 36 acres and 137 perches of land in Dover Township. 15 When the first United States census was conducted in 1790, the household of Ludiwick Frisinger in Dover Township had two men age 16 or over, three boys under 16, and three females. 16

The 1792 Dover Township assessment was the last for Ludwick Frisinger, his 36 acres, and two cows. On 19 May 1792, Letters of Administration were granted to Elizabeth Frysinger on behalf of the estate of Ludwick Frysinger who had died intestate. 17

His friend Andreas Miller had made an inventory of the estate on 8 May 1792. 18 At the time of his death, Ludwig's most valuable possessions were his livestock. He owned a black and white cow, a red and white cow, and a bull, each valued over three pounds, and one pig, two sheep, and a big and a small goat. In addition to the usual household and farm accouterments, Ludwig left the tools of a mason and a metal square. He had a scarf, a linen jacket, monocles, and a pair of glasses. He left a prayer book, a Bible, and two songbooks.

Elizabeth [65] lived 26 years after Ludwig died. Widow Freisinger continued to pay taxes on the 36-acre farm until about 1796. It is likely that one of the children took over the farm then. David Fetrow was holding the land at the time of Elizabeth's death.

After Elizabeth died in 1818, 19 John Freysinger, oldest son, petitioned the Orphans Court for settlement of the estate. Following the usual custom, the sheriff and "twelve good and lawful men of his Bailiwick" determined that the "Plantation and Tract of Land" in Dover Township (now fifty-four acres) could not be divided among the eight heirs without "prejudice to or spoiling the whole." It was agreed that John would purchase the tract for the appraised amount of eight hundred and ten dollars, and would pay respective shares to his brothers and sisters within one year. Jacob [32] was to receive two shares because his brother Peter had conveyed his inheritance to Jacob. 20

David Fetrow was administrator of Elizabeth's estate. A misunderstanding between Fetrow and Jacob Frysinger [32] was taken to the Court of Common Pleas of York County. On 24 Feb 1819, arbitrators mutually agreed upon ruled that the sum of ninety-four dollars out of the assets in Elizabeth's estate should be paid to Jacob Freysinger. 21 The final settlement of her estate was filed on 11 May 1819. 22

The burial places of Ludwig Freysinger [64] and his wife Elizabeth Bletz [65] are unknown.

Back in York, on 18 Nov 1797 Peter married Susan Catharine Colman.

Jacob Frysinger [32], 1773-1845

Jacob Freysinger [32] was born on 24 Oct 1773 A Taufschein ornamented with delicate red and yellow flowers commemorated his birth.

Diesen beyden Ehegatten
als Ludwig Freysinger und seine ehelichen Hausfrau Elisabeth
eine geborne Plessin ist ein Sohn zur Welt geboren, wie weider folget:
Dieser Jacob Freysinger ist geboren im Jahr unsers Herrn und Heilandes JESU CHRISTI 1773
den 24ten Tag October um [blank] Uhr im Zeichen de [blank] getauft den [blank]
von Herrn Wagner Reformirter Prediger und Diener des Worts nach Christi
Befehl Matth. 28 Vers 19. Die Taufzeugen sind Johann Friederich Lieberknecht
und seine Frau Catharina. Dieser Jacob Freysinger ist geboren und getauft worden
in Amerika, im Staat Pennsylvania in York County und Windsor Taunschip.

To this married couple
Ludwig Freysinger and his lawful wife Elizabeth
born Plessin, was a son born to the world, as follows:
This Jacob Freysinger was born in the year of our Lord and Savior, JESU CHRISTI 1773
the 24th day of October at ____ hour in the sign of ____, baptized the ____
by Rev. Wagner Reformed preacher and servant of the words of Christ's
command Matt. 28. verse 10. The sponsors are Johann Friederich Lieberknecht
and his wife Catharina. This Jacob Freysinger was born and baptized
in America, in the state of Pennsylvania, in York County and Windsor Township.

Pastor Wagner was John Daniel Wagner, 1750-1810. A Reformed minister ordained in 1772, he was pastor at Kreutz Creek, Hellam Township from 1771-1786. The red-ink calligraphy and the colors used for ornamenting the document are very similar to those appearing on the Taufschein of Jacob's son Jacob born in 1809. The fact that specific information concerning the hour and sign of birth and the date of baptism are missing, also strongly suggest that the above document was created at a later date, probably after the birth of Jacob [16]. 23

Jacob's name was not included on the tax lists until he was 26 years old. He may have been serving an apprenticeship elsewhere. When he did appear on the 1799-1806 Dover Township assessments he was listed as a weaver, a single man, owning 35 acres 24 and a cow.

