Biography
Heinrich 'Henry' Koontz (Kuntz) was born circa 1728 in the Netherlands. He immigrated to to Emmitsburg, Maryland circa 1765. [1]
Henry married Anna Dorothea (Federkeil) Koontz (1728-1798).
He passed away in 1822. [2]
Notes
- The names of Henry’s children come from his will and are quoted in Monocacy and Catoctin, Vol. 3 at the Koon website. The article states he or his father was probably a Palatine German who embarked for America from the Netherlands. There seems to be some uncertainty about which "Henry" was the immigrant.
- There is a Henry "Coons" listed with his wife, ages 45 & up in the Jackson County, Ohio census for 1820. He is no longer there in 1830. Could this be the Henry who died in 1821? Need to verify this. (1/17/2003).
- There is also a William Crow and his wife at about the same age listed in the same census.
- There is a Jacob Koontz listed “as a settler or owner of the Military lots surveyed for the state by Francis Deakins in 1788.” p. 7
