He took part in the battles of Antietam and Gettysburg. His only injury received in the war was a saber scalp wound.
After the war, he came to Fulton County IL and secured employment with Gale and Mariner, prominent livestock men of that vicinity. Soon thereafter, he married Catherine Jacobs (1848-1918) of Franklin County PA and they started housekeeping on a quarter section purchased in Blue Ridge Twp; afterwards he gave the land on which the Dunkard Church was erected.

A large number of this family moved to Iowa and are documented in a couple of family histories of that branch - original version printed in the 1950s and a couple of revisions since - one in the 1970s and the other in the 1990s if I remember correctly. I have copies of all of them.

Born: 1807
John Hawbaker was a fluent speaker and a preacher in the York Brethren Church. He was the first York Bishop in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. He was a liberal giver, having given away largely the value of his farm. He had a reputation in the community for visiting and praying with the sick. He was well thought of as a sincere Christian by all who knew him.
John changed the spelling of his surname from Hawbecker to Hawbaker sometime after the death of his first wife, Elizabeth, which his tombstone reflects. Wife, Elizabeth's headstone reads Hawbecker. His second wife, Susan's headstone reads Hawbaker. His children all used the Hawbaker spelling.

John Habecker, son of Christian and Anna Habecker, moved from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania to Welsh Run, Franklin County, Pennsylvania in 1812 with his brothers, Peter and Henry. Peter located in Greencastle and Henry in Upton. John's wife, Magdalena, died in 1800 while they were still living in Lancaster County. John and Magdalena were the parents of four daughters, Magdalena "Molly", Nancy, Elizabeth "Betsy", and Barbara. John remarried somewhere around l802, possibly to a woman named Mary or Molly. Five children were born to this union: Daniel, John, Frances, Christian, and Catherine.
John changed the spelling of the Habecker name to Hawbecker around the time of the move from Lancaster to Franklin County. He spelled his name Hawbecker in English and Johannus Horbakor in German on a contract made in September 1839 with his sons John and Daniel. John and his family lived on the Hawbaker Farm, which was situated between Welsh Run and Claylick, Pennsylvania. The family graveyard is also on the property.

born Warwick Township - died 1786 - married Anna __?__ unknown surname - she married 2nd to Christian or Peter Burkholder - I have found both names - I have been trying to document Anna's surname since the 1970s. Some sources list one, but none of them have ever been able to give me documentation. One of the hazzards of the internet.

lived in Warwick Township (had 400 acres!), Lancaster County, PA - received part of the land of Melchior and Addy Erisman when Addy died - land records in Lanaster County Court House document this family back to the children of Melchior and Addy and up thru the children of John and Elizabeth Erisman Habecker.]

There are various spellings of Hawbaker. The oldest seems to be Habeger, or Habegger. Habecker and Habeker were used in Lancaster County and the later is still in use.The second generation in Franklin County used Hawbecker but for many it gradually changed to Hawbaker.It seems certain tha the family originated in Switzerland, per Gary Hawbaker.In Switzerland in 1693 there was a division of Mennonites in Berne. One group followed Jacob Ammon (The Amish) and the other remained under the leadership of Minnonite Hans Reist. One of these last Reist Mennonites was Peter Habegger of the Emmen Valley near Berne. There is a record of a woman named Anna Habegger who was imprisoned for her religious beliefs in Bern in 1711. She is listed as escaped the same year. She lived in the village of Trub, and this town is often given as the town of origin for the Hawbakers.Most of the Information about the Hawbakers was from Gary Hawbaker or from the book Hawbaker Descendants from 1737 to 1978.

[No documentation for a Hans Jacob Habbecker as the father of these three men. This has been sort of a "legend" and has been repeated, but I am still seeking proof.
In fact I have never found out if they are brothers, cousins, or what. There were 3 Habecker men and 4 Habecker women who arrived in America on the ship, "Charming Nancy." Some people have indicated that a couple of these were married couples. This hardly seems likely since two specifically named are Jacob and Joseph and they both married Erisman women. The 3rd guy on this particular ship was Christian and I have never found out what happened to him. He may have been the father, but I have never found any proof. However due to a somewhat popular naming pattern in Pa German families where the oldest son was named after the father's father, he MAY have been the father. There was a John Habecker who arrived on a later ship. How they fit I have never been able to document. However, they all married daughters of Melchior Erisman and thus they are at least brothers-in-law - if not brothers. By the way, I have a page from a Bible believed to have been brought to America by Melchior Erisman.]
