Mrs Anna Barbara Harpole and her family arrived in Philadelphia on Oct. 28th, 1738. She was a twenty-nine year old Protestant widow with five young sons. They arrived aboard the bilander Thistle of Philadelphia. George Houston was the captain. The ship had sailed from Rotterdam, Netherlands, via Cowes, England. This was because only British ships were permitted to land at American ports of the period. The passengers imported on this voyage consisted of forty-two men, thirty-six boys, forty-one women and twenty-three girls. A total of 142 passengers.2 3
A bilander was a two masted vessel and its distinguishing feature was the large trapezoidal mainsail, the forward end of which came as far forward as the middle of the ship. Steerage passengers were densely packed, often with poor food and bad water. Disease was commonplace. Christopher Sauer, a German printer in Philadelphia, mentioned in a letter, in that same year of 1738, that 2,000 Germans had just died of a "pest" on immigrant ships. No doubt this was an exaggeration, Sauer was crusading on behalf of the German immigrants; but we can be sure there was some truth in his assertion.
Upon arrival in Philadelphia, Anna, as head of the family, was probably immediately marched under guard to the Court House where she was required to swear the Oath of Allegiance to the Protestant King George the Second and explicitly state her refusal to give any allegiance to the former Catholic King James, or any of his heirs. She was then taken back to the Thistle.
Afterwards Anna would have been free to leave the vessel if she had enough passage money. If she did not, she was consigned, along with others in that sorry state, to a merchant. An advertisment would have been printed in a Philadelphia newspaper. Buyers would have bargained with her for a stated period of her domestic or other service. After the Indenture, her sworn and witnessed agreement, was signed by her. The buyer would have paid the merchant her passage money and any other debts that she owed to the Captain. The buyer then received the servant in exchange. Families were often divided at this point, the able-bodied children being "sold" into temporary servitude to pay the family's passage.
What precisely happened in the Herboldt family's case is currently unknown. Nicholas, we can be reasonably certain, was too young to be separated. Anna must have found some immediate employment. It is at least possible that she had a contact in the New World and some money before she made the fateful decision to take her young family across the Atlantic. The probability is that Anna made the transition successfully as we know that her son Hans was later apprenticed to a brickmaker.
1782 - A "Widow Harple" of New Hanover Township, County of Philadelphia, was assessed for ?0.18.9 being her annual effective supply tax. Her total valuation was listed as ?150.4
1783 - A "Widow Harple" of New Hanover Township, County of Philadelphia, was listed as possessing 85 acres but no horses, cattle, sheep or negroes for her annual Federal tax assessment.5
1790 - A "Widow Harple" was living in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania with, presumably, her five children all under sixteen; three girls and two boys. Census 1790
A John Harple of Montgomery county, PA, [born 1752] is listed as a Pennsylvanian [Military] Pensioner, [former rank of] pr[ivate in the] P[ennsylvanian] L[ine, pension payments were activated on] March 1 1821[when he reached the age of 69]; [he then] d[ied on] June 22, 1832, [at the age of] 80.6 Square here brackets denote assumptions.

Looking for information on the ancestry of John Barkley who appears in the records of Northampton County, NC, from about 1800 on until he disappears therefrom after 1820. He was married to Rebecca Doles (died before May 18, 1820), daughter of Francis Doles, sometime between 1805 and 1812, and they had five children, Francis Doles Barkley, Martha Mariah Barkley (gg-grandmother of the undersigned), Jesse F Barkley, John R. Barkley and Rebecca J. Barkley. He was also apparently a fairly prominent person for, according to his grandson, Benj. F. McLemore, John Barkley was a NC state senator. Despite this info, I have been unable to connect him. Any help would be greatly appreciated, and I would in return be willing to supply info on his McLemore descendants and/or info on his wife's family. Reply either here or directly to:
John David McLemore, a descendant, emailed in July 2010 that Britain McLemore's wife was "Minnie Fry Barksdale (she was related directly to Joshua Fry who commanded George Washington before the French and Indian War broke out, among other things. She also had Maury blood in her too. James Maury was the teacher of Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Meriwether Lewis. Minnie was from Charlottesville,VA Albemarle County and coincidentally grew up right off of Barksdale Street.)"

Also published in The Sabine County Reporter, July 4, 2018, page 8
Wrote a history/genealogy column for the Sabine County Reporter, later formeed to a facebook group of the same name, "Farm Road 1 - From one end to another."
He died of COVID, and the tribute below was posted on the SABINE COUNTY REPORTER facebook page on August 26, 2021, along with a photo.
