Sparkman and Malissa Hill Sparkman. [The death cer 2 CONC tificate of William Lewis states that his mother was Martha Jane Hill!] He is said to have a 2 CONC ttended Burritts College in Spencer, Tennessee. He left Tennessee to come to Texas in 1877/7 2 CONC 8, inviting a neighborhood friend about the same age as he, to make the journey with him. Si 2 CONC nce neither of the young men had an abundant amount of money they decided that they would wal 2 CONC k the distance between their Tennessee homes to Texas. They walked by day and slept under th 2 CONC e stars at night. Finally they arrived in Troy, Bell Co., Texas and were fortunate to find w 2 CONC ork. According to Mary Lorena Menefee Sparkman the reason that William Lewis Sparkman left T 2 CONC ennessee was because he and his brother, Jerriah Monroe Sparkman had had an argument and so i 2 CONC n order to cool off, William Lewis Sparkman started his walk to Texas. (REF: Conversation wi 2 CONC th Lorena on March 28th, 1998) 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1878, William Lewis met and married Miss Mollie Gilliam, born in Robertson County, Te 2 CONC xas on April 19, 1862. After their marraige they bought land near Troy, Texas and set abou 2 CONC t farming the land. They would be blessed with eight children, all of whom were born on thi 2 CONC s piece of land in Troy, Texas. 2 CONT 2 CONT W. L. ("Lewis" as he was known) was one of the first trustees of the Loss Creek School 2 CONC . Descendants of he & Mollie, namely Eirys Sparkman Larance, Beulah Parker Sparkman, were am 2 CONC ong the teachers at the school when it opened in 1907--Beulah teaching during the second term 2 CONC . In 1908 students with the surname Sparkman attending classes at Loss Creek were Hubert Spa 2 CONC rkman, and Annie Sparkman. Several of the other students were cousins of Hubert and Annie. 2 CONT 2 CONT The first Sunday of every August there is a reunion of the descendants of this couple i 2 CONC n Coleman, Texas. In the following pages are newspaper clippings about some of these reunion 2 CONC s. The clippings usually list the descendants who attended that particular years reunion. 2 CONT 2 CONT Several years ago, [1988] Jesse Lee Sparkman wrote a booklet for distributio 2 CONC n at the aforementioned reunion. In that booklet was the following: 2 CONT 2 CONT "Lewis Sparkman (1855-1950) is said to have attended Burritts College, 2 CONT Spencer, Tennessee. Emigrated to Bell County, Texas in 1877, where he married Mollie Gillia 2 CONC m and settled with her on her portion of the Talliaferro Hughes League. Her mother, Orpheli 2 CONC a Hughes, a third generation Texan. Her grandfather, John Hughes and uncle, Talliaferro (Toll 2 CONC iver) Hughes, each had a class headright (Nos. 217 & 249) over four thousand acres, for bein 2 CONC g in Texas before its Declaration of Independence from Mexico, and possibly having served i 2 CONC n its army. Lewis was a strong man physically, with a deep Tennessee drawl and a good persona 2 CONC lity. He had many friends and although he came to Texas in gun-fighting days, he never seeme 2 CONC d to have any trouble. Shortly after arriving he and a companion refused to pay toll on a bri 2 CONC dge on the Brazos River near Waco. One of them pulled a gun to back up the refusal. The brid 2 CONC ge tender said, 'All right, you can go. But you keep doing this in Texas - somebody will cal 2 CONC l your hand.' He took the warning seriously and never presented a weapon again. He was a Sout 2 CONC hern Baptist, who usually served as a deacon in a country church. Occasionally he would sli 2 CONC p from grace and get drunk. The church apparently has a more benevolent attitude than now, a 2 CONC s they always received him back. He was considered 'not a fast man' and the present term 'lai 2 CONC d back' would apply to him. He said he had read 'The Fundalmentalist' by J. Frank Norris, a w 2 CONC idely-known Baptist preacher, who had to kill a man in his office, and commented 'We have me 2 CONC n that need killing, but we don't have horses that need stealing." 