Thanks, Charles for the plug, I would like to add that whenever the Source #401 is mentioned, it refers to postings one can find in the AMREV-HESSIANS-L rootsweb archives.

4. [REV-HESSIANS] HESSENLAND mail list for German-speakers. [1]
Hello, subscribers, this may not be of interest to everybody, but you may mention this to your German friends and neighbours who are on the Internet. There is a new mailing list for the central part of Germany (Hessen) but it is restricted to the use of German-speakers, no postings in English to be made for the benefit of those Germans who do not speak and write English. It is designed to serve those family roots searchers whose ancestors never left the old country. To subscribe you use the same commands

6. [REV-HESSIANS] Re: Arnold Haupt, Grenadier v.Donop Regt. [1]
Hello, Ray, excellent research job on your part, except that your Arnold Haupt was a Grenadier with the Hesse-Kassel Regt.von Donop, which was not a part of the Burgoyne Army, which surrendered at Saratoga. The Regt.v Donop landet with the Hessian troops at New York and took part in many battles, Long Island, Fort Washington, Brandywine, Germantown, Springfield, and I think in June 1778 when Arnold Haupt deserted, they were somewhere near Philadelphia. (would suggest to read the 'Diary of Lieutenant von Ba
7. [REV-HESSIANS] Hessian Soldier [1]
My brick wall is coming down on the origin of my maternal name of Kripliver/Kriplever. My one cousin told me yesterday that there was a Hessian soldier of the last name of Kriplever. He said he saw the name in a book about Revolutionary soldiers. GFS Nance@aol.com
8. [REV-HESSIANS] Re: Fort Mercer, 22 - 23 October 1777 [1]
Dear Adam Geibel, my strongest suggestion would be to start your new year with subscribing to the AMREV-HESSIANS mail list, which has to offer a lot of information concerning Hessian soldiers anywhere in America, which includes Canada. Just check out the archives, and since I am putting this over the list, you may get some good pointers from our other subscribers. Wish you also a happy New Year.

12. [REV-HESSIANS] HETRINA volumes for sale [1]
Just picked up a notice at another mailing list where the Hetrina volumes were offered for sale, and I received permission to advertise these on our list. Anyone interested please contact Mark at mailto:sullivm1@hoffman.army.mil Please do not ask me, I have no idea how much he is asking, and if he has the full set of six volumes. Cheers, John
13. [REV-HESSIANS] For the NEW beginners, and the 'well-entrenched' subscribers. [1]
Dear subscribers of my list - last year I mailed a similar message to all those lists I was participating, and was in fact contemplating to do so again, when this following message came in. Since permission was granted to re-publish it (giving proper credit, of course) I would like to endorse 'Bill's eloquent message whole-heartedly, to impress on you a bit of tolerance, and by the same token, impress even more to those who are starting out, to read up on the 'how to do things right' before getting to deep
14. Re: [REV-HESSIANS] Johann Wrede/Ancestry.com [1]
Louise, nice try, but I think there is a bit of a mix-up. I have read the Fort Brooklyn Muster Rolls myself, dated 20. July 1781 with the names of the Brunswick recruits, I deciphered them myself and only later I did check them against other lists. The name they or you were reading as Johann Wrede I read as Johann Weithe, born in Rostock, age given as 35/05 (middle of 1779) which makes him born appr. 1744. Rostock is situated right at the south coast of the Baltic Sea, and did belong to Prussia at one time.
15. Re: AMREV-HESSIANS-D Digest V99 #321 [1]
Forgot. Imagine an Hessian who became: Jirimie Bleu, who married a Mailhot in my ancestry. Then you search and find: Lebleu, Leblanc, Blue, Lablue and what else. Much fun. I'll find the link back to the origins of BLEU is I don't get the blues first.

John's Book "Guide to finding your Hessian Soldier" (which is quite good and reasonable). Has listed Schoenbacher, Schoendach, Schoenell, Schoenemann, and Schoentag with first names and references. There are other references to specific troops , battles, and movements, as well. Charles Severs
19. [REV-HESSIANS] Kessler, Michael (or Kasler/Kesler/Kisler/Castle) wounded at Bennington. [1]
I have to address the list because I have a mystery on my hands, which I am sure could be solved by one of our dedicated subscribers. We haved had enquiries before of this name, but none with the explicit details provided now by Michael P. Kasler of Ohio. In a letter to me he included an account which said that Michael was born in 1758, and came to America as a Hessian soldier of the Prince of Hesse-Cassel. In a Vermont Historical Magazine July 1863 it was stated that he was wounded at the Battle of Benning
20. [REV-HESSIANS] Re: Johan Friedrich Beerwort [1]
For the record, yes, I am researching Hessian and Brunswick soldiers who remained in North America after the American Revolution. All I can say at this point in time, that I have not come across this name as yet. This is why I put it over the mail lists and see what happens.

Can anyone tell me how to go about finding the place of birth, etc. in Germany for my ancesor John Corrick, who was in Frederick Co., MD, and then settled in Randolph Co., VA, possibly dying in Ohio. I just recently I learned the following and am unfamiliar with Hessian records: Johann Kaspar Karrich from the Ansbach-Bayreuth Regiment was in Frederick County, Maryland for a few years after the war, but must have gone elsewhere before 1800. He was surrendered at Yorktown, Va. in 1781, imprisoned in Freder

24. Re: [REV-HESSIANS] Re: Johann Wrede/Ancestry.com [1]
Dear Louise, during my many years of research I have discovered that we have a tremendous problem with secondary sources of information, which become third and fourth sources in no time, and now those Ancestry.com source perhaps the fifth source, and everytime somebody quotes a source (and this includes me) we may quote some wrong information. The moral of the story - go for the original source! The dear departed Clifford Neal Smith, whose monographs are a third source of Hessian information already, afte
25. Book Lookup - Brunswick Deserter Immigrants of Am. Rev. [1]
Book by Smith, Clifford Neal - entitled (I believe) "Brunswick Deserter Immigrants of American Revolution" reportedly has an entry on page 39 regarding a Julius SCHRADER, age 29 (in 1776). I would greatly apreciate receiving the information on this entry or a reference on where I might find the book.
