Hans, a bishop, settled near the present Hernley Mennoite
Meetinghouse in 1727. (There is another Hans Lehman that
lived about four miles nortwest of this Hans, and his children
have similar names) Hans was born in the canton of
Schaffhausen, Switzerland, about the year 1702. Hans & Anna
had lived near Zweibucken at Eshterholf in the Palatinate region
of Germany prior to their emigration to America. They sailed on
the ship "James Goodwill" on September 27, 1727. Others
that traveled with them were: Hans Hege and wife (Hans sister
Maria Lehman);Hans sister, Maria Lehman; and Hans and Anna's
three children. Henry Lesher and his two sisters came along, they
were orphans. They all were Mennonites. Hans settled in the
now Rapho Twp. of Lancaster Co.,PA. He bought 197 acres nw of
Manheim known then as Stickelstown, between the present-day
Colebrook St. and Hernley Rd. The land was surveyed on Dec. 22,
1735 and patented to John Leman on February 20, 1743. Hans
served as a minister in the Hernley Mennonite Church and became
its first bishop. He is mentioned in its first deed. The ground
for the Hernley Meetinghouse and burial plots is one of the few
meetinghouses or cemeteries now owned by a Mennonite congregation
in Lancaster Co. which was deeded directly from the sons of
William Penn as proprietary governors of PA to any of the church
fathers. (First known as Rapho Mennonite Meetinghouse, then
Lehman, now Hernley). The deed cantained the names of Thomas
and Richard Penn. The first house also served as a schoolhouse
for the community. Hans had evidently built a gristmill on his
property and had constructed a dam and race to provide waterpower
for it. Hans will was written January 1, 1772. On the homestead
portion of the farm is a Lehman family cemetery where three
generations of Lehmans are buried. (Pennsylvania Mennonite

- Lehman.-Abram M. Lehman
was born near
Blosserville, Cumberland
Co., Pa., July 9, 1849;
died at his home near Oak
Grove, Franklin Co., Pa..
on May 18, 1907; aged 57
Y., 10 M., 9 D., of
cancer of the stomach,
from which he suffered
greatly for ten weeks. He
bore his afflictions very
patiently and died
leaving a bright hope of
eternal glory, often
saying that he felt like
Paul, when he said,
"I am in a strait
betwixt two, having a
desire to depart and be
with Christ, which is far
better." He leaves
to mourn his departure a
sorrowing wife, three
daughters and one sister;
but we need not mourn as
those who have no hope,
but we can rejoice
through our tears that
his sufferings are over
and he is safe with
Jesus. Funeral was held
on the 21st by Pre. Henry
Bricker at the house, and
Pre. Abram Burkholder and
Pre. Geo. Ernst at the
Strasburg M. H., where
the house was filled to
overflowing with
relatives and friends who
came to pay their last
tribute of respect to the
dear departed one. The
text, which was chosen by
himself, was 2 Cor. 4:17,
18 and 5:1. May this
dispensation of God's
providence be the means
of drawing us closer to
Christ. HIS DAUGHTER. (Her.

loss is, we believe, his
eternal gain. Funeral

Samuel Lehman near upper
Strasburg, Franklin county, Pa,
departed this life on Sunday
evening, Oct. 21st, aged 85
years, 2 months and 9 days. The
subject of this notice was a man
of a peculiarly strong and
healthy constitution, having
known little of sickness, except
such as rheumatism etc., the
results of exposure, until the
last six weeks of his allotted
time, he suffered severely from
pulmonary and asthmatic
affections, but bore his
afflictions with much patience;
but the time came when human aid
and all that loving hearts and
hands could do, could no longer
keep him and a merciful God
permitted the soul to leave its
earthly tabernacle, for a better Home
not made with hands, where
sufferings and sorrows are left
behind, and where our tears shall
be wiped away. Of this hope our
departed father left us a bright
evidence, having spent his latter
days in much prayer and
supplication, expressing nothing
of condemnation. Truly,
"Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord. Father Lehman,
since a young man was a member of
the Mennonite Brotherhood in
Christ, and a regular attendant
at the Church near his home: he
having been born, lived and died
on the same farm. His parents
also lived and died there. His
long intercourse with his
fellow-men in general, was ever
pleasant and unobtrusive, being
often sought after to fill places
of responsibility. Ever generous
to the needy, his removal will be
felt by many. Like the uplifting
of the oak, with its numerous and
long roots, intermingled with
many lesser ones which stood
around it which will be more or
less affected by its removal. The
The interment took place on the
23rd , when impressive remarks
were made from 2 Tim.4:6, 7 by
Pre. Peter Wadle and Hunsecker in
German, and Isaac Sollenberger in
English. Thus has our father and
grandfather gone before us. Which
among us will be the first to
follow him? (Herald of Truth,
Nov. 1883)

