Mogale — 2009-01-08 22:16:08Z

I think your Sarah Kissel may be connected to our family. I believe our Sarah was born in 1838, in Pennsylvania. She is the daughter of Jacob and Nancy Kissel/ Kissell. I found your Sarah in the 1860 census, married to William Fondersmith. Her age in the census is 22 (born about 1838) and her place of birth is Pennsylvania. I believe these two Sarahs are the same person, but so far can't be positive. She is living in Truro, Franklin Co., Ohio which is where our family was living at that time. If I can help further, please let me know.

Re: Jacob & Nancy Kissell-Franklin County, Ohio 1850 from PA

My great-great grandmother was a Sarah Kissel (possibly Kistle per Nathan Parker - Biography at http://dewitt.ilgenweb.net/nathan-parker.htm) married to William Franklin Fondersmith. The bio states Sarah was born in 1836 in Ohio. This is all I've been able to find. Any information you have would be greatly appreciated

philip4_9 — 2008-03-31 02:15:17Z

Would like help defining some of the Kissells of 1700's who first settled in Clinton Co.
====================
John Kissell b 1750 in Cumberland co, migrated to Clinton Co. Andrew married to Elizabeth Bowers is the only son of John I have but there are other in the census who could be his children. Defining who are the sons of Andrew b 1786 is son is also difficult.
I have several listings under these men but would like some help to know a proven list for this Kissel line.

----------------------
Not yet connected to John or Andrew above is a John b 1801.

John b 1801 and Margaret and their children of the 1850 census, Samuel Henry Catherine Jacob Margaret John William and Robert. Born between 1829-1849. Anything on these children is appreciated.

John b b 1843 was married to Priscilla Swarts daughter of John b 1794 and Catherine Rosekranz Swarts. I am looking for John Swarts b 1794 mother's Mariah's maiden name.

There are connections to the Morrison and Swarts lines and I am intersted in those as well. Feel free to contact me directly if you wish.

What did the letter you have find out about the property? Can you please scan and email it to me also

Re: kissell family

2001-12-06 13:09:53Z

I found a copy of the article. The article was writtten mon, Dec. 17, 1951 of Sanfrod Herald. James has two sisters in England that died leaving him the only survining child. It does not give the fathers name. The sister's names are Polly and Emma. The article is told by a miss Hayes Kissell who is a grand-daughter of James Kissell. Send me your email address and I will get it to you.

Re: kissell family

2001-12-06 03:19:35Z

I've heard the story about property in London but never about it being a church. My grandfather (one of James Kissell's sons) told the story and inquired of English authorities to learn more. That was in 1954 as I have the postmarked envelope from London. I was young at the time and have no memory of the details. Can the article you mentioned be scanned and emailed to me? I would like very much to see it.

Re: kissell family

2001-11-30 15:28:34Z

I have a newspaper clipping on the Kissell's having property in England that was unclaimed. The English government was looking for the heirs but this is from the 80's. My grandfather said he could claim it but he would have to give up his US citizenship and he did not want to do that. It is a church and cementry in London. It was said that the father was the minster and there was a fight about religion beliefs and the son left England to start his own church in Cumnock NC. does this help you any it is just hear say but it seems to hold a little truth in there somewhere.

I know it is very frustrating. I am stuck at this information myself. I have been getting conflicting information about a Henry and Catherine Kissell (they could be my anscestors) but there is no mention of a Sarah Ellen.My guess is(and I don't have shred of proof) is that Henry Kissell and John Kissell may have been brothers??? Henry was born in 1798 in Pine Creek Twp. I think your John was born in 1810. My E-mail is Debbrattin@aol.com. send me your address and I'll mail you copies of my info and maybe we can sort it out!!

1893 Marriage in Baltimore of Hannah Kissell (PA) and Kephart Pfeffer (MD)

WmWMcCollum — 2004-01-16 02:44:45Z

Today in a consignment shop near Fort Meade Maryland I saw a marriage licence and an accompanying marriage certificate dated August 17, 1893 for Kephart Pfeffer and Hannah May Kissell, who were married by a Pastor J.K. Comadi of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Baltimore City. A quick check at ancestry.com indicates that this couple lived at 635 Main Street in Reisterstown in 1930 and their married son, Kephart, and his wife Mary and daughter Mary lived next door. The elder Kephart Pfeffer appears to be the youngest son of George and Catherine Pfeffer, who lived in Reisterstown in 1870. His older brothers were James, John, Levi, William, Phillip and George. Hannah May Kissell was from Pennsylvania.
