Notes for Henry ANTES
*** son of Frederick ANTES and Anna Catharine KINDER, Henry Antes was a pioneer settler of Pennsylvania. He was the son of Frederick and Ann Catharine Antes, and born in Europe in 1701. The earliest record found concerning the Antes family in this country is a deed dated 20th of February, 1723, for 150 acres of land in Philadelphia county, purchased by Frederick Antes, of Germantown, from Henry Van Bebber, described as part of a tract of 25,370 acres in Mahanitania, in the present township of Hanover. It is believed that Henry Antes was born in Friensheim, Bavaria. On the 2d of February, I726, after three regular notices given, Henry Antes and Christina Elizabeth, daughter of William Dewees, were married at Whitemarsh, by John Philip Boehm, pastor of the German Reformed Church, in Pennsylvania. The precise date at which Antes took up his residence in Frederick township is not known. On the 2d of February, 1730, lie is described as a resident of Hanover township, the name at that time sometimes applied to the territory afterwards erected into Frederick township, as well as the Frankford company tract. Previous to this he, with his father-in-law, William Dewees, had built a grist mill and a paper mill at Crefeld, Germantown. In 1730 he was naturalized. On the 2d day of September, 1735, Henry Antes, of Frederick township, millwright, bought of John Hagerman, of Lancaster County, weaver, one hundred and seventy five acres of land "near the branches of the Perkeawming," in Frederick township, paying therefor two hundred pounds, lawful money of the province; bounded by lands of William Frey and Henry Stadler, land of Andrew Frey and vacant lands. Upon this tract Mr. Antes resided during the remainder of his life, except when temporarily away. Upon this property, the same year, he built, in partnership with George Heebner, a grist-mill. In the spring of 1763, he became acquainted with Spangenberg, of the Moravian Church in America, who was sojourning with the Schwenkfelders in Skippack. Up to 1740 lie continued a member of the Falkner Swamp Church, in charge of Rev. Mr. Boehm. At this time a difference arose between pastor and parishioners resulting in alienation. In 1741, Antes became acquainted with Zinzendorf. In 1742, Antes assisted the Moravians in building the first large house in Bethlehem. The colony of Moravian immigrants who arrived in the Catharine, came to the house of Antes, July i9th, 1742, and lodged there that night. In 1744, Henry Antes presided at a Synod of Moravian Brethren held in what is now North Heidelberg township. In 1750, the Moravians introduced the wearing of the white surplice by the members at the celebration of the Eucharist. Antes disapproved of this and withdrew from their communion. He died in July, 1754, 1730 naturalized
