From http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~lzrslong/b2287.htm :
Mathew Howard received a Grant/Patent for Land in 163 8 in Lower Norfolk Co., VA. In 1638 was granted 150 acres for the transport o f himself, his wife, and 2 other persons to Virginia. He received a Grant/Pat ent for Land on 3 Jul 1650 in Anne Arundel Co., MD. A tract of 650 acres called "Howard" was surveyed 3d July 1650 for Matthew Howard on the south side of Severn River. In the 1707 rent rolls, the comment was made that it could not found that this land was ever patented, but ye Survey Supposed to be altered by Howard into others. He died before 1659. Matthew Howard was in Virginia 8 February 1637/38 when he was located in the Upper County of New Norfolk on the western branch of the Elizabeth River. This information comes from a land patent granted to Robert Taylor, which describes the land grant boundaries a s on the West Branch of the Elizabeth River bounded on the west with Matthew Howard running nearly into the woods and Sly. It is known that Matthew and An ne had children by 1640, for in the court records there is apparently a sland er case where Simon Peeter age 26 stated that Edy Hanking said that Mathew Howard's wife went walking with Wdward Lloide and left children crying and her husband had to quit his work and quiet the children. Mathew Howard was the executor of the will of Richard Hall in 1648. This will left Anne Howard a cow calf and a barrow shote, Elizabeth Howard tow cows and their increases, to Mathew Howard the younger a sow shote, to Cornelius Howard a sow and y hat, t o John Howard my wiff and new clothes, to Sauel Howard, my money and tobacco , and to old Mathew one yearling Stear calf and my best paor of breeches. This will was proved 15 Nov 1648 by Mathew Howard.
On 15 June 1649, Mathew witnessed the will of Edward Hodge of Lower Norfolk Co. There are continuing references to Mathew Howard, in Lower Norfolk Co., VA however up through 1652. It is not known if this was Matthew the elder or his son. These references include a court order in Lower Norfolk County for a 100# tob. bounty for killing a wolf and in [1652] Matthew Howard is listed in the tax listings on the Western Branch of Elizabeth River and at court 21 Dec 1752 in Lower Norfolk Co., Robert Woody was ordered to pay Matthew Howard a debt of 500# tob.

From http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=adgedge&id=I41169:
Matthew HOWARD's son John HOWARD on his 1695 will affixed a wax seal, which corresponds with the undifferenced arms of the HOWARD family of England, from which descended the HOWARD family of the Duke of Norfolk. The arms were on an escutheon, a bend between six cross crosslets fitchee. After the Battle of Flodden in 1513, Thomas, Duke of Norfolk, was granted an augmentation that appeared on the bend as a small shield with the demi-lion of the arms of the King of Scotland cut in half with an arrow through its mouth. The seal used by John HOWARD did not contain the augmentation. Many writers have stated that the use of the arms by John HOWARD showed that the family was not too distantly related to the Norfolk line. They also believed that the MD HOWARDs would not have used the arms, if they did not have the "legal" right. (2a) Illegal use of arms was a problem, both in England and America. The purpose of the Herald's Visitations in England in the 16th and 17th centuries were to determine those who did have right to display arms. Little, if any, effort was made by colonial governments to enforce laws regarding Heraldry. Contemporary with when John HOWARD wrote his will, a Mr. GORE, a carriage painter in Boston created arms for socialites there. Undifferenced usage of arms passed at death to a man's eldest son, other sons being allowed to use a differenced version of the arms. In that John HOWARD used the undifferenced, pre-1513 arms of the Ducal HOWARDs, his usage was illegal according to the laws of Heraldry. Whether the HOWARD family of MD was entitled to use a differenced version of the Ducal arms is unknown.
Marriage to Ann __: (1,2)
Death: (1) Bef. 1659. MD.
(1a) There were 3 HOWARDs or HAYWARDs among the English members of the Virginia Companies: Master John (b. 1560, Suffolk, m. Jane PASCAL, d. 1627, London), Rev. John (author of "Strong Helper" in 1614), and Sir John HOWARD, Knight (2nd s/o Sir Rowland HOWARD/Catherine SMYTHE, High Sheriff of Kent 1642). They contributed, in all, 112 pounds and 12s. A John HOWARD who came with Edward BENNETT's first company in 1621 was killed by the Indians massacre in 1622. His plantation formed the border line of the Isle of Wight, VA. From some of these HOWARDs, members of the Virginia Company, descended Matthew HOWARD, a close friend, relative and neighbor of Edward and Cornelius LLOYD in VA.
(1) 1635: Edward and Cornelius LLOYD were near neighbors in VA of Matthew HOWARD and Ann his wife.
(1) 1635: Matthew HOWARD in VA had a suit with Mr. EVANS.
(1) 1645: Matthew HOWARD was executor of the will of Richard HALL, a merchant of VA, who, in 1610, was one of the "Grocers Court" of England which contributed 100 pounds toward the plantation in VA. Col. Cornelius LLOYD was a witness to the will. The testator's property was left to Ann, Elizabeth, John, Samuel, Matthew and Cornelius HOWARD, children of Matthew and Ann HOWARD.
(1) 1650: Came to MD from Lower Norfolk Co., VA with his neighbor and relative Edward LLOYD.
(1) 1650, 3 Jul: Edward LLOYD laid out for Matthew HOWARD, on the Severn, southside, near a creek called Marsh's, beginning at a hollow called "Howard's Hollow" and binding on said creek, a tract containing 350 acres; also another tract running with Howard's swamp, containing 350 acres more, Anne Arundel Co., MD. These surveys were not patented.
(1) The south-side settlers followed the Severn back to Round Bay, Middle Neck Hundred, Anne Arundel Co., MD. Lawrence RICHARDSON and Matthew HOWARD surveyed there.

