"Straubs, Smiths and Extended Family" on http://wc.rootsweb.com by Christina Straub offers:

Valentine Foose was the seventh child of Nicholas Foose (born before 1715 in Alsace, Germany) and Elizabeth Glass (d. 1731) Nicholas was a merchant and died September 17, 1762 in Amity Township, Berks Co., PA. In 1742 Nicholas was one of the 49 renters of land on McCall Manor. This 14,060 acre tract (a grant to John Penn in 1701 who sold it in 1735 to George McCall, a Philadelphia merchant, in Montgomery (then Philadelphia) County extended along the Berks County line to the Schuylkill River, including the present Pottstown. Nicholas made a trip to Europe and again took the oath of abjuration on August 15, 1750 upon his return to Philadelphia as one of the "foreigners" carried by the ship Royal Union from Rotterdam. A comparison of his signatures shows similarities between those to the 1731 oath of allegiance and the 1750 oath of abjuration, Nicholas continued to live on McCall manor or nearby as he daughter was married in New Hanover in 1753. Not long before his death in 1762, Nicholas moved a few miles westward to Amity Township in the newly formed Berks Co. His name is not on its land indices or on the existing Amity tax lists of 1754, 1758 and 1760. But he owned land since he was termed a yeoman of Amity Township in the estate accounting. Nicholas died September 17-30, 1763. Elizabeth was Nicholas Fuss' only known wife, and hence the mother of all Nicholas Fuss' children born in America. The first record of Elizabeth by name is in that of her son's 1745 baptism (Whihelm Fuss born June 4, 1745, baptized November 3 at New Hanover Church as son of Nicholas and wife Elizabetha). THE EARLY SETTLEMENT OF THE FOOSE FAMILY http://members.aol.com/gsmithsan/ foose5.htm and DESCENDANTS OF NICHOLAS FOOSE http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/ Meadows/4694/foosdesc.html#name7.

Misc Notes for Johan Nicholaus Fuss: Pennsylvania Genealogical Magazine, Volume XVIII-No. 2, September 1951. The early American settlement of the Foose (Foos or Fuss) family was in theSchuylkill River valley between Valley Forge and Reading, Pennsylvania, in the present counties of Montgomery, Chester, and Berks (see Figure 3). Thevariations of the family's name on records :in Pennsylvania are normally Foos, Foose, Fuss and, rarely, Fass, Feis, Feuse, Foas, Foice, Fooce, Foot, Fouce, Fouse, Fouze, Fow, Fuce, Fuchs, Fus, Fuse, Fusse, Fusz, Fuys, Fuz, Fuzz. The names are pronounced similarly to goose or foot. This is Germanic and indeed the name is German for foot. Nicholas or Johan Nicholaus Fuss, First Foose-to-Settle in Pennsylvania. The "Account of Palatine Passengers on board ye Pennsylvania Merchant, John Stedman, Commander, from Rotterdam (Holland), at the day of their arrival at Philadelphia, September 10 th---1731" includes in the list of "Men over sixteen" years of age the name--Nicholas Fuys. and in the list of "Children under the age of .16, the names Magdalena Fuvs and Maria Fuys. The complementary list of those same "Palatines imported in the ship Pennsylvania Merchant, Jno. Stedman. Mr., from Rottm., but last from Dover (England), Qualified Septr.. 11th., 1731" before the Court at Philadelphia, contains the signature of .this immigrant,. Niklas Fuss. As stated in the preceding paragraph, with Nicholas on the Pennsylvania Merchant in 1731 were two daughters under 16, but no wife. Perhaps she died on the arduous voyage to America; if so, he soon remarried., (In one recorded instance in 1732, the transatlantic crossing took 24 weeks. and over 100 of the 150 passengers died of hunger. These ships were very crowded and unsanitary; bad weather and pirates often prolonged their voyage.) Clues to the Origin and Early Homes of the Foos Family in Europe: Letters in 1906 between Foos families in America, Germany, and France (the result of an exhibit in Paris by The Foos Gas Engine Co. of Springfield, Ohio being seen by a lawyer from Paris, Louis Foos) yielded the following information: According to Louis Foos. the family was of Alsatian (area of France on the-German border) origin. Around 1738 a father came into discord with his three sons after which two migrated, one to Germany and one toAmerica. The 1738 date is interestingly close to Nicholas Fuss's 1731 arrival in America. The grandfather of Louis (who was the son of the son that did not migrate away from Alsace), Benard Foos. was born in Shedes (Schaidt), Alsace in 1773. The father of Louis, Pierre Foos, was born at Riedselsy, Alsace in 1808.A letter to Mrs. Theodore Baily in 1948 from Martha Schollmayer, born Foos, of Bad Durkheim, Germany stated that her family originated from Christian Foos,--the son who went to Germany andsettled in Wahenheim in the Palatinate where he married and had a son in 1740 whose name was Phillip Foos. She indicated that the name Foos was then a very rare one. She also indicated-that the family was originally Catholic, but that she had been brought up in the Protestant faith of her Mother. In 1609, the hamlet, Nofelden, Germany had 21 house owners including Jacob Foos, and living with him were wife, Eva, two brothers, Nickel, a linen weaver, and Thomas, also two sons and a servant, per the Protestant Church Archives of Konken, Hence, Nohfelden, Wachenheim, Riedselz. and Schaidt (using their modern German spellings) may have been early homes of the Foos family or families. . . . .the above municipalities are located as follows: Nohfelden is located about 7 miles south of Birdenfold; Wachenheim is about 15 miles West of Ludwigshafen; Riedsely, France is about 15 miles west of the Rhine River and 4 miles south of Weissenburg; Schaidt is 7 miles east northeast of Weissenburg. These four towns in the Palatinate and Alsace are within about a 60 mile area.

