    Darrahs family

     

    The Darrahs of this county and other parts of the state and union are

    descended from a Scotch-Irish ancestor who settled at Deep Run. Thomas

    Darrah came from the north of Ireland about 1725 and settled in Horsham,

    now in Montgomery county. After living there a few years he sold his

    property and removed to Bedminster, where he patented about eight hundred

    acres of land. Who, and when he married we know not, but at his death in

    1750 he left his estate to his two eldest sons, the other sons and three

    daughters, viz: Robert, Thomas, Henry, William, James, Susannah, and two

    others names not known. The oldest son Robert married a Jacoby, whose

    descendants live in the lower part of the county, the second son, Thomas,

    had two sons Thomas and Mark, and several daughters, and their descendants

    numerous. Thomas married twice, his second wife being a daughter of Colonel

    Piper, of Bedminster and had seven children. The wfe of Charles Wigton, of

    Doylestown, is a daughter of Thomas Darrah the third. The daughters of Thomas Darrah the second married into the families of Phair, Denny, Ferguson, Walker and Bryan. Henry the third son of Thomas Darrah married Ann Jamison and removed to New Britain, now in the

    upper end of Warrington. Where Henry Weisel lives. He was a captain of militia during the Revolutionand served several tours of duty under General Lacey and others; was probably in the Amboy expedition, in 1776, and died in 1772?(mistake, could mean 1882) From cold contracted in service and was buried at Deep Run. The family have a tradition that General Washington several times stopped over night with Henry Darrah, and that on such

    occasions the children were sent to a neighbor's that he might not be disturbed by their noise. His children were James, William, John George, Ann and Margaret.

Note on Husband: Henry WEISEL

Note from H. Alan Weisel, State College, PA, May 2002

Henry Weisel (April 6, 1760 - May 26, 1830) is buried in the Tohickon Union

Cemetery with a Revolutionary War marker on his grave. This information was

obtained from a volume titled "Bucks County Tombstone Legends" in the Centre County Historical Library and Museum, Bellefonte, PA

Note on Wife: Eva SHELLENBERGER

No marriage record has been found for Henry Weisel + Eva..

 

The evidence Eva is a Shellenberger is:

1) The birthdate for Eve Weisel on her tombstone matches the birth date for Eva Schellenberger in Montgomery County. See birth fact.

 

2) Henry Shellenberger and Joseph Weisel (son of Henry and Eva) were acquainted and possibly related or friends.

Henry Weisel, second son of Michael, Jr., and Magdalena, born in Bedminster about 1765, married Eve Shellenberger, a grand- daughter of Johannes Shellenberger, who came from Germany in 1751 in the "Queen of Denmark" and settled in Hatfield township, Montgomery county, later purchasing large tracts of land in Hilltown, Bucks county, upon which his son Conrad, who married Eve Leidy, settled about 1775. Michael and Magdalena Weisel on June 28, 1790, conveyed to their son Henry Weisel, 198 acres of the Allen tract in Bedminster, and he was devised another portion of the homestead by his father's will in 1796. In addition to these he purchased a portion of the land devised to his brother George, and about twenty acres across the Swamp road in Hilltown, the site of the old Green Tree hotel, near Hagersville. In 1822 he conveyed sixty-five acres of the homestead to his son George, and died seized of most of the other tracts in 1831. Henry and Eve (Shellenberger) Weisel were the parents of six children: Susanna, born 1789, married Philip Fluck ; George, born March 28, 1790, married March 31, 1812, Catharine Fluck; Joseph, born July 10. 1793, purchased the homestead at his father's death; Henry, born January 29, 1796, married September 3, 1820, Elizabeth Seiple, and removed to Franconia, Montgomery county; Mary, born 1802, married Henry Eckel, of Bedminster; and Samuel, born August 1, 1804.
