===Research Notes===* Hess family log home, Warwick Township. 1994 Warwick Township, Lancaster County, Pa. Physical Description: The Hess farmstead was first surveyed in 1730 as a 200-acre tract for Johannes Hess' grandfather, Hans Hess (ca. 1683-1733). This Hess patriarch immigrated to Pennsylvania in 1717 with his wife Magdalena (ca. 1680s-1767) and their children. The family emigrated from Germany or Switzerland. Hans and Magdalena are the first Hess immigrants known to arrive in America. Hans and Magdalena's oldest son Jacob Hess (c. 1706-1741) built the first house on this tract, circa 1730s, with wife Veronica. This Hess family received title to the farm from the William Penn family in 1735. The present log farmhouse was built ca. 1744 for Jacob's widow Veronica and their children. Their oldest son Johannes (1730-1778) was the next owner, with wife Susanna Landis Hess. In 1784 their eldest son Christian Hess (1757-1816) received this farmstead. Six years later, in 1790, Christian deeded this part of the farm to his brother, Mennonite Preacher John Hess (1768-1830), and wife Esther Hershey Hess. The next farmstead owners were John and Esther Hess' youngest son Henry Hess, and wife Catherine Huber Hess. Henry added the second storey to the log home in 1814 in preparation for his marriage to Catherine. In turn, their youngest son became the next owner, Mennonite preacher Jonas Hess, with wife Annie Franck Hess, followed by their son Henry F. Hess and wife Anna C. Shenk. The log home is located at 27 Lititz Run Road in Warwick Township. META CREA 2021-04-27 01:59:40.000 CLON TID 40325105. PID 19479499145.

* John and Susanna lived and are buried on in the Old Hess Family Graveyard. John built the stone house in 1778 (it was under construction at the time of his death) but spent his last years in the log house. John's large inventory of Mar 5, 1778 included window glass, stone hammer and shoemaker tools. He and his eldest son, Christian (generation 4), paid a militia fine for not serving in the Revolutionary War. In 1775 John owned the bulk of the 200 original tract since he bought his younger bother's land when he (Christian) moved to Virginia. Susanna signed her name only with an X mark on legal papers.<br><br>It is said that John built a hemp mill about 1768 although already in 1758 John obtained the right to dam and utilize water from Carter's Run on land of George Klein, suggesting an earlier date.<br><br>Numerous records about John exist, including what is reported in the Will and estate settlement of his Uncle Christian Hess who died about 1794. In this Settlement record, Deed Records Lancaster Co., Pa. BK. "I", Vol. 3, Pgs. 30-31, nine children sign with their husbands for the share of Christian's estate bequested them as descendants of John. In addition, there are records of John's estate, orphans court, deeds, an inventory, etc.
