The farm of Bernhard Zentmeyer b.1740 near Arendtsville, Pennsylvania

Bernhard bought this farm from John Goudy in 1780 for cash and a series of bonds. He refused to pay off the bonds, because we could not obtain clear title to the property. Recent research by us in 2020 confirms that Goudy was in fact a squatter, so he could not convey clear title. Bernhard apparently lost the farm at a sale for delinquent taxes on March 4, 1793.