Birth Notes: Husband - Johan Adam "Adam" Papst
May have been born about 1734.
Research Notes: Husband - Johan Adam "Adam" Papst
Some disagreement whether last name was Pabst or Papst, but Papst is most likely. The German word Papst means "Pope." The individual who wrote his will for him spelled his name "Adam Papst," but Adam signed his name on that will as "Adam Babst."
---------
Some online sources show Adam's parents as Johann Paul Pabst and Maria Dorothea Weiss. This may be incorrect.
----------
From http://www.papst-family.canadianwebs.com/custom2.html :
"Johan 'Adam' Pabst ( aka Papst; embarked at the Bay of Philadelphia, Pennasylvania about 1750, died in Osnabruck Township, Storemont County around 1803-1807) married Eva Maria Hamm b. 1736 married in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania"
-------------
From George Cloakey email 21 Dec 2009:
"Adam served in the Revolutionary War as a member of the 84th Regiment, the King's Royal Regiment of New York. In this regiment he served with Butler's Rangers, and was awarded land in the eastern part of Upper Canada. Arrived in America on the ship Two Brothers captained by Thomas Arnot. Docked in Philadelphia on or about September 28, 1753. Spelled Papts on roll of Butler's Rangers. Signed his will as Adam Babst."
Cloakey quotes Vernon Buckley from 10 Sep 2000:
"The information I have from a old German Bible. Adam Papstt arrived in Philadelphia November the 8th, 1752. John Papstt arrived in Philadelphia September 28, 1753. The letter says that there were five other brothers. Where they went or if they stayed in Germany --here is nothing on them."
Cloakey quotes Sheri LeQuia:
"I just received from Annette K. Burgert, the author and researcher of emigrants from Germany to North America, a book titled Master Index to the Emigrants Documented in the Published Works of Annette K. Burgert F.A.S.G., F.G.S.P. Included in this index is an immigration of Johan Adam Probst which I think is one alternate spelling of Pabst- I have seen this spelling used on Pabst families I have researched. This immigration date is given as 1752. That is a match for your man isn't it?!!! The Source Volume listed is Northern Kraichgau. If I understand this correctly- it refers to the book Eighteenth Centruy Emigrants from German Speaking Lands to North America. (note that this could included Canada) Vol I: The Northern Kraichgau. Breinigsville, PA (1983) The Pennsylvania German Society (1982 Annual Volume #16) Out of Print."
Cloakey quotes Bill Hayes:
"Genevieve M. Templeton was the next to the last child of thirteen children born to Frederick W. Templeton and Elizabeth J. Papst, with my grandfather ( Rudolph Papst Templeton) being the thirteenth. Genevieve wrote a letter in May of 1966, I believe to my father. In this letter she gave some family history. I will copy a few paragraphs from the last page, as it pertains to the Papst family.
"'I haven't much on the Papst side of the family, only family tales. One was the original Papst was an officer in the German army, and he fell in love with a serving maid, and as is the custom in then German army an officer can not marry beneath their rank, so the tale goes. He had her sent over to England and resigned his office in the German army and married the gal, and brought her to U.S. Landing in Pennsylvania at Phila.'"
Cloakey quotes Bill Hayes:
"Written by Lt/Col Ervan Amidon was the following. In 1991 he obtained a copy of a letter written in 1971 by Anna Alicia Papst, (died 1983) daughter of Capt. Rudolph Papst (b. 1858). Col. Amidon said he had done a certain amount of editing of the letter. Col. Amidon wrote:
'Rudolph Papst was born in 1750 or 1752 in Germantown, part of Philadelphia. His father was Adam Pabstt who left Bonn (1749 or 1751) in the Archbishopric of Cologne. Adam Pabstt fled to Hamburg where he hid on a British ship. His girl friend and her family were emigrating from the Palatinate on the Rhine, to Philadelphia. I don't know her name. (***Col. Amidon is convinced this was Eva Maria Hamm).
'Adam Pabst's father was a wealthy merchant who became Burgomaster of Bonn and had hoped to marry his son Adam, to an impoverished baroness. However, the son Adam gave his father the slip and was hidden in a barrel on the ship until the ship sailed from Hamburg. Then Adam Pabstt married the girl aboard ship. The ship sailed from Hamburg to Philadelphia.
'Adam Pabstt was a Roman Catholic and she was a Lutheran. They compromised and both went into the Church of England. Rudolph Papst, their oldest son, was a great church man.'"
From George Cloakey:
"Johan Adam who fought with Butler's Rangers was given his land, 300 acres in Winchester."
Cloakey quotes Bill Hayes from 15 Sep 2003:
Written below is a claim by Johan Adam Papst for the monetary loss of items due to his loyalty to the British government during the Revolutionary War. John Poaps sent this to Bill Hayes Sept 15, 2003.

