Henry Sprenkle
Birth: 1741 Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, USA
Death: 1814 (aged 72œ73) Shenandoah County, Virginia, USA
Burial: Burial Details Unknown

Memorial #: 37901430
Bio: Note that Henry's years of birth & death are estimated.

Henry Sprenkle was the son of William (Wilhelm) Sprenkel (Sprengel, Sprenckel) & Anna Catharina "Catharina" Ehrhard (also various spellings) .

IMPORTANT NOTE: You will notice memorials on Find A Grave for Henry's parents William and Catharina. Keep in mind, we do not know when William and Catharina died or where they are buried. We only know when William's will was written and probated. There is a Catherine Springle enumerated in York Borough on the 1790 census; this may be the widowed Catharina.

More importantly, we have no documentation to prove the names of William's parents, which you will see on many trees on the internet and on Find A Grave. Do not add any generations beyond William to your family tree.

Henry's father William's will lists the following children in this order and with these spellings: "William Sprenckel, Henry Sprenckel, Peter Sprenckel, Jacob Sprenckel, Daniel Sprenckel, Margaret, the Wife of Tobias Hendricks, Elizabeth Wife of John Bushong, Catharine, Wife of George Long, Sharlotte, Wife of Nicholas Zin, Anna Sprenckel, Eva, Wife of Abraham Immel and Mary the Wife of Martin Schröder ."

Of all of William's sons, Henry is the most mysterious. While his brothers served in the Revolutionary War, there is no evidence that Henry participated.

The best documentation we have located for Henry is in the VA personal propery tax records. He first appears in Berkeley Co. in 1782, then 1783-1786 in Frederick Co., VA, and then in Winchester Town in 1787. He is included in the Shenandoah Co. personal property tax records from 1788 through 1813.

Then in 1814, Mary appears in his place. We assume he died 1813-1814, which meshes with his youngest child's birth in Apr 1814. Mary continued to be taxed in Shenandoah Co. through 1816. Son Absalom's death notice in "The Highland Weekly News" stated that the family moved from Virginia to Highland Co. , OH in 1816. In 1820, Mary is enumerated as head of household in Highland Co., OH. The only census Henry appears on by name is the 1810 census in Shenandoah Co.

We know that Henry was first married to a Catharina, as there are baptismal records for children in York Co., PA. Family legend is that Henry married 3 times and was the father of 21 children. As we can account for 17 children, that's certainly possible. We have found no marriage records.

We can identify Henry & Mary's children, as they all lived in Highland & Adams Co., OH and their descendants remained in contact over the generations. We cannot determine the mother(s) of all of Henry's older children, but we have "assigned" all of them to Catharina.

Thus, we have the following tentative list of children for Henry & Catharina (not all are proven to be Catharina's children): Mary (Walper, Engel); Catharina; Peter; Henry; Elizabeth (Darnhafer, Chambers); Jacob; & William.

Henry & Mary's children are: Mary (Stults); Absolom; Solomon; Sarah (Hiestand); Susannah (Hampshire); Samuel; Elizabeth (Wirt); David; Jesse; & Lydia (Larkins).
