An entry in the old Lutheran church book at Ellerstadt gives the record of his baptism: &amp;quot;Anno 1723. Den 29 Jan. 1st, Jonas Huber und Seiner frau ,Anna Maria ein sohn gebohren und den 7ten Feb. Andreas getauft.&amp;quot; The house of his birth, number 17 Fleissgasse, was demolished in 1900, but the barn and vintner&amp;#39;s building were left.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;When he was 15 years old he emigrated to America, where two of his brothers him, preceded him,6 Johannes on the Mortonhouse, 8-24-1728, and Christian on the Dragon 9-30-1732. Andreas arrived at Philadelphia, 9-9-1738, on the Two Sisters. He stayed with his brother s and friends in the rich farmland of Lancaster Co, Pennsylvania until he was 22 years old when he marrled Margaret Pfautz, who came to America with her parents on the William and Sarah, arriving 9-8-1727. In 1746 Andreas and Margaret moved to Carrol County, MD, and, in 1750, patented fifty acres of land called Mirey Spring along Little Pipe Creek at the head of Chesapeake Bay near Uniontown. Here their children, except probably the youngest were born. During these years Andreas Huber changed his name to Andrew Hoover.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;About 1772 Andrew took his family through the wilderness by oxcart to the Uwharrie River in Randolph County, NC. In 1779 he bought 200 acres on the east side of the river. Much land was available because the new state of North Carolina had taken it away from the British and Tories. Andrew and his sons subsequently acquired many acres of the best land in the state. 16, 43 They cut an empire out of the wildern(&amp;#39;ss. established a dynasty, and prospered. 17 was wild country. Daniel Boone was a neighbor on the Yadkin, of which the Uwharrie was a tributary. Many of the traditions of the Uwharrie are Hoover traditions.&amp;quot;The story goes that Andrew Hoover was not afraid of man, beast, or devil, that he climbed to the top of Eagle Nest Rock when others were afraid to, that he swam the raging Uwharrie to save the lives of his horses, that, while others in the settlement were home&amp;#39; in fear, he set out to face the headless horseman on the Uwharrie trails and brav(&amp;#39; the other ghostly figures that moved like lost souls down the valley. &amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Andrew built a grist mill at the fork of the Uwharrie, and this was an important granary of the Revolution. The family also gave $500 to the Revolutionary cause --a large sum of money in those days. But there is no record of these Hoovers as soldiers in the Revolution.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;A small business center grew up at the forks around the Hoover mill, where the big wheels operated a sash mill to hew logs into slabs when not turning to grind corn. This mill remained in the Hoover family for more than a hundred and fifty years. In 1792 Andrew left the mill for his son Jacob to run, and he retired to a farm where Cedar Run joins the larger river. In 1794 he made a Will, appointing his wife and eldest son, Jonas, as executors. Shortly afterwards he died and was buried near Back Creek on the Uwharrie. His widow died three years later, in 1797.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Andrew Hoover&amp;#39;s ancestry was Swiss. The Huber famlly goes back to Bertoldus Hubere, b. about 1185, a citizen of Bern and the younger son of a minor landed knight or baron of Switzerland. His son, Burchard dictus Hubere, b. about 1222, acquired a fief from Sir Ludwig von Liebegg in 1268 in the Valley of the Wyna River, Oberkulm, in the present Canton Aargau, Switzerland. His descendant, Hans Huber, was deputy sheriff of Oberkulm, where he was granted a fief by Lord Hans Friederich von Hallwyl.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Georg Huber, son of Hans Huber, was deputy sheriff at Lensberg, 1641, and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;miller of Oberkulm. Georg&amp;#39;s son Johan Heinrich Huber (b. about 1644 in Oberkulm, d. 1744; m. Margaretta Hoffman) was a linen weaver of Oberkulm. Because,of the Swiss Pietist persecution, he migrated to Ellerstadt in the German palatinate.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;came to America in 1738.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Andreas&amp;#39;s son, John M. Hoover, is the GG Grandfather of Herbert&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Hoover.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;So, even though the name means a person working a farm/land or&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;is an old&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;German word Hube&amp;#39;, pronounced &amp;quot;Hubay&amp;quot;, meaning the possessor of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;a tract of&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;land or a small farm, this line above did come from Switzerland&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;09 SEP 1738 on the ship Two Sisters, arrived in, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 4 5&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Event: Moving 1746 Carroll County, Maryland&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;More About&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Andreas (Andrew Hoover) Huber&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;and&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Margaret Catherine Pfouts&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: times; font-size: medium"&gt;Marriage: 1745, Lancaster Co., PA.&lt;/span&gt;</line></content></metadataxml>
