Early Kightlingers

I just started reseaching this line in my tree. I'm a Descendant of Michael Kightlinger b abt 1785 in Lanchaster, PA. One of his 15 children was Andrew, b 1819 in Sugar Lake, Crawford Co, PA. His daughter Julia b 1855 was my GGmother and she married a Campbell. This line continued to live in Crawford county to this day.

I would like to find more information about Michael, his parents, when this line came to the US and where they came from. Many of Michael's children used the Kitelinger spelling.

Hello John, I am descended from a brother of Michael, Andrew Jr. b abt. 1785. Andrew came to Ohio with at least two sons prior to the 1830 census in Delaware County, Ohio: Abraham b. abt 1800 & George b. abt 1802 both in PA.

I have a rather extensive list of descendants of Jacob Kightlinger (Kitelinger) that may interest you. It goes: Jacob, his son Andrew and his five sons including your Michael and my Andrew Jr.

When you reply to this post I will provide my email address.

I am here in Crawford Co., PA. Have done some work on the Kightlingers, and know quite a bit about Michael. I have 25 pages of testimony relating to the divorce action between Michael and his wife Isabella. Also have some material about Isabella's family. Would be happy to share.

To all those who mentioned they have info. regarding Jacob, Michael & Isabella: I would love that information as well, please. My husband is a Kightlinger (who is from Bradford, PA) & I have been trying to piece together the Kightlinger lineage for him & our 3 little Kightlingers :) My father-in law supposedly has a good deal of info on the Kightlinger lineage that was recently passed down to him, but he has yet to really look through it. Michael is my husband's 5th Great Grandfather. We would love to know as much about him as possible, as well as Jacob (where did the Kightlingers originate from? Was Jacob the first to come to America?). Also, info. on Isabella would be wonderful since she is a big piece of our history as well.
If you would like to email me info. I would greatly appreciate it - mollymuffin30@hotmail.com
Thank you!

Molly K.