2 CONT 2 CONT He read "The Iconoclast" when its editor was in a bitter feud with the Baylo 2 CONC r University Baptists in the adjoining county. The Baptists set aside their principles lon 2 CONC g enough to kill the carpet bagger editor, Braun, in a wild shootout in downtown Waco. 2 CONT 2 CONT He also read "The Fundamentalist" by J. Frank Norris, a widely known Baptis 2 CONC t preacher, who had to kill a man in his office. As they used to say, "We have men that nee 2 CONC d killing, but we don't have horses that need stealing." 2 CONT 2 CONT Another periodical he read was the "Ferguson Forum" edited by Jim Ferguson 2 CONC , a former (and impeached) governor of Texas. Lewis was a life-long Ferguson supporter, belie 2 CONC ving that he was villified by political antagonists. 2 CONT 2 CONT Lewis and Mollie raised a family of eight children of their own, and three o 2 CONC thers left by the untimely death of their oldest daughter, Lillie Mae. All turned out well. 2 CONT 2 CONT In 1906 Lewis and Mollie, together with part of related families, the Hughe 2 CONC s, the Cullins, and the Dobbins who had trekked from South Carolina in the early part of th 2 CONC e last century, sold their respective parts of the T. Hughes League in Bell County, Texas, an 2 CONC d moved to Coleman County, where they settled in the Loss Creek community south of Coleman 2 CONC . As with the Sparkman family in North Carolina and Tennessee, th practice of migrating toge 2 CONC ther as a clan, probably for mutual protection, has since been discontinued. In the days whe 2 CONC n you might have a feuding family like the Hatfiedlds and the McCoys, living in the next vall 2 CONC ey, with a big chip on their shoulder, it was well to have numerous relatives in your communi 2 CONC ty.

When the early settlers built the 2 CONC ir homes in the area of this quiet, gentle creek the waters were cool and peaceful. They wer 2 CONC e not moving in any directions, as if the little creek was at a 'loss' to know which way it s 2 CONC hould flow. The first school trustees decided the name would be 'Loss Creek;, as it was nea 2 CONC r this little creek. Deed records dated 9 August 1907 show that E. J. Wesson, for the sum o 2 CONC f $10.00, sold to the trustees of Loss Creek School District No. 47 for school purposes, 1 2. 2 CONC 9 acres of land. The first trustees were: M. B. Nickles, W. L. SPARKMAN, E. J. Wesson, and D 2 CONC . L. Cullins. Lumber was hauled in wagons from Coleman, and the one room building was erecte 2 CONC d by men of the community who volunteered their labor. The first school opened in 1907 wit 2 CONC h Miss Daisy Alford as teacher, and Miss BEULAH PARKER, who became Mrs. W. B. SPARKMAN of San 2 CONC ta Anna, taught the second term. After two terms of school the boundary line of the distric 2 CONC t was changed, and it was decided to move the school nearer the center of the district, up th 2 CONC e hill and on the Sheilds road. the deed dated 29 June 1910 states that: 'J. W. Gates and wif 2 CONC e, for the sum of $50.oo paid by W. P. Nuckols, M. B. Nickles, and D. L. Cullins, trustees o 2 CONC f School Dist. No. 47, do grant and sell to the said trustees and their successors in office 2 CONC , a certain 3 acres of land for free school purposes for white children.' 2 CONT The trustees sold the first school site back to Mr. Wesson for the same amount the 2 CONC y had paid him, and moved the building to the new location. It was used for another term whi 2 CONC le a new building was erected, then it was used as a teacherage. W. E. Haney, a Coleman cont 2 CONC ractor, constructed the new building and painted it a pretty slate gray inside and outside 2 CONC . there were big windows all across the east side, with a porch and double doors on the wes 2 CONC t wall, then 2 big classrooms with a partition that could be raised, making one large assembl 2 CONC y room. A big coal stove with a black metal bucket was installed in each room. Men of the c 2 CONC ommunity were paid to haul coal from Coleman when it was needed. Records for 1912 show that W 2 CONC alter Seals was paid $1.50 each for hauling four loads; for expenses of the schools in 1914 2 CONC , Professor John Byrd was paid $22.50 for