7. Remarks: Husband was born in Germany and emigrated to the US in 1751. The surname was originally Beckenbach, but over a period of time the name became Peckinpaugh, with many various spellings, including Peckinpaugh, Peckenpaugh, Packinpaugh, Peckenpaw, Peckenpah, Peckingpaugh, etc. The first two generations who resided in the
US may be listed under either Beckenbach or Peckinpaugh.

6. Descendants of Johann Adam & Anna Maria Beckenbach extract: (p 18-19) The
three brothers Peter, John and George, who left Maryland in 1764, appear to
have kept close contact with another Maryland family, the Bruners;
particularly with the family of Michael and Barbara Bruner, the parents of
of George Leonard, baptized 10 Jun 1753, in the German Reformed Church, Fred-
erick, Md., witness Maria Peckinbaugh; and of George Peter, baptized 13 Jun
1758, the witnesses George Peter Peckinbaugh and his mother, Maria Peckenbaugh.
Our Bruner Ancestors in America, by Henry Lane Bruner and Elizabeth Bruner
Taylor, gives the time at which this Bruner family moved into Frederick Co.,
(later Berkeley Co.) Virginia, as 1761 and later, and the time of moving to
Kentucky, as 1786. The years from 1783 to 1786 were spent in Menallen twp,
Fayette Co, Pennsylvania.
As nearly as can be determined, the 3 Peckinbaughs, Peter, John and
George, left Maryland in 1764, settling in the general area of Morgantown, West
Virginia. In 1783 they, too, moved to Menallen twp, Fayette Co, Penns.
Peter's children are named in an article appearing in the Colorado
Genealogist in April, 1940, Vol I, No 7:
"PECKINPAUGH
The family of George Peter and Catherine Peckenpaugh of Brownsville,
Fayette Co, PA. George Beckenbach, with his father and several brothers, came
to Penns from Germany in 1751. The name underwent various transformations until
it finally became Peckinpaugh. (Frank Clay Cross, Denver)
Children with Birth Dates:
Peter Oct 11, 1766 Adam Oct 31, 1777
Frederick May 20, 1768 Mary Feb 11, 1780
George May 22, 1770 Henry Feb 16, 1782
Elizabeth Mar 27, 1772 John Oct 4, 1783
Barbara May 25, 1774 Susanna Oct 25, 1785
Catherine Feb 25, 1776"
This list of children, when it was published, was recognized by the
descendants of several. Among them, a descendant of John, second youngest, who
said her grandmother had a list in her Bible identical with the one in the
Colorado Genealogist article. John was supposed to have been born near
Granville, West Virginia.
Peter's will was found in Uniontown, Penns. It was dated 14 Jul 1784 and
admitted to probate 21 Apr 1785. In it, he is called Peter Pecken Bouch, and
also, Peter Peckenbouch. The will is in the handwriting of Charles Hickman, an
attorney, who was one of the witnesses. The other witnesses were Michael
Cronnin and Jacob Easter. The executors were Marck Easter and Peter Brunner.
When the will was presented, letters testamentary were granted to Mark Easter.
("Peter Bruner being dead").
The will leaves all estate, both real and personal to his beloved wife,
Caterin, during her widowhood, to be divided equally among all his children in
the event that Catherine should remarry. There was a special legacy to "my
dearly beloved and first to born son, Peter," of one pound of good and lawful
money, but he was to have otherwise, no more than a child's part. The will was
signed in German script, undecipherable to those familiar only with English,
Peter Beckenbach.
There is a record of a deed, dated March 9, 1786, in Fayett Co, Penns,
which must be in settlement of this estate. It is from Peter Pickenbaugh to
wife, Caterin, and son, Peter. This deed can not be found. The records of
Fayette and adjoining counties were checked. A note on the will said inventory
was to be exhibited the 21st day of May next, and an account or reckoning on
the 21st of April 1786, or when thereunto lawfully required.
