I recently found a lot of potential relatives' marriages at PCA, but
unfortunately most of the ones I'm interested in do not show the
associated church. I don't even know what religion, but most may be
different "flavors" of Episcopal (M.E., P.E., plain old Episcopal), as
the families may trace back to England, where they were probably
Anglican. Can anyone with access to a PCD in about the right time
period (say, c. 1904 and c. 1913) tell me which churches (and what
denomination, if it's not clear from the name) any of the following
ministers were associated with? I have indicated the year of marriage
for each; spellings are as on the certs.:

1902 John W. MacPherson
1902 Alexander Waddell
1902 W. C. Coleman (3412 Germantown Ave.)
1903 Frederic Reel
1904 E. O. Hiltermann, Holy Trinity (which Holy Trinity??)
1905 W. T. Henisley
1906 Henri M. G. Huff
1906 W. H. Gibbons

1911 William D. Jones
1911 Robert B. Wallace
1912 Charles S. Hirzel
1912 Charles W. Straw
1912 J. M. Moses
1914 D. A. Roth
1914 Charles P. Rooney (Rorney? Rovney?) and Rev. McShane
1915 Henry Stuart Paynter, Frankford
1915 Robert Harris Geachart Jr. (Teachart?), "Lutheran Ch." (which
one?!)

Thanks for any help.
