"Imigrated to America in 1714. Spilman Papers Appendix History of John Spilman and Mary Fishb ack. John was one of the German ministers who settled first at Germanna and later took up la nd in Fauquier county, Vir, at a place called Germantown. John died before the Trustees coul d make up leases and they were later made out to his widow. She was left with a number of sm all children. In the Spilman papers part 2 the german Spilman's 929.273 Sp448m gives a great er history on the settlement and the Spilmans. Sir Alexander Spottswood, Govenor of Vir, fou nd no colonist skilled in mining and reduction of iron ore, commisioned Christopher Baron Vo n Graffenreid to bring a group of men having these skills. These people ended up getting stuc k in England for a winter while they got funds together to come to America in 1714. Their ar rival caused some consternation with officials who had no idea they were coming. There wer e no plans to recieve them. The Governor told the council that 42 men, women and children fr om Germany and proposed to settle tham above the falls of Rappahannock River to serve as a ba rrier to the inhabitants of that part of the country against the incursion of indians. The s helter they built was a pentagon very regularly laid out and in the very center is a block ho use made with 5 sides which answer to the 5 sides of the great inclosure, there were loophole s through it from which you may see all the sides of the enclosure. This was a retreat for t he people in case of indian attack. They made use of the block house for divine services. T hey go to prayers constantly once a day for prayers and have 2 sermons on Sunday. The service s were conducted in German. The group remained at Germanna for about 6 years working the min es and smelting the ore in furnaces which they built and whose ruins are still standing today . Feeling that they had then discharged their obligation through their labors and desired ge tting land in their own right. 2 families consisting of 29 people moved 10 miles or so furth er northward to settle on Licking Run at Germantown in what is now Fauquier County. On Jun e 2, 1724 these family heads appeeared at a court held for SpotyslvaniaCo, Va to prove thei r right to take up land in accordance with the royal charter. They made an oath that they ha d come to Vir in 1714 and requested certificates be made up granting them to take up to 50 ac res for each family member. Since all were not naturalized, it was agreed between them tha t with the patent should be taken in the names of the 3 of them who were; John Fischbach, Jo hn Hoffman and Jacob Holtzclaw. These 3 were then to make 99 year leases to each of the othe r parties.
The original spelling of the German name was SPIELMAN which soon became SPILMAN leavin g the records of these 2 Spilman group so mixed up that no one has been able to figure out ex actly who is who except when there are other idntifying characteristics.
There are records that show hw was not the son of Johannes Spielmanand Maria Gertrude Ho ltzclaw as formerly believed, but was in fact was the 3rd child of Henrick Spielman and Agne s Risserodt of the village of Oberschelden. In 1708 he was single and living with his step-m other in that village. He came to America in 1714 with the group of German miners. He was s ingle upon leaving Germany, but may have married while detained in England though it is mor e likely that he married shortly after arriving in Vir. He was alive on 2 June 1724 when h e proved his importance and his right to take up land but did die prior to 1729."
