 The information on Freiderich, who may be our Frederick Iseminger, comes from a notation in a book. My notes on that are below:
-don't know how he got here or his ancestry at this time. There were several Eisenmi(e)ngers that arrived in Philadelphia
in 1750s from Palatine region of Germany but do not know of any direct connection or relation to Frederick. Information from
a Michael Iseminger has located a Freidrich Eisenmenger (German spelling of Iseminger) who immigrated in 1751, but ship name
or the port of entry is not known. The information came from Broderbund CD #354. The book the information came from lists
the place of origin as Eppingen/Brett, Germany. A translation of the abbreviations in the book and other information by Sara
Abbott (abbot@magicnet.net) indicate that Freidrich was a "citizen," another that the document was an emmigration
permit, and another that there was a 10% tax rate accessed for the permit.

HISTORY OF CRAWFORD COUNTY
Jacob Iseminger, father of Dr. Iseminger, was farmer by occupation Ugh the greater part of his life, although
in early manhood he and his jjer operated a mill in Monroe county, Indiana. He lived a busy and use-gjfe and died on the
old home farm in 1879, lacking but three months of eighty years of age. He was twice married, his first union being with
a Rogers, by whom he had three children, Martha, Elizabeth and George bington. After the death of his first wife, Jacob
Iseminger wedded Eliza-Graybeal, who passed away in 1874, when more than seventy years of Both were earnest and consistent
members of the Christian church. family numbered seven children, as follows .-"John, deceased; William, of "
^review; Hiram, who lost his life while serving"ln"the Civil war; Holbert |now living in Tappen, North Dakota; Peter
R., who lives on the old home in Laporte county, Indiana; Margaret Jane, the wife of John Bone, of ysville, Kansas; and Rachel,
deceased.
Note - a fragmenting story passed down to me to the effect that the relationship between Jacob and Nelson Holmes was decidedly
strained due to inter-marriage arrangement that jacob did not approve of. This can probably be traced to the 2nd marriage
of John Graybeal to Elizabeth Holmes., Nelson Holmes evidently urged or wanted the marriage and Jacob being Elizabeths granddaughter
didnt want it.
