  1. 8.  David Good was born in 1735 in Germany (son of Theobald-Debalt Guth and Anna Magdalena); died in 1819 in Franklin County, Virginia.

    Notes:

    David Good II, born in Germany about 1735, came to Pennsylvania as a young child with his parents aboard the ship Glasgow, landing at the Port of Philadelphia on 09 September 1738. According to Trinity Lutheran Church Records, Lancaster, Pennsyl vania, Volume I - 1730-1767 [Page 248], "Theobald Good [shown as Guth], married Elisabet Kilian/Killian [shown as Kilianin] from Veyl in the Palatinate, on 18 January 1756." Elisabet was born in Germany, however, little is known about her family or when they came to Pennsylvania. Possibly her brother, Johannes Kilian, is listed as a sponsor at the baptism of David and Elisabet's first child, Catharine Elisabet Good. While David Good II is listed as a resident of Windsor Township, Yor k County, Pennsylvania in 1790, sometime during 1791 the family relocated to Franklin County, Virginia, and settled on Chestnut Creek near the town of Sydnorsville, in southern Virginia, about fifteen miles south of Roanoke. The occupation of David is unknown, as is the reason for relocating from Pennsylvania to Virginia. David Good II died in 1819 in Franklin County. His wife is said to have died there also, sometime between 1815-1819. Source: Ancestry World Tree Project: Cook/Gunte r - Place of Franklin County relocation in 1790 Duncan C. Davidson 021105

    David married Elisabet Killian on 16 Jan 1756. Elisabet was born about 1736 in Palatinate Area Of Germany. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]


  2. 9.  Elisabet Killian was born about 1736 in Palatinate Area Of Germany.

    Notes:

    Virginia. She died Bet. 1815? 1819 in Franklin County, Virginia.



    Notes for ELISABET [KILIAN] KILLIAN:

    General Notes:

    Elisabet Killian is thought to have been born around the year 1736 in the Palatinate area of Germany. Although we are uncertain as to her exact date of birth, Elisabet would appear to be the daughter of Matheus and Ann Elisabeth [MNU] Killian, a nd there is some circumstantial evidence to support this.



    According to Trinity Lutheran Church Records, Lancaster, Pennsylvania, Vol. I, 1730-1767, Elisabet Killian, listed as "Kilianin from Veyl in the Palatinate," married David Good II on 18 January 1756 at the Trinity Lutheran Church in Lancaster.



    On 12 November 1756, Catharine Elisabeth Good, the first of seven children of David and Elisabet Killian Good, was born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. She was baptized on 12 December 1756 by Rev. Johann S. Gerock at the Trinity Lutheran Chur ch in Lancaster. Sponsors were listed as a Johannes Killian and Catharina, fianc?aae.



    Author and Killian researcher, George W. Killian, states that Matheus Killian arrived with his family on 17 October 1741 at the Port of Philadelphia aboard the ship Molly, where his name appears as "Mattheis Schilion, age 44." The family is sai d to have then settled in the Perkiomen region of Pennsylvania which included parts of Montgomery, Bucks, and Berks counties. Of particular interest here is an LDS IGI Family Group Record which shows a marriage around the year 1760 in Berks Coun ty, Pennsylvania of a Johann Nicholas Killian and Catharine [LNU]. George W. Killian lists a Johan Nicholas Killian, born in 1730 in Germany, as a son of Matheus and Ann Elizabeth Killian, and further shows his marriage to a Catharine Haas, wit h their first child listed as Jacob Killian, born 29 December 1761. In summary, if this is the same Johann and Catharine who were listed as sponsors at the 12 December 1756 baptism of Catherine Elisabet Good, the first child of David and Elisabe t Killian Good, it strongly supports the idea that Johannes Nicholas Killian and Elisabet Killian were siblings and being children of Matheus Killian.



    Sometime between 1800 and 1810, Johann Nicholas Killian died in Earl Township, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and is buried with three of his four children, Philip, Abraham aka Jacob Abraham, and Andrew, at the Bergstrasse Evangelical Church Ce metery in nearby Ephrata Township.



    Sometime between 1815 and 1819, Elisabet Killian Good died in Franklin County, Virginia.



    Other Killian family members have had a presence in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania since 1730 when Heinrich Killian arrived at the Port of Philadelphia with his family aboard the Joyce on 30 November 1730. Heinrich is said to have settled in Ear l Township. On 23 September 1732, Andreas Killian arrived at the Port of Philadelphia with his first wife and their three children aboard the Adventure. Their family resided somewhere in Lancaster County until 1749, that being the year the famil y relocated to Lincoln County, now Catawba County, North Carolina. Both Heinrich and Andreas were born in the small town of K?aeonigsberg, Germany which is located about fifty miles north of N?aeurnberg. It appears quite probable that Heinrich, Andr eas, and Matheus were brothers or cousins. A Michael Killian, [no age stated] arrived at the Port of Philadelphia aboard the Dragon on 26 September 1749. Although it is stated that he settled in the Lancaster County area, it is not known if he w as related to the earlier Killian arrivals.
