BENNIGHOFF FAMILY.

The Bennighoff family of Lehigh county was founded by Valentine Bennighoff, whose name is recorded in the Pennsylvania Archives as hav- ing emigrated on the ship Edinburgh, which land- ed at Philadelphia Sept. 16, 1751, and shortly afterward he settled in Lowhill township, North- ampton county (now part of Lehigh), for he took out a land warrant for 32 acres in that dis- trict which is dated April 22, 1752.

In 1812, the names of John Bennighoff and Sebastian Bennighoff appear on the assessment list of Lynn township, and both of these men are buried in the cemetery at New Tripoli.

A branch of this family settled in Berks county, for in 1800 the name of Philip Bennighoff ap- pears on the tax list of Albany township, and in 1815, in the same district, the name of William Bennighoff.

Peter Bennighoff, of this family, a farmer, was located in Greenwich township, Berks county. His wife was Polly Haring and they had three sons, William, Benjamin and Peter, and a daugh- ter, Abby, married to Charles Eck. Benjamin, one of the three sons named, was born Jan. 23, 1818, and died April 28, 1884. He was a weaver by trade and also carried on farming, having owned a farm in the township named near the Roth school-house containing 70 acres. His wife was Sarah Spohn and they had nine children : Noah ( 1842-1907, supervisor of Max- atawny township for 21 years) ; Mary, married to Abraham Geist; Sarah, married to Henry Derr; Benjamin, resided at Claussville; Moses ; Emma; and William; and two others who died young.

John (Johannes) Bennighoff, the ancestor of most of this family name in Lynn township, Le- high county, was born Dec. 27, 1768, and he died on his farm near New Tripoli, Jan. 23, 1845. He was a wood-worker of rare ability and this came to be transmitted to some of his sons and grandsons. He made wooden plows and harrows, by the aid of which the pioneer settlers tilled the soil. His wife was Elizabeth Daubert, born May 1, 1777, died Jan. 11, 1858, and buried at New Tripoli, and they had a large family of children, among them the following: Heinrich, Daniel, Isaac, John, and Mrs. Catharine Herman, who moved West.

Heinrich Bennighoff was born in Lynn town- ship about the year 1805 and under his father he came to be an exceptionally able wood-worker in making wagons, plows, harrows, rakes, forks and cradles. When thirty years old he had ac- cumulated the sum of $200, and by the aid of this money he moved by team with his family to Seneca county, in Ohio, and there he lived as

a wood-worker and farmer until he died. His brother, John, went along with him to take back the horses to Lehigh county which he had hired for the occasion.

He was married to Phillipina Fenstermacher, daughter of Jacob and Catharine (Derr) Fen- stermacher, of Lynn township, and they had a number of children.

Daniel Bennighoff was a farmer of Lynn town- ship, his farm being now in the possession of his son Aaron; and he was also an experienced and successful woodworker having made many wagons which were said to have been the best in that section of the county.

He owned part of his fa- ther's homestead near Mosserville and was a successful farmer, having left an estate at his decease valued at $30,000. His favorite nephew was Franklin Bennighoff, son of his brother Dan- iel, who farmed for him for a period of thirty- three years in a most faithful manner and before he died (1891) he sold the farm to this nephew at a reasonable price in appreciation of his long- continued services. He was buried at New Trip- oli. He was married to Sarah Sensinger, now the oldest surviving person in Lynn township, having been born Aug. 29, 1814, and being 98 years old. She continues to live on the old home- stead and is well cared for by her nephew, Frank- lin Bennighoff. They had no children.

Feb. 24, 1843, and learned the trade of wheel- wright under his father, which he followed for some time; then he engaged at farming for his uncle Isaac, and continued doing so for thirty- three years, when he was encouraged by his uncle to buy the place, who offered it to him at a reason- able price. This was in 1891. The barn was built by John Bennighoff shortly before he died, to take the place of the first building which was struck by lightning and burned to the ground. The dwelling house has a year mark, 1837, cut on a stone which is set in the chimney to show when it was built, and this was also by John Bennighoff.

In 1868, he married Leanna Zellner, daughter of Daniel. She died in 1882, aged 36 years.
