A mariner of this ship is listed on the ship Merry Jacks going to Halifax, N.S.
456 Robert McCurdie Mariner** Dragon Halifax Merry Jacks
Correspondence January 29, 2003 - passenger #21 Rumffel / Rumpel
Passenger # 21 on the Dragon 17 Oct 1749 is listed as Johannes Rumffel. We
believe this is Rumppel as we have a photostat of the original ships list.
We further believe he is the Johannes Rumpel that was connected with the
Heidelberg Lutheran and Reformed Church in Northampton Co in 1749. Can't
explain the double P in the name as Rumpel is a fairly common name in
Germany now and Church records show the line as Rumpel or Rumbel. We
have, through Church Records and private notes of Rev Daniel Schumacher,
Identified two dau's and five son's plus one who may have been a nephew.
All but one of these lines have been traced. One son we haven't been able
to trace was Conrad. The last mention of him was in the Northampton Militia
in 1783. There was a Conrad Rumpel that turned up on the 1800 census in
Washington Co. PA that could have been him but we have found no proof of
this as yet. Those intrested contact Dan Rumple
Correspondence February 4, 2005 - passenger #80 Zimmerle
80 Phil. Lorentz Zimmerle could be the father to Margareta "Margaret" Zimmerle
that married Martin Booher. Which could help the Booher relatives and researchers
in their searches. I believe that this could be possible. Patsy Booher
Correspondence added November 26, 2007 - Passengers 26 & 27 Duchmann / Tuchman
Passengers 27 and 28 I believe are - Christman Tuchmann and Peter Tuchmann
From the Books: "Eighteenth Century Emigrants from the Northern Alsace to America"
by Annette Kunselman Burgert and Strassburger and Hinke, "Pennsylvania German Pioneers",
Vol 1, 423.
Christmann (Christian) Tuchmann (Duchman) came from Gundershoffen, Alsace.
He was the son of Hans Adam Tuchmann. He would have emigrated with his wife
Anna Maria Husser Tuchman and daughter Catarina. He moved to Upper Hanover Township
in Montgomery County Pennsylvania, then to New Holland Township in Lancaster County
Pennsylvania. At least one of his daughters Eva Maria Tuchmann Rice married and lived
in Allegany County Maryland.
Peter Tuchmann (Duchmann) came from Gundershoffen, Alsace.
He would have emigrated with children Johann Wilhelm, Catharina Dorothea, Barbara,
Anna Margretha, Peter, Maria Salome and Hans Peter by wife Anna Barbara Gortner
Duchmann (deceased) - and second wife Magdalena Huser and daughter Dorothea.
At one point his daughter Barbara Tuchmann was married in Philadelphia Pennsylvania.
Peter Tuchmann, 8 years away from Alsace, a Lutheran at Fredericktown Maryland was
Naturalized 15 September 1758.
