I got the note below from Claire Giler and thought I would pass it on to the list. Does anyone have a clue as to the identity of Reverend John Keigher settled in Greene County, PA before 1770? Joan "I don't know where I photocopied the pages from. It was done many years ago. It was probably at a library several miles from here that I had done some research. Don't think it was from Hinshaw. On the left pages, at the top of the page is printed "Society of Friends." On the right pages, is "Friends Meetings with Extra-State Affiliations". Most of the references are in western Pa., but there is a Keigher mention. I hadn't found Kigers mentioned in the little Quaker reading that I had done. I'll quote what the paragraph says: 392. RIDGE (MUDDY CREEK) INDULGED MEETING, 1766-1844. State Route 30027 Garards Fort (Now Whitely) Greene County. Established in 1766 by pioneer Friends who settled in southwestern Pennsylvania. Peter Bachues, the first Quaker settler in Greene County, came from Virginia in 1766. From 1766-70 meetings were held in members' homes and were conducted by visiting ministers. In the latter year, a log meeting house was erected. Reverend John Keigher, not a Friend, is recorded as the first settled minister in that section. When the Redstone Quarterly Meeting (entry 386) was set up this meeting came under the care of the quarterly meeting. With the death of Peter Bachues the meeting lapsed about 1791 and remained dormant until 1822, when it was revived. The graveyard 100' x 100', 500 feet east of the meeting-house was acquired in 1808. In 1844 the meeting disbanded; some members joined the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Carmichaels, and others joined the Goshen Baptist Church of Whiteley."
