General Notes: Husband - [Father] Hartman


Many years ago, before the Revolutionary War had been written on the early pages of the history of the American Colonies, a ship was making its way from Holland to the new country, with whose marvels the Old World was then all agog. Among her passengers were a young husband and wife by the name of Hartman, and before the long journey had been completed the mother had given birth to twin boys, Philip and Michael. Sad to say, however, the joy of seeing the new world was not realized by the young mother, who never recovered, but died and was buried at sea. The father and the boys settled near what is now Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. 3