janitor work, hauling coal and water for the year 2 CONC , and $100.00 per month salary. Mrs. Byrd drew $50.00 per month for teaching, and the enroll 2 CONC ment was 47. In 1923, Clarence Cullins hauled coal for $2.00, Sid Cullins was paid $5.00 fo 2 CONC r cleaning the cistern, Ray Cullins hauled 2 loads of coal for $3.50, CLARENCE DURHAM was pai 2 CONC d $8.00 for taking school census and C. A. Yarborough $7.50 for work on cistern and hauling w 2 CONC ater. This nice frame building fully met the needs of the community for school, church an 2 CONC d Sunday School, revivals, singing schools, box suppers and literary programs. In 1926, a ne 2 CONC w red brick building was constructed, with 3 large classrooms, and the school went to a 3-tea 2 CONC cher school. The old frame building, but not the land, was deeded by the trustees to the Shi 2 CONC loh Baptist Church, which was organized by Rev. McCorkle of Coleman. Roland Kemp deeded an a 2 CONC cre of land across the road to the church, in 1928, the building was moved. In 1930, two mor 2 CONC e rooms were added to the school building. One was a large classroom, and the other was arra 2 CONC nged and equipped for a Homemaking Department, under the supervision of Miss EIRYS SPARKMAN 2 CONC , the Homemaking teacher. This was the first rural school in the county to begin a Homemakin 2 CONC g Department. "It was well received and used. Many girls who had quit school returned for t 2 CONC hese classes and thus were encouraged to complete their high school studies, which they did 2 CONC . During the same year the library was enlarged, science lab equipment was added, a PTA wa 2 CONC s organized, and more playground equipment was provided. In 1931, the school went to eleve 2 CONC n grades, and 8 month term, with 6 teachers and an enrollment of 116 pupils - the peak year f 2 CONC or the school. Consolidation of schools soon began, and Loss Creek held on until 1951 when t 2 CONC he high school students were transferred to Mozelle High School and thye elementary student 2 CONC s were transferred to Coleman. the teachers from 1907 to 1951 were: Daisy Alford, BEULAH PAR 2 CONC KER, W.

It was forme 2 CONC d from counties that touched the borders of the county, namely White, Warren and Bledsoe an 2 CONC d these three counties were shortened by a distance of two hundred and fifty-five miles to cr 2 CONC eat the new Van Buren County. White was the oldest of the three original counties, being for 2 CONC med in 1806, then Bledsoe County was formed in 1807. As one might think, Van Buren County wa 2 CONC s named after President Martin Van Buren, who held the highest office of the United States fr 2 CONC om 1827 until 1841. 2 CONT White County was named for John White who was most likely the first settler in the White Cou 2 CONC nty area. He is buried in the Union Church graveyard near River Hill, White County, Tennesse 2 CONC e. Last but not least, Bledsoe County was named for a Revoulutionary soldier by that surname 2 CONC . Mr. Bledsoe was killed about 1789 by Indians in Sumner County, Tennesse, which was his nat 2 CONC ive home. 2 CONT An act of the Tennessee State Legislature created Van Buren County in January of 1840. Th 2 CONC e county was made up mostly of level land and mountains, and more than half of the county i 2 CONC s part of a range known as the Cumberland Mountains. The biggest part of the land within th 2 CONC e county boundaries belongs to land and timber companies. Why? Well it is because the timbe 2 CONC r and coal are valuable natural resources and the state does not want them depleted in a rapi 2 CONC d manner. 2 CONT The soil of the county is a sandy loam, and with proper treatment has and will produce any c 2 CONC rop a farmer might want to plant, but especially vegetables do well. Due to the average year 2 CONC ly rainfall of fifty inches the pastures are very green, and lush areas for livestock to graz 2 CONC e. 2 CONT The section of the state in which Van Buren County is located rests on a plateau that is abo 2 CONC ut two thousand feet above sea levelo and is the reason that the summers are cool and the win 2 CONC ters quite cold.

