Moses H. Deahofe was the fourth son of Johannes Dehoff and his wife Elizabeth. He was born on Sunday, September 15, 1793, and was baptized Moses H. Dehoff on Sunday, October 27, 1793, at St. Jacob's (Stone) Church in Codorus Twp., York Co., Pennsylvania. His uncle, George Philip Dehoff, and his wife Margaretha were his sponsors.
The family moved to Maryland in 1797, and it is presumed that Moses grew up there on the family farm near Greenmount in Carroll County. He was drafted in Baltimore and served in the Maryland Militia during the War of 1812. His service was brief, lasting from July to December of 1814, but, as a veteran, enabled him to apply for land warrants in Ohio and Indiana, in 1851 and 1855, respectively. At that time he was signing his name "Deahofe" or "Deahoffe." On the 1855 application, his son Peter Henry signed his name as "Dayhoff," and, as we know, our direct ancestor John Leonard adopted the "Dayhuff" spelling at about the same time.
In the conference of the Evangelical Church, held in Abram Ayer's barn in Dry Run, Union County, Pennsylvania, from June 11 through June 16, 1816, Moses was received into the itinerant ministry as a probationer. He remained a circuit-riding preacher throughout his life, combining that with the no doubt more lucrative occupation of tailoring.
He married Barbara Blough in Berlin, Somerset Co., Pa., in September of 1821, and their first child, Enos C. Dahuff, was born in Brothers Valley Twp., Somerset Co., on November 28, 1821. Moses was sent to Ohio by his Church in 1828, his older brother John, also a minister in the Evangelical Church, having preceded him. Moses' first wife died on February 9, 1830. Sometime later, he married Sarah Lenhardt. Moses lived in Sandusky Co., Ohio, when our direct ancestor John Lenhardt was born, and later lived in St. Joseph Co., Indiana (Penn or Portage Twp.) He married once or twice more, his last known spouse having been Nancy Ross, whom he wed in Mishawaka, Indiana in 1850.
Moses died in November of 1870, possibly at Jones, Cass County, Michigan, where his daughter Sophia Dayhuff Skinner resided. However, Cass County has no record of his death, so no official pronouncement of death was made there. For now, the places of his death and burial cannot be stated with certainty.

"At the first general conference in 1816, the [Society of Evangelical Friends] chose the name Evangelical Association... By 1900 there were 166,000 Evangelicals.

"Albright's People" began as a loose coalition of Jacob Albright's followers. Within a few years, they were organized as a growing new denomination called the Evangelical Association, which required its own facilities and programs.
The new church became interested in German-language publishing very soon after its organization. A Book of Discipline appeared in 1809, as did a catechism. These were followed by the first church songbooks, Das Geistliche Saitenspiel and Die Geistliche Viole. In the spring of 1816, the church authorized the establishment of a Publishing House.
A plot of land (66 x 136 feet) had been purchased in 1815 in New Berlin for a church building and the Publishing House. John Dreisbach (1789-1871), the first Presiding Elder of the denomination, had bought the printing press and other equipment with his own money, and all that was needed was the building.
There are no specific details of the building's construction. The press began operation in October 1816, so the building was certainly finished by then. It was a 1½ story frame building, 20 x 26 feet, built on the south side of the lot.

The Act of April 24, 1820 abolished the credit system effective July 1, 1820, fixed the price of public lands at $1.25 per acre, and set the minimum purchase at 80 acres. Under the cash system established by this Act, 94,182 entries for land were made in Ohio from July 1, 1820, to the closing of the Chillicothe Land Office in 1876.
Once the entryman (purchaser) paid for his land, a final certificate (or certificate of location, if land scrip was used), was issued by the register of the land office. This final certificate (or certificate of location), was sent to Washington D.C., for a U.S. Patent to be issued. Delays in issuing the U.S. Patent often occurred because the accounts and records had to be verified, a time-consuming task, and the president had to sign each U.S. Patent prior to March 3, 1833.

The first sign of things to come occurred in Orwigsburg in 1817
when Daniel Focht, the owner of a forge, was converted under the
preaching of two Evangelical preachers, Adam Kleinfelter and
Moses Dehoff. He opened his property for a camp meeting and
supported the circuit rider John Breidenbach as he preached there.

