However, I don't think it clarifies anything for me.

On the other hand, Baptist Historian Morgan Edwards states that Stoney Creek Brethren Settlement was founded in 1762 when G. A. Martin brought a group of Seventh Day Baptists (Ephrataites) to Stoney Creek. He provides a list of the people that came. It includes Philip Kimmel who had married a daughter of early Brethren pioneer William Knepper. This list of Colonial Brethren congregations has often been reprinted, and can be found in Durnbaugh, Brethren in the Colonial Period, p. 185.
