Hello Listers, Well, I too fall into the fairly new category of just discovering ancestors who were Irish Palatines. Prior, I had never heard of the term. My family were the Rinehart's of County Wexford. Rev. Peter Aaron Rinehart born July 11, 1672 in Switzerland and died in County Wexford, Ireland. He married Margareth Kupferschmied, born abt. 1676 in bern, Switzerland. Their son Ulrich Rinehart born Aug. 12, 1704 in Bern area , Emmigrated to America Aug. 28, 1733 and settled in Coventry, Chester co., Pa. Here they were very instrumental in establishing the Dunkard Sect or Country Brethern Church. Might there be anyone else working on this particular Rinehart family of Wexford? I do not believe they were related to the Rynehart family that also came to Ireland as Irish Palatines. Supposedly, Peter Aaron Rinehart was the son of Niklaus Rinehart who was the son of Andres Rinehart. I have reason to believe they too were Dunkards who left Switzerland because of religious persecution. Hope to Hear from Someone, Pat Uffenorde ( Issaquah, Wa. )