failing, and for several months
before his death he had been
confined to his room. His
sufferings, at times, were great,
but were endured with wonderful
patience. He spoke with calmness
of his approaching death, for he
had learned to know Him in whom
he had put his trust. His

Susanna was the mother of seven children. Susanna
is buried in the Lehman family Cemetery near
Manheim,PA now oblitereated. Note: It is evident
that Daniel was the first resident minister to
serve the congregation of Mennonites in
Letterekenny and Greene Twps. Daniel lived on the
southern portion of his father's plantation with
the gristmill. Daniel sold his farm in Rapho
Twp., Lancaster Co., PA on 4/13/1786 to his
older brother Jacob. He bought a farm in Greene
Twp., Franklin Co., PA on 5/7/1786. It is
likely the family moved to Franklin Co. in 1786.
They settled on what was known as Penn Hall Farm
just north of Chambersburg. Daniel built a
fulling mill and fulled home-made cloth for
settlers in addition to farming. (Photos of his
house) Daniel Lehman had been ordained as a
Mennonite minister at the Hernley-Lehman Church
(1766) in Lancaster Co. about 1765. By the time
he arrived at Charmbersburg, there were enough
Mennonites to form a congregation. He donated
land for the Chambersburg Mennonite Meetinghouse (July
17, 1804 Daniel Lehman deeded for one dollar to
Michael Wenger and Jacob Stauffer, the first
trustees, a parcel of ground for the people of
the Mennonite faith. Deed Book 6,p281,Franklin
Co. Courthouse,Chambersburg,PA) Soon a log
church was erected on the east end of his farm.
September 4, 1804, he preached the first sermon
and announced another meeting in four weeks. He
died before it happened. Before moving to
Franklin Co., he was ordained bishop to have
oversight of the Mennonites in Franklin Co., PA
and Washington CO., MD. (Pennsylvania
Mennonite Heritage, vIII,#4,Oct. 1980) But
at that time Henry Funk who died in 1787, was
still serving as bishop in Washington Co., MD. Source:

1925; aged 88 y. 5 m. 29d. He
came to Elkhart Co., IN in
1857 at the age of twenty-one
years. He was united in marriage
with Lydia Ann Good on Nov

him in death five years ago.
This union was blessed with
seventeen children, of whom
thirteen are still living,
twelve of whom were present
at the funeral. He leaves
also fifty-eight
grandchildren and eleven
great-grandchildren. Brother
and Sister Lehman both united
with the Mennonite Church in
1863. Brother Lehman was
ordained to the ministry many
years ago, and later also to
the bishop's office, and
rendered good service. But
his work was beset with many
trials and difficulties, and
now that he has gone to his
reward, we trust he has found
and obtained the reward of
the righteous in those
heavenly mansions which Jesus
has prepared for all His true
followers, where there is joy
and fullness of joy for
everymore. Peace to his
ashes. He was buried at
the Yellow Creek Mennonite
Cemetery on April 4,
1925. Funeral services were
conducted by J. S. Hartzler
and John F. Funk. His funeral
was largely attended. (Gospel

with her husband united with

and she lived a consistent
Christian life, always
manifesting a strong, clear
faith to the end of her life.
For 15 years she suffered
much pain, most of the time
being unable to walk, but was
always patient, and when told
that death was imminent,
said: "It is all right;
I am ready any time."
She passed away quietly and
without pain. This was the
first death in the entire
Lehman family in a period of
25 years. Funeral services