Life of Nicholas or Johan Nicholaus Fuss in Pennsylvania: Nicholas Fuss may have come over as a redemptioner (indentured servant), as did so many to pay for their passage. His name has not been found on the scanty church records of various denominations of the region before 1745, or on the lists of road petitioners, freeholders. Patentees and records of Old Philadelphia County. In 1742, Nicholas was one of the 49 renters of land on McCall Manor. This 14,060 acre tract (a grant to John Penn in 1701 who sold it in 1735 to George McCall, a Philadelphia merchant, in Montgomery (then Philadelphia) County extended along the Berks County line to the Schuylkill River, including the present Pottstown. Nearby in Oley, Daniel Boone was born in 1734 and Abraham Lincoln's ancestors lived near there during the 1730-50 period. On the map, Figure 3. McCall Manor is east of the Schuylkill River, between the river and New Hanover.Nicholas made a trip to Europe and again took the oath of abjuration on August 15. 1750 upon his return to Philadelphia as one of the "foreigners" carried by the ship Royal Union from Rotterdam. A comparison of his signatures shows similarities between those to the 1731 oath of allegiance and to the 1750 oath of abjuration, also between those to the 1731 oath of abjuration and to his will of 1762. Nicholas continued to live on McCall manor or nearby, as his daughter was married in New Hanover in 1753. Not long before his death in 1762, Nicholas moved a few miles westward to Amity Township in the newly formed Berks County. His name is not on its land indices or on the existing Amity tax lists of 1754, 1758, and 1760. But he owned land since he was termed a yeoman of Amity Township in the estate accounting. Nicholas died in September 17-30,1762. Elisabeth was Nicholas Fuss' only known wife, and hence the mother of all Nicholas Fuss' children born in America. The first record of Elisabeth by name is in that of her son's 1745 baptism (Wilhelm Fuss born June 4, 1745, baptized November 3 at-New Hanover Church, son of Nicolas and-wife Elisabetha.) The last record of her is the 1786 confirmation of Friedrich, son of Widow Elisabeth Fuss, "across the Schulkiel at the Peikstown Church"(now Zions): the church is located: near Spring City.

INDEX

[10252] The LDS Church's unverified IGI file gives his death date and the date of his marriage (18 Oct 1855 in Dunlap, Elkart Co., IN - wife not named). His descendant, Susan Francis (sufrancis@aol.com), wrote via email 11 July 2005: "I have proven that Sam Myers' sister Rachel is indeed the daughter of Jacob D. and Catherine Moyer (at least to DAR's satisfaction). I am descended from her through her oldest son, William. Rachel is my great great great grandmother. I have a picture of Rachel when she is a very old woman. Also, in trying to prove Rachel's parents, I used her sister, Eve and her family, who moved to Indiana also. Eve named her oldest daughter Rachel." See notes for William's mother, Rachel Moyer. Find A Grave memorial 64468841 offers his obituary: "William Shroyer was born in Stark County, Ohio, on Dec. 14, 1833. His parents were Simon and Rachel (Myers) Shroyer, and he had four brothers and sisters. He moved with his family to Noble County, Indiana, in 1854. He married Hannah Hartung, who was born in Summit County, Ohio, on Nov. 28, 1835. Her parents were Richard and Maria (Click) Hartung. She had seven brothers and sisters. Hannah's family moved to Indiana in the early 1850s. William and Hannah married in Noble County, Indiana, on Oct. 18, 1855. By 1860 they were living in Elkhart County. They lived on a farm about 3 ½ miles south of Elkhart for over 40 years. After his conversion on November 16, 1864, William Shroyer was described as a "very earnest Christian." In 1866, Hannah and William were founding members of the Dunlap Evangelical Church (now Dunlap United Methodist Church), and are listed as one of the principal contributors. He was the class leader for some time. He spent much time in prayer and reading the Bible. He read the Bible through once on his knees. In his testimonies he emphasized the necessity of thorough conversion. The original Dunlap Evangelical Church burned down. When the sanctuary was rebuilt, a stained glass window was installed in memory of William and Hannah. Dunlap is now part of Elkhart, Indiana. Hannah and William must have had a lively household with so many girls; they were the parents of seven daughters: Emma M. born Jan. 1857; Sarah J. born Oct. 12, 1858; Lydia Anna (our ancestor) born July 9, 1860; Mary Ella born 1862; Clara born Sept. 22, 1865; Cora May born September 21, 1874; and Cordelia M. born Jan. 17, 1880. Hannah and William and their family experienced the grief of seeing two of the children die at a young age. Cora May was the four-year-old baby of the family when she died in 1878. Two years later Cordelia was born, and she lived to the age of 21. She died of heart disease in 1901. The remaining daughters married: Sarah to Joshua R.; Emma to Samuel Rufus McDowell; Lydia to Benjamin F. Roland; Mary to J. Allen Shupert; and Clara to John Irving Myers. William and Hannah were blessed with long lives, enjoying their family, who lived nearby, and their many friends. He died at the age of 69 on March 18, 1903. Twelve years later on July 27, 1915, Hannah died. She was 79. At the time of her death, Hannah lived across the street from the Dunlap Evangelical Church in the home of Emma and Rufus McDowell. She was survived by four of her daughters, fourteen grandchildren, and (at that time) fourteen great-grandchildren. Hannah and William Shroyer are buried beside their two youngest daughters at Prairie Street Cemetery, Elkhart, Indiana."