July 22, 2021. Breakfast was busy that Thursday, but he was who I needed to talk to most. Pineland Day was on the horizon and I wanted to get as many details as I could. He gave me a date and invited me over to his house where he had been collecting memorabilia of Pineland Day for years- maybe for that museum he often talked about. But before we could get too deep into what was happening in October, Ronald wanted to talk about a new cooperative program through 4H that would make the lives of Sabine County youth 1000x better. Horseback riding, archery, shooting, piano, photography, even Tai Kwan Do- and so many more activities. He had businesses and banks onboard and, of course, his beloved Texas A&M was contributing as well. He had most of the logistics worked out and like so many times before, I was blown away by his skills of team-building, organization and productivity. The man could get a job done and done well - better than any I've ever known. We talked for nearly two hours and he was a bit late getting out the door for his weekend conference at College Station. We agreed to a Pineland Day tour after breakfast the following week and he was off.
On Tuesday, as I was sitting in the dentist chair, my phone rang and his deep voice drawled out, "Mrs. Johanna, this is a courtesy call. I left Aggie Land this morning and stopped to take a test because I had a little fever. And the dern thing was positive. I didn't feel bad until Saturday morning, but wanted you to be able to tell the breakfast crew that it was a possibility I had it Thursday."
Inconvenient. That was my initial thought. We had plans and I had gotten a brief glance at his schedule and knew he was all booked up. When were we going to be able to get together again? We chatted for a bit and I prayed for him and told him I'd check in in a couple of days.
Friday he emailed me all the details he had for the new 4 H plan. If you knew him, you knew he was a way above average and competent writer. But on this day he let me know I needed to write it. He didn't feel well and said the COVID packed a punch and he was going to try to rest.
On Monday, I sent him the story and he said it was accurate and we could print and distribute. It ran in the Aug. 4 edition.
I assumed he would get over it quickly, no big deal. And I was very wrong. When I learned he had been hospitalized, I text right away. "18th day of symptoms, 11th day in the hospital," he assured me he was getting better everyday. We talked a few more times before his condition worsened and then Mrs. Carolyn would respond instead.
As it became evident he was in the fight of his life, more than ever, I petitioned God for his physical, earthly healing daily, almost constantly. And to be 100% transparent, I'm struggling with His answer being no. Because I love this man. I have admired and looked up to him for 23 years, and I'm not ready to let him go and without a doubt, many of you feel the same. That's ok. God is big enough to handle all of our sorrow, anger and doubt. His grace is always sufficient.
It's Thursday, one month has passed since this photo was taken, and breakfast is being prepared, because that's all I know to do. Keep going. Support one another. Pray. Take care of Sabine County and the Pineland that he loved, in anyway we can. He served so many here for decades. We will honor him and remember.

Obituary, Downloaded from Staff Funeral Home
Ronald Earl Barlow, 61, of Pineland, Texas passed away Wednesday, August 25, 2021 at Woodland Heights Medical Center in Lufkin, Texas.
Ronald was born in Jasper, Texas on August 2, 1960 to Wendall Barlow and Doris Powell Barlow. He was a lifetime resident of Pineland, Texas, a place that he loved and devoted a major part of his life to the town and it's residents.
He was a graduate of West Sabine High School, where he later served as an agriculture teacher for five years, served as elementary principal for three years and as high school principal for two years. After graduating high school, he attended his beloved Texas A&M University where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural education in 1983. In 1992, he earned his Master's Degree in education from Stephen F. Austin State University.
In addition to serving at West Sabine ISD, he also was principal at Joaquin ISD and Ag Teacher for Dayton ISD and Latexo ISD. He was a member of numerous community committees and activities such as West Sabine School Board, Sabine County Historical Commission, Sabine County Livestock Show, Pineland Service Club, and Pineland Day Steering Committee, to name a few.
He was also awarded with many, many awards and recognition over the years for his service to his community. He ended his service to Sabine County serving as County Extension Agent where he helped many and was building on the 4H program for the young people in this area.
Ronald was also worked for many years in the Oil and Gas Industry area of construction.
On Ronald's personal side, he was a very laid back man that was a friend to many, not to mention a loving husband and father. He enjoyed organizing events, all things historical, learning new things, and writing tributes for those he knew best. He was a collector of sports memorabilia and things concerning Pineland, enough so that he could probably have filled a museum.
He was a big fan of his grandchildren and enjoyed taking them on adventures. And of course, he was a Die Hard Aggie.