Genevieve wrote a letter in may of 1966, I believe to my father. In this letter she gave some family history. I well copy a few paragraphs from the last page, as it pertains to the Papst family. I haven't much on the Papst side of the family, only family tales. One was the original Papst was an officer in the German army, and he fell in love with a serving maid, and as is the custom in then German army an officer can not marry beneath their rank, so the tale goes. He had her sent over to England and resigned his office in the German army and married the gal, and brought her to U.S. Landing in Pennsylvania at Phila. where in the Revolutionery War. The German (or Hessians) sympathized with the English and as the account says, when the colonial army was right on the heals of the Hessians the Germans just got across into the Canadian border with the American army at their backs. So they got into Toronto, and I understand that is where they the Papst Hessians got their 160 acres on Young Street in Toronto, and which grandfather John Papst sold when he went to California. The story goes that Old Granny Papst had when she fled the colonial army was baby on one arm and a black cooking pot on the other. I have often heard my mother say "old Granny Papst couldn't speak English, so she must have lived a long time. There was an old Dutch Bible with family record in it. I have heard her say her uncle Henry took it to California and when my mother went out there she brought it back, much worn out.

from Harold Miller who did the research on Berne, NY area, stated the following in March 2008:
"Continuing my research to answer your questions, I find that Johan Adam Papst, father of Maria Papst, served in Butler's Rangers and was awarded land in the eastern part of Upper Canada according to George Cloakey.. John Papst, b. 1777, youngest brother of Maria Papst, died in 1869 in Osnabruck, Ontario. Maria's sister Elisabeth, married Gotlieb Otto, a distant cousin of mine, and they too moved to Osnabrouck (spelling?). Another brother, Rudoph Papst moved to Upper Canada. "

