Notes
a. Note:   Johann Diel BOHN/BOHNE b.1711, Germany
 Posted: 2 Sep 2009 9:47AM
 Classification: Query
 Surnames: Johnson, Rose, Smalling, Hoss, Bohne
 I would please like to verify info that I found for
 Johann Diel Bohne, Born 5 April 1704? Born in Devonshire, England? Christened in 16 Jul 1706? Christened in Brandninch, Devonshire, England? Died in Exeter, Burk, PA? Died 30 Jan 1776? Married in 1720, Carroll County, MD, wife Anna Maria Dicker, 1720-1777? Children, Nicholas, Abaraham, Margaret, my ancestor, Mary Diel Bohne, Jacob, Catherine, Elizabeth, Adam. Some say he was born in Germany. They report a source of a Johann Dweal Pohn (Phonetic) arriving from Germany. I'm sure you are familiar with this, see below. I hae great respect for you and your research. And may I have your thoughts, opinions, ideas, knowledge, proof or whatever you've got.
  "In the year 1741 a German immigrant by the name of Johann Dial Bohne landed in Philadelphia. Doughtless his wife and 3 or 4 sons were with him. Johann gave his age as 30. The ship's passenger list shows that Johann Diel Bohne arrived in Philadelphia on the ship "Marlborough" in 1741. He is number 47 on the list as "Dewaile Poon" (phonetically the German "B" is often mistaken for "P"). The Oath of Allegiance of the "Marlborough's passengers was made 23 Sept 1741 at the courthouse in Philadelphia. Present were The Honorable George Thomas, Esq.. Lieutenant Governor, and Samuel Hassell, Esq., Mayor of Philadelphia. On 10 Apr 1750, 50 acres near Frizellburg, now Carroll Co. MD, called "Boon's Content" were patented to Theobald Boon. He named 5 sons and 4 daughters in his will: Nicholas stayed in MD, Jacob went to Virginia, Abraham went to Virginia, Margaret stayed in MD, Mary went to Tenn, John went to Virginia, Catherine stayed in MD, Elizabeth went to Tenn, Adam no further information. From "The German Bohne-Bohn-Boon-Boone Family" by Nellie (Woods) Whedon 1945."
 You and I discussed Mary Ann Hoss, daughter of John Hoss, about a week ago.

 Jeannette,
  This information is incorrect:
  I would please like to verify info that I found for
 Johann Diel Bohne, Born 5 April 1704? Born in Devonshire, England? Christened in 16 Jul 1706? Christened in Brandninch, Devonshire, England? Died in Exeter, Burk, PA? Died 30 Jan 1776? Married in 1720, Carroll County, MD, wife Anna Maria Dicker, 1720-1777?
  The names of the children are correct. Nellie Whedon Woods information is the correct information. She wrote an article on the family around 1945. Every bit of the information I have double checked on her is right on. I've seen photo copies of the immigrant records of 1741 in Pennsylvania. The "Poon" is because it is poorly written. His oath of allegance is the best signature and is clearly Johann Diel Bohn. He was age 30 at time of immigration, which would make his approximate date of birth as 1741.
  While in Germany I found a Bohn family member who took a DNA test. I also found a Boon male descendant of Johann Diel Bohn in US who took the DNA test. They were a perfect match, supporting the research of Nellie Whedon that they were German ... not British.
  Also when you look at the baptismal records of descendants of Johann Diel Bohn for the first couple of generations, they are all German churches.