Ronald is survived by his wife, Carolyn Barlow of Pineland; his mother, Doris Barlow; son, Matthew Joel Barlow and wife, Katheryn, of Fort Worth; stepsons, Nick Estes and wife, Ashley, of Martinsville, Michael Estes and wife, Molly, of San Augustine, and Wade Wheeless of Cushing; step daughter, Katie Holland and husband, Matthew, of Cushing; brothers, Michael Henry Barlow of Bronson and Randall Barlow of Sutton-on-Hill, England; sister, Pam Abdallh and husband, Yousef, of Silsbee; and eleven grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his father, Wendall Barlow.

Ronald Earl Barlow, 61, of Pineland, Texas passed away Wednesday, August 25, 2021 at Woodland Heights Medical Center in Lufkin, Texas.
Ronald was born in Jasper, Texas on August 2, 1960 to Wendall Barlow and Doris Powell Barlow. He was a lifetime resident of Pineland, Texas, a place that he loved and devoted a major part of his life to the town and it's residents.
He was a graduate of West Sabine High School, where he later served as an agriculture teacher for five years, served as elementary principal for three years and as high school principal for two years. After graduating high school, he attended his beloved Texas A&M University where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in agricultural education in 1983. In 1992, he earned his Master's Degree in education from Stephen F. Austin State University.
In addition to serving at West Sabine ISD, he also was principal at Joaquin ISD and Ag Teacher for Dayton ISD and Latexo ISD. He was a member of numerous community committees and activities such as West Sabine School Board, Sabine County Historical Commission, Sabine County Livestock Show, Pineland Service Club, and Pineland Day Steering Committee, to name a few.
He was also awarded with many, many awards and recognition over the years for his service to his community. He ended his service to Sabine County serving as County Extension Agent where he helped many and was building on the 4H program for the young people in this area.
Ronald was also worked for many years in the Oil and Gas Industry area of construction.
On Ronald's personal side, he was a very laid back man that was a friend to many, not to mention a loving husband and father. He enjoyed organizing events, all things historical, learning new things, and writing tributes for those he knew best. He was a collector of sports memorabilia and things concerning Pineland, enough so that he could probably have filled a museum.
He was a big fan of his grandchildren and enjoyed taking them on adventures. And of course, he was a Die Hard Aggie.
Ronald is survived by his wife, Carolyn Barlow of Pineland; his mother, Doris Barlow; son, Matthew Joel Barlow and wife, Katheryn, of Fort Worth; stepsons, Nick Estes and wife, Ashley, of Martinsville, Michael Estes and wife, Molly, of San Augustine, and Wade Wheeless of Cushing; step daughter, Katie Holland and husband, Matthew, of Cushing; brothers, Michael Henry Barlow of Bronson and Randall Barlow of Sutton-on-Hill, England; sister, Pam Abdallh and husband, Yousef, of Silsbee; and eleven grandchildren.

Obituary, copied from his FindAGrave memorial page
Wendall Joe Barlow, 77, of Pineland, died at 6:00 Thursday evening, October 24, 2013, at his home on the Charlie Forse Road, north of Pineland. He was born September 1, 1936 at home in the Slip-Up-and-Hitch Community (between the Plainview and Strickland Crossing Communities) in Sabine County, Texas to Adron Horace "Dick" Barlow (1907-1987) and Ina Mae Russell Barlow (1916-2001).
The family soon moved to a home northwest of Pineland, on the Bear Creek Farm that Wendall has continued farming throughout his lifetime. Wendall grew up on this farm, at his father's sawmill and garage, and working on used cars that his father bought and sold.
He attended all twelve grades at Pineland I.S.D. schools in Sabine County, graduating from Pineland High School in May, 1954, ranked 9th in a class of nine graduates. His favorite class was Mr. B.A. Reid's Agriculture classes and he supported and encouraged FFA and 4-H activities for the remainder of his life to benefit like-minded boys and girls.
From 1954 to 1958, he roughnecked on drilling rigs, both onshore and offshore, mostly in South Louisiana, and worked in all areas of drilling and production.
From 1958 to 1960, he did carpentry and concrete work on plants and dwellings.
From 1960 to 1963, he worked in Pineland as an automotive mechanic with his father, Dick Barlow, L.P. Knight and Ivy Jacks, in their garage on Highway 96.
From 1963 to 1967, he operated heavy equipment while building the Sam Rayburn Reservoir Dam, the Six Mile Bridge, the Ayish Bayou Bridge, and other highway projects in the area. He ran bulldozers, draglines, road maintainers, and scrapers and performed finish work on many of these jobs.
In 1967, he hired on at Magasco with United Gas Pipeline Company, and retired from this company in 1991. During that period, he worked as a pipeliner, compressor helper, construction inspector, Magasco Compressor Station Superintendent, and supervised construction and overhaul of various plants, facilities and pipelines all over the south. He loved the old Cooper compressor engines at Magasco, which operated from 1924 until the 1990s.
