Under the Militia Loan of 1 Apr 1784-85, a Certificate of Public Debt, Number 18683 (later cancelled) in the amount of one pound, fifteen shillings was issued on 8 Jun 1791 in the name of Jacob Zartman for a tour of active duty in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, Militia, Simon Herrold Ensign, commanded the detachment.
Hans Jacob Zartman, son of Alexander Zartman and Anna Catharina Unk, born in Ittlingen, Baden before 22 Sep 1722 when he was baptised, was brought by his parents to America in 1728 on Ship Albany. He spent his childhood on his parents' farm in Warwick Tp, Lancaster, Co, PA and attended the Emanuel Lutheran Church in Brickersville, PA. On 14 Aug 1744 Hans Jacob Zartman married Anna Margaretha Riehm/Ream in Warwick Twp. with Rev. John C Stoever performing the ceremony. This union produced 4 sons and 4 daughters. Jacob lived for 45 years in Lancaster Co, PA and then moved in 1768 with his wife and children to Northumberland Co, PA where in Mahonay Township, he purchased 122 acres of farm land. It is presumed that he died on this farm around 1793 and is buried there. No death date is known for Anna Margaretha, but it is presumed she is buried by his side.

Is thought to be buried in the cemetery near the "Zartman Church" on the original Zartman homestead in Dornsife, Warwick Township, Lancaster County, PA. Son Henry is also buried here. Both served in the Revolution. "The grave of neither was marked in any way. To us, this was unpatriotic, ungrateful, unbearable. Our appeal to the War Department in Washington brought us two properly engraved marble monuments which we erected, and at a public service unveiled and dedicated Sunday, 9/23/1934. The impressive service was attended by 150 people. He lived 45 years in Lancaster County. Moved in 1768 to Jackson Township, (Brickerville), Northumberland County, PA., purchasing a farm of 122 acres at the base of Line Mountain. (cost: eleven pounds or about $53.

PART II Chapter I Jacob Zartman and Family JACOB, son of Alexander and Ann Catharina Zartman, was born in Germany in 1723 and brought by his parents to America in the year 1728. He lived with his parents on a farmin Warwick Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa., with his parents from 1730, and later with his only brother, Alexander, Junior. In his youth Jacob was doubtless an attendant at the services in the Emanuel Lutheran Church, Brickerville, Pa., He wasnurtured and reared under Christian precept and example by devout parents. At the age of twenty-one he had courted and chosen his life partner: so on 8/14/1744 he married Anna Margaretha Riehm (Ream). This marriage was solemnized by Rev. John Casper Stoever, a notable Lutheran minister of that period. The marriagetook place in Warwick Twp. This is news never before published. We discovered the record of it in the Historical Society of Lancaster Co., Pa., at 307 N. Duke Street. This was the initial marriage of a Zartman in North America. What thrills and pangs of joy come from genealogical researchas in hunting, finding, and bagging game! If Jacob was twenty-one at marriage, then he was born in 1723;and it also proves he was born in Germany, and brought by his parents to America at the age of five years. To Jacob and Anna Margaretha were born four sons and four daughters. We found the birth records of only three of their children.In the baptismal register of Emanuel Lutheran Church it says Anna Margaretha was b. 10/28/1755, and that Eva was b. 10/1/1758. Then in Zion Cemetery, Thorn Twp., Perry Co., Ohio, on Peter's tombstone it reads that he was b. 3/15/1760. From Jacob's last will and testament we know that their son, Henry, was their "first born." The parents m. in August 1744; hence Henry may have been b. in 1745. The eight children of Jacob and Anna Margaretha may have been born in the following order: (1) Henry in 1745; (2) Martin in 1747; (3) Jacob,
p.12 Jr., in 1749; (4) Susanna in 1751; (5) Anna Margaretha, Jr., 10/28/1755; (6) Eva, 10/1/1758; (7) Peter 3/15/1760; (8) Anna Maria, 1762. As to when the other children were born we can only conjecture. I have put Martin second in the list of births because his father, hi his will, mentions Martin first four times. We would like, especially, to know the date of the birth of Jacob, Jr., who wrote hisname high on the scroll of fame by devotion to his church and by heroic service for his country in the War of the Revolution. The eight children of Jacob Zartman, Senior, grew up on the Zartman homestead in Warwick Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa., and all but Eva are mentioned in their father's will written in 1793, and published herewith.