Moses H. Deahofe was the fourth son of Johannes Dehoff and his wife Elizabeth. He was born on Sunday, September 15, 1793, and was baptized Moses H. Dehoff on Sunday, October 27, 1793, at St. Jacob's (Stone) Church in Codorus Twp., York Co., Pennsylvania. His uncle, George Philip Dehoff, and his wife Margaretha were his sponsors.
The family moved to Maryland in 1797, and it is presumed that Moses grew up there on the family farm near Greenmount in Carroll County. He was drafted in Baltimore and served in the Maryland Militia during the War of 1812. His service was brief, lasting from July to December of 1814, but, as a veteran, enabled him to apply for land warrants in Ohio and Indiana, in 1851 and 1855, respectively. At that time he was signing his name "Deahofe" or "Deahoffe." On the 1855 application, his son Peter Henry signed his name as "Dayhoff," and, as we know, our direct ancestor John Leonard adopted the "Dayhuff" spelling at about the same time.
In the conference of the Evangelical Church, held in Abram Ayer's barn in Dry Run, Union County, Pennsylvania, from June 11 through June 16, 1816, Moses was received into the itinerant ministry as a probationer. He remained a circuit-riding preacher throughout his life, combining that with the no doubt more lucrative occupation of tailoring.
He married Barbara Blough in Berlin, Somerset Co., Pa., in September of 1821, and their first child, Enos C. Dahuff, was born in Brothers Valley Twp., Somerset Co., on November 28, 1821. Moses was sent to Ohio by his Church in 1828, his older brother John, also a minister in the Evangelical Church, having preceded him. Moses' first wife died on February 9, 1830. Sometime later, he married Sarah Lenhardt. Moses lived in Sandusky Co., Ohio, when our direct ancestor John Lenhardt was born, and later lived in St. Joseph Co., Indiana (Penn or Portage Twp.) He married once or twice more, his last known spouse having been Nancy Ross, whom he wed in Mishawaka, Indiana in 1850.
Moses died in November of 1870, possibly at Jones, Cass County, Michigan, where his daughter Sophia Dayhuff Skinner resided. However, Cass County has no record of his death, so no official pronouncement of death was made there. For now, the places of his death and burial cannot be stated with certainty.

Evangelical Association world 166,000 - - - 1900 Allen, Charles L. Meet the Methodists: An Introduction to the United Methodist Church. Nashville: Abingdon Press (1986), pg. 44. "At the first general conference in 1816, the [Society of Evangelical Friends] chose the name Evangelical Association... By 1900 there were 166,000 Evangelicals. The church split in 1894, primarily over the use of the German language, but also over other issues. "

"Albright's People" began as a loose coalition of Jacob Albright's followers. Within a few years, they were organized as a growing new denomination called the Evangelical Association, which required its own facilities and programs.
The new church became interested in German-language publishing very soon after its organization. A Book of Discipline appeared in 1809, as did a catechism. These were followed by the first church songbooks, Das Geistliche Saitenspiel and Die Geistliche Viole. In the spring of 1816, the church authorized the establishment of a Publishing House.
A plot of land (66 x 136 feet) had been purchased in 1815 in New Berlin for a church building and the Publishing House. John Dreisbach (1789-1871), the first Presiding Elder of the denomination, had bought the printing press and other equipment with his own money, and all that was needed was the building.
There are no specific details of the building's construction. The press began operation in October 1816, so the building was certainly finished by then. It was a 1½ story frame building, 20 x 26 feet, built on the south side of the lot.

Descendants of Heinrich DeHoff (DeHooff)
Heinrich DeHooff and his family arrived in Philadelphia September 29th, 1741 aboard the Lydia. After spending a few years in the Lancaster, Pennsylvania area the DeHoff family settled in Codorus Township, York County, Pennsylvania area. There are many records of the DeHoff family at St.Jacob's Lutheran Church in Brodbecks, Pennsylvania.
George Philip DeHoff was a veteran of the Revolutionary War and moved with his family to Columbiana County, Ohio where he is buried. George's son Johannes (John) born in Pennsylvania farmed in Columbiana County, Ohio until 1851 when the DeHoff family moved with several other families, including the Homsher family, to Northeastern Indiana.

The Act of April 24, 1820 abolished the credit system effective July 1, 1820, fixed the price of public lands at $1.25 per acre, and set the minimum purchase at 80 acres. Under the cash system established by this Act, 94,182 entries for land were made in Ohio from July 1, 1820, to the closing of the Chillicothe Land Office in 1876.
Once the entryman (purchaser) paid for his land, a final certificate (or certificate of location, if land scrip was used), was issued by the register of the land office. This final certificate (or certificate of location), was sent to Washington D.C., for a U.S. Patent to be issued. Delays in issuing the U.S. Patent often occurred because the accounts and records had to be verified, a time-consuming task, and the president had to sign each U.S. Patent prior to March 3, 1833.

The first sign of things to come occurred in Orwigsburg in 1817
when Daniel Focht, the owner of a forge, was converted under the
preaching of two Evangelical preachers, Adam Kleinfelter and
Moses Dehoff. He opened his property for a camp meeting and
supported the circuit rider John Breidenbach as he preached there.