Since the will mentions real estate, and no record can be found, it seems
possible that Peter may have had a claim which his widow and son sold to some
one who later patented the land. The maps show that most of the patents were
issued after Peter's death. A history of the region notes that the settlers
invariably respected one another's claims.
No proof has been found that George Peter's wife, Caterine, was Catherine
Tullis, but family tradition says they were married about 1765, in Virginia. A
Tullis family moved from New Jersey to Berkeley Co, Va, in 1760. Revolutionary
War records show two brothers, Aaron, born 25 Sep 1753, and Michael, born Feb
1756, enrolled at Shepherdstown to serve as riflemen in the company of Captain
Hugh Stephenson in 1775 and 1776. In the last year of his service, in the 8th
Continental Regiment, Michael served in the very famous Lifeguard of Gen.
Washington. This special corps, commanded by Captain Livingston, was made up of
56 men, 4 selected from each regiment. After his service, Aaron Tullis went to
Redstone, Penns, for 6 or 7 years, and then to Kentucky.
No record has been found that Catherine was related to these two. However,
the name, Aaron, was used by descendants. The name, Michael, had been
previously used, but not Aaron. George Peter was probably in Berkeley Co, Va,
in 1765. The Bruners were there at that time. However, all efforts to identify
Catherine as a member of a Tullis family have been unsuccessful.
_______________________________________________________________________________
6. Descendants of Johann Adam & Anna Maria Beckenbach extract: (p 23-26) It is
in this family that the tradition is found that tells of three brothers who
came into the wilderness at about the time of the Revolution. The names of
George, John and Peter Peckinpaugh are found on a petition which circulated
between the years 1776 and 1780, and finally came to rest in the court house in
Washington Co, Penns.
The Colorado Genealogist article states that George Peter Beckenbach, with
his father and several brothers, came from Germany in 1751. George Peter's
birth certificate shows him to have been born 12 Oct 1738, in Eiterbach,
Germany. We assume that John, George, and Adam were the brothers referred to.
It seems likely that Catherine and Mary, also, were born in Germany, but data
is lacking on the birthplaces of the two daughters.
The 3 brothers made homes in Western Virginia and Pennsylvania, and a
generation of 15-20 children can be attributed to them. Sorting them out,
however, is a real problem. We have the names of Peter's 11 children, but many
of the names were born by 2, about the same age and living in the same area.
All three brothers were dead by 1790, but some information has been found about
their widows.
1790 Census, Menallen twp, Fayette Co, Penns:
Catherine Beckimbaugh Widow Peckimpaugh
1 male over 16 2 males under 16
2 males under 16 5 females
4 females
The two Peckinpaugh widows in Pennsylvania in 1790, presumably, are the
widows of Peter and John. The tax records show the Widow Peckimpaugh, George
Pickembough and Catherine Baughenbaugh paying taxes in 1785 and 1786 in Fayette
Co, Penns.
Pennsylvania Archives, 3rd Series, Vol XXII:
p 557, Menallen twp:
The Widow Pickimpaugh paid 9.0 tax (1785)
George Pickembough paid 7.6 tax (1785)
p 614, Menallen twp:
Catherine Baughenbaugh paid 10.07 tax (1786)
p 622, Luzerne twp:
George Pickenbough paid 1.9 tax (1786)
The Bruner Genealogy, already referred to, tells that George Peckinbaugh
went to Kentucky in 1786 with Michael Bruner, wife Barbara, and Leonard, their
son, and George Bruner, who was related to them, and had joined them in
Pennsylvania in 1783. (This may be the John George Brenner, wife Anna Maria,
who were sponsors in 1786 in Zion Lutheran Church, Greensburg, Pa, for George
Peter, son of George Peter and Barbra Beckenbach.)
In 1791, George Peter's widow, Catherine, with the younger children, Mary,
Henry, John, and Susanna, and with the oldest son, Peter, his wife Barbara and
their children, went to Kentucky.
