There were quite a few news items in the Pennsylvania Gazette regarding Indian activity on the South Branch of the Potomac (aka Potomack and other misspellings).
As I said, I'm not a Conrad descendant. I have done only minimal research on Ulrich and hoped someone here could help. The ad appears to prove that he had five children as of 1758 which included one son who had returned and I wondered if that might have been Josephus. It seems, from the probate records, that he also had a son Ulrich Jr. who was over 21 yrs old in 1777 (born bef 1756 and therefore likely also to have been taken captive). With Barbara, that would seem to account for the three surviving children born before 1758 - but, as is common, there are psotings with children appended to his tree which don't appear to fit or maybe have inaccurate birth years.
I'm researching the Mallos who were taken from Fort Seybert at the time of the massacre - 28 Apr 1758. Michael Mallo's wife and five children were taken captive. The three youngest died, his wife, his Adam and daughter Mary were returned along with a son, Henry, born to his wife early in her captivity.
