[53556] Philip's grave marker states "TSGT US Air Force Vietnam".
[421] John m. Ann _____; her name is given as Hannah in "The Stoddard Family", which states (p. 25): "The date of the death of Mrs. Hannah Stodder is not found upon the Hingham records. Savage, in his Genealogical Dictionary, states that she died on October 8, 1675." Other sources give her name as Ann (perhaps a widow). John settled at Hingham about 1638, arriving with his wife (H)annah and four children. He "was one of the party known as rigid Puritans." "He was probably of London...." In 1638 he was granted a "planting lot" of four acres with the sea on its east boundary, and another three acres between the salt meadows and the town common. "John Stodder was probably well along in middle age when he landed. On May 18, 1642, he ws made a full freeman of the Colony, at which time according to Mr. Savage he lived at Hull. In very early days the franchise was limited to the more intelligent men of the community who were members of the church in good standing, and, these, by becoming freemen, were given a right to vote. John Stodder's house was at Hingham, where he served the town in many ways." In 1647 he received the 16th lot in the second division of the town. On 22 April 1640 he was appointed hog reeve. The LDS Church's unverified IGI files usually give his death date as 19 Dec 1661, his marriage date as 1629 or 1630 and his father as George Anthony Stodder. [See also "The Stoddards of Rushton Spencer: A Short Account of the Ancestors of Anthony Stoddard of Boston, Massachusetts, who emigrated there in about 1638", Jeanne Stoddard (London: Rushton Spencer-Stoddard Memorial Fund, 1979).] Children of John and Ann (except for son John) are from Bill Marshall via Internet (wtm@research.att.com), 113 N. Summit Av., Chatham, NJ 07928, 3/97 - and are not verified. "Directory of the Ancestral Heads of New England Families, 1620-1700", Frank R. Holmes, compiler (Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 2008), p. 228 offers: "Stodder. By tradition the first of the name came with William the Conqueror to England as a standard bearer to Viscompte De-Puleston, a noble Norman, and was anciently written De La Standard, corrupted to Stoddard or Stodart. William Stoddard a Knight, ws also with William the Conqueror." Cf. "Pioneers of Massachusetts - 1620-1650," Charles Henry Pope (Boston: New England Historic Genealogical Society, 2013), p. 436.

Hetnrich died before his wife, Anna Maria _____. His will was accepted for probate 20 Jan 1756 and names his children. An unverified file in http://www.fuzzywunkle.net in 2010 offers: "The German origin of the Zeller family was the village of Etsbach in the Hachenburg district, about half way between Cologne and Marburg. No parentage has been found for Johann Heinrich Zeller, but he is on the Lutheran church books at Hamm, near Etsbach, from 1694-1701 when he had four children baptized. His wife was not named.
"Johann Heinrich and a Johann Zeller were among the 13,000 Palatines who fled religious persecution and economic hardship in Germany in 1709. Some fled down the Rhine in boats to Rotterdam, other made their way overland. Queen Anne of England sympathized with these refugees, who were mostly Protestant, and gave permission for the transports and packet-boats that were at that time carrying troops to the Continent to be used to bring some of these refugees to England. About 500 families were settled on large estates in Ireland, but by far the majority were transported to the American colonies, a Six-month sea voyage with over-crowded and unsanitary conditions. Many died on the voyage, particularly women and children.
"On the receiving list of coopers and brewers of St Catherine's Parish in London, 2 june 1709, were two Zellers listed next to each other. The first was Henry Sehler, aged 30, single ot the Reformed faith. The second was John Zeller, 23, single and Lutheran. Either the statement that Henry was single is incorrect, or his wife had died (it is incorrect for John whose marriage is given in German records, and his wife appears on American records also). Some researchers think these men were brothers, but they came from separate, although nearby villages. Probably they were related.
"Governor George Hunter of New York promised 40 acres of land to those immigrants who would produce tar and turpentine for the British Navy. When a group of Palatines arrived in 1710, they were settled in camps in Livingston Manor NY, but the land was not forthcoming and the trees did not produce tar and turpentine in any quantity. The Governor had to provide rations to carry these immigrants through several winters.
