Biography

Daniel Rapp & Nancy Kyle married in 1811 in Tennessee, USA. ^[1]

Military Service:

• Colonel Ewen Allison's Regiment, East Tennessee Militia, War of 1812. Rank at Induction and Discharge: Private. ^[2]
• Captain Jonas Loughmiller's Company, Tennessee Militia. ^[3]

As of the 1830 United States Federal Census, Daniel was living in Crawford, Missouri in a household of 11 persons (9 under the age of 20). ^[4] Since the other 2 people listed are of age 20-49, as of the census enumeration Daniel appears to have not reached his 50th birthday. An enumeration date is not visible on the document reviewed.

Research Notes

Some public family trees on Ancestry attach Pennsylvania Church Records to the Daniel Rapp reflected in this profile. Neither of these records seems relevant.

• The first is for a baptism 27Mar1787 where a Daniel Rapp is listed as a Sponsor. (Parents: Mr. & Mrs. George Brautigam. Born, Baptized: Susanna Brautigam. Sponsors: Susanna Brautigam, Daniel Rapp) This baptism took place in Berks County, Pennsylvania at Zion's and Spiess's Reformed and Lutheran Church. ^[5] [Since the Daniel represented by this WikiTree profile would have been about 7 years old, it seems unlikely the church record mentioned is for the same Daniel Rapp.]
• The second is for a Daniel Rapp's baptism 28Apr1796 at the Schwartzwald Reformed Church in Berks County, Pennsylvania. His mother is listed as Christina Rapp. ^[6] [Per the marriage record cited in this profile, Daniel was born in 1780. If this church record is for the same Daniel, he would have been 16 years old when baptized. While possible, this seems unlikely. Meanwhile, if the baptism was soon after birth and Daniel was born April 1796, per the marriage record cited in this profile, he would have been about 13-15 years old when he married in 1809-1811. Again, while possible (?), this seems unlikely.]

According to Wayne Pryer's research, ^[7]

• Daniel & Nancy were married 16Jul1809, Kyles Ford, Hawkins, Tennessee, United States.
• Daniel Rap is listed in the 1810 Lee County, Virginia Tax List. ^[8]
• Daniel & Nancy's children: Amelia F, Margaret Polly, Sarah, Esther, Joseph, Martha, Unknown, Nelson, James Madison, Easter Malinda.

Various other public family trees on Ancestry attach the 1810 United States Federal Census entry for Daniel Rapp in Wythe, Virginia to the man reflected by this WikiTree profile. ^[9] Are these two 1810 entries (Lee County, Virginia; Wythe County, Virginia) for the same or different men?
