HARTWICK, John Christopher, pioneer missionary, was born in Saxe, Germany, Jan. 6, 1714. He was a missionary among the Jews in 1739 and is supposed to have been educated at Halle.

In the spring of 1746 he took charge of the congregation of St. Peter's church at Rhinebeck, Duchess county, N.Y., where he was pastor, 1746-58. He attended the first Lutheran .synod held in America at Philadelphia in 1748. He declined pastorates in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, New York, Massachusetts and Maine, but appears to have preached periodically in these states, 1758-96. He was chaplain in the American army during the Revolution, and being in New York in 1783 when the British evacuated that city he prevailed upon the Dutch Lutherans not to follow their royalist pastor Hansilil to Nova Scotia. He purchased a large tract of land from the Mohawk Indians, between Schoharie and Cherry Valley, described as "nine miles in length and four miles in breadth" which he failed to have patented by royal consent through the governor of New York. He then purchased a second Indian deed to another tract on the west side of the Susquehanna, six miles square, and had the purchase duly recorded. This purchase was made May 25, 1754, and on Sept. 15, 1797, the executors of his will met in New York city and arranged to establish the college and theological seminary. The income
from the estate was used to instruct young men in theology privately, until 1815 when the Hartwick seminary was opened and expanded into an educational institution of considerable note, located at Hartwick, in Otsego county, N. Y. Dr. Hartwick died at the home of J. R. Livingston in Livingston Manor, Clermont. N.Y., July 17, 1796.
