Johann 'Adam' Wuertemberger, I: Robin's Roots Test

Abt 1730 - 1782 (52 years)

TNG Descendant Charts

Please note that you don't have to depend on these descriptions; you can quickly try out each of the chart types.

Graphical formats

"Standard" charts have a marvelous graphical format and show a fair amount of data for each person, but they generate so much whitespace that they tend to be wider than the screen (or a printed page) They tend to be hard to read and almost impossible to print if you generate more than three or four generations of data.
"Compact" charts have similar graphical layout, and are easier to read and print, but don't display any data other than each person's name.
Note that if you want to print a "Compact" chart with more than three or four generations of data, you should probably specify "Landscape" orientation when you print.
The "PDF chart" is kind of a cross between the standard and compact formats, generated as a PDF. On most computers, any web page can be printed as a PDF, but this PDF format handles page breaks for specific paper sizes, wheras PDF printouts of web pages just run the text through the page breaks

(The graphical charts' connecting lines sometimes disappear at certain zoom level. When they are missing, you can use you mouse scroll whell or hit control-plus or control-minus to change the zoom level.)

Text formats

"Text" charts follow a standard outline-style format that provides more (i.e. denser) data than the graphical charts do.
"Text+" charts are kind of a cross between the graphical and text formats. They can display much more data in less space than graphical charts or the "Text" chart. (That's good news and bad news). In particular, they requires much less horizontal scrolling, and can accommodate large charts in one printed page width (albeit sometimes with legal-sized paper in landscape mode). They are also much more flexible than the other formats, with several (perhaps too many) run-time options.
However,
- The process of printing a Text+ chart can be a bit daunting, and
- When you are looking at just a few generations, and when enough data is visible on the screen, the graphical charts tend to be easier to read.
"Register" charts are detailed descriptive reports. They contain almost all of the data that I have for each person, including free-form notes. But they aren't really 'charts' in the normal sense, and don't give this kind of overview of the family tree that the other charts give.
"Count" charts don't list descendants at all; they just show how many descendants a person has, broken out by generation.

Less detail

Generation: 1

Johann 'Adam' Wuertemberger, I was born about 1730; died in 1782.

Other Events and Attributes:

Occupation: Stocking weaver
Residence: 1751, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, USA; Pennsylvania Census
Departure: Bef May 1751, Ilbesheim, Palatinate, Holy Roman Empire; He came to America on The Neptune, which departed from Rotterdam. The ship's manifest reports that he was from Ibesheim.
Arrival: 24 Sep 1751, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania, USA; As "Johann Adam Wirdeberger", on The Neptune which came from Rotterdam via Cowles, England
Residence: 1779, Cumru Twp, Berks County, Pennsylvania, USA; Stocking weaver, 1 cow, 10+6 = 16 Pennsylvania pounds This could be his son. Adam II was definitely a stocking weaver; I don't know if Adam I was.

Notes:

He was born as Johann Adam Württemberger (with an umlaut), but I use the anglicized spelling becuase it is consistent with other named used in America. His birth date is in dispute. Several Johann Adam Württembergers were born in Württember in the mid-1700, and his birth dates in various online sources reflect that variety. The most common date is 1737, but that date is inconsistent with several life events, so I've chosen the compromise date of "about 1730"

At least from the time he arrived in America, records, he used his middle name "Adam", and all American records (except his son's birth record in a German Lutheran Church) identify him as "Adam Wirtemberger" (or with a surname that could be just a misspelling
arrived in Philadelphia in 1751 on the ship "The Neptune", which embarked from Rotterdam, but he began his journey in Ilbesheim, a town in the Rhemish Palatanate. The Palatinate was a vassal state of the Holy Roman Empire, and is now part of the German state Rhineland-Palatinate. He married Anna Maria Strohecker (also from Wuerttember) 1756, likely in Reading, Pennsylvania, because he owned a home near the center of town in 1758. (See the attached map.)

His family was (at some point) from the Duchy of Württemberg, also part of the Holy Roman Empire. It was adjacent to the Palatinate, but is now part of the German state Baden-Württemberg, whose capital is Stuttgart. Baden-Württemberg is the most southwesterly German state, bordering Switzerland and France (Alsace).

I don't know whether Adam was born in Württemberg or the Palatinate, but I'm saying the former because we know that his family was from there. In any case, he was part of the mass immigration from southwest Germany in the mid-1700s that was driven by the devastation caused by War of Austrian Succession and the Seven Year's War. These immigrants are collectively known as German Palatines, though the Palatinate was only one of several historical districts affected.

Name:
His surname (originally Württemberger - with an umlaut) suggested that his family was from Württemberg. But the manifest of the Neptune, on which he sailed to America, identifies him as Johann Adam Wirdeberger. says that he was from Ilbesheim Rhenish Palatinate,

Died:
GRid=1233488720; Interesting bio with details of immigration, wife, children, parents, grandparents.

GRid=1233488720 says that he was buried in the Alsace Lutheran Church Cemetery in Reading, but I don't know of any primary souirces for that, and it seems unlikey. In the 1750s and perhaps into the 1770's, he lived in the center of town. Tax lists in 1779, 1881, and 1882Unknown burial. Interesting bio with details of immigration, wife, children, parents, grandparents.

Johann married Anna Maria Strohecker in 1756. Anna was born in 1738; died before 1782. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Name:
Johann Adam Wattenbarger was born in Pennsylvania in 1760 as Johann Adam Wuertemberger with only a slight Anglicization of his father's original family name "Württemberger". His father was born as Johann Adam Württemberger in about 1830 in Württemberg, which is now part of Germany..

I use his original firstnane "Johann", the anglicized "Wattenbarger" and the suffix "II"

There is no primary documentation of his first name other than his birth record,

He used the name "Adam Wattenbarger" in his will, and

Although he was born with (essentially) the same name as his father, his ultimate use of "Wattenbarger" somehow turns me away from "Jr".

Both men were identified as "Adam Wirtemberger" (or something else that could just be a typo) in all American records until Adam II moved to Tennessee.

Notes:

Name:
He was known by his first name Jacob, though

His father John Adam Wattenbarger III (born in Pennsylvania in 1787 as Johann Adam Wuertemberger),

His grandfather, born in 1760 in Pennsylania as Johann Adam Wuertemberger II, and

His great grandfather, born in about 1830 in Württemberg (now part of Germany) as Johann Adam Württemberger

were all called Adam. Since their births were separated by the Atlantc Ocean and their surnames were not consistent, I call them Adam Wuertermberger I, II, and III rather than Sr, Jr, and III.

Documents in Pennsulvania (other than birth records) used the surname "Wirtemberger". Adam II left Pennsylvania between 1790 and 1800, when Adam II was a child, and began uising the name "Wattenbarger" once he reached Tennessee.
