It's Helter skelter composition genealogy, but tracing back from APC leads to ancestors named Death and Lamb. And I thought I had a weird last name. I'll sort out the details later; thus was ad hoc browsing copy n paste.

,"Dear Friend, I send you greetings on my 93rd birthday, March 21, 1890 and March 21, 1893, are the outposts.
To few is it granted to stand on either end of a century.
I have seen our country grow from five and a half to fifty million and arts, science and inventions expand into magnificent proportions, marking the progress of nations.
All the presidents except George Washington and John Adams have been my contemporaries.
Our national flag has added twenty-nine of her forty six stars to her groundwork of blue within my memory.
Though years and mountains do separate and ears and eyes have grown dull, the picture in memory's walls are still warm and bright, and years hangs among them. Somewhere - sometime we shall say "good morning."

Conrad Pickard VETERAN
BIRTH
14 Feb 1728
Montgomery County, New York, USA
Conrad Pickard was born either born on February 14, 1728/28 or March 5, 1727 at Palatine, across the Mohawk River from Canojohary, Tryon (now Montgomery) County, New York.
He was the son of Nicholas and Anna Barbara (Weiser) Pickard.
His mother was the sister of the famous Conrad Weiser who was an Indian interpreter for the Mohawk nation.
Conrad married Anna Mary Margaret Walrath on June 30, 1751, in St. Paul's Lutheran Church in Stone Arabia, Tryon (now Montgomery) County, New York. Anna was born about 1730 in Cayuga County, New York, the daughter of Johann Adolph and Anna Barbara (Ridder or Ritter) Walrath.
Conrad's name first appeared in Tryon County as early as 1750 in the records of the Lutheran Church of Stone Arabia. He was a member of the Committee of Vigilance for the town of Springfield in 1779. Conrad served in the Tryon County Militia in Colonel Samuel Campbell's First Regiment of the Revolutionary War.
Following is a transcription form several pages of The History of Springfield New York by Kate M. Gray. Note the error in his birth year and location of birth:
Conrad Pickard was born in Germany in 1740 (date on tombstone) and owned the farm known as the Menzo Edick farm, later owned by Geo. B. Flint and now by Ralph Lunhdolm. Back of the barn there is a large spring of excellent water, unfailing and clear as crystal.
Doubtless that was the reason Conrad Pickard built his little log cabin nearby.
On the Pickard farm, in a hillside field there is at present time, a small plot of ground containing a few graves. It is all that remains of the first cemetery in Springfield where many of the early settlers were buried. An old deed given by Conrad Pickard soon after 1800, reserves 12 acres of land on the farm mentioned as belonging to the town for a burying ground. As years passed the markers crumbled and those of wood decayed, and the plot decreased in size. A few years ago it was discovered that the burying ground belonged to the town, and the local D.A.R. Chapter succeeded in getting it cleared and reset the remaining markers.
that time, the D.A.R. also erected a new headstone for Conrad which I took a photo of in 2006.
Anna died about 1776 in Springfield, Otsego County, New York. According to page 307 of The Schempp Family History by George Christian Schempp, there's a story about Conrad that says he plowed a field on his 100th birthday. Conrad died August 5, 1827 at the home of his great-grandson, Abram in Owasco, Cayuga County, New York. Following is a transcription of an obituary for him:
From Cayuga Republican
In Owasco, on the 5th inst. Mr. Conrad Pickard aged 100 years and 5 months. He was born on the Mohawk River, in the town of Palatine, Montgomery CO., N.Y. was one of the first settlers in the county of Otsego and lived to see four American Wars. that time, the D.A.R. also erected a new headstone for Conrad which I took a photo of in 2006.