Following retirement from United Gas Pipeline (now Boardwalk/GulfSouth), he continued the same line of inspection work as an independent consultant. He worked all over Louisiana and Texas, sometimes working as many as 350 days in a year. After spending several years consulting in South Texas, he served as chief inspector for the construction of three new pipeline compressor stations for Boardwalk/Gulf South in Mobile, Alabama and Sherman, Texas, completing the last one in Sherman in 2009, at the age of 72.
In retirement, he continued running beef cattle on his farms around Pineland, owned and managed rental property in Pineland, continued his community service involvement and established the Sabine County Cowboy Church.
He was an uncommon man who lived to work and serve his God, family and community. He worked, almost unceasingly, from daylight to dark, on the job, at the farm, in the church and in the community, and could work circles around men half his age. He was a friend to all and a benefactor to anyone that truly needed help. He never met a stranger and earned friendship, trust and respect quickly. He loved children and children loved him.
He loved local history and everything about rural Deep East Texas. He had a memory for details, people, places and things that few could match, if any. He never missed a Pineland Day, a school reunion or a family reunion.
He was a man of his word and would go to whatever lengths were necessary to keep his word?and he admired the same in others. He despised cruelty, waste and laziness, and devoted every waking minute to doing his job, maintaining his farm, improving his cattle herd, compiling his collections, and finding ways to help his neighbors.
Hundreds of individuals and families in Sabine County have benefitted from his concern and assistance in times of need. He bailed the friendless from jail, made loans to those who could never repay, and found ways to give to widows and orphans through his labor and talents. He was a frugal man concerning his own needs and comfort, but would give the shirt off his back to a family member, friend or stranger in need.
He served on the boards of several organizations in Pineland and Sabine County.
His retirement, which was forced by his cancer, was spent in planning and providing for the establishment of the Sabine County Cowboy Church. His gifts of land, buildings, furnishings, equipment, labor and love made this mission possible.
On October 5, the Pineland Service Club recognized Wendall as the Citizen of the Year at Pineland Day 2013 in recognition of his many years of service to the community through Pineland Day, Pineland Clean Sweep, Business Startup Assistance, Church Establishment, FFA and 4-H activities, and other charitable deeds and philanthropy for the citizens of the Pineland and West Sabine community.
He wanted his philanthropy to be anonymous, and if it became public, he humbly diverted the praise to others, or shyly changed the subject. He asked for little in return?and what he did ask for was intended to make life better for the recipient.
Wendall is survived by his sons; Rev. Randall Barlow and his wife Pauline of Hull, England, Ronald Barlow of Pineland, and Michael Barlow and his wife Kerie of Stonewall, Louisiana, his daughter; Pam Abdallh and her husband Yousef of Silsbee, five grandchildren (Matt Barlow, Yasmine Abdallh, Ginger Barlow Wallace, Erica Barlow and Cash Barlow) and five great grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother; Lamar Barlow and wife Betty of Brookeland, and sisters; Lora Beth Barlow Wright and husband Carl of Houston and Mary Virginia Barlow Edgar and husband Wallace of Texarkana, Arkansas.
Visitation will be held from 10:00 AM until 1:00 PM, Saturday, October 26, 2013, at the Sabine County Cowboy Church in Pineland, with a meal being served at 11:30. Funeral services will closely follow at 1:00 PM, Saturday, October 26, 2013, at the Sabine County Cowboy Church in Pineland. Officiating will be his son Randall Barlow, his brother-in-law Wallace Edgar and J.P. Mills, pastor of the Sabine County Cowboy Church. Burial will follow in the Bethel Chapel Cemetery in Pineland. Pall bearers will be Benny Jacks, Jamie Powell, Tommy Mason, Billy Mack Dickerson, Matt Barlow, Cody McBride, Chip Lowrey and Jennifer Maxey. Conducting the graveside service will be Charlie Creech, pastor of First Baptist Church of Bronson. Services are under the direction of Starr Funeral Home, 510 Starr Street, Hemphill Texas 75948. The family requests that instead of flowers, please consider making a contribution to the Sabine County Cowboy Church's Arena Construction Fund, P.O. Box 867, Pineland, Texas 75968.

Ruth Marchetti indicates her last name was also shown as Bernhart. Marchetti further indicates that Katherine died between 1885 and 1890, in Kansas. It appears that is incorrect. Don Staton found the following census information from 1900, showing the widowed Kate Striffler, born Jan 1818 in France, living with her daughter, Emma Willis, in Atchison, Kansas.
May have instead been born in Canada to German-speaking parents? (Per 1900 and 1910 census responses for sons Peter Striffler and Frank Striffler)
