• General Notes

  She was born June 1, 1701 in Schwaigern, Germany. She was the daughter of Hans George Luttman and Anna Dorothy Northa. She married December 19, 1720 in Schwaigern, (Hans) Jorg Dieter/(John) George Teter. We do not know when she died, but, it was after the death of her husband, George Teter who died about March 22, 1743/1744 in Orange Co., VA.
  
  (Maria) Margaretha/Margaret Luttman Teter/Dieter accompanied and arrived with her husband, (John) George Teter/Dieter on the ship "Molly" in 1717.
  
  "It is possible that after the death of her husband in 1744, being left with several small children, the widow Mary Margaret Teter married again. At any rate she probably soon removed to North Carolina with the children. No further mention of her occurs on the record or what became of George Teter's land after his death. If the widow married again, any later transfer of the property might be lost through the change in name. A careul study of the early Orange and Culpeper Deed Books gave no positive results along this line....."
  
  HENCKEL and TETER FAMILIES, The Families in North Carolina:
  "The period in North Carolina was a very important one in the family history of both the Henckels and the Teter, and it is unfortunate that we have no documentary records, either church or state. We know that Justus Henckel was still in Pennsylvania September 11, 1749, when his son Abraham was baptized at Dunkel's Church in Berks County, Squire Boone (father of Daniel Boone) left with his family from his home near Oley, in Berks County, Pennsylvania on May 1, 1750. He lived next door to Jacob Henkel in Rowan County, North Carolina. Jacob Henkel is the only Henkel who appears in the Rowan County land records in the period 1750 to 1760, Squire Boone is said to have stopped over for some months, perhaps a year, in the Valley of Virginia on his way south. Perhaps the Henckels did likewise. The date of their removal from North Carolina, as about 1760, is established by the diary of Rev. Paul Henkel. This same record shows that some members of each family remained in North Carolina.
  
  "Two of the four marriages between the families were in North Carolina, and the other two after their removal to Virginia, which would seem to indicate that the families traveled together. Other known children of George and Margaret (Ludman) Teter were: Rosina Teter mar. Martin Peterson, she died 1804 in Hardy Co. (W.) VA, a daughter who married John Gartmann, Sr., and remained in Carolina. In 1811 her children were living in South Carolina."
