THE WIFE AND FAMILY OF JOHN CONRAD BUCHER4
μInasmuch as there has been hitherto considerable uncertainty in regard
to the parentage of the wife of John Conrad Bucher, we have, after considerable
research, gathered the following facts. In 1733 John George Hoke and his
wife, Barbara, with their family, arrived in Philadelphia from Germany.
Among the minor children recorded in the Pennsylvania archives was John
George, Jr. The town of York in Pennsylvania was laid out by order of the
Proprietors in 1741 and the first lots were sold in November of that year.
Among the first purchaser of lots was Samuel Hoak, who purchased lot 105,
and George Hoak, who purchased the adjoining lot, No. 107. These men we
know to have been brothers, and the latter was the father of Mrs. Bucher.
Prior to locating in York, George Hoak married in Lancaster county, Barbara
Lefevre, who was either a daughter or granddaughter of Isaac Lefevre, who
married Catharine, the eldest daughter of Madame Ferree. The Ferrees and
Lefevres were french Huguenots, who fled from France at the Revocation
of the Edict of Nantes, and located in the Palatinate. From thence they
went in 1709 to England, being assisted by Queen Ann, and from thence to
New York and two years later (1712) to Pennsylvania, locating on lands
granted them by William Penn during their sojourn in England.* [* see memorials
of the Hugenots by the author of this article.] George Hoak and wife,
Barbara, were among the first members of the Reformed Church at York.
Their eldest child seems to have been Mary Magdalena. They also had
a son, Benjamin, who in Provincial days settled near Winchester, Va., and
Peter, who was one of the first citizens of Uniontown, Fayette county,
Penna.
Some time prior to 1759 George Hoak removed to Carlisle, Penna. There
is extant a letter from a presumable suitor addressed to Molly Hoke, Carlisle,
dated September 13, 1759, in which the writer pays his respects to her
parents. On August 21, 1761, his son in law, Lieutenant Bucher, wrote to
him from Fort Pitt, addressing his letter to George Hoke, Esq., Carlisle.
Finally, the records of the county show that in 1762 George Hoke, of Carlisle,
died, and his wife Barbara became his executrix. The identity of the family
is thus incontrovertible established. The Hoke family attended the Presbyterian
Church, under Dr. Duffield, and that distinguished minister likewise performed
the ceremony at the marriage of Lieutenant Bucher and Mary Magdalena, or
"Molly" Hoke, which occurred, as we have stated, on February 26, 1760*
[*footnote: She was born February 2d, 1742, at York, Penna., and died at
the home of her son at Alexandria, Pa.,
March 11th, 1819.] On November 4th, 1762, Dr. Duffield gave Mrs.
Bucher an honorable dismissal from his congregation * [footnote: Rupp's,
Berks Co. P. 458.] and inasmuch as Lieutenant Bucher soon thereafter assumed
the functions of the ministry, we are inclined to the belief that the spring
of 1763 marks the beginning of the Reformed Society at Carlisle under his
care, while serving as an officer of the garrison. Their family consisted
of four children, namely, John Jacob, who was born January 1st, 1764, and
died October 16, 1827. John George was born October 4, 1766, and died April
8, 1843; Mary Elizabeth was born April 8th, 1773, and died in 1791, and
John Conrad, who was born June 18, 1775, and died in 1852, besides two
that died in infancy.ξ4
