Brief History: The Innes clan dates back to 1160 AD when King Malcolm IV confirmed the lands of Innes on Berowald from Flanders. The lands were located on the outskirts of Elgin in North-East Scotland. They stretched for over six miles along the south shore of the Moray firth, between the Spey and Lossie rivers. The name comes from the Gaelic, Innis, which means meadow, greens or island, all descriptive of this area. The Inneses grew to be one of the most powerful families in the province of Moray, dominating the parishes of Urquhart, Lhanbryde, and the surrounding district. Innes House, which is still occupied, was built between 1640 and 1653 on the Barony of Innes by Sir Robert Innes, 20th chief of Clan Innes. The oldest part of the house dates to the 15th century when it appears on early maps as "Innes Castle". Sir James Innes, 22nd chief, married Lady Margaret Ker in 1666; and as a result their great grandson, Sir James Innes, inherited the Dukedom of Roxburghe in 1805 when the Ker family line died out. Today, Sir Guy David Innes-Ker, 10th Duke of Roxburghe, is the 30th Baron of Innes and the direct descendant of Berowald from Flanders. He resides at Floors Castle near Kelso, Scotland. The Inneses played their full part in the tumultuous history of Scotland. It was John Innes, Bishop of Moray, who rebuilt much of Elgin Cathedral in 1407-1414 after it was sacked and burned by the Wolf of Badenoch. Another Innes, the Laird of Innermarkie, was beheaded for his part in the murder of the Earl of Moray. The Inneses raised several regiments for service during the Covenanting and Civil wars of the 17th century. In this century, Sir Malcolm Innes, K.C.V.O., W.S. was Lord Lyon King of Arms from 1981, until his retirement in 2001. His father, Sir Thomas Innes of Learney, held the title before him. |

Information on Cyriacus Fleischmann Cyriacus FLEISCHMANN was born about 1660 in Klings, , , Germany. He died after 1748 in , Spotsylvania Co., Virginia. Cyriacus married Anna Barbara SCHOENE on 5 Mar 1701 in Neuenburg, , Germany. NOTE: Germanna Record No. Six, p.25. Name is also "Ziriakus." 1717 Colonist, sued by Col. Spotswood in 1724 and granted 390 acres in the Robinson River section June 24, 1726 (Spotsylvania Grants, Book 12, p.474). He and son Peter (who was adult when he also came in 1717) were jointly granted 400 acres in the same section Sept. 28, 1728 (Book 13, p.477). He last appears when he deeded 120 acres to Henry Huffman in 1748. This relates to the 1717 colonists: [The three hundred and ninetieth note in a series on the Germanna Colonies In the last note, recognition was taken of B. C. Holtzclaw's error in saying the Second Colony came with Capt. Scott. In the colonial records there is no captain named Scott but there was a ship named the Scott. This ship was engaged in the Virginia tobacco trade where tobacco was brought back from Virginia and trade goods and passengers were taken to Virginia. Custom officials were caught once for taking bribes from the captain of the Scott for allowing tobacco to pass through customs without the payment of the mandated tariffs. (The custom officials lost their jobs because of this.) The record is important to us because it establishes two facts. First, it names the captain who was Andrew Tarbett. Second, it tells a lot about the character of Tarbett whose morality put economics above principles. Knowing the name of the captain of the Scott, another search was made of the Virginia colonial records. One other record was found in which Tarbett appears. In the spring of 1717 he lost a ship to pirates off the Virginia coast (the pirates sank the ship). Tarbett had to give a disposition to the Governor of Virginia, Alexander Spotswood which has been preserved. The important point here is that Tarbett was speaking to Spotswood early in 1717. At this time, not long after the land scouting junket known as the "Ride of the Knights of the Golden Horseshoe," Spotswood was embarked on a western land development program on the frontier. (These lands went past the present Culpeper courthouse.) What was needed was a group of settlers who could be placed simultaneously on the land. Spotswood let Tarbett know of his interest in Germans, a whole shipload of them if possible. Late that summer or in the early fall, Tarbett was back in London with a new ship (the Scott) when a group of Germans arrived in London seeking transportation to Pennsylvania. Tarbett promised them he would take them but he knew even then that his destination would be Virginia. Tarbett was taken to debtors' prison, perhaps because of losing a ship and cargo to pirates, but he negotiated his release and the voyage commenced. The Germans were very surprised when the land they saw was Virginia and not Pennsylvania. Who was to blame? Mostly, Tarbett who was of a weak character. Spotswood had placed temptation in his path and Tarbett couldn't resist. [The story is told in more detail with copies of the records in the September 1997 issue of Beyond Germanna, published by the below, who wrote the above.] John Blankenbaker Beyond Germanna PO Box 120 Chadds Ford, PA 19317 http://www.wp.com/germanna/ http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~george/germhist.html] "There is no doubt that Cyriacus Fleshman was married at least a second time after Anna Barbara to Margaret. I doubt that there were any children of this marriage. My reasons go to the distribution of his property that Cyriacus made before his proposed trip to Germany. Not wishing to leave his estate hanging in case he should die on the trip, he disposed of all of his property before hand. I do not believe that anything in the disposition of this property suggests there was a child(ren) by Margaret. Though he made his preparations and had official permission to make the trip, I do not know of any proof that he made the trip. And if he did make the trip (which he obviously wanted to do), there is no record of whether he returned. Thus, any statements about where he died are guessing and lack proof. John Blankenbaker (john@@germanna.com)" "The eight hundred and thirteenth note in a series on the Germanna Colonies I have written about the emigration of the First Germanna Colony (of about forty-odd people) and of the Second Colony (of about seventy-odd people). Both of these colonies, being early emigrants from Germany, had to find a way to London where they were to find a way of going on to their destination. Each Colonies had a major disaster in London. The First Colony had been expecting Christoph von Graffenried to meet them and to have the tickets for the balance of the journey. On the contrary, Graffenried was not there and, when he did come in, he was broke. Furthermore, his initial help for the Germans was to advise them to go home to Siegen. Imagine the looks of shock on their faces when they heard this. The Second Colony signed on with Capt. Tarbett, master of the ship Scott. Barely had they agreed with him for a trip to Pennsylvania, then he was thrown into jail, probably debtors' prison. This put them into a limbo. Perhaps they had already paid him some advance money. Certainly they were left wondering what was going to happen next. And the time schedule became very uncertain. Apparently each group survived its individual woes and remained a group with a common purpose. How did they do this? Surely there were many different opinions about what should be done. I suspect that one individual came to be accepted as the spokesperson or leader for the group. While not everyone might have agreed fully with this person, they accepted the decisions of this person. In the First Colony, I would nominate Jacob Holtzclaw as the natural leader. We have seen on more than occasion that he seemed to be a leader. He kept the records when the group worked on developing the mines for Spotswood. He was one of the trustees for the land purchase at Germantown. In recent notes we have seen that he led the 1734 emigration from the Virginian side. The individual that the Moravian missionaries called on during their visits to Germantown was Holtzclaw. The one other individual whom the group might have listened to was Rev. Häger but he probably declined an active role due to his age and lent his support to Holtzclaw. In the Second Colony, if I had to name one male individual of the group, it would be Cyriacus Fleshman. He was married to Anna Barbara who was the head by blood of the largest sub-contingent in the Colony. Later in Virginia, Fleshman signed petitions to the government. (I have certainly wondered about the role of Anna Barbara herself due to her unique position.) In both groups, despite severe troubles, they seem to have held together as acceptance of a leadership role by one member provided the focal point and concentration that was needed. The members rallied around the leader's decisions and supported him. John Blankenbaker (john@@germanna.com)" The eight hundred and thirtieth note in a series on the Germanna Colonies Another family, or perhaps more exactly a person, who had moved within Germany prior to the emigration to America was Cyriacus Fleischmann. The records at the church imply that he was from Klings, Fischberg, Eisenach, Henneberg, Saxony. Some of these names are thrown in just to help located the area. Before the modern reunification of Germany, this was just over the border in East Germany. Also no research has been done in the churches there, largely because no microfilming was permitted. John Blankenbaker Anna Barbara SCHOENE [Parents] was born in Sep 1664 in Neuenburg, Kraichtal, Baden and was christened on 29 Sep 1664. She married Cyriacus FLEISCHMANN on 5 Mar 1701 in Neuenburg, , Germany.

