  1. 1.  Johann Adam Visinant was born on 2 Sep 1719 in Hasslock, Edenbrock, Palatine Province, Germany; died on 11 Apr 1784 in Lincoln County, NC.

    Notes:

    From LeLa Whisnant's website: Adam arrived in Philadelphia from Rotterdam aboard the Snow Lowther on October 14, 1731 with his parents. He lived in Berks County, PA. Adam moved from PA to NC sometime between 1754 when he is shown as living in Heidleburg Township, Berks County and 1759 when he appears on the Rowan County Tax List of that year. (At that time Rowan included all land from present day Rowan County south to South Carolina and west to the Pacific Ocean.) Records do indicate he owned property first along Abbott's Creek before moving west of the Catawba to Indian Creek.

    Adam Whisenant was a member of Captain Moses More's Militia Company along with 66 other men from Lincoln County. ("Muster Roll of Captain Moses More's Company, County Unknown", Eswau Huppeday, Aug 1984.)
