I am a 22 year old guy and I have always wondered where I came from and this is all I know. My Grandfather, Timothy Kightlinger was born in PA on March 8, 1928. He had 5 sisters and 1 brother and all moved to Detroit. From what I heard, my great-grandfather left and moved out west. If anyone has any kind of info, please let me know.

I too am a Kightlinger by birth who wonders where I came from. My dad was born in 1915 in Youngstown, Ohio. His dad supposedly was from somewhere in north western PA. We do not know any Kightlinger's except us(my brother and I), yet supposedly we are related to a huge group that was in PA sometime before the turn of the century, and some moved to the Youngstown, Ohio area. Maybe we are related. Possible we have some "great"descendants in common. If you find out more, please email me direct. Thanks!

Ryan...I went back and reread your posting.....my grandfather , and from how I read, possible your great grandfather, divorced my grandmother (I think between 1917 and 1925?). He supposedly later remarried and moved to California. Do you think you could email me at sue@bunchofbananas.com?

There was an Arthur Kightlinger married Flora Eddy in Montcalm County, MI, in 1889. Through the 1890s I believe they lived in the DuBois, Pa., area before returning to Michigan by 1900. I have no clue why they would have moved to Pennsylvania unless Arthur was related to Kightlingers in Pennsy. There may be Kightlinger descendants still in Michigan, especially in Clarevoix County.