The first letter is as follows: Odell Walker of Kuttawa, KY, has pr 2 CONC ovided me a very valuable piece of information from the Lyon County, KY Court Order Book 1, p 2 CONC age 10, 24 April 1854. It reveals that Abigail Pirtle’s father, Thomas Gregory, was a repute 2 CONC d soldier of the Virginia Continental Line in the Revolutionary War, and that he died in Lyo 2 CONC n County on June 10, 1814. His widow, Sally Gregory, died on March 7, 1842. Abigail, the wif 2 CONC e of William Pirtle (the father of my grandfather's grandfather), is listed as an heir with f 2 CONC our or perhaps more children. Although I knew that William Pirtle married Abigail Gregory 2 CONC , I knew nothing about her parents. Therefore, as I mention in the first paragraph of my arti 2 CONC cle, I certainly could not have written our family history without the generous bits and piec 2 CONC es of information contributed by so many interested individuals. I certainly thank Mr. Walker 2 CONC , a retired school principal and Lyon County Historian, for this valuable piece of informatio 2 CONC n, which the descendants of William Pirtle will appreciate knowing. This is the letter I sen 2 CONC t Keith today: I found Thomas Gregory in the Revolutionary War Pension Records at the librar 2 CONC y. The following information is written exactly as it appears: Thomas, Sally, W8876, Con 2 CONC t & VA Line, Sol was b & raised in Amherst Co VA & he lived there at enl, he m Sally “Salley 2 CONC ” Staples in the fall of 1787 in Amherst or Halifax Co VA & she was raised in Halifax Co V 2 CONC A & her father was dec’d when she m Sol, Sol later moved to Caldwell Co (later Lyon Co) K 2 CONC Y & he lived there 10 Jun 1814 & wid d there 7 Mar 1842 or 17 Mar 1843 both dates shown leavi 2 CONC ng children; Samuel; Joseph & Thomas Gregory who was b about 1791 & served in the War of 181 2 CONC 2 & in 1854 lived in Lyon Co KY, Abigail who m Wm. Pirtle & Mary Ann who m Samuel Henderso 2 CONC n & she was living in 1854, other children shown were; Betsey who m Jacob Fowler, Jeremia 2 CONC h & John W. Gregory, a grandson John W. & a son of Sol’s son Thomas was aged 33 in 1854 a re 2 CONC s of Lyon Co KY, Sol’s bro Jeremiah Gregory was mentioned as living during the Rev War & wid’ 2 CONC s brother Joseph Staples was also referred to. It was in the 1950s when Maude Celeste Taylo 2 CONC r remembered that Abigail's maiden name was Gregory, which I accepted without any doubt. Howe 2 CONC ver, it is nice that it can be confirmed that Jacob Pirtle's son William married Abigail Greg 2 CONC ory whose father served in the Continental and Virginia Line during the Revolutionary War. W 2 CONC ashington had no money to pay the soldiers, but they received land warrants in lieu of money 2 CONC . By settling in the new territories, they could take advantage of these land grants. This ex 2 CONC plains why so many settlers had fought in the Revolutionary War. In the listing of the Revol 2 CONC utionary War Service Records I could not pinpoint Thomas Gregory. After all, there were six V 2 CONC irginians with the name Thomas Gregory. Again, it is certainly nice to be looking for a nam 2 CONC e like Pirtle when doing genealogy research. I find it interesting that Halifax County is th 2 CONC e county where John Pyrtle lived at the time of Abigail's birth in 1796. Rockingham County, N 2 CONC C, where John Jacob Pirkle lived, is across the state line. Amherst County is north of Lynchb 2 CONC urg. 2 CONT Marriage 1 William (Billy) C.

