Hi
I'm not sure if we corresponded in the past or not. I am trying to find information on my Folck family line from MD. I am told they left MD for MO and a wife died there and then my Great Great Grandfather remaried a Nancy Jane MCcubbin and moved on to Silverton OR, where my Great Grandfather is from. As my Great Grandfathers parents died when he was young I don't know much about his family.
Any help would be great .
thanks
Rick

Hi,
I have researching some family history and found Daniel Folck would be my Great-Grandmother's Grandfather. I am curious about any information you have on the family. My Great-Grandmother was Victoria Irene Folck.
It is much appreciated.
Thanks

My relationship is: Benjamin, son - John, son - David, son - James, and then me - Pamela.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-09-08 18:24:05Z

Sorry that I haven't answered back until now. My line from Benjamin is John, David, and James. There are times that I am in Coffeyville. Have relatives in the area. My cousins that lives near Coffeyville is at Dearing. Maybe we can meet one day.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-08-29 13:53:21Z

I could possibly use some of your information from the group sheets. My greatgrandfather was John W. Folk. Most of my kin have died so I don't have anyone to contact. Your help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-28 23:53:00Z

I have family group sheets on John Washington Folck 1851-1943. would that be any help to you?

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-28 23:50:42Z

according to my records, Benjamin was born to Jacob Folck and Elizabeth Frick in Feb 1821 in Green Co, Ohio. On 20 Oct 1847, he married Hettie Pettigrew who was bornon 6 Jun 11829 in Rockbridge Co, Virginia. So, she could not have been 30 years his junior. They are both buried at Coffeyville, Montgomery Co, Kansas. I do not live far from there and was through there about a month ago. Does this help you?

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-28 22:42:58Z

Glad to hear from you and am happy to share. I think I have located Norma Jean Russell. Hope to know in a few days. Will let you know. In the meantime, I can be reached at chef_marie_corbin@hotmail.com. I live in Cleveland, OK....marie corbin

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-08-28 16:23:35Z

How much do you know about Hetty? I have had someone tell me that Benjamin had married a woman that was 30? years younger than him.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-08-28 16:20:58Z

I am interested in communicating with you. My father's grandfather was John W. Folk.

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-28 03:46:39Z

Hi, I'm also related. Benjamin had a son Franklin P. Foulk, who had a son Watson Franklin Foulk, who had one daughter, Velda Marie Foulk, who had a daughter,-- Doris Christine Smith who was my mother. Marie Swords Corbin

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-25 04:39:11Z

can I be of any help to you? I have lots of info on this family. My Great-grandfather was Watson Foulk, the son of Franklin P. Foulk, the son of Benjamin and Hetty. I do not live far from Coffeyville, KS (I'm in NE Okla). Marie

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-25 04:30:54Z

You are corect, I never got that photo. Has since not been able to reach Norma Russell. But my relationship to this family has been confirmed....marie

Re: Folck

jmarie4261 — 2010-08-25 04:27:07Z

Yes, I am related.

Re: FOLCKs of VA/MD/PA

dublinblue — 2010-08-24 12:13:04Z

Thank you for your response. Would you happen to know where John & Mary lived?

Re: FOLCKs of VA/MD/PA

4wmarshl — 2010-08-22 02:31:52Z

My father's grandfather was John Folck. His father was David Jefferson. They go back to Benjamin Folck and Hetty P. Folck. So David and George were brothers.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-08-18 16:54:02Z

I found the post dated Mar 23 2000 from Norma Russell. She wanted to share her findings with you. I believe that it was her that said that she had a picture of Hetty. You had asked her to share this with you. Guess she didn't share. Also found a post by someone named Linda that was related too. This was on Apr 9 2001.

