Martin Kindig and Family
I am interested in any information on Martin Kindig of New Britain Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.I am descended through his daughter, Catharine Kindig, and her husband, Omer Reese.Their daughter, Sarah Ellen Reese married Thomas Kay Beaumont.
This is the information I have on Martin Kindig's family:
Martin Kindig-born abt 1801
wife: Mary-born abt 1803
son:William-born abt 1828 (see note below)
son:Levi-born abt 1830 (see note below)
daughter:Catharine-born abt 1832, married Omer Reese (see note below)
daughter:Mary--born abt 1834
daughter:Sarah-born abt 1836
son:Jacob-born abt 1838 (see note below)
son:Moses-born abt 1840 (see note below)
son:Joseph-born abt 1842
son:Henry-born abt 1846
This information came from the 1850 Census for New Britain Township, Bucks County, Pennsylvania (east of Philadelphia), pages 300, 301.The census was conducted on 19 August 1850.
I also found Moses listed with the following family two days later (21 Aug 1850; page 305):
Jacob Delp-born abt 1819
wife: Elizabeth-born abt 1824(I believe this woman is a daughter of Martin and Mary Kindig)
daughter: Emma-born abt 1846
daughter: Hannah-born abt 1848
Moses Kindig-born abt 1840
Franklin Thomas-born abt 1825
On the 1880 US Census for Montville, Medina County, Ohio page 379 B, I found
William D. Kindig-born about 1828
wife:Sarah-born about 1830
daughter:Maria-born about 1860
son:Edwin-born about 1866
son:Willis-born about 1871
I am guessing that this William D. Kindig is the son of Martin and Mary Kindig.
On the 1880 US Census for Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania page 110 A I found
Levi Kendig--born about 1828
wife:Rebecca J.--born about 1836
Is this Levi the son of Martin and Mary Kindig?
On the 1880 US Census for Greene, Wayne County, Ohio page 210 A I found
Moses Kindig-born about 1840
wife:Mary E.-born about 1839
son:Samuel-born about 1864
son:Clement-born about 1869
son:Albert-born about 1872
daughter:Sylvia-born about 1874
daughter:Goldie-born about 1876
daughter:Anna M. Kindig-born about 1878
On the 1880 US Census for Hatfield, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania page 151 D I found
Jacob Kindig-born about 1838
wife:Mary Ann-born about 1847
son:Levi-born about 1871
son:Henry-born about 1875
son:John-born about 1878
daughter:Margaret-born about 1880 (she was 1 month old when the census was conducted).
Catharine Kindig, the daughter of Martin and Mary Kindig, must have died between 1855 and 1880.Her daughter, Sarah Ellen Reese, was born 18 March 1855 in Line Lexington, Bucks County, Pennsylvania.However, on the 1880 Census for Montgomery, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania page 354 C, I found
Omer Reese-born about 1827
wife:Elizabeth-born about 1831
daughter:Flora-born about 1872
I would appreciate any additional information on ANY of the above individuals (ie., birth/death dates, spouses' names, places of birth, etc.)Scott Bumbaugh
