Johan Michael Speck, b. 29 Dec. 1750, was my primary search goal. According to information that I got from several sites on the net, he was married to Margaretha Kichlin, dau. of Peter Kichlin. (many spellings) She died before 1822. I have gathered some information on a Col. Peter Kichlein, born 8 Oct,1722, in Germany. He died near Easton, Northampton Co., Pa, Nov 27, 1789. Sources came from the DAR Library in Wash. His father, John Peter Kichlein, emigrated from Heidelberg, arriv. 21 Sep 1742. Settled at Bedminster, Bucks Co.PA. I have a copy of a handwritten letter written to a relative by G.C. Heckman in 1879. Also have a copy of the pension papers of a Peter Kachlein, of Northampton Co. PA. Wife, Elizabeth, (Gress), applied in 1828(not sure of this date). Elizabeth died in 1839. Names children Peter, John, Michael, Jacob, David, Elizabeth Ackerman, & Margaret. Also says that this Peter is a son of Col. Peter Kachlein. This info. found on Heretege Quest. I have not been able to connect any Peter Kichlin to Margarethe, wife of Michael Speck. They settled in Huntingdon Co., PA.
