Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Benedictus Kuhn died 1790/1800, Newberry County, South Carolina.

    Notes:

    In the fall of 1752, after 9 September 1752, the ship "Upton", owned by Foster Cuncliffe Esquire & Sons of Liverpool, with a captain named Gardner, sailed into the port of Chas Town (Charleston), South Carolina, arriving from Rotterdam, Holland, carrying among it's passengers, Benedict (Benedictus) Kuhn, his wife and one son, George Adam, who was eight years old. Benedict came from the upper parts of Germany (parish Dielstorff) to join relatives who had settled in the forks of the Broad and Saluda rivers in Newberry County, South Carolina. The reason for his coming, as he states in his petition for land made 7 November 1752 was "hearing of the Benefits in Settling in his Britannie Majs' Dominions of America and that Great Encouragement was given by the Province to foreign protestants".

    On 13 June 1753, Jno. Pearson certifies that on 7 November 1752 he measured and laid out unto Benedict Kuhn 150 acres (50 acres for each member of his family) "lying in the forks between Broad and Saludy rivers up the branches of Crims creek and is butting and bounding on the Southwestward part of land belonging to Johannes Kounts to the Northeastward part of land belonging to Hans Windle Hollman". It seems certain that Benedict's neighbor, Johannes Kounts (who received his grant 1 December 1749) was a relative of Benedict's since Johannes' last name is spelled as Couns, Kountz and Kounts. Benedict's grant for his land was entered as a Royal Grant Vol. 6, p. 197 under the date of 1 January 1755 in the county of Newberry, South Carolina. His closest neighbors were Johannes Kounts, Andreas Hollman, Michael Peteboy, Andrew Meyer, Hans Windle Hollman, John Hendrick Welcher, Margaret Kerner, Reverend Jno Gasserts, Michael Bohner, Jno Adam Esting and Peter Dipest ( ? ) (Elders of Dissenting Congregation), Nicholas Priester, John Adam Epting, Andrew Rista, Charles Leopold Schuber and Michael Bauch.

    Notes:

    Nicholas Kuhn, who according to ship records and grant applications was not born by 1756 but according to his death notice was born in 1746. Most researchers believe the ship records because Benedict's land grant was for 150 acres (50 acres for each family member). So Nicholas Kuhn was born circa 1753 in Newberry County, South Carolina. He is listed as a millwright when he buys 150 acres of land close to his father, Benedict, on Crim's Creek in the fork of Broad and Saludy Rivers, from George Hollman on 3 April 1773. This was probably about the time of Nicholas' marriage to Mary DeWalt. Nicholas and Mary moved to Rutherford County, North Carolina by 1790, settled on Cedar Creek and erected a corn mill. He appears in the third Co. of the 1790 census, five houses from John Ownbey, close to the Ledbetters, Harris', Nanneys, Hills, Hamptons, Daltons, Searcys, Morgans and Bradleys.

    Nicholas' death notice appears in the North Carolina Spectator and Western Advertiser, Rotherfordton, North Carolina, issue of 31 December 1831 as follows; "On Bill's Creek, in this county, on the 26th inst., Mr. Nicholas Coon, aged 83 years." (Note: this was the day after Christmas and most believe his age to be about 78 instead of 83).
