Johan Andreas Ladner is found listed in the `Immigrants to the Middle Colonies` in 1761. Family lore would have the family originating in Wurtemburg, Germany. There were six children christened in New York City at the Lutheran Church to Johan Andreas Ladner and Catherine Grojan (a widow).
Their son Johan `Andrew` Ladner served as a Loyalist with the Kings America Regiment of Westchester and Long Island, NY; first appearing on a muster roll in 1777 as a drummer. He served under Colonel Edmund Fanning, who would become the Lieutenant Governor of Prince Edward Island, Canada. Andrew was given a grant of land in 1796 for his service, located at Lot 65, Queens County, PEI. (Nine Mile Creek)
Andrew married Sophia Hobbs in 1791 and they raised twelve children at Nine Mile Creek. The generations of the Ladner clan have been very prolific and the current descendants number into the thousands; residing in many provinces and states of Canada and the USA.