By 1823 there were enough residents in the district that a petition was sent to the Genera 2 CONC l Assembly of the State of Tennessee at Murfreesboro to organize a county. Among the signer 2 CONC s of this petition were Jacob Pirtle and his sons, William C., Benjamin W. and Robert Pirtle 2 CONC . Jacob Pirtle served on the Commission that established the county when it was organized fro 2 CONC m Hardin Co. on Oct. 17, 1823, and he was a member of the first Court of Pleas and Quarter Se 2 CONC ssions held on Nov. 17, 1823. He served on the court for many years. He also served on the fi 2 CONC rst jury in the county. Jacob Pirtle died in 1837 (his wife, Mary called "Polly", had died i 2 CONC n Kentucky) and was buried on his 190 acre tract of land on the high hill at the mouth of Gi 2 CONC n Creek and the Hatchie River (these bluffs along the Hatchie River were known as Pirtle's Bl 2 CONC uffs in steam boating days). He also owned another tract of land on Short Creek on the sout 2 CONC h side of the Hatchie River. His will was recorded.

However, four of Jacob Pirtle's sons - Michael Pirt 2 CONC le, John B. Pirtle, William C.

The two so 2 CONC ns of Martin Pirtle were:James Pirtle (he married Charity Roberts), and Martin W.

Traditio 2 CONC n has it that they floated down the Tennessee (or Cumberland), Ohio and Mississippi rivers an 2 CONC d up the Hatchie River in flat boats.

(They were in the 1810 Census for Caldwell Co.). M 2 CONC ichael Pirtle died January 7, 1820; about 85 years of age, and he left a will which was recor 2 CONC ded. The Pirtle's of Hardeman Co., Tenn., are descendants of Michael Pirtle. Michael Pirtle a 2 CONC nd his sons, Jacob and Martin Pirtle, were listed in the First U.S. Census 1790, Ninety Six D 2 CONC istrict, Greenville Co., S.C. We know that the Michael Pirtle family lived in South Carolin 2 CONC a as early as 1771 because Michael Pirtle, Jr. (1771-1850) always gave his place of birth a 2 CONC s South Carolina. For reasons unknown Michael Purtle and his family, although buying and sell 2 CONC ing several tracts of land in South Carolina which we have records of (in 1784 Michael Pirtl 2 CONC e owned 400 acres and a grist mill on the Reedy River near Ninety Six, S.C.) were awarded Sou 2 CONC th of Green River Grants in Kentucky (1,000 acres). So, in 1797 Michael Pirtle's family sol 2 CONC d their property in South Carolina and moved to their new home in Western Kentucky. How the 2 CONC y traveled from Greenville Co., S.C. to Christian Co., Ky., is not known. Besides Michael Pir 2 CONC tle (his wife, Barbara, had died in 1796), his sons, Jacob, Martin, Peter, Michael, Jr., an 2 CONC d daughter, Margaret (John Cammack), moved also. It has not been definitely established if Th 2 CONC omas Purtle was related to the James Purtle of Chester Co., Pa., whose son, Nicholas Purtle 2 CONC , married Elizabeth Thompson on June 18, 1755, in a Quaker ceremony; or the George and Henr 2 CONC y Purtle (Pirtle) who lived in Berkeley Co. and Washington Co., Va., before settling in 179 2 CONC 6 in Washington Co., Ky.; or the John Purtle (Pirkle) of Rockingham Co., N.C.; or the ***Mich 2 CONC ael Purtle (Pirtle) who lived in Greenville Co., S.C., before settling in Christian Co., Ky 2 CONC . However it is believed that Samuel Pirtle, who traveled with the**** Michael Purtle famil 2 CONC y when they moved from South Carolina to Kentucky, and who lived in the ***Michael Pirtle hou 2 CONC sehold in Kentucky, was a nephew - the son of John Purtle (Pirkle) of Rockingham Co., N.C. Re 2 CONC cords indicate that in 1815 he moved. *** Michael Pirtle's Kentucky home was located about si 2 CONC x miles southwest of present day Pinceton, Ky. The area the Pirtle's lived in became Livingst 2 CONC on Co. in 1798 (they were in the Livingston Co. tax list for 1800), and in 1809 Caldwell Co 2 CONC . was