Chester "Gunn, only ' brother, 're- moved to E. Henrletta, Monroe. Co., N. Y. where he was recorded in the 1830 census as a farmer, But no record of his father" or mother. was left' that we have so far been able to find.
All 'circumstantial evidence points clearly to Warham and Grace (Shep- ard) Gunn as the parents. Warham 5 (Reuben 5, Thomas 3, John 2, Thomas'1), Gunn 'married (int.), May 25 .: 1777, Grace . "4 (John 3, 2, 1) Shepard. He owned a farm in Bland- ford, which he sold in 1791. We lost his trail there until we found him and his wife;recorded as joining the East Hebron Presbyterian church, when it was founded in 1804. Lost him again in 1811 when he. is be- lieved to have removed to Pawlet, Vt. Would like to know where he and his wife and family are buried., In . Hebron, they were living with or near her father, who kept an inn on the turnpike aided by his son John 4. A large number of other brothers of Grace were also living nearby. We' believe all removed and we would like to know whither they went.
But most of all we would like some 'dependable record, that names Warham and, or Grace Gunn as the parents of at least one of these 8 children.

PALATINE WEISERS
"Feversham." On board the Lyon' were 402 "poor Palatines," among them thirteen year old Conrad Weis- er; (whom Count Zingendorf in good time was to style the "Emperor of the Iroquois); with his father and seven brothers and sisters. The fath- er was John Conrad Weiser, the mother Anna Magdalina (Umelin), died before sailing.
As you know there was no first Palatine, as they came over in large of groups for several years in the ear- ly 1700s. The "Book of Names" by MacWethy gives lists of names Palatines as well as the Kocherthal Records. I have both the biography of Conrad Weiser, a new book pub- lished in 1945 and the "Book of Names." So if there is any addition- al information you wish I will gladly send it to you.

That shone red in the campfires gleam.
And here in one a child was ushered! in:
A man child naked, and so very small,
Yet , the years that passed since that day
Reads that he grew both grave, and tall. .
Since, war, and red men thinned their number
As time passed and as they grew Into' small villages, made by hard- ships, --
From Livingston Manor came those first few.
Fifty families goes the history
To grants upon this foreign shore, To help America in its great birth, And to drink of freedom evermore. Back of all their valiant lives
Is blood and sorrow, and lean years;
· naught,
When Indian arrows brought deaths' tears.
Then came the American Revolu- tion,
Fought by red men, and red-coats alike, Men were torn from needy families To fight for freedom that was right.
Handed down from the Schoharle history
Was the record of my grandparent Freemier,
Who became one of the valley's pa- triots
Among the first fifty was his wife's sire.
Around the valley went the legends, Around the shrines of Pioneer life, Among Mohawk Tribes many a
chieftain
Sallied forth to take a white man's wife.
Often when men came from their labors
They found not child, nor wife, nor kin,
Their cabin homes lay in one red' heạp of ashes,
And all their hardship for naught had been.
Among the legends of this valley Was an ancestor of mine who lost -his cow
While following the tinkle of the bell He was waylaid in the woods some- how.
He was tricked by a sly red man And later found in a wildwood tree, Quartered, and halved by those who slew him
Then left there for all to see. So among these Mohawk Pioneers of mine
Have come stories from here and there,
And I am proud of all I ever heard, Knowing they fought for right to live and dare. Grace H. Peterson.
In rhyme I have set down a few" points of history that might be the means of obtaining some pioneer his- tory, as well as a clue to my right line of genealogy. The Johannes

FROM MOHAWK VALLEY
Upon the rolling plains of Schoharle, Where winds a river by this name Came my forebears seeking freedom, Handy enough to live on roots and game.
The time was winter, all snowed un- der,
Thelr travel was by foot and team; It took a sturdy race to follow
The pathway of wild animals, that seem
To have had the run of all the val- ley,
With red men who roamed at win, And only their primitive crles
Had broken the silence with thelr wild shrill.
Here thev bullt a shelter with the willowis
That grew along the frozen stream, Then covered it with. the stitched
sire.
Around the valley went the legends, Around the shrines of Ploneer life, Among Mohawk Tribes many a
chleftaln
Sallled forth to take a white man's wife.
Often when men came from thelr labors
They found not child, nor wife, nor kin,
Thelr cabin homes lay in one red' heap of ashes,
And all their hardship for naught had been.
Among the legends of this valley Was an ancestor of mine who lost -his cow
Whlle following the tinkle of the bell He was waylaid in the woods some- how.
, He was tricked by a sly red man And later found in a wildwood tree, Quartered, and halved by those who slew him
Then left there for all to see.
So among these Mohawk Pioneers of mine
Have come storles from here and there,
Hauseman, Stahler, Christian, Hoch, And I am proud of all I ever heard,
Knowing they fought for right to live and dare. Grace / H. Peterson.
In-rhyme I-have set down"a few. points of history that might be the means of obtaining some pioneer his- tory, as well as a clue to my right line of genealogy. The Johannes Fremmier was a direct ancestor of mine, and the man who was killed dent Huguenot-Walloon Commission. ] by the Indians was the grandfather
of my father or a great grandfath- er. His son, James Herron (Her- ring) was married to Cathrine Bouck (Bauoh) in 1825 in the Luth- eran church at Schoharie. She was a granddaughter of one of the first families of Schoharle valley.