Re: Folck

SSHowell5794 — 2010-08-17 17:56:37Z

I did not get a photo of Hetty. I've been through all the photos from my grandparents and haven't seen one labeled Hetty. I know my Dad used to visit with his cousins in Illinois, but didn't take a camera to copy any pictures.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-08-17 17:06:11Z

Thanks for the update on your new address. I noticed on a post back a few years that a lady told you that she had a photo of Hetty. Did you happen to get it? If so would you mind to share it?

Re: Folck

SSHowell5794 — 2010-08-17 16:21:14Z

I talked to a lady on a bus trip I was taking several years ago. Her last name was Folk. She said her father-in-law dropped the C because he wanted to, but his second wife insisted that he put it back in, so he had children Folk and children Folck. He was somewhere in northern Indiana. I haven't been able to attach him to any one I know there, probably because I don't have enough descendants of those people.

I have a new email address. sshowell1220@comcast.net

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-07-31 03:20:20Z

Do you happen to know where Benjamin is buried? Also Hettie is buried with him. I think there is a son buried next to them.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-07-31 03:14:53Z

Yes, we are kin. What Folk are you from? My father's grandfather was John. My dad is James.

Re: Folck

bfoxgirl1975 — 2010-07-30 22:43:17Z

If it is the same Benjamin Folck, I believe we may be cousins! Benjamin Folck was was my great great grnadfather's name as well! Was he married to Hettie Pettigrew and had a son, John W Folck? Also, I live in Coffeyville, KS, so I think we may have a match!

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-07-30 20:15:39Z

My computer had a viruses really bad and I had to take everything out of it. Is your address the same?

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-07-30 20:13:09Z

Sharon's last name is Howell. You will see her name in my Folck replies.

Re: Folck

4wmarshl — 2010-07-30 20:09:14Z

I am sorry that I cannot answer why the name change to Folk. My Folk had taken the C off of their name. There is a George Folk in my family background. Benjamin Folck was my great great grandfather. He is buried in Coffeyville, Kansas. They had ventured to Kansas from Ohio.
Have you tried contacting Sharon ?. Will have to get back to you on her last name. We are 4th cousins. She might be able to help you.

Re: FOLCKs of VA/MD/PA

bfoxgirl1975 — 2010-07-30 02:33:42Z

I also have information on a Benjamin Folck, born Feb 1821, died 1905, married Hettie Pettigrew, born Dec 1830, died Feb 28, 1922. Benjamin would be my great, great grandfather. His son John W. Folck, born May 22, 1851, died May 6, 1943, married Mary Luceitta Potter, born Dec. 28, 1855, died Sep, 23, 1954. Their son, George FOLK, born Sep. 23, 1894, died Aug.12, 1981 is my grandfather. He married my grandmother, Cora Shirley Mitchell, born Jan. 19, 1922, died Dec. 25, 1970.

Re: Folck

bfoxgirl1975 — 2010-07-30 02:21:19Z

I believe I may be related to you! My great grandfather was John W. Golck, born May 22, 1851. His son, George Folk, born Sept 23, 1894, is my grandfather. Do you have any idea why the spelling of the last name was changed between my grandfather and great grandfather?

Re: hello

RickFoster27 — 2010-07-03 18:59:36Z

I am from the Laverne and Raymond Folck line. I remember having a distant cousin named Dale. I am currently trying to link our Folck family line to that of Cumberland MD and to John Folck and Daniel Folck.
Can you let me know if you are of this family>?

youngknudsen — 2010-06-02 20:04:46Z

This might just be a shot out of the dark. There is a Christopher Folck coming to Philadelphia in 1751 and moved on to Virginia. One of his sons is Jacob. This is an uncommon name and I have had a tough time finding much about Jacob, but the Jacob Folck I have has siblings. Hannah Polly, Susannah, Peggy. Several brothers as well as Abraham. Ancestry has this family. The wife of Christopher is Anna Elizabeth with unknown last name.