She seems not to have remarried, at least not before 1802, when she gave
permission for Susanna to marry:
"Oct 13th day 1802
Sir I will be obliged to you if Mr. Jacob Rice calls on you for license
for him and my daughter Susanna Peckenpaugh you will be so kind as to give then
to him and you will oblige your friend.
Att: Wm Kelso, Clk, B.C. Catherine Peckenpaugh
Henry Peckenpaugh"
The copy is dated 9 Sep 1955, and signed Roy McCoy, Clerk Breckinridge
County Court, Hardinsburg, Ky; by Signa Board.
There is no question but that this is Peter's widow Catherine, mother of
Susanna, born 1785, in Penns.
However, there was another Peckenpaugh widow there, by 1796. Hardin Co, Ky
Marriages 1792-1812 records the marriage of Caty Peckenpaugh, the daughter of
Caty Huckleberry; bond Dec 2, 1796; married Oct 3, 1796 by Josiah Dodge. It is
not known whether Caty Huckleberry was the Widow of the George Peckinbaugh who
accompanied the Bruners to Kentucky in 1786, or whether she was the widow of
John, counted in the 1790 census of Fayette Co, Pa and came after that date to
Kentucky, perhaps on 1791.
Others beside Catherine, Peter and Barbara, and the children of both
families were in that 1791 migration. A Christiana Pickenpaugh who married
Joseph Bartholomew in 1787, in Penns, moved with her family, to the Louisville
area in 1791, or perhaps, a year or two earlier.
Until further information is found, the descendants of the three brothers
who left Maryland in 1764 might be placed in two categories: those belonging to
Peter and Catherine, and those belonging to John or George.

7. Descendants of Johann Adam & Anna Maria Beckenbach extract: (p 137-38)
George Peter Peckinpaugh, first child of Fayette Co, Peter and Catherine
(Tullis) Peckinpaugh, was born 11 Oct 1766, probably in West Virginia. He md
before Oct 1785, Barbara Ridenour. A bible record of their children has not
been found, but the following appear to belong to the same family, and several
are positively identified as children of Peter and Barbara:
The Census records inicate that Peter and Barbara may have had a daughter
born before 1790, and possibly another son. It's difficult to tell before 1850,
whether some one in the household was a member of the family. In every case
except that of Catherine, there are links between the person named and others
in the family. In her case, the only inofrmation about her, found so far, is
the record of her marriage.
The census records for Peter and Barbara (Ridenour) Peckinpaugh:
1790 German twp, Fayette Co, Penns.
Peter Peckenpaugh 2 females
1 male over 16
2 males under 16
1800 Breckinridge Co, Kentucky census, lists Peter Pakenpaugh, and his
brothers Henry and John, all as heads of households, but does not show the
make-up of families.

Peter Peckenpaugh 1 female over 45

Peter Peckenpaugh
1 male over 45 1 female over 45

The marriage record for Peter and Barbara has not been found. It is
tradition that she was named Barbara Ridenour. Ridenour is a middle name for
several, in succeeding generations.
In a letter to Mrs. Clawson in 1953, Dr. George Ridenour, of Caryville,
Tenn, said, "My great great grandfather was Henry Ridenour, born 1740 (?). I
have to rely upon tradition for my statement about the relationship of Henry
Ridenour to the Peckenpaughs; however, my grand uncles and my grandfather
remembered their grandfather's accounts of visiting the Peckenpaughs in
Kentucky on the Ohio River, and the bear hunts on the Blue River in Indiana.
According to this tradition, Peter Peckenpaugh, father of Peter Peckenpaugh,
married Barbara Ridenour. She was a sister of my great great grandfather. There
is no documentary evidence for my statement. Henry Ridenour, my great great
grandfather, was son of Henry Ridenour of Pennsylvania. He had several
brothers and sisters.
_______________________________________________________________________________
7. Descendants of Johann Adam & Anna Maria Beckenbach extract: (p 139-40) Peter
Peckenpaugh was included in the first Grand Jury impaneled in Breckinridge Co,
Monday, Apr 21, 1800. Page 9 of History and Legend of Breckinridge Co, KY, by
Bill Thomspon.
