                       (Ive read that in early German naming patterns, the first given name is more of a title,
                       often named after a saint. The second name is usually the name that the person went by.
                       for example: Johann Phillip Hamman would go by Philip instead of Johann.)

From Geneva White
             I copied the German Records. I hesitate to give you the name of the gentleman who sent them to me. He was pretty rude about everything I sent to him, although he did give me the German Records and told me the Hamman Family Association had the genealogy done in Utah by a professional genealogist. He was selling DNA testing at some University. He may have known his DNA stuff but he knew little or nothing about genealogy other than that he had derived from the German Genealogy. When I visited his web site, it had no concrete information in it and most was noted with this may not be correct etc. Here is what he sent to me. I know this document is correct because I already had all of it in my genealogy before I read it except for the parent of one person, although some dates were missing and some children who died at birth.

                      They had 9 children:                                 1. Georg Adam Hamman b. 29 Mar 1715; d. 27 Oct 1778                                2.

                      So many of these children died very young or as infants shortly after they were born. Of the
                      nine children; Georg Adam, Hans Philipp, Anna Maria and Elizabeth lived--four of the nine
                      children. One twin died the same day and the other died the next day after birth. So sad to
                      lose so many.

Anna Regina Hamman b. 11 Mar 1757; 12 Nov 1762, Germany                    Of this family, Johann Jakob Hamman b. 1738 died at birth, Hans Jacob Hamman b. 1737
                    died at about one year of age, first Johann Jakob died and then Hans Jacob died less than
                     three months later. George Adam 1739 found with Maria Katharina Bromm and when she
                    died, he married Susanna Knauss and is our direct line. Anna Regina Hamman died at
                    about age 5; Maria Margueritha died at about age 30. Justina Regina died at about age 30.
                    Only Elizabeth, Philip 1744, Peter 1747, and Jacob 1749 lived to be grandparents along with
                    George Adam 1739. There may be a genetic pattern here or it may be just the time in which
                    they lived. Contageous diseases killed often.

As for patents, you would probably find these at the State Archives in Harrisburg; they have a great website. They will make copies from microfilm for you--for a fee.
EXPLANATION of the above LAND RECORDS:
            Of all the George Adam Hamman's that could be the one in the land records, I find the brother of Jacob and Philip, George Adam is the only possible one: George Adam married first Maria Katharina Bromm and then married second Susanna Knauss. I believe these land records belong to three brothers, George Adam Hamman, Johann Jacob Hamman, and Johann Philip Hamman. Peter is not mentioned at all here. These are some of the children of Georg Adam Hamman b. 29 Mar 1715 in Kurnbach, Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany and Anna Margaretha Beckher b. 16 Jan 1713/14 in Kurnbach, Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany. This is also according to the German genealogy records. The German records do not list George Adam 1739 as having died in Germany. It did not list his death date at all and that could be because it was not in the German records because he had died in America. This is the George that is the brother of Jacob and Philip and Peter.#1. 3 June 1772 date of transaction: Land Grant Grant or Patent-- Baltzar Hamman had the land grant.
              Baltzar seems to have no history. #2 12 Oct 1774: George Hamman (Grantee) shoemaker bought from Daniel Good and wife Maria
             Catharina (Grantor) The property first described as the grant of Baltzar.  Property: 32 Acres --67
              perches in Macungie Township adjoining the land of Adam Eberly, Jacob Dersham, Michael
              Speigle, Jacob Acker, Leonard Steininger, Land late of Baltzer Hamman. etc.
              Maria Catharina may be a Hamman but I cannot place her. The daughter of George Adam
              Hamman and Susanna was Catharina but she was born in 1797 so this cannot be his daughter.
              Or is this the daughter of Baltzar??? Would make more sense.#3. 1 Feb 1777 sold for 50 pounds Sold by George Hamman and wife Susannah (Knauss) to Jacob
             Hamman, weaver; 32 acres--67 perches as described in preceding deed. Deed recorded 1782.            This convinces me that this George Adam Hamman, brother of Jacob and Philip is the
             connection I correctly have made. This George Adam Hamman was born 12 Oct 1739. This
             would make the dates of Susanna Knauss and all their children tally up.#4 5 Feb 1782 In the Deed Book, Jacob Hamman was a witness to the property of Christopher Baer,
             yeoman and wife who sold this to his son Henry. Jacob's second wife was Regina Baer...
             remember? Regina had a brother Henry but her father's name was not Christopher and I don't
             find a brother of that name either. Unless it was a middle name or a step father.#5 1 Feb 1791 Philip Hamman (Mortgagor) and his(Must be Jacobs wife) wife Louisa (Philip is
             Jacob's brother) sold to Josep Horsfield, Bethlehem, saddler, 225 acres improved tract adjoining
             Nicholas Kern etc. The mortgage was paid off 24 May 1804#6 17 Dec 1791 Jacob Hamman Grantor and wife Lovis (Louisa) sold to Peter Ealer; 19 acres, 3
             perches in Whitehall part of this tract history. It would appear from the record that this was part of
             a patent that originally been granted to Jacob called Jacobsburgh in 19 June 1787.#7 Transaction date I believe this was a property exchange of a sort. Rhoads in this transaction was
             give a legal right to raise his dam across Lehigh Creek. Rhoads had sold property earlier to
             George Hamman, Whit
