General Notes: Wife - Maria Margaret Hinkle

RLH:

The following is from a research article sent to me by Robert L. Hess of Oakland, California. See notes under George Rudolph Henckel. According to The Henckel Genealogy (pgs 154-55) the children of George Rudolph were George, John Balthasar, Philip Christopher, Jacob, Margaret, Henry, and other daughters. Recent research shows that this list was correct, though incomplete. Numbers in brackets indicate notes.

Maria Margaret Hinkle,[58,105] birth date unknown, possibly during the 1740s. A Maria Margaret daughter of Georg and Anna Maria Hinkel (birthdate not given) was baptized 26 Mar 1758 at Frederick, Maryland.[5] Margaret married a Mr. Schmit[57] or Smith. Her husband (or her father-in-law) was possibly the Andrew Smith who in 1764 had been appointed to the commission to establish the bounds of George Hinkle's Long Bottom tract and was replaced because he was possibly "in some way related to the said George Hinkle." [40]

57. Correspondence from John F. Dern of Redwood City, CA, to Robert L. Hess, Oakland, CA, 6 Aug 1993:
"About 1787, #521 [Rev.] Paul Hinkel listed the children of Georg Henkel, son of the 'ersten Henkel' [the first Henkel in America, Anthony Jacob Henckel], as: George, Balser, Jacob, Margret Schmit, Philip, Jo___. He knew them all ... I have never settled on ... a plausable reason for the order in which he listed them."

BIRTH DATE:

Since she was baptized about 28 years after the probable birthdate of her eldest sibling, it really isn't possible to estimate a birth date from the baptismal date, i.e., it is unlikely that she was born only a short time before she was baptized.
