Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
You might have better luck with a response if you gave the county and state of strawberry ridge, rock hill, fulton.
I have Knables in Bedford Co PA parts of which later became Fulton Co PA.

Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
Belinda:
I do not know where Strawberry Ridge or Rock Hill are located. I checked the atlas on line at the Fulton Co web-site but I couldn't find it. My Knables were from an area called Little Cove. I have located a Walter who was a son of Elijah Tuttle Knable and Margaret Ellen Runyon. Elijah was born 12 April 1857 and had a son Walter who was born 14 Aug 1882. There is a genealogy for this family on Rootsweb. This Walter is shown as marrying a Cooper. This is also my line as Elijah Tuttle Knable and my Martha Ann Knable Reed were brother and sister. Martha Knable Reed b. 20 May 1847 was my gggrandmother. She and Elijah were the children of William Knable b. 8 Sept 1823 and Margaret Bivens b. 20 Nov. 1828, all in Fulton Co PA. They had 12 children. When Margaret Bivens Knable died, William married again to Mary Agnes Cooper and had three more children. He was 76 and she was 25. Interesting. I have not personally researched the Knable line but have access to the research of others.
Please e-mail me for more information.

Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
Saw your good advice to the Knable of straw...ridge-rock hill... so am wondering if my Knable/Pittmans might be in your information. In our Pittman line we have a gggrandfather Ezra Pittman of Bedford Co. who married Elizabeth Knable, daughter of John Knable of "an old Pennsylvania Dutch family" of Bedford Co., PA. Sound like anything you have?

Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
I have several Elizabeth Knables who might qualify but since I didn't have any dates for her, I checked out Elizabeth Knable and Ezra Pittman on Rootsweb World Connect and see she is listed as the daughter of John Knable, Sr. and Catherine Eichelberger. I can't verify this but I do have an Elizabeth Knable in my line who might fit. This information came from Ron Rose of Fulton County PA and can be found on Rootsweb.
1. George Knoebel b. bef 1692 in Germany 2.. Stophel Christopher Knable b. 1718 Germany d. 1794 Berks Co PA. + Catharina Walborn b. 1722 Newannsberg NY d. 1807 Berks Co PA. m. 15 Mar 1743/44
3. George Peter Knable b.17 Feb 1744/45 Berks Co PA d. 1823 +Catharine Gebhardt m. 17 May 1774 Berks Co PA
4. a. George Knable b. 11 July 1781 Clear Spring MD d. 20 April 1842 Bedford Co PA b. John Knable, Sr. b. 26 Sept 1779 Clear Spring MD d. 29 Aug. 1848 PA.
My line descends from George Knable and Susannah Levering through their son William Knable.
Your possible line descends from John Knable Sr., his brother.
John Knable, Sr. m. Catherine Eichelberger, daughter of Michael Eichelberger and Catherine. She was born 3 January 1783 in MD and died 29 Jan 1862 in IL. She was buried in Elmwood Cemetery, Elmwood, Peoria Co IL.
Children of John Knable Sr. and Catherine Eichelberger are:
1. Enock Knable b. 27 June 1807 Bedford Co PA d. 21 June 1885 in Bucyrus, Crawford Co OH. He married Rebecca Gordon, daughter of Moses Gordon II and Mary Jane Truax. She was born 20Mar 1811 in Bedford Co PA and died 20 Feb 1892 in Bacyrus, Crawford Co OH.
2. John E. Knable b. 25 June 1810 Bedford Co PA d. 19 Apr 1881 Salem Twp, Knox Co IL. Married Mary All Clark b. 15 Sept 1814 in PA d. 28 April 1888 Salem Twp, Knox Co IL.
3. Comfort Knable b. 5 June 1812 d. 26 Aug 1885
4. Sophia Knable b. 1813 PA d. 1886
5. Elizabeth Knable b. 8 Jan 1815 d. 25 May 1841 (possibly your Elizabeth)
6. Mary Knable b. 22 Sept 1816 Plum Run, Fulton Co PA d. 21 Nov 1903, m. Jacob Nave, Jr. 16 Mar 1837. He was born 22 Aug 1812 Clark Co OH d. 24 Mar 1865.
7. Fanny Knable b. 14 Feb 1820 Hagerstown, Washington Co MD d. 13 Jul 1909 Reedley, Fresno CO, CA. She married Jacob Friend b. ca 1814 in MD d. 1891.
8. Ruth Ann Knable b. 28 July 1825 Bedford co PA, d. 17 Mar 1908 Chariton, Iowa.
9. Sarah E. Knable b. 25 Nov 1828 Thompson Twp, Fulton co PA, d. 5 Dec 1919 McConnellsburg, Fulton Co PA.
I can not verify ANY of this information but it is possible that this Elizabeth b. 1815 may be the Elizabeth you mention as marrying Ezra Pittman.
Hope this helps.

Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
Hi Patty, It's nice to hear from you. Your gggrandfather and mine were brother and sister. I descend from Martha Ann Knable, daughter of William Knable and Margaret Bivens. I am glad to know something about the line of Francis Ozion Knable. I only show a wife Maizie Smith and no other family for Francis. I'd be happy to have more on your family tree and to share more of what I have. Let me know what you need.

Re: knable of strawberry ridge-rock hill
I came into the Knable's though the Hess Family. We also have friends that are Knable's Charles and Bertie.
