    Notes:

    "DESCENDANTS OF HANS GRAF" by Lindsey M. Brien (handtyped book at
    Allen County Public Library, Ft. Wayne, IN, 1966) "Hans Graf, the
    second, otherwise called John Graf, or John Grove, son of Hans Graf
    and wife Susanna, is named in the will of his father. His wife was
    Elizabeth Carpenter, daughter of Heinrich (Zimmerman) Carpenter. In
    1763 Hans sells to his brother David, a tract of 197 acres, being part
    of a tract of 1419 acres granted to his father." " Hans Graf, Jr.
    went with his sons into Maryland, about 1763, and settled in Frederick
    County A note appended to his will states that his heirs write the name
    'Grove.' Both Hans and his wife Elizabeth are buried at Keedysville,
    Washington County MD. Their graves are simply marked with a slab on
    which is cut their initials. These were legible in 1912." "Sharf's
    History of Western Maryland mentions a resurvey made of Groff's
    Forests, which had been granted to John Groff; also mentions a survey
    made of Groff's Content in 1788, to Jacob Groff." "John Grove (Hans
    Jr.) and his son Jacob, signed the Oath of Fidelity and Support to the
    State of Maryland, at the March Court 1778, Sharpsburg Hundred,
    Washington County (Washington from Frederick County in 1776). (See
    Revolutionary Records of Maryland, by G. M. Brumbaugh, p. 14)"
    "THE GROFF BOOK" by Clyde Groff, Walter Groff, and Jane Evans Best,
    (Groff Hist. Associates, 1985) "John Groff (E8) was granted 197
    acres from the heirs of Hans Groff (E) on 30 July, 1746....John Grove
    of Earl twp. purchased 422 acres of land in Newberry twp., York County on
    the Conewago Creek on the west side of the Susquehanna River, on 2 May
    1763. In 1769 he was listed as living in Newberry twp. when he
    purchase land in York Twp. from Michael Gross...by 1779 John Grove had
    sold his land, signing his mark HG."

    "DESCENDANTS OF HANS GRAF" by Lindsey M. Brien (handtyped book at

    son of Hans Jr...was a physician and man of prominence in the locality
    in which he lived. He came to Maryland in 1765 and signed the Oath of
    Fidelity and Support to the State of Maryland in 1778. He also in

    15, 1881) "Dear Niece, ....You wanted to know something about
    the Hans Graff family. I have had several sick spells and I can't
    recollect like I use to but I can recollect hearing my father say that
    my grandfather (Jacob Graff) was is the Revolutionary War the whole
    seven years of my Uncle John and Peter were out the same time. My
    father (Henry Grove, son of Jacob Grove/Graf) was learning trade at
    Little York, he learned Whites smith trade. He made all kinds of
    instruments for the war. I have heard him say that the hardest battle
    was on Graff's run and that they could walk across on the dead men.
    The battle was 9 miles from my grandfather's mill and grandmother
    tended the mill...Hans Graff fled from his home on account of
    religion...They were a religious people called the Mennonite, they
    were persecuted and came to America where they could worship God in
    their way. My grandfather, Jacob Graff, was a Presbyterian and they
    all descended from the Mennonites. My grandfather sold his
    possessions ans bought in Hagerstown and bought a mill 8 miles from
    Hagerstown, there he lived and died, he died at the age of 88 years.
    My grandmother died at the age of 88 years, the same as my
    grandfather. John Graff was the son of Hans Graff, my grandfather's
    father...."

    Notes:

    Information about John and Mary (Brown) Grove taken from "THE GROFF BOOK: Vol. 1 A Good Life in a New Land" by Clyde Groff, Walter Groff, and Jane Evans Best, (Groff Hist. Assoc., Ronks, Pa. 1985). Information about children of John and My G e taken from "HISTORY OF SHEPHERD AND RELATED FAMILIES" by Frank Shepherd (Indiana State
    Library, Indianapolis, IN, 1943)
    John Grove served in the Revolutionary War as a private in Capt. Peter Helpenstine's Company. This is used as his proof for the DAR/SAR lineage. He is listed in a Payroll of Dunmore's War, recorded in 1775. These are referred to as the Rom, and "to a man", almost every soldier on the payroll list signed up for service in the Revolution. I have been unable to locate any other military records, so he may have served in the militia in Romney, Hampshire County VA, (now present da y W. VA.). His first son Jacob was born in Hampshire County John and Mary (Brown) Grove were living in Fayette County PA before 1786,
    as reported in a journey by William Brown and Thomas Shepherd that year. The trip was made from Shepherdstown, W. Va. to Wheeling and back again. It mentions that they went to visit John and Mary Grove. (Details contained in "Duke-Shepherd-Va n Metre Families" by Smyth, book at Ft. Wayne, In) Land deeds call John Grove a tanner. He
    owned several town lots, and may have had a tannery business at those locations. Shortly before his death he sold his land to his father, Jacob Grove, in Sharpsburg, MD. John pre-deceased his father, and when his father died a few years later , he left John's share of his estate to John's children.
