Last year I posted a query about Jonathan H. Swihart and learned he went with the Progressives in the 1882(?) split. Today in our local archives (Marshall County Indiana) I found a publication done by the Senior High Camp at Shipshewana on the Brethren Church in Indiana. This History was put together in 6 days according to the Foreward which was written by Barry Graham. As I was leafing through the book, I noted the name J. H. Swihart and Jonathan Swihart under 7 different histories for serving as pastor. Just in case anyone might be interested. Those churches are (no particular order and not all gave a date) Loree 1883-1887 Corinth College Corner Salem and Burlington Bryan Mexico 1888-1891 Roann

Hi, Does anyone know who this Jonathan Swihart was. I have 3 who might fit. I collect Swihart information because they are descendants of my Neff line.

He is the Jonathan H. Swihart written about in the Brethren Elncyclopedia page 1245. Parents are Jonathon and Elizabeth Metz Swihart. He married Mary Schillinger in 1861. He is not my line. I am only interested because of his Bourbon connection. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John and Marilyn Murray" <jfmurray@netnitco.net> > Does anyone know who this Jonathan Swihart was.