From http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~poaps/Biographies.htm:
Among the papers of Albert Wilson Otto (1856-1937) of Cut Knife, Sask., held by his descendants, is an account he recorded 1930 of an incident involving John Poapst. I know of no reason it would be passed down in the Otto family if it weren't related to the family of Johan Adam Papst.
"John Poapst was shot in the War of Independence with a charge of buckshot and was badly wounded. He managed to get away and his in a mow of hay in a barn. The enemy saw him and came into the barn looking for him. One of them came into the hay to look for him, and it was said by some of the old people that once it passed down through the hair of his head, but he laid quiet as he could and was not discovered by them. His wound was very painful and he was nearly starved with nothing to eat, but was afraid to venture out of his hiding place.
"When night came an old darkey and his wife came into the barn to do up some evening chores and he heard her saying, "I wonder where that poor man is? If I knew I would get him something to eat. John thought that this was only a ruse to lure him out to capture him, so he did not let them know that he heard them.
"The next evening he again hear her saying the same thing, but was still afraid that it only was a ruse to make him come out, so he lay still. His wound was now so painful and he was so hungry that he saw that he would die anyway. He made up his mind that if he heard her saying that again that he would venture out, which he did and nearly scared them into to fits for they were very superstitious and they thought he was a ghost.
"The old lady went to their cabin and brought him something to eat and then they hid him again until after night and the old darkey paddled him across the river to the British lines. After many narrow escapes, John at last reached the British lines in safety."

Birth Notes: Wife - Eve Mary Hamm
Lorna Wallace, daughter of Edith Poapst, believed Eva Maria Hamm was born in Baden-Baden. Other sources have Ontario, Canada.
Research Notes: Wife - Eve Mary Hamm
Ambiguous information from handwritten note by Lorna (Wallace) to Danielle Fowler:
"My great grandmother on my mother's side... came to Canada from Baden-Baden, Germany*." [Footnote: "Ask [Lorna's brother] Stan if I'm right about this."]
----------
There are thus far no definitive answers about Eva's parentage or where and when she and Johan were married.
From George Cloakey 23 Dec 2009:
..."[Y]ou will see from the data that there are a lot of different opinions for some things--like where Adam and Mary were married. Since Mary was not on the Two Brother's ships list, it is hard to prove that they were married prior to arriving in Philadelphia [abt 28 September 1753].
There was a Friederich Hamm on the Two Brothers, and it has been assumed by many that he was Mary's father. However, Amidon (the Papst research guru) points toward Mary being born in New York Colony to Casper Ham. Casper and his wife Ann Leych had a daughter Maria born 3 Aug 1732. But neither side appears to have proof. If it was Casper's daughter, then the passed down stories of how Adam and Mary met would have no basis in fact. But then which of the many stories does one "hang their hat on?"
Here is what I have in my file on Friederich:
Believed to be the father of Eva Maria as he was on the same ship as Adam Papst--but far from proven.
The following is a possibility
Baptism Records of the Gallatin Reformed Church: Gallatinville Gallatin Reformed Church 1748-1899
Baptism Date: 12 Nov 1786
Father: Friedrich Stickel
Mother: Elizabeth Hamel
Item #: 934
Child: Friedrich
Sponsor: Friedrich Ham; Maritje Schmit
Birth Date: 01 Nov 1786
It is also very possible that Maritje Schmit was the wife of Friederich and the mother of Eva Maria. Johan Adam Schmit was also on the same ship and he could well be Maritje's father. It is also possible that this is a different Friederich."

Notes: Marriage
Principal source:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~poaps/FamilyTree.htm and Email from George Cloakey 21 Dec 2009.
They may have been married on the ship from Hamburg to Philadelphia, which docked on or about 28 September 1753. This would place the year of their marriage in 1753.
Birth Notes: Child - Rudolph Papst
According to Rosemary Benson (quoted by George Cloakey 21 Dec 2009), his sons Daniel and John Joseph list their father's birthplace as New York. On the list of Loyalists coming from the colonies to Lower Canada, his age was given as 22 years old in 1781.
Birth Notes: Child - Maria Barbara Papst
May have been born about 3 Nov 1761. Rosemary Benson has b. abt 1761 in Pennsylvania (unlikely).
Birth Notes: Child - Elisabeth Papst
May have been born about 1758 (http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=bill_r&id=I22836) or 1760. In the opinion of George Cloakey, she was likely born about 1765. Rosemary Benson has about 1760.
Birth Notes: Child - Margretha Papst
May have been born on 3 August 1767.
Christening Notes: Child - Daniel Frederick "Frederick" Papst
The Schenectady Library website shows: "Paaps, Adam, and Eva Maria Hamin, Children: Daniel Frederick, bp. May 17, 1771."
Death Notes: Child - Daniel Frederick "Frederick" Papst
Death date may have been 28 March 1849.
Birth Notes: Child - Catherine Papst
George Cloakey (email 21 Dec 2009) has her born before 30 July 1773 or on that date.
Website http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:3047155&id=I582489013 has her born 17 Sep 1787. This is probably an error.