"Johann Heinrich Zeller appeared first on the Hunter Subsistence Lists in July 1710, with 2 persons over 10 in his household. Subsequent lists are not consistent, but by October 1710, he had four persons in his household. According to family tradition, Heinrich's wife was named Anna Maria Briegal. Although there is no proof of this , there was a George Briegal among the 1709/10 immigrants.
"In 1711, Johann Heinrich and Johann Zeller, both from Annsberg, one of the Palatine villages, were among the Volunteers to go to a border skirmish against Canada. That same year Heinrich's son, Hartman, was born; probably named for Hartman Windecker, one of the Palatine leaders. In 1713, both the Zeller families were among those who moved to Schoharie, NY under the leadership of Conrad Weiser. There these families lived in seven "dorfs" or villages, and in a few years became self-supporting.
"Johann Heinrich first purchased in 1738, 130 acres of land for £52 located at what is now Winterville, near Mt. Aena, in Tulpehocken twp, Berks Co. The following year he got a warrant for 115 acres of land adjacent to his other property. He had it surveyed, but did not obtain a patent until 1750. On this land Heinrich Zeller built for his family a substantial 2 story half-timber log house, a type common in the Palatinate. This house was bequeathed to his son, George, who in turn left it to his son Andrew. Andrew sold it in 1806 to the Winter family, and the old house was lived in until it was destroyed by fire on Thanksgiving 1964.
"In Tulpehocken, as in other pioneer settlements, people built log houses or cabins, cleared and tilled the soil, bargained with the Indians, and eked out a precarious existence. They had come to this country partly to escape religious persecution and were eager to begin worship services although usually without the benefit of clergy. They met in homes, barns or outdoors for Bible reading, hymns and prayer and sometimes a sermon by a missionary, a minister or a devout layman, would be sent or come of his own accord to minister to these people on the frontier.
"John Philip Boehm, son of a Reformed minister of Hochstadt, Germany, came to America in 1720 and settled in the Philadelphia area. He became a lay minister and had established three congregations in the area by 1725--the beginning of the Reformed Church in America. Boehm was asked to come to the Tulpehocken area where he held the first communion in 1727, believed to have been at Reed's near Stouchsburg. Rev. Boehm was ordained ca 1728.
"Reformed groups were meeting in different places in the Tulpehocken area, and by 1738 Rev Boehm was giving communion in two places. One of these is believed to have been near Trinity Tulpehocken Church and in 1738 is the accepted date for the beginning of this church. It is not known when the first building, probably of logs, was built to house the congregation, but when in 1748 a formal congregation was formed, three Zellers were among the first members--H. Zoeller, and his sons, Hardman Zoeller and Joh Zoeller. Some of Heinrich's descendants stayed in the Tulpehocken area and 1977 ten known descendants were among the members of Trinity Church. Many of the family are buried in the ancient graveyard.
"In 1754 Johann Heinrich made his will which was probated 20 jan 1756. The estate was not settled until 1772 when the children released their rights to the estate to their brother, John George. From his will and these quitclaims the family of Johann Heinrich can be established. Anna Maria died ca 1765. Early researchers badly mixed up the families of Johann Heinrich and Johann Zeller. In recent years John. F. Vallentine and G Thomas Zeller, Historian of the Zeller Family Association, have researched these men from the primary records. Unless otherwise noted, the material on these families has been taken from the above references and the primary sources have not been checked.
"In the 1920's Frank Zeller, a Philadelphia lumberman and consulting engineer, with the aid of Bailey, Banks and Biddle Co., "Purveyors of Crests," published a genealogy of the Zellers going back to ca 1450, in which he gives the parents of Johan Heinrich as Jacques Zeller and Lady Clotilde de Valois, of the French nobility. No documentation has been found for this family tradition, but it has been picked up and published in various forms several times, as Frank Zeller furnished an entry for Virkus' Compendium of American Genealogy. It would be nice to believe that we are descended from French nobility, but recent Zeller researchers as well as several eminent genealogists , including Dr. Milton Rubincam, believe that Lady Clothilde is totally fictitious."