I realize this post is a few years old. But I just came across the request and just started doing a little work on this family at the request of someone else back east.

re: Folck

CindyinAtlanta — 2009-10-11 23:36:54Z

I know your posting was from a while back. But I hope you see this. I have an old newspaper clipping of Finley C. Hendrickson's obituary that mentions Oliver P. and Sarah A. (Folck) Hendrickson in it. You can email be if you'd like me to transcribe it to you in an email.

Folck Cementery

Moore1257 — 2007-05-31 22:18:22Z

I have been to the Greene County Historical Society and received a list of names of those burried there. However I have found a few headstones not listed and some information listed through the society did not match the headstones. My information is on:

George, Mary, Joseph H, Jacob, David, Elizabeth, Susannah and Alonzo G.

There are a few headstones that are not able to be read and I'm sure not all have been found due to damages by vandals.

Re: Folck

dublinblue — 2007-04-20 02:36:36Z

I have traced my Folck/Folk family to a Jacob, born about 1825 MD, who married Rebecca Madden (1824 PA - 1905 MD). According to Rebecca's obituary, Jacob joined the Civil War and was never heard from again. After his disappearance, Rebecca moved her family to Allegany Co., MD. As her own immediate family was deceased at the time, I believe her move suggests that her in-laws may have lived in Allegany Co.

The 1850 Federal Census for Allegany Co. suggests that
Jacob & Mary Folck may have had a son named Jacob, same approximate age. Is this couple related to your Daniel (?)
Would you happen to know anything about Daniel's siblings and/or their descendents?

I have been having a terrible time trying to figure out how my Jacob may fit into the Allegany Co. families.

Thank you for your help -- it is most appreciated!

Re: Folck

MaryEllen_Higgins — 2007-04-19 20:52:11Z

Daniel Folck Jr.m. Sophia Smouse (m. abt 1810) in Allegany County, Md. they had 13 children. The first child, Sarah Ann Folck, 1825-1891 married Oliver P. Hendrickson.(1820-1891)who were my great, great grandparents. I have much more information about the family because Sarah's younger sister (#13)wrote a diary. She lived to be 91 and in her account are many details of her young life and subsequent marriage. I also have letters from her to my grandfather, she was his aunt.

FOLCKs of VA/MD/PA

dublinblue — 2007-04-15 21:25:15Z

I understand that there are several F-O-L-K lines residing in the (west) Virginia/Maryland/Pennsylvania area during the early to mid-nineteenth century. Fortunately, there are far fewer F-O-L-C-K families. I am having difficulty researching my line. If any of the following persons or relationships appear familiar, please respond to this posting:

Jacob FOLCK (b. abt. 1825 MD) married Rebecca MADDEN (d/o Keeley and Susan). They had only three children: John, Susan, and William Keeley.

William Keeley FOLCK (b. June 7, 1858 Somerset Co., PA; d. May 30, 1933 Allegany Co., MD) married Mary Jane LOGSDON (d/o Moses and Anna). They had eleven children: Anne, John, Edna, Royal, Bertha, Hannah, Ada, Mamie, James, Emma, and Charles.

Charles Keeley FOLK (b. Nov. 24, 1886 Allegany Co., MD; d. July 5, 1973 Allegany Co., MD) married Celia Carol RAWLINGS(d/o Robert and Lillie). I have a modest amount of information on this branch of the family, should anyone be interested.

I am particularly interested in learning of some leads for both Jacob FOLCK (Folk?) and his parents. I have reason to believe that Jacob served, briefly, in the Civil War. Rebecca Folk's obituary suggests that he joined the war and was never heard from again. He may have been the deserter listed in Cole's Cavalry of MD or he may have served in a PA regiment. Any information would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Folck

dublinblue — 2007-03-31 18:43:07Z

I am not yet certain whether my family is related to the FOLCKs of Allegany Co. My FOLK family, however, did live in the Mount Savage area for some time and the name is sometimes spelled F-O-L-C-K on various documents and census reports. Would you be willing to share your information with me?

Thank you in advance for your assistance!

Sincerely,
Megan
