Looking for info on children of Jacob Kephart, whose parents were David K and Ann Hoffman. Jacob married Rachel Kephart. They had Joseph (my GG Grandfather), Ann, Charlotte, Amanda, Isabella, Jonathan, Maurice, Elsie, Miles, Anna and Mary. Joseph married Clarissa Davis (my GG Grandmother); They had 8 children, one was my grandmother, Etta Mae Kephart Dumez, who had 10 children. Her siblings were were John, Wilbur, Austin, Louise (Wise), Cordie and Laura. I'm trying to locate anyone who might know more about Clarissa Davis. She died and Joseph later married again, but dont' know her name. If I can locate any of the other children of Jacob Rachel, who had 10 children, or Joseph and Clarissa, they may have more info. Jacob's parents were David Kephart and Ann Hoffman who had 5; David Kephart's parents were Henry Kephart, Sr. and Catherine Smith who had 12; Henry K's parent is Nicholas K, 1733-1829, Switzerland and Mary Fry, 1738-1822, who had 9 children. Nicholas is traced to Heinrich Kephart (Gebhart) from Basil Switzerland, 1699. Please email me @
