I would love to have the information regarding this family. His wife Mary was married to John Bloomer and had 1 son whom I cannot find. I would also like to know what happened to Mary. Mary's maiden name was Batzner and she was an older sister to my GG Grandfather, John Batzner. I have her family records from the church in Germany. I made contact with another Hill family member but I guess she got to busy to contact me as it has been 4 weeks now. Thank you so much for replying to my post.

We are trying to piece part of this puzzle together. Were you part of Arch's daughter Elizabeth or Nancy? If it was Elizabeth was the father of her children Hezikiah Bushong? Hezikiah was married to Minervia Kirkendall but he had 2 other children with her sister, Elizabeth we are told. Can you help? Richard

In communicating with Marty Scearce I understand that: Archibald Kirkendall was first time married to Ellen Muir and they had two dau. (Nancy and Elizabeth). Archibald was married a second time to Eunice Nice, and with her his had 10 cildren (five of which were still living in 1887. (Jacob, John, Lydia, Minerva and Ellen). Archibald was married a third time (after Eunice Died) to Anne Wilt. Together they had three children: (Eliza - wife of Jonathan Hively, and Alice - Wife of Henry DeFries). I also have the names of Hezekiah and Elizabeth's children (Sarah and Mary). I was hoping someone else had already discovered which of Archiblald's three wives, was actually the mother of Elizabeth Kirkendall.
