Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Charles Porterfield Krauth, D.D., LL. D, Vol. 1 of 2: Norton Professor of Systematic Theology and Church Polity in the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Philadelphia; Professor of Intellectual and Moral Philosophy, and Vice-Provost of the University of Pennsylvania
In February, 1798, Charles James Krauth moved to Philadelphia, where, from December 26, 1799, to March, 1803, his name appears on the records of the German Society as a member. In the year 1802 he was one of the secretaries of the society, Peter Muhlenberg being the president. But his stay in Philadelphia does not seem to have extended beyond the spring of 1803. He moved further south to Baltimore, Md., and to Winchester, Va., and in 1814 we find him in Norfolk, Va., enrolled in the army for the defence of that place. The family, who seem to have lived chie?y in Baltimore, must have been in humble circumstances during that period. Six children were added to it after the removal from Montgomery County: John Martin, November 12, 1799; Eliza Anne.
