Name: Frederick SHRIDER 1 Sex: M Birth: 26 JUN 1778 in At sea or in Pennsyvania Death: 24 APR 1809 in Reading,Perry Co., Oh Burial: Reading, Perry Co., OH Occupation: Farmer Reference Number: 77 Note: Fredrick was born almost 9 months after the death of his father. One family tradition thought he was born at sea. One of two things could have happened; the wife of Frederick came over after Frederick and the child was born in route, or the child was actually born in PA. At either rate, Frederick never saw his son. Young Frederick was reared in the Keystone State. He married and four of the six children were born there. A 1800 census for CocalicoTwp. (roll 39) lists a "Frederick Schreider" household consisting of one maleunder age 10 (Jacob); one male between 26 and 45 years (perhaps a mistake inFrederick's age), one female between 16 and 26 years(Christina), and one female over 45 years of age (perhaps Frederick's mother). Frederick paid taxes inCocalico Twp. between the years of 1800 and 1805. He was listed as an "inmate"( which is a person who is a"renter") No occupation was indicated. He came to Perry Co., Ohio in 1809, from Lancaster County, Pa. between Aug 16 1804 andthe end of 1805 (based on the date of birth of John fourth child of Frederickand Christina. He entered land from the Government near Somerset, Perry Co., Ohio. According to records, Frederick held land with "John Dopler" (should be"Dupler"). Frederick helped to establish the New Reading, Ohio, Lutheran Church in 1805. Church meeting started typically in members homes. Later, After the death of Frederick) a two story log structure was build. Next the congregation built a brick structure. Today the enterance is the only thing that remainsfrom the building. Frederick was the first person buried in the New Reading cemetery near the Church. New Reading was established as Obermeyersettler - translated as Overmeyertown in 1804. His son, Peter was only 9 months old when Frederick died. The early death of Frederick caused the family to have difficulties. The Chillicothe Land Office put the land up for sale due to lack of payment. It was purchased by Frederick Dupler. He died in 1814 and his brother Phillip, acting executor, sold the land to Mathias Sahn. [BO:Notes from Paul Shrider:BO]: [IT:In "Pioneer Ohio Newspapers 1802-1818" by Karen Mauer Green and published by The Frontier Press in 1988 there is mention that the Scioto Gazette Vol XI, Wednesday, 9 January 1811, No 525 listed a Frederick Shreider ashaving land for sale according to Jesse Spencer, Register of the Land Officeat Chillicothe. According to John J. Shrider, Frederick entered 160 acres of land in Hopewell Twp, Perry Co., Ohio. He cited the platt book for Congress Lands that is at the Ross Co. Historical Society, Chilicothe, Ohio. On Feb 11, 1811, a Frederick Dupler (Doplar) owned the property which was the south-east quarter section of Range 16, township 16, section 5. He settled near New Reading, which was platted in 1805. New Reading was originally called Obermeyersettle. - Perry County Herlines, Vol 4, No.2, page 16.