cut off from Livingston Co. (They were in the 1810 Census for Caldwell Co.). Michael Pi 2 CONC rtle died January 7, 1820; about 85 years of age, and he left a will which was recorded. It i 2 CONC s interesting also to note that one of Michael B. Pirtle, Sr.'s sons was named for Peter (Par 2 CONC tle) Pirtle, the immigrant brother of Jacob Pirtle, Sr. In the copy of Michael B. Pirtle, Sr. 2 CONC 's Will, you will note the last name of the sons being: Jacob Purtle, Peter Partle, Michael P 2 CONC irtle, Jr., and Martin Pertle." (JLB Note: We see that there exist possible differences of op 2 CONC inion among the excellent researchers as to the initial entry into America and the family rel 2 CONC ationships of the early Pirtles/Purtles. The use of the name Jacob by so many of them is cert 2 CONC ainly cause for conjecture. Michael Sr.'s, wife, Barbara is definitely German based on her si 2 CONC gnature on a South Carolina deed per Brent Holcomb. Jacob is German for James and while use 2 CONC d by the English, it seemed to fall in disfavor and James became more prevalent among the Eng 2 CONC lish speaking peoples. Martin's eldest son is presumed to be James as the male listed in th 2 CONC e 1790 Greenville, S.C. census. The information shown below is an attempt to identify famil 2 CONC y members and to ferret out their relationship. Many thanks are due to many, many people wh 2 CONC o have sent me different pieces of information as well as to my wife for keeping up my intere 2 CONC st in researching family lines, accompanying me on numerous trips to courthouses, libraries 2 CONC , graveyards, etc. and for spending so many hours at the microfilm reader trying to locate ou 2 CONC r relatives. While the family name has been spelled in many different ways, I will use "Purtl 2 CONC e" since that is the name on the tombstones in the family Cemetery of Forest Hills located a 2 CONC t Bodcaw, Arkansas).

My Great-Great-Greatfather spelled his name Barkley and his son had the spelling of B 2 CONC arclay. This was around the 1850's. Will copy the supplement of the Barkley book and mail you 2 CONC . /s/ Barbara From: JGibbsArch@aol.com To: pirtlew@bellsouth.net Date: Wednesday, April 14 2 CONC , 1999 10:29 AM Subject: Berkel genealogy revisited Wanda, We have corresponded in the past o 2 CONC n the Berkels. I am trying to clean up what I see as a few loose ends. Regarding names, if yo 2 CONC u do not already know, Germans went by the second of their given names. Hans Jacob would hav 2 CONC e been known as Jacob, or in English as James -- he would not have gone by Hans, though Ameri 2 CONC can records might have recorded him by that name. Frequently, there were several siblings wit 2 CONC h the first name, such as Johann -- Johann or John was a very common first name associated wi 2 CONC th Christening. On the other hand, though they had different first names, Hans Jacob and hi 2 CONC s son Johann Jacob would both have gone by the same given name of Jacob/James. So we need t 2 CONC o be careful here. I have generally found that census records give the person's commonly use 2 CONC d names, that is, that both son and father in our case would show up as Jacob Berkel (or wit 2 CONC h some other variant of the last name). Our father and son should be expected to appear on re 2 CONC cords in America as Jacob or James Berkel, not Hans or John/Johann. You state that Hans Jaco 2 CONC b settled in the "Swatara Creek Valley westward past Williamstown (later called Jones Town)" 2 CONC . In my atlas, I find Jonestown (spelled as one word today) on the Swatara Creek in Lebanon C 2 CONC ounty. I find Williamstown northeast of Jonestown in Dauphin County. Was there another Willia 2 CONC mstown, which was later renamed Jonetown/Jones Town, which you are referring to? Also, do yo 2 CONC u mean that Hans Jacob settled on the Swatara, or