In the latter part of August, 1793, Adam & his wife Ann Freas with their family of 8 left for Canada. They were 6 weeks on the road, covering about 500 miles through the wilderness. The roads were only Indian trails between settlements. The women & children rode the horses & on wagons. The men walked, & drove the cattle & sheep. They brought their household goods on pack horses. Upon their arrival in Canada, the family settled in the northern part of Gainsborough Township, Lincoln County, (Lot 21in the 6th concession) on The Twenty, or Jordan Creek. In 1794, he built a saw mill & a grist mill on the Twenty mile creek, & the community became known as Snyder's Mills. Shortly thereafter, the name of the settlement was changed to St. Ann's. Family legend states that Ann befriended the Indians who came to her door, & was so good to them that they looked upon her as a saint & named the Snyder place "St. Ann's." Their children established homes to the east of the homestead, lot after lot. Ann died 1807, followed by Adam in 1826. Both are buried in St. Ann's churchyard.

The village was first known by the name Ermingardibruggern, & was the seat of a knightly family, & later a customs office with market rights. Ref: Wikipedia. . Müeller's House: > The Mayor's estate was the first on the left side of the road & likely one of the oldest dwellings in the lower part of the village. For a long time the mayor's office was located in the house whose name was constantly changing because of the various people marrying into the Müeller's family. . One of the Mayors, besides being a farmer, was a Müellerman /Miller, Inn-keeper & Toll-collector. Milling requires water power, possibly explaining the name of the farm's name, 'Im Teich'. ('In the Pond' ). The partial remaining building is now known as Müeller's Butcher Shop & on the main street in the Grimbach side of Erndtebrück.

| 10836 | Catherine B Kuhn's first husband was also named John Willson. He was born in 1745 Carrickfergus Ireland & died bet. 1788 Poughkeepsie, NJ. The widow Willson accompanied her son Hugh L Willson to Sharon, Ontario. Children of Catherine B Kuhn & her first husband John Willson of Nine Partners, Duchess Co., NY., were David, John J, Ann & Mary Willson. Her son is David Wilson of Children of Peace, Sharon, Ontario. . KUHN FAMILY HISTORY KUHN is a German surname. Some biographers give Catherine as HER PARENTS being born in Scotland. In all certainty this is a misunderstanding of the surname Kuhn, thinking it was derived from the Scottish Colquhoun, which is pronounced Coon! . 1928 Kate Koon Bovey visited Bischmisheim, Germany (near Saarbrucken) & saw the Luther Baptism records for Matthias Kuntz (born bet. 1660-67) s/o Matthias Kuntz married1, Anna Margaretha Margaret, d. 2.2.1704 & married2 on 10.1. 1704 to Anna Margaretha Spitz of Frankfurt. Later she visited where Mathias lived in Clove*, near the towns of Poughquag & Beekman in the Poughkeepsie Valley, NY. Later they lied in Germantown also on the Hudson River. Nicholas's wife was Philetta. Matthias Kuntz left for America in 1790, via Holland & England & landed 1710 Germantown, NY. 13 children by 2 marriages. Ref: Koon & Coons families of eastern NY, Kate Koon Bovey, 1841-1912 of Minneapolis, Minn., published 1937. . Catherine's son David Willson was the founder of the Children of Peace, in Sharon, Ontario. A favourite topic of Willson's was "Public Affairs, their Total Depravity," coupled with denunciations of the so-called Family Compact," of the ruling rich families. Catherine's 2nd husband, John Willson, UE., would no doubt have been sympathetic to this point of view. Gov. John Graves Simcoe in first appointments made John Willson a Magistrate in the new Upper Canada & Willson was soon sidelined by the Family Compact. . John Willson, Esq.'s first wife Rebecca Thickson died 6 June 1804 in Markham, Ontario. . 1805 Sept. 18, Catherine & John Willson Sr. were married by the Rev. John Strachan in St. James Cathedral, Town of York. Perhaps John Willson & Mrs. Catherine Kuhn Willson first met at York Mills (Wilson Avenue) where for some time son John Willson, Jr. operated a mill. John Willson, Jr. was also the trustee for a small chapel at York Mills which the David Willson & his Children of Peace used to hold services, much to the annoyances of Rev. Strachan. Fifteen years after they married, John & Katherine were living on Yonge Street in Markham where, on 15 June, 1820, John Willson filed a claim for this War of 1812 service. PJ Ahlberg, 2012 . Town of (Lower) Red Hook, Dutchess Co., New York (also known as Tivoli): Ncholas Bonesteel & Anna Margretha Kuhn, his wife, with some of their children, were among the early settlers. A portion of the village of Red Hook is now on the easterly part of their farm. Of their descendants, Philip N. Bonesteel was a merchant, magistrate & post-master in Red Hook for many years. His son, Virgil D., was Surrogate of Dutchess county in 1844. John, James, Daniel & Robert Wilson, 4 brothers, settled in the vicinity of Upper Red Hook before 1770, & engaged in farming. The two eldest married the Kuhn sisters, daughters of Simon Kuhn. John married Elizabeth & James married Anna Kuhn, d/o Catharine Linch & Simon Kuhn. Ref: History of Dutchess Co., NY, 1882, by James H Smith. Hugh L. Willson who returned there from the York Mills area in 1819. John Sr. died 8 July 1829, aged 90, & his funeral was conducted by the Rev. Strachan in the meeting house of the Children of Peace. This is highly ironic as the Rev. Strachan preached in the same little chapel at York Mills as did David Willson "much to the annoyance of the inhabitants." Soon after the death of John Willson Sr., the Rev. Strachan took control of this chapel without the consent of many of those who had contributed to its building, & banned David Willson from using it. Catherine Willson died 10 Feb. 1840, aged 86. Both John & Catherine are buried in the Children of Peace cemetery. * In your letter of the 24th ult., 1829 you asked about one John Willson who died at Hope (Sharon, ON) about this old man was called Squire Willson. He was David Willson's stepfather, my father's stepmother's second husband (Katherine Kuhn). Her first husband, also called John Willson, died about 1788 in Duchess County, New York). She soon after married Squire Willson who was a man highly respected. He came, I believe form NS in Gov. Simcoe's time & was by the Governor much thought of. He had a large family by a former wife, but none by this one. There are a number of great grandchildren, living in the Twps. of York & Scarborough. There was a grandson of his, John Willson by name, in the service of the Canada Company at the time of the settling of Goderich & neighborhood. When these old people became helpless, David Willson took them home & kept them until they died. They died poor but honest. They once had property which his children spent for them.
