SEVENTH GENERATION

112. Peter ALLUMBAUGH* was born about 1740 in BADEN-BADEN, GERMANY (HOLLAND). He appeared on the census in 1800 in MADISON CO., KY. He appeared on the census in 1810 in MADISON CO., KY. He died on 12 Sep 1833 in MADISON CO., KY. Peter Allumbaugh (Olmbagh/Almbach) the 1st with his parents and 14 siblings took sail from the shores of Holland. During their voyage to America, cholera broke out on the ship and Peter's parents and siblings died. Peter landed in America alone at the age of 14. He enlisted in the War of the Revolution with Great Britain and served until the close of the war. He then married and settled in Virginia and had 11 children. The above is from the Allumbaugh Family History. Further research indicates that the Allumbach name is probably German rather than Dutch. (Allumbaugh Family History. Written by Donna Jean Allumbaugh, Box 176, Tonasket, WA 98855. 1981. pg 435.) He was married to Catherine GREEN* in 1769/70 in GREENBRIAR, KY.

child i. John ALLUMBAUGH was born about 1770 in VA. He resided SULLIVAN, IN in 1833. He died on 3 Oct 1860 in SULLIVAN CO., IN. He was buried in HOUCK CEMETARY, SULLIVAN, SULLIVAN, IN. John Allumbaugh could not read or write so he "x"ed his name for his signature. His headstone in the Houck Cemetery in Sullivan, IN is in good condition. John had 24 children. They are not included on a family history sheet as the information is incomplete. Their names ane their lineage can be found on page 14 of the Allumbaugh Family History Book. Names: Henry 1800-1807; Willis 12 Nov 1807; William 9 Dec 1808; Garrett 1809; unknown son; unknown son; Starling 13 Sep 1813; unknown daughter; unknown son; Peter 1817; James 1818; Thomas 15 Mar 1820; Joe?; unknown daughter; unknown son; unknown son; unknown son; unknown son; Jane; Sarah 28 Sep 1828; John 1831; Samuel 14 Feb 1832; Escy 1832; Mary. John's first wife, Mary, died 16 Aug 1827, so I am assuming at least the last 6 children were the products of John's marriage to Polly.
