I am attempting to dis-entangle the three John KEIM/KIME/KIMES that lived in Adams County, Pennsylvania in the early 1800s. Here is what I have so far. Additions/corrections welcome! -------- (1) John KIME of Franklin township. This John KIME shows up in the 1810 through 1840 Census records of Adams County, PA. In the later Census records he is listed as 'John KIME Sr'. Per the Census records, he was born between 1760 and 1770. This is probably the John KIME who is buried in Flohrs Lutheran Cemetery, McKightstown, Adams County, PA. Listed birth and death dates from the cemetery records show that he was born on 13 Dec 1762 and died on 11 Oct 1841. The wife of John KIME (1) was named Elizabeth per church baptism records. Elizabeth died on 16 Dec 1852, aged 77 years and 9 months per newspaper obit. POSSIBLE!!! children of John (1) and Elizabeth KIME: Samuel (baptism record in 1793); John Jr (see below); Henrich/Henry (married Betsy STEINOVER in about 1816); Jacob (married Sarah KENTRELL on 3 Apr 1822); Susanna (married Adolph KLOEPPEL/KLOEPPER on 24 Nov 1833); George (married Mary LOUER in about 1820); Abraham (baptism record in 1816; married Barbara NOEL on 17 Oct 1837); Peter (married Sarah HAUDESHELL on 1 Feb 1838). -------- (2) John KIME of Franklin township. This John KIME first appears in the 1820 Census as 'John KIME Jr' and is probably the son of John KIME Sr (above). Based on the 1820 and 1830 Census information, this John KIME was born between 1790 and 1794. He died in December? 1847 (will filed in 1847; first notice regarding letters of Administration for his estate shows up in Jan 1848 newspaper). The executor of the estate of John KIME (2) was his son-in-law, Daniel NEWMAN. The wife of John KIME (2) was named Elizabeth per church baptism records. Based on Census records, John KIME (2) and Elizabeth were married before 1820. Elizabeth died on 9 Mar 1848, aged 54 years 11 months and 7 days per newspaper obit. NOTE: one of these Elizabeths [wife of John KIME (1) or wife of John KIME (2)] was the daughter of Henry WALTER of Franklin township. Henry WALTER's will, written on 9 December 1824, mentions daughter Elizabeth, wife of John KIME. POSSIBLE!!! children of John (2) and Elizabeth KIME: Margaretha (baptism record in 1825), Samuel (baptism record in 1828), Susanna (married Daniel NEWMAN on 4 Jun 1844; identified as eldest daughter in marriage notice). -------- (3) John KIME of Menallen & Butler townships. This John KIME shows up in the 1830 through 1860 Adams County, PA Census records. Per Census and newspaper obit records he was born about 1801 and died on 19 May 1862, aged 60 years, 10 mos and 3 days. He is buried in Fairview Cemetery, Arendtsville, Adams County, Pennsylvania next to his son, Ephraim, who also died in 1862. The wife of John KIME (3) was Sarah GROOP. Per a newspaper notice, they were married on 30 Sep 1824. The mother of John KIME (3) was Barbara (maiden name unknown). Will of Jacob WIDAW of Menallen township, written on 24 Dec 1827, mentions John KIME, son of Jacob's wife Barbara. Barbara WEIDNER, age 73, is listed in the household of John KIME (3) in the 1850 Census. Per a newspaper obit, Barbara WEIDAW, mother of John KIME, died on 3 Nov 1854, aged 78 years and 29? days. POSSIBLE!!! children of John (3) and Sarah KIME: Ephraim (listed on 1850 Census; married Sarah Catharine TURNEY); Juliann (listed on 1850 Census; married Jonah/Jonas ORNER on 23 Sep 1852); Lydia (listed on 1850 Census; married 1-Jacob SHELLAMAN, 2-Jacob BAIR, 3-Allen WEAVER), Sarah (listed on 1850 Census); George (listed on 1850 Census); Jacob (married Eliza BUCHER on 31 May 1847); Angeline (married Thomas L TAYLOR on 31 Dec 1845). --- Karen Arp [email protected]

WOW! Interesting! I'm curious... what makes you THINK George (m. Mary Louer/Lauer) belongs to John KIME, Sr's family? [not that I know any reason why he couldn't!] But you must have a reason for connecting him up w/John and Elizabeth Keim.
