Thank you so very much. This is wonderful information. If there is anything I can share with you, I will be happy to. I'm afraid I don't have anything quite this nice.

Surnames: Kephart, Alexander, Vincent
There was an Essington Kephart who was born in Huntingdon Co., PA 9 July 1807. He was a son of Henry and Elizabeth (Epley) Kephart. In 1827 he moved to Sandy Creek Township, Venango Co., PA. In 1830 he married Mary Ann B. Meiss. They had 4 children: Henry and George E.(both deceased by 1890); Mrs. Katherine Domer, and Mrs. Sarah E. Meyers. Essington was a Methodist preacher.

I'm related to a Rachel Kephart (born 29 Jan 1792) who married a Samuel Alexander and had a daughter Amanda Alexander (born 28 June 1813) who married David Vincent. . I'd like to determine if Rachel Kephart was related to Essington Kephart since several children bore the name of Essington.

Is your Essington Kephart related on this family line?

By any chance have you run across the name Rachel Kephart born 29 June 1792 (I don't have a birth place). She married Samuel Alexander 2 April 1811 in Shamokin Twp., Northumberland Co., PA. They later settled in Franklin, Venango Co., PA. She is buried in Frenchcreek Twp.
near Franklin.

I figure she is probably related to the other Kepharts (Nicholas Kephart line) from that same area but she doesn't show up on any of the lines that I've checked. The Kephart name was even carried over as the first name on distant family members so I feel this was indeed Rachel's last name. However, I'd like to find her parents and their direct family line.

I've been searching for many years on this one so I'd appreciate any information you might have about Rachel or parents.

I have followed your various messages looking for information on Rachel Kephart, the most recent being about 8 months ago. I am curious to ask whether you have received any thing in repsonse, since I am also looking for data on this ancestor.
My wife is a direct descendant from the Samuel Alexander b.2Apr 1787 that married 2Apr1811 in Shamoken twp PA to Rachel Kephart b.29Jan1792. I have the line down from Hiram Alexander b.Abt1765 (wife unknown at this time) through his son Samuel Alexander (b.1787); to his son Samuel Alexander b.1824 in Venango PA; to his son Samuel Bradley Alexander b.1862 in Van Wert County Ohio; to his son Garland Vernon Alexander b.1881 in Delphos, Allen Cty Ohio; to his daughter Cecil Eileen Alexander b.1904 Delphos Ohio, married Judge Colenso Powell in Toronto, Ontario Canada 1932; to my wife Sally Magdalene Powell b.1939 in Parry Sound Ontario, to whom I am happy to say I have been married since Sept 1960.
I have numerous siblings for various members of the family if they are of any interest to you.
What I am seeking is any information on the ancestors of Rachel Kephart, or the wife and ancestors of her father-in-law Hiram Alexander b.Abt 1765 - not to be confused with her son Hiram Alexander b.17Dec1811 who was the brother of Samuel b.23Nov1824.

I really need to get my printer set back up and learn more about setting this family tree up correctly without having doubles of people. This is the family tree I come from and I am loving all the information I am getting. Thank you all!
