54 Also listed in the census for this family:

-Julia A Porter, 19, Teaches school, Pennsylvania. Listed after William Wasson.
-Lucinda Wasson, 33, Seamstress, Pennsylvania. Listed after 1-year-old Eva.
-Ursula L Wasson, 14, attends school, Pennsylvania. Listed after Lucinda.

It's not at all clear how these three women relate to the rest of the Wassons. It's not unreasonable to assume that Julia is William's wife, and Lucinda is Nathaniel's sister (with Ursula being Lucinda's daughter). But I have nothing to back up those assumptions at this point. 		WASSON, Nathaniel M (I1541)

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL DOCUMENT
Rev. John Steel's fortified church was about two and one half miles from Ft. McDowell and its situation was such that the Indians are not known to have ever made a serious attempt to take it. It was easier to approach Ft. McDowell unobserved. The statement sometimes made that the Indians burned Rev. Steele's church certainly does not refer to the church at Church Hill. A disaster of such magnitude would be spoken of in the many letters about Indian attacks.

Little intimate information about this post in the French war is given except James McCullough's note about beginning "ye fort at ye church."

One outrage told of in the histories, the killing of John Wasson, occurred in the country tributary to Steele's Fort. Wasson's place was the Rockdale farm, long owned by the Keefer's later by the Kennedys and now the property of the Baker quarry interests.

Walter R. Sloane of McConnellsburg after a careful study of the records has produced an unusually valuable paper on the history of the Wassons. Through the courtesy of Mr. Sloane we print the result of his work.

ANN WASSON
by Walter R. Sloane
The story of Ann Wasson is not one of youth and romance as had been portrayed of other indian captives, but that of suffering and privation. The story of a noble pioneer woman who was willing to risk all that this country should be developed for her children.

In the spring of 1756 we find Ann Wasson living with her second husband, John Wasson, and seven children---John, William, Robert and Jane Sloan, issue with her first husband, William Sloan, and Thomas, James and Elizabeth Wasson, issue with her second husband, John Wasson---on a plantation of 450 acres in Peters Township, Cumberland (now Franklin) County.

The times were exceedingly dangerous. Since Braddock's defeat the previous fall the Indians had been terrorizing this whole, section. Many settlers had lost their lives and many been captured. Rev. John Steele's meeting house had been turned into a fort, which was a place of refuge for the women and children of the neighborhood, as well as a stronghold when attacked by the Indians. On April 5, 1756, Fort McCord, just a few miles away, had fallen with the loss of many lives.

Seed time was at hand. John Wasson was busy tilling his land. On May 26, 1756, Ann Wasson leaving her seven children at Fort Steele, had gone to their plantation, risking her life that she may be at the side of her husband.

Without warning they were attacked by the Indians. John Wasson was horribly mangled and scalped. Ann Wasson was taken captive.

We find this account in the "Pennsylvania Gazette," page 108, 1756:
"On Wednesday 26th May, 1756, they (the Indians) came to the plantation of John Wasson in Peters Township, Cumberland County, whom they killed and mangled in so horrid and cruel manner, that a regard to decency forbids describing it, and afterwards burned his house and carried off his wife. A party of Steeles and Peters men went out after the enemy, but to no purpose."

The authorities were notified. John Potter, the first sheriff of Cumberland County, took charge. The question arose as to what should be done with the children. The older ones---young lads,nearly grown---told of an uncle, a brother of their mothers, who lived near Newtown, Bucks County. It was decided that the children should go to him. A notice was written:

Mr. Robert Means
These are to certify to you your brother John Wasson last Wednesday was barbarously killed by the indians and his wife carried captive and as the time is so exceeding dangerous in these parts and no relatives of the orphans here to take care of them the children desires to go to you and all things considered it appears to us most advisable and with them we send you an account of his estate as it is now situate his crops in the ground the young lads can tell you best. His debts appears to be near fifty pound and if you incline to administer send word or come up with the young lads yourself, you being the nighest relation. This 29th of May, 1756.

John Potter
Will Maxwell,
Hez Alexander,
Wm. Dunwody,
Moses Thomson.

Just where Ann Wasson spent her captivity is not known. She was held captive for three and one-half years. On November 27, 1759, a pass was granted to Teedyuscung, a famous Delaware King, at Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, to conduct four white captives, two women and two boys, to Philadelphia, to deliver to the governor. Ann Wasson is identified as one of these captives:

Page 692, Vol.3, First Series, "Pennsylvania Archives":
"Timothy Horsfield's Pass to Teddyuscung, l159.
Northampton, SS.
(L.S.) These are to request all his Majesty's liege people to suffer the bearer, King Teedyuscung & Daniel, with seven other indians, men and women, having with them four white captives, Viz, two women & 2 boys, to pass unmolested to Philada., their business being to deliver the said captives to his honour the Governor. Given under my hand & seal at Bethlehem, the 27th
Nov. 1759.
Timo. Horsfield."

In December 1, 1759, Ann Wasson was delivered by Teedyuscung to James Hamilton, Lieutenant Governor of the province of Pennsylvania. The official record of this delivery is found in an original manuscript, the property of the State of Pennsylvania, in the State Library at Harrisburg, which reads

Memorandum of Ann Wasson.
She was taken in the year 1756 in the begining of May at Caghnehscheeky in Cumberland County her husband John Wasson was then killed and scalped. She left seven children about two miles off, and she hopes they are alive some where. She is unable to support herself. She has two brothers some where in Chester or Bucks County.