do you mean that his son Johann Jacob settl 2 CONC ed there? (You also suggest that the Hans Jacob might be the James who was in Chester County 2 CONC , and you state that son Johann Jacob settled in Derry Twp., Dauphin County). It seems to m 2 CONC e that the father Hans Jacob, who would have been in his fifties when he came to America wit 2 CONC h his grown son and daughter-in-law, would very likely have lived with his son in America. Ei 2 CONC ther Hans Jacob or Johann Jacob could thus be considered head of the household, and either wo 2 CONC uld show up by the same name as Jacob/James. Where is Derry Twp.? -- I cannot find it Dauphi 2 CONC n, Lancaster, or Lebanon Counties in my atlas. Did the family first settle in Chester County 2 CONC , then remove to Jonestown, and later remove again to Derry, which if it is in Dauphin County 2 CONC , would have been still further inland? Did son Johann Jacob perhaps move to Derry only afte 2 CONC r his father Hans Jacob died? Did the elder Hans Jacob remain in Chester County, leaving it t 2 CONC o son Johann Jacob to move on to Jones Town and then Derry? Or, as you suggest, was the Jame 2 CONC s Berkel of Chester County simply a different person than either of our two Jacobs? You sho 2 CONC w Michael Leonhardt Berkel as being born in SC -- how can that be? He could very well have mo 2 CONC ved there as a young man, but Michael had younger siblings who were born back in PA, and it s 2 CONC eems that his parents lived their lives out in PA. Also, if that was his full name, Michael w 2 CONC ould have been known as Leon in America. If you have records referring to Michael Berkel in S 2 CONC C, I would suspect that he is not the same person. My wife is a direct descendant of Johan 2 CONC n Jacob's sister Maria Magdalena, who married Andreas Kramer, so you and she share a common a 2 CONC ncestor in Hans Jacob Berkel. You show that Magdalena & Andreas married in "Lutheran Church 2 CONC , Lancaster County" -- do you know what town that Lutheran Church was in? I can confirm tha 2 CONC t Magdalena & Andreas' son Philip Kramer was born in Manheim, Lancaster County -- is that per 2 CONC haps where his parents were also married? Today, Manheim is not that far from Jonestown, a dr 2 CONC ive of about 17 miles on Route 72 -- my guess is that Rte 17 is an old road that connected Jo 2 CONC nestown and Manheim way back then. My main interest is thus in confirming what happened to H 2 CONC ans Jacob, and what his own background was. I have found online that he may have been from th 2 CONC e town of Pheddersheim in the Rhenish (Lower) Palatinate. I show Hans Jacob's wife as Anna Ba 2 CONC rbara, based solely on sources such as yours. I have no primary records on any of these earl 2 CONC y Berkels, and indeed most of my info comes from yourself, which is why I ask the above quest 2 CONC ions. Most of my very early Kramer data comes from Sheila Kratze, with whom you have also cor 2 CONC responded in the past. Thanks, JIM GIBBS John Purtle, b.1725 in Ireland, died 1809 who marr 2 CONC ied Charity Dibbs, see letter above..we have contradictory info on this man. We are not sur 2 CONC e if he is the son of Jacob or James, but several researchers have indicated Jacob changed hi 2 CONC s name to James Purtle and married a woman in a Quaker ceremony. 2 CONT Marriage 1 Anna Barbara b: ABT. 1680 in Th 2 CONC e Palatinate, The Holy Roman Empire [now Rhine Valley, Germany] 2 CONT Married: ABT. 1700 in The Palatinate, The Holy Roman Empire [now Rhine Valley, Germany] 2 CONT Children 2 CONT Jacob [Berkel] PIRTLE b: ABT. 1704 in The Pala 2 CONC tinate, The Holy Roman Empire [now Rhine Valley, Germany] 2 CONT Maria Magdalena PURTLE b: ABT. 1706 in The Pal 2 CONC atinate, Rhine Valley, Holy Roman Empire (now Germany) 2 CONT Sources: 2 CONT 2 CONT Title: BOOKS: "Baptisms And Marriages in S.E.
