They also kind of get lost quickly! Nedra, don't know if they got lost quickly or not but we do have some Henckel- related Geigers in Franklin County: We have Joseph Geiger, Sr. (Anthony, Jacob, Valentine, Valentine, Valentine) born in 1789 in Martinsburg, Berkeley County, now WV, who settled in Franklin County, Ohio. He married first Elizabeth Albery and second Mary Albery. There were 2 children from the first marriage: Harvey Geiger Anthony Geiger (who moved to Jay Co., IN) >From the second marriage we have: William Geiger (moved to Licking Co., Ohio) Noah Geiger Peter Geiger Thomsa J. Geiger Richard Milton Geiger Nancy Geiger Elger Geiger Joseph Geiger, Jr. So Nedra--yes--we have Geigers associated with the Henckel family who did settle not far away from Clinton County, Ohio, but I still can't account for Samuel and Benjamin within this family that I am aware of--I would NOT rule out the possibility or probability that they DO connect to these Geigers though.
