Subject: Heckman / Barklow / Kinsey ancestors
Date: Thu, 18 Jun 1998 08:56:42 EDT
I am researching my family history on my Mother's side of the family. They
are as follows:
Peter Heckman b abt 1779 m. Mary Elizabeth Kinsey 05 Sept. 1803\04 in
Franklin Co. PA.
I believe that Peter's grandfather (?) was the pastor of a Brethren Church ;
Little Swatara Congregation. I am just not sure. If anyone knows the family
line back from Peter, please respond.
The other family would have been the Barklow family. An arcticle in the
Myrtle Point HERALD (vol 86 no 45 Thursday, November 4, 1976) told of the
family of Barklows who left Ontario, Iowa for Oregon and founded the Church of
the Brethren.
This would have included: David Barklow and family, John Barklow and family,
Samuel Barklow and family, their mother Anah Meetlen Barklow, and Elizabeth
Snyder. Is there any Church records or biographies on these members of the
Church?
Any help would be appreciated.
