BIOGRAPHY: Biographical Sketch
Francis Wykert, son of Frantz and Elizabetha Shaefer Weickert, was born on 6 Dec 1785 in Reading, Berks County, Pennsylvania. He was baptized in the Reformed Church of the Schwarzwald by Rev. William Boos, in Berks County, PA. His family moved to Washington Co., PA and finally to Marshall Co. (W)VA.

Francis Wykert (aka Francis Wicherd) married Nancy Ann Yoho, daughter of Henry and Catherine Baker Yoho, 5 Jul 1810 in Belmont Co., OH (Book ?, page 41). Nancy Ann was born ca. 1790 in Marshall Co., (W)VA. Francis and Nancy Ann were the parents of eleven children. They owned land in Tyler County (W)VA from 1820 to 1831 (now Wetzel Co., WV).

The family moved to Burlington, Des Moines Co., IA in 1838, taking a boat at Wells Landing (Wellsburg, WV?) going down the river to Cincinnati and St. Louis and then up to Burlington.

They first settled in the wilderness where the only sounds were the howl of the wolf and whoop of the Indians. Francis Wykert purchased eighty acres in Burlington Twp. from the government. There he built an 18 x 20 log cabin. His thrift and industry bore fruits and two years later he was able to add to his real estate. This he sold at a profit.

In 1840 he purchased 200 acres in Louisa County, Iowa. This became one of the best farms in the country.

Nancy Wykert died in Louisa Co., IA in 1841. Francis Wykert died in Louisa Co., IA on 9 Dec 1845.

Notes (Individual)
General:
Grace Florence Suter

AKA: Her birth name was Gracie, she later went by Grace.

RESEARCHER:
Grace Florence (Suter) Schafer was very interested in genealogy. She put together "Tisher Family - Came to America from Switzerland in 1819," which is available on film from the LDS library in Salt Lake City, UT.

Grace Schafer was living in Hannibal, OH, as of Nov 1970, when she encouraged Catherine Foreaker Fedorchak to write a series of articles about Henthorn family research in her column, "Family Research in Monroe County," which appeared in "The Spirit of Democracy," at Woodsfield, OH beginning on 19 Nov 1970.

Grace (Suter) Schafer lived in the house built by Dr. Nimrod Evans Henthorn in Hannibal, OH. The middle portion of the house was of log construction.


Grace Schafer wrote the following item to "The Spirit of Democracy," on 4 Apr 1968.

Which Adam Henthorn?

While looking through Volume III of "Monroe County Ohio Records," by Catherine Foreaker Fedorchak, I noticed at the time of her writing she was confused with two Adam Henthorn names. One Adam was born in 1780, the other in 1781.

The first James Henthorn, who settled in what is now Clarington, OH had a brother Adam, also a son Adam. Adam, the son of James, was the brother of my great grandfather, Dr. Nimrod E. Henthorn's father, John Henthorn. He is buried with his wife Susanna Henthorn in an old vault besides his brother, John, in the Harter Cemetery north of Hannibal, OH.

My mother's cousin told me Susanna Henthorn was Susanna Hofer before marriage to old uncle Adam. He said there was a door to the vault and the Henthorns had a key and the Hofer family had one.

The Hofers took so many people in the vault it made the Henthorn relatives unhappy and they closed it up putting a marble slab in front.

The Adam Henthorn who is so near the same age as my Adam is buried in the Rutter Cemetery west of Clarington on highway 78. I hope this will make all the records right. Adam in Rutters is James' brother.

John Henthorn, mentioned above, was the same John who brought the burrs for an early mill in Monroe County from Cheat Mountains, VA., now WV. His great great grandfather was born in Ireland in 1715. Down from generation to generation there have been many Adam and John Henthorns.

[Note: Leona Harrison and Richard E. Henthorn do not agree with Mrs. Shafer's contention that the wife of Adam Henthorn was Susanna Hofer. Leona, and others, have found her will in Will Book #1. The will mentions her brother, John Risher (also seen as Rischer).]
