In the "Germany, Births and Baptisms, 1558-1898" at familyserach.org is what we think is Joseph's christening record: Johannes Lindenschmied, christened May 26, 1751 at Evangelisch (Reformed) Church, Hassloch, Pfalz, Bavaria, Germany. According to his gr-grandson, EWJ Lindesmith, his parents were Daniel Lindesmith & Elizabeth Bernard, but it appears that Daniel was actually his grandfather.

In the "Germany, Births and Baptisms, 1558-1898" at familyserach.org is what we think is Joseph's christening record: Johannes Lindenschmied, christened May 26, 1751 at Evangelisch (Reformed) Church, Hassloch, Pfalz, Bavaria, Germany. According to his gr-grandson, EWJ Lindesmith, his parents were Daniel Lindesmith & Elizabeth Bernard, but it appears that Daniel was actually his grandfather. Grandfather Daniel came to America in 1748 (a year after his father died) with his brother Ludwig on the ship Edinburgh, landing in Philadelphia. He brought with him his son, Freidrich, and his second wife (their 2 sons, George and Jacob were born in America and were about the same age as their nephew, Joseph). In 1769, Joseph also came to America, landing in Maryland, but soon making his way to Pennsylvania to join his relatives. It's likely that his grandfather took him in as a son, and this is why EWJ called Daniel's sons, Jacob & George, brothers of Joseph, when they were his uncles. Joseph's father Fredrich, along with Joseph's only brother Philipp Peter emigrated to Serbia in 1784-85, where they died. Joseph learned the trade of carpenter (joiner). In 1772 he went to Guilford (Gilford) township, Franklin County, PA where he met and married Anna Nancy Bauman, May 5, 1772. Joseph taught himself to speak, read and write English. Sept 9, 1774 Joseph, Nancy & baby Daniel moved to near Berlin, Pa. in Bedford (then Somerset) County. Joseph served in the Revolutionary War for seven years, where he was a bugler, a fifer, and bore arms. He also served as Washington's barber, shaving him several times. He was at Yorktown when Cornwallis surrendered to Washington. Nancy worked the farm while he was gone. He was living in the area of the Whiskey Rebellion of 1794, but I'm not sure what, if any, his part in it was. He lived in Bedford/Somerset County for 33 years. In 1807, when he was 56, he and all of his children followed his oldest son, Daniel to Columbiana County, Ohio. Died aged 64-66 years. (His death date of June 10, 1817 is from the DAR roster, however his will was dated July, 1814, and his probate was March, 1815. His pension records says his death was 1815.) Tombstone inscription: Joseph died 1817, age 66 years. "Great Grandfather. He was a soldier of the Revolution, Bugler and Fifer, Served during the entire war and was present at the surrender of Cornwallis." Great-Grandfather of E.W.J. Lindesmith. (on same stone): Nancy Bauman, died Oct 1836, age 82 years John, grand-uncle, died June 1830, age 49. He was a soldier and fifer in the War of 1812 Nancy Ford, aunt, born April 11, 1811 Daniel, uncle, died July 1841, age 19 E.W.J., Chaplain USA for the love of my Father Jacob Weimer, born Mar 18, 1801, died Sept 5, 1834 *Elizabeth Weimer, grandmother, died May 15, 1801, age 22.