On the 1808 tax list, Jacob was no longer listed as single! 25 Jacob Freysinger and Catharina were sponsors for a Jacob Finck baptized at Quickel's Church on 20 Mar 1808. 26 Jacob's wife was Catharine Miller [33]. The names of her parents are not known for certain. 27

Jacob and Catharine's son Jacob [16] was born on 16 Nov 1809 and baptized at Quickel's on 24 Dec 1809. 28 At the time of the 1810 census, Jacob's household consisted of one man and one woman between the ages of 26-45, and a boy under 10. Another woman over age 45 and a girl between 10 and 16 lived with them. 29

From 1807 to 1818, Jacob was taxed in Newberry Township on 35 acres "formerly Ludwig Frisingers," and also on 42 acres in Dover Township. He had purchased the 35 acres in Newberry Township from his brother on 22 Mar 1806. 30 This tract adjoined the land of their late father. A few weeks later he had purchased the additional seven acres in Dover Township from his brother John. 31 The 1813 Newberry tax list indicated that Jacob was living in "D'town," (the town of Dover). When Conewago Township was formed in 1818 from parts of both Dover and Newberry Townships, all of Jacob's land fell within the new township. His family was listed in the 1820, 1830, and 1840 censuses of Conewago Township. 32

In 1819 Jacob Freisinger, weaver, was assessed on 89 acres, one horse and one cow appraised at $584, his tax was 78 cents. 33 On 12 Nov 1825, Jacob and Catharine sold 16 acres in Conewago Township (part of his father's original tract) to his brother John. 34 In 1831, he sold seven acres of land to Moses Bear. 35 Jacob Frysinger "old, weaver" was taxed on the remaining 65 acres. An additional lot of 5 acres was sold to John Metzger in 1838. 36 From 1841 until his death, Jacob was taxed on 54 acres.

On the 1844 and 1845 Conewago Township Assessments, Jacob Frisinger, Sr. was listed as "infirm." According to family records, he died on 21 Apr 1845. On 25 Apr 1845, Jacob Frysinger, Jr. and Jacob Meyer of Conewago Township requested an Administration Bond to settle the estate of Jacob Frysinger, Sr. 37 An inventory of his goods and chattels, filed with the Court on 3 May 1845, included the following items: "one Cow, 3 Sheeps, 2 hogs, one Case of Drawers, one Bed and bedsheet, 2 Do Do [i.e., ditto], 1 Coverlet & Bed Close, 1 Stove and pipe, 1 Do Do, a half Doz of Chairs, 1 Table, 2 Benshes, a pair of Stylyarts, one Clock, 5 yds of Cloth, 1 winegar Barrel, 1 weaver loom & imblements, a Lot of potatoes, one Chest, one wool wheel, a lot of Dryed Apples, a Lot of appel-butter, one Barrel of winegar, a Lot of Bags, Spinning whel & reel, one Meat stand, 2 Flax hackels, a lot of Toe yarn, 1 Butter Jurn, 1 Coper Keddel, 2 Iron pots, a Lot of Sand, a Lot of Kichon furniture, Grubing Hoe and Sundres, a Lot of Books." 38 The estate was settled on 8 Aug 1848 with a balance of $237.21 to be distributed to the heirs. 39

On 26 Dec 1848, the heirs signed a release from further claims:

Know all men by this presence that we John Freisinger and Samuel Zorger and his wife Catharina late Catharina Freisinger and Elisabeth     Wagoner late Elisabeth Freising, Levi Wagoner guardian of Susanna and Lusian Wagoner miner children of Sarah Wagoner late Sarah Freisinger dec'd. Isaac Harrow and his wife Bolly late Bolly Freisinger and John Sipe and his wife Lovey late Lovey Freisinger all heirs and Leagel Representatives of Jacob Freisinger Senior of the township of Conewago in the County of York and State of Pennsylvania deceased who died intestate. We do hereby acknowledge that we this day have had and received of and from Jacob Freisinger Junior administrator of the estate of the said Jacob Freisinger Sinier deceased the sum of $21 and seventy two cents each of us in full satisfaction and payment of all such sum or sums . . . 40

The estate papers make no mention of a widow, thus suggesting that Catharine died sometime between 1838 and 1845. The places of burial for Jacob Frysinger [32] and his wife Catharine Miller [33] are uncertain. The family has assumed they were buried in Quickel's cemetery, but no grave markers for them exist.
