Abraham FAW was a merchant in Frederick Town and purchased and
delivered a great amount of goods for John Frederick AMELUNG, who had an extensive glass manufactury in Frederick County prior to and after 1794. Faw, who had tract "Resurvey on Right and Good Reason", 93 acres, also sold this property to Amelung.
Amelung became partners with John LABES and conveyed this land
to Labes, which still had a lien on it due to monies Amelung still owed Faw. John Labes conveyed tracts "New Bremen" and "Adam s Bones" (which were conveyed to him by Amelung) to Abraham USHER on 26 Mar 1794.
On 18 Sep 1795, Amelung conveyed to his son, John Frederick Magnus AMELUNG, tract "Resurvey on Right and Good Reason", 160 acres (from Thomas JOHNSON, Jr). Abraham FAW (of Montgomery County) claimed this was done without compensation and was intended to defraud Faw out of money due him. Amelung claimed it was compensation for land in Germany belonging to Amelung's wife. On 24 Jul 1799, John Frederick Magnuus AMELUNG entered into a contract to sell the lands conveyed to him by his father to George Christian GABLER.
John LABES and John Frederick AMELUNG both filed under the Insolvency Act; but while pending, Amelung died and Samuel MOALE became trustee and obtained a deed to himself. Abraham USHER has since died and James USHER was his executor. James Labes estate was to be sold to pay off debts, first to George SCHNERTZEL, then to James USHER for the estate of Abraham USHER. Faw was trying to have lands previously owned by Amelung sold so Faw could retrieve his money owed him. Peter VOLCKMAN was listed as a son-in-law of Amelung. (not recorded)