Memorandum of Maria Wagoner
She was taken in the year 1757 in September and her husband was then killed and scalped his name was Conrad Wagoner they lived on Scarboro in Lancaster County she has no child.

Peter Newfang a lad of about 11 or 12 years of age was taken in the year 1756 in May on Scullkill on the other side the mountains his mother was then killed, he cant talk a word of German his father Balhaser Newfang is a private soldier in Battalion of Penna. Regiment.
Endorsed on the back of the above record is the following:
"Names of 4 prisoners delivered by Teedyuscung to the Govr. 1st Dec. 1759".
James Hamilton was just beginning his second term as Lieutenant Governor of the province of Pennsylvania when Teedyuscung delivered these four prisoners to him in Philadelphia. In fact he had not yet made his inaugural address. On December 4, 1759, he addresses Teedyuscung:

Page 6, Vol. 3, Fourth Series, "Pennsylvania Archives":
James Hamilton, Lieutenant Governor, to Teedyuscung, chief of the Delawares, December 4, 1759.
Brother: The sight of our flesh and blood, after a tedious captivity, gives us great pleasure, and I thank you for the return of the four prisoners, and expect you will continue to do your utmost that all be returned to us as soon as possible. (Gave a string of Wampum.)
Brother: You have acted a just part in bringing the six horses that have been stolen from the poor people on the borders by some of your unthinking young men.

The condition of the prisoners is described by Lieutenant Governor Hamilton as being "naked and destitute" in a message he sent to the assembly on December 7, 1759.

Page 12, Vol. 3, Fourth Series, "Pennsylvania Archives":
James Hamilton, Lieutenant Governor, to the Assembly, December 7, 1759.
There are two indian messengers in town from the Ohio, who, with Teedyuscung, to whom they were recommended to be conducted here, have been assisting in a council of indians held at Atsintsing, an indian town, situate on the Cayuga Branch of the Sasquehannah.

Teedyuscung having delivered to me four prisoners, two elderly women and two boys, who are quite naked and destitute, I recommend it to you to enable me to make some provision for them, and likewise to send these messengers away well pleased with their reception, being of opinion with Teedyuscung, that it will be of great service, at this time, to engage the friendship of the nation of whom they belong.

That some provision was made by the assembly for the four prisoners is found in the response to the Lieutenant Governor's message, by Isaac Norris,
Speaker of the House, on December 8, 1759.

Votes of Assembly, Vol. 5, December 8, 1759:
We have recommended the other parts of your Honour's message to the commissioners who will make a suitable provision for the prisoners now delivered, and also to take care that the messengers from the Ohio shall depart well satisfied with their reception.
Amongst us Signed by the Order of the House
December 8, 1759 Isaac Norris Speaker

Just when and where Ann Wasson was united with her children is not known. On April 22, 1762, letters of administration were issued at Carlisle on the estate of John Wasson, with Ann Wasson and William Sloan, her eldest son, as administrators.

In the settlement of this estate it was brought out that John Wasson "had received all and singular the personal estate of William Sloan" Ann Wasson's first husband. As this sum was now due the Sloan children, Willm. Allison, John Holiday, Willm. Maxwell and James Potter were asked to act as arbitrators. On May 26, 1762, they made settlement with the consent of all parties. This settlement was confirmed at an Orphan's Court held at Shippensburg on the 8th day of March, 1763.

In 1769 we find Ann Wasson worshiping God as a member of the congregation of Dr. John King at Mercersburg. Listed as members were William Oats, Jean Oats (daughter of Ann Means Sloan Wasson) and Mrs. Wasson.
The last mention of Mrs. Wasson was when Thomas Wasson (on behalf of himself, his mother, brother and sister) entered a caveat against the acceptance of a survey in Peters Township, Cumberland County (now Franklin) at the Land Office, Oct. 30, 1772. It is not known when she died or where she is buried.

In writing this story of Ann Wasson I have been impelled by a desire to present the facts as I found them. I could draw on my imagination and elaborate on her captivity of three and a half years among the Indians, and tell of hardships she undoubtedly passed through, but in so doing I could not give it for what I know to be the truth.

I could tell of Ann Wasson's children, ever pressing on to new frontiers, as well as of her father, John Means, of Newtown, Bucks County, but as this would be interesting only to those who are her descendants, I give this as the story of her life as History records it. 		MEANS, Ann (Nancy) (I579)
 
63 Ann Wasson is mentioned in the will of Jane Wasson, her mother-in-law.

Note: Ann appears as a widow, age 47, in 1850 census. After that she is no longer found in Pennsylvania. An Ann Wasson from Illinois left a will. This might be the same Ann. Her late husband was a Thomas Wasson from Butler Co., PA. Her will states children with the same names and ages as Thomas and Ann. Sons Charles and William were living in California at the time of Ann's will. 		DUFFY, Ann (I543)

127 Family legend has both John Carl and Louisa arriving (separately) in 1867, and being married in 1872. No supporting documentation has ever been found.

In September 2009, I located his 1889 passport application that verified his immigration information. He traveled on the Westphalia from Hamburg.

In the passport application, John says he immigrated on or about 28 Aug 1867. The Westphalia wasn't launched until 1868. There is a passenger listing on the maiden voyage arriving 28 Sep 1868 for Johann Müller, age 22. I think that's the right person. 		MUELLER, John Charles (I21)
