Hi Larry
My great-grandfather was Henry E.Isensee Yingst, born June 18, 1845 in Leechburg(?)Pennsylvania. He died August 4, 1934, in Toronto, Ohio. I have found the Shoop family in my family tree, but am not sure exactly how they are related to my ancestors. I don't have all the blanks filled in and may not have all info correct.

Hi Larry
Henry E Yingst is my great grandfather, married Mary E Hirst in 1872.Henry died on August 4, 1934,in Toronto, of a heart attack. Mary E Hirst was born Dec 15, 1854,in Union Co. Kentucky, to George Hirst and Tamer (Colclough) Hirst. Mary died in Steubenville,OH, on Feb 12, 1926, of ruptured gallbladder and peritonitis. Both Henry E & Mary E are buried in Knoxville United Presbyterian Church Cemetery, in Jefferson County, Know Township, OH. They lived at 516 Loretta Ave, Toronto for many years, until their deaths. They had 5 children: Margaret, Iona, Reginald (my grandfather), Bessie and Nora.
Henry E was a civil war veteran. There are many newspaper articles and mentions in several books about his being a veteran of the Civil War and the other men in his unit.
Do you have any information about Christina Klingesmith? She is Henry E's mother. I've found a good bit of info about her, but some parts are really sketchy. Her husband, Samuel, died in 1850, leaving her with 6 children under 10. I'm having a hard time locating the children after that, until they are adults. The info is vague about Samuel also. I can't find anything on him from 1795 (born in Bagdad,PA) until 1830 living in Annville Twp,PA.
I hope this helps you. Let me know if you need any other info. My email address is jearx7@yahoo.com. Janet Allen

Surnames: Yingst/Klingensmith
Henry's middle name was that of the minister of the Forks Church in Armstrong County. Henry's mother is Catherine Klingensmith. In 1860 Henry's brother Samuel b. 1850 and sister Christina b. 1848 are living with their grandparents John and Catherine Klingensmith in Tarentum, Allegheny County, PA. Samuel's father was Peter Yingst b 1762 in Germany. Came to America in 1766 aboard the ship Chance. He served in the Rev. War as did his father Heinrich Juengst the immigrant. The family has been traced back to 1400 in Germany by a German researcher. Peter has lived in Lancaster, Dauphin, Cumerland, Allegheny and Armstrong counties. He was a shoemaker. I have retrieved Peter's Rev. War pension application from Armstrong County. It is too long to enter here. Please contact me for the five page document. PS the Samuel Yingst you found in 1830 is NOT Henry's father. He is listed in 1830 numerically with his father in Armstrong County.
