Surnames: HENKEL, ROE, PRITCHETT, CLIFFORD, Hays Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Ig.2ADI/1182 Message Board Post: John Henkel come to Jersey county about 1852: He married Hannah Pritchett Lee (widow) in 1863. In 1880 Census he is listed with wife Hannah, son Jacob (7) daugher Mary (1) and brother Henry (27) Hannah died in December 1881 and is buried in the Hawkins-Pruitt Cemetery, Cemetery Records Onlin show a note that her husband is buried in Greene County Belltown Cemetery. As he was alive in 1894 in KS and his second wife (Lydia Clifford Hays HENKEL) is listed in Greene County 1900 Census as a widow with two step Daughters Della and Delia HENKEL I assume he died between 1894 and 1900 but can find no proof of his death with dates. Della and Delia Henkel,(twins) were born in sept 1881, possibly in Macopin County IL but have not been able to find any Offical records. Any information on this family would be appreciated.
