Notes

This Conrad may be a descendant of the immigrant, Conrad Schawermann (Hunter List #643). He was born before 1770.

"In the late 19th century, this community [Hunterstown] renamed itself[clarify] as Livingston Manor, after descendants of the prominent Livingston family who had a house there. But it was not part of the original manor, a huge estate granted by the English Crown about 60 miles (97 km) east in present-day Dutchess and Columbia counties. That extended on both sides of the Hudson River. In the early 18th century, the original manor was the site of work camps along the Hudson, where Palatine German refugees worked off their passage to New York paid by the Crown. They produced timber and supplies for the English navy. Later they were allowed to settle in the Schoharie and Mohawk valleys." ^[4]