credit to kicantwell Ziriakus Fleshman came to VA with the 1717 colonists, with his wife Margaret, son Peter, daughter Mary Catherine, and possible daughter Sarah. In various records Ziriakus is spelled Cyrus, Cyriacus, Giriacus, Zeriachus, Zerechias, Gyracus, as well as other variations. The German Colony of 1717 consisted of twenty German Lutheran families from the Palatinate, Hesse, Alsace, and neighboring areas of Germany who secured passage on a boat to America. The boat was delayed in England for several weeks when the captain was thrown in jail for debt in London. The journey continued when the captain was finally released but supplies ran low during the long crossing and many of the passengers died. Their original plans had been to land in PA but they were driven ashore in VA by storms. Due to the long delay in England the passengers were unable to pay the captain for their voyage and in return for Gov. Spotswood's payment of their passage they became his indentured servants at Germanna where the colony of 1714 was established. They gained their freedom after serving eight years for Gov. Spotswood and re-established themselves on the Robinson River in Orange County in 1725. This region became Culpeper County in 1748 and in 1792 became Madison County. Here they received a large patents of land. In 1725 Ziriakus Fleshman returned to Germany along with Michael Cook to bring a minister for these "High Germans", but the effort was unsuccessful. In 1733 Rev. John Caspar Stoever became their regular pastor and in 1740 the Hebron Lutheran Church was built. (Story taken from "Shuck, Fleshman, Sydenstricker Familes" by Larry G.

It shows Dußlingen as it appeared in the year 1683, when Johannes Breÿhel was only about 4 years old. - Dußlingen, Germany is presumed to be the ancestral home of the Briles/Broyles/Breyel/Breÿhel family. "It is located on the Steinlach River about 5 miles south of the city of Tübingen in Baden-Württemberg.", Johannes left the town of Dußlingen about 1700, and went to the town of Ötisheim, Germany Stephen Broyles, Memorial Foundation of the Germanna Colonies in Virginia. |
