I have found in my searches that they often were off on their ages by a couple of years when the census taker came around, so it's difficult to say if we will ever know the correct year of birth. If I find a baptism record, which would be terrific, I will gladly share it with the list.

Sometimes tombstones are not accurate. In George's case, the tombstone lists: GEORGE KIME d. 16 Apr 1871 72y3m12d That makes his birthdate 04 Jan 1799, but who really knew exactly how old George was? If one looks at census records, 1850 and 1860 are in agreement. The 1860 census lists George at age 58. That places his birth at 1801-1802. 1850 census lists George at age 48. Same birthdate, 1801-1802. [I couldn't find George on the 1870 census] With knowledge of George and his siblings in later life, then looking at his father's household in 1810, one can (in all probability) identify George: 1810 - Schuylkill Twp, Berks Co, PA MALES 2 under 10 (likely George and Conrad) 1 10-16 (likely Jacob, b. 1796) 1 16-26 (likely Johannes, b. 1789) 1 26-45 (Conrad, the father) 0 45+ It appears George was b. 1800-1810, but like Sherry said the other day... we have to keep an open mind. Identity of these males could be incorrect. So how does one know for sure? Genea. seminars frequently discuss birthdates and professional researchers suggest one look at the documented record closest in date to the actual record you seek. So what documented record(s) do you have close to George's birth? A baptism record would be great! George was likely baptized (other siblings were). The problem will be finding the record if one still exists! Good luck in your search!

Hi List, I've just been going thru some old cemetery pics from the Kime/Repp Cemetery in Burbank, Ohio, when glancing at one of the pics of the stone of George Kime, son of Conrad b. 1764 and Anna Maria Repp Kime....the stone shows his date of death as April 16, 1871, as is well known but his age as 72 yrs.

I have a comment on the standard?generation?of 30 yrs, which is the accepted norm.?Recognize it's an average, which means several generations were used, then?averaged together to make the 30 yr standard. That standard is highly dependent on age when married & age of parents at birth of first child. In my specific family lines, over the past 5 generations (up to & including my own), the average comes out to be closer to 25 yrs (my ancestors married & reproduced?young obviously). But if you look at the generations following mine (my children, nieces, nephews & their offspring), they're tending toward lengthening generation years, due to the fact that people are waiting longer to get married & start having children. I think this trend bears out in the general population. There's another tendency that genealogists need to keep in mind.?The number of generation years change when you consider that people are having fewer children, and in many cases those children are quite a few years apart. In my generation, all 20 grandchildren of my paternal grandparents were born within a 9 year span, so we were all fairly close in age. However, my parents' 10 grandchildren were born over a 22 year span, and my own grandchildren will be an even larger span, since my eldest grandchild is 24 yrs old now & my son is?32 & just now getting married & they plan to have children but not immediately. In my family of origin, the generations severely overlap. My son is closer to his nephew & nieces' ages than his sister's age.?My sister's last daughter is younger than?her first grandson. This skews how you look for them generationally. It would be easy to assume that my niece & grand-nephew are in the same generation, when they're actually 2 different generations, and! even tho he's the older, she's a generation prior to him. This same thing occurred in the past when people had many children over many years. Sometimes this occurred when there were multiple marriages with children born in several of the marriages. I suspect we'll see it even more pronounced as we go forward generationally. Often the oldest & youngest child were/are as many as 20+?years apart. Birth position within the family of origin makes a big difference. I mention these thoughts cuz I've been led astray by drawing conclusions too quickly based on generation calculations. Use it as a basis but recognize there are many variables that could throw it off, so keep an open mind.

That's correct, it only proves that George participated in the Revolutionary War in some capacity, not the lineage back to Johannes. The DAR does not require or ask you to do that, in fact they don't want that, they only want you to go as far back as the Patriot. And it does NOT show George's father in the record for further clarification! As a member I have checked on that.

Thus far, I have seen Johannes Keim 1675-1753 and wife Maria Elizabeth Bollerin . Also, I have seen Johannes Peter Keim1711- 1782 and wife Catherine Stump 1711- 1732. But, if those dates are correct for Catherine Stump then her son being born 1753 does not fit. I am confused. Who are the real parents of George Keim and Catharine Schenkel???

A Henry Kimes (or his widow) was living in Gaithersburg, MD, in 1890: Census of 1890, Veterans & Widows http://www.msa.md.gov/msa/refserv/quickref/html/1890speccensus.html This site says this is a list of Union soldiers. The only Henry listed on the Civil War Soldiers & Sailors search serving for the Union was the Henry in the Independent Battery E, Pennsylvania Light Artillery. Anyone have any idea which Henry this is? --------------------------------- Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo! Mobile. Try it now.

Do you know that 21 was considered to be the age when one was no longer a minor back in 1799? For example, If 15 was that age, then Abraham could have been born in 1784 . . . -------------- Original message ---------------------- From: Cindy Kimes <cindykimes@yahoo.com> > Someone shared the following will for Henry Kimes/Heinrich Keim.