The History of Crawford County 1818-1926. H.H. Pleasant has several
references to him, calling him "Uncle" Peter Peckinpaugh.
On p. 4, "Just how many settlers were in the county, in 1818, one can not
now say, but there must have been a large number. Uncle Peter Peckinpaugh
located in the Big Bottom, near Cape Sandy, about 1806, but fearing Indians he
moved back to Kentucky and did not return for several years." On p. 160, this
is elaborated, "One of the most interesting stories told in those old days,
was known as Peckinpaugh's Indian story. Uncle Peter Peckinpaugh, who had moved
to southern Indiana about 1806, built a cabin near Cape Sanday on the Ohio
River, and was living there by himself. He had a large sugar camp open and
was making sugar. The pots were boiling well, the sun had set, and all the land
was dark. Uncle Peter sat in an easy seat, smoking his pipe and watching the
syrup boil. Suddenly, the syrup caught fire and burned up. Uncle Peter took
that as an ill omen and fled to his cabin. When morning came, he returned and
found such a sight as he had never seen before. There were moccasin tracks all
around the pots where the Indians had been licking the syrup and drinking the
sap in the other vessels."
On p. 162, "The writer's father was working for Uncle Peter Peckinpaugh
when he was a boy of about the age of 10 years. Once, after they had gone to
bed, something raised a terrible disturbance down at the hog pen, where his old
sow had a litter of pigs. He turned hiw wolf dogs loose and seized his hand
spike and ran down to the pen. When he arrived, the two largest dogs had caught
a wild animal of some kind. Old Uncle Peter watched his chance, and when one
dog had hold of its hips, he was able to strike down between the dogs, and
broke the varmint's back. It was easily dispatched then. When he brought a
light from the house, he examined the animal, and found that it was a large
panther measuring eight feet from the end of it's tail to its nose."
This episode may have taken place after Peter and Barbara's family was
grown and gone. They are not found in the 1830 census of Crawford Co, Ind. A
deed dated 24 Oct 1830, and recorded 10 Sep 1831, Deed Bk A, pp 418 and 419,
transfers an 80 acre tract of land, in Crawford Co, Ind. to Michael Cryder.
The land was the east half of the southwest quarter of section 11, township 3,
south of Range 1 West. It was patented to Peter 29 Jul 1803, it being "part of
the land directed to be sold at Vincennes." The purchase price was not given,
but it sold, in 1830, for $300.
This deed was signed by both Peter and Barbara, as we know that both were
living at this time.
A complete list of lands owned by Peter and Barbara has not been made, but
the Breckinridge Co, Deed index 1800-1889, shows the following deeds made in
Kentucky:
Book Page
A 2 Peckinpaugh & wife George Claycomb 138 A
19 .. Peter et al Mary Conuch (?) 2 lotts
146 .. .. Adam Bruner & wife 100 A
B 31 .. .. Philip Faber (Tabor?) 100 A

140 .. .. Adam Bruner & wife 100 A
286 .. .. Richard Bibb 300 A
319 .. .. .. 100 A
D 479 .. .. Michael Bruner
The second deed listed was scanned. It was dated 12 Feb 1801 and
transferred 2 lots in Hardinsburg, #'s 10 and 16, to Mary Cornick. The grantors
were Peter, and wife, Barbara. Ther is nothing to indicate the identity of Mary
Cornick.
By 1815, deeds to Breckinridge Co, Ky land refer to Peter and Barbara as
being of Perry Co, Ind. Crawford Co, Ind was not formed till 1818. Some tracts
in Kentucky are described as being on Hardin Creek, now called Sugar Camp
Creek, and on Dorritt's Creek, "next to land owned by Adam and Elizabeth (Rice)
Bruner."
Peter and Barbara have not been found in the census of 1830, but several
of their children were in the 1830, and 1840 Vermillion Co, Ind, census
records. It may be that Peter and Barbara spent their last days with one or
another of their children.