Nicholas Pickard
BIRTH
23 Feb 1701
Schenectady, Schenectady County, New York, USA
Nicholas Pickard was born in 1701 in Schenectady, New York, a son of Bartholomew and Eechje (Classez) Pickard. He was baptized on February 23, 1701 at the Dutch Reformed Church in Schenectady. Johannes Wemp and Geertse Slyk were witnesses at his baptism. He grew up on the family farm at Verrebergh on the King’s Highway, six miles west of Albany. Nicholas married Anna Barbara Weiser about 1722 in Schenectady.
They soon moved to the Mohawk Valley where they raised their family. There were very few white people in the area and due to Anna Barbara being the sister of Conrad Weiser, they felt safe. They had a total of seven children, John, William, Bartholomew, Conrad, Leah, Jacobus, and Rachel.
On April 6, 1742, Nicholas inherited his father’s interest in the Stone Arabia Patent of 4 lots, each with 50 acres. He sold his land to John Jost Snell. Conrad Weiser kept a journal in which he mentioned Nicholas and Anna Barbara in 1750:
“Sept. 2. About 10 o’clock, I left Colonel Johnson’s and came to Cana Johary to Barthol Pickert, 25 miles. My horse got lame this day. Sept 2. Came to Nicholas Pickert, about 5 miles, my horse very lame, was obliged to leave him and hire another, and a man to guide us to the road to Onondaga.”
“Sept 19. Came to Buret’s Field in rainy weather on the 20th to upper Castle of the Mohawks called “Canawadagy” I recommended John Pickert, my sister’s son, to then to learn the Mohawk tongue perfectly among them, to serve as interpreter for Penn., etc. after I am grown old and no more able to travel. They promised to do what they could, the young man speaks their language tolerably will now, and can write and read English, Dutch and Indian. His father lives about a mile from Canawadagy, and has the best opportunity to learn the Indian language perfectly.”
Nicholas Pickard was one of the original members of a company of 19 men, later expanded to 22 men, that received a tract of 45,000 acres of land known as the Schuler Patent, now known as the Otsego Grant, located in what is now Otsego County, New York. Nicholas and the Schulers acted as go betweens for themselves and other investors in New York City, in negotiating with the Mohawks and the colonial government of New York. The negotiations and purchase of this land began on June 27, 1753, when they petitioned Governor George Clinton for a license to purchase a tract of vacant land on the west side of Canadarago Lake. Allocation of the Patent was by drawing lots. Nicholas Pickard drew Tracts #78, #46, #25 and #18. Because of his knowledge of the Mohawk language, Nicholas was often called on
to negotiate with the Indians. In 1754, he and Jacob Christmann signed the Indian deed for the Snell-Zimmerman Patent. One of the Indian signers was Mohawk Head Satchem, King Hendrick Peters. He signed with the totem of his clan, the wolf. Nicholas signed with his initials, "NP."
In July of 1776, Nicholas was named as executor of the will of Frederick Condernman of Canajohary. Nicholas probably died in Fort Plain, but when he died and where he is buried is unknown.

" name has been spelled Daeth, D'Aeth, D'Eath, Death, Darth, Dath and others"
The Death family originally lived in the town of Ath in Belgium.
There it would have been rendered D'Ath, or
De Ath, meaning from Ath.
It was also occasionally an occupational name for a gatherer or seller of kindling.
In this case, the name is derived from the Old English word dethe, which in turn is derived from the Old English word dyth, which means
fuel or tinder "
The surname Death was first found in Kent at Knowlton and North Cray, where the family held lands since ancient times.
However, earlier records of the family were found scattered through Britain including:
Robert Deth who was listed in the Pipe Rolls of Bedfordshire in 1196; Roger Deth, who was listed in Cheshire in 1221; and Gilbert Deth who was listed in the Assize Rolls of Somerset in 1272. "
Properly D'Aeth, still an English name, and said to be from Aeth, in Flanders. This may refer to Ath, a fortified town of Belgium, prov. Hainault. The name D'ath is found in the U.S.
There is a surgeon and also an undertaker named Death.
"At the Liverpool Police-court, on Friday, the witnesses and solicitor in two cases bore the ominous names of Death, Debt, and Daggers"
(Morning Star). One family of the name of H. E. Death, having an objection to the name, changed it to Edeath. The U.S. names Date and Datt and the English name Dates may be derived from Death, D'Aeth, or D'Ath.".
Recorded as Dart, Darte, Darthe, Death, Dearth and possibly others, this is an English surname of two possible origins. The most likely is French as shown below, but recent research has also strongly indicated an English source which may have been "overlooked" in the past possibly because of its rather mordid conclusions. We believe that for many name holders it is of early medieval English origin, and one of a sizeable group of modern surnames that were created from a theatrical nickname.
In this case it was for a person who played the part of a figurative representation of "Death" in the popular medieval mystery plays."
Other such names that survive today are Angel and Life.
The source is the Middle English word "deeth", meaning death. A second origin is French and locational from the place called "Ath", with the fused preposition "de", in Flanders. The surname from this source has a variety of forms not just in England including D'Eath, D'Eathe, De Ath, D'Aeth, De Att and De Atta. "
