There was a third brother, John, b. 1806 who married Sarah Klingensmith, b. 1807. I'm descended from them.I think their father was named William, b. about 1755.A William Highfield received a warrant of 302 acres in Westmoreland Co. and helped found a church in Bethel Township there.Someone by that name also received a pension for war service, but the DAR has no record of him.Somewhere in this mix there is an Indian, but I don't know if she was William's wife or mother.There is a Highfield family out of Chester that might be related and someone else has suggested that they came from Maryland.There is a town called Highfield in Washington Co., MD.
