Anthony (Jacob)(Henckel) Hinkle, III
{62}
(1735-1815)
Anthony Hinkle III was four years of age when his father sold his portion of the ancestral homestead at New Hanover and removed to Germantown where he settled on Lot 2 on Cresheim Rd.
After 1756, he probably remained in Germantown working as a joiner or carpenter as his four older children have their births and baptisms recorded in St. Michael's Luthern Church records. He was a resident of Philadelphia Co, (Germantown) when a settlement of Wendel Zwecker's estate was made on Sept. 27, 1764.
It is said that the records of Anthony Hinkle III were very illusive, but that he had purchased lots at Sunbury Co. seat of what is now Northumberland Co, Penn. in the year 1772. No record of sale is found. It is listed that he moved to New Design, now New Holland, Lancaster Co. when Henckels' wife's mother died in June 1772- She willed her home to her daughter, Mars. Magdelena Hinkle, which she and her family soon occupied.
Shortly after the close of the Rev. War conflict, he removed with his family, with the exception of his son Joseph, to what was then Abbotts Creek, Rowan Co. NC (now Davidson Co, NC). His entire family together with five of his brothers, Charles, Peter, Michael, Henry, and Benjamin also migrated to this district. Land grant records will show that by 1790 all six families were fully established on the waters of Abbotts Creek. Grants entered in 1780 and issued in 1783 were surveyed quoting his lines. There he lived and died, but his sons migrated to Tenn. and to Kentucky, then later to Ohio and Indiana.
Records taken from Saunder's Colonial records of North Carolina (Book 10 pp. 851, 853, 854, & 855)

NAME CHANGE from HENCKEL to HINKLE-
It has been noted the emigrant ancestor, Reverend Anthony Jacob Henckel, had changed the spelling of the name to Henkel used by his sons including Jacob Anthony II. It remained for his son Anthony III to again change the name, this time to Hinkle, probably the first to adopt this spelling which seems to be more universally used in recent generations. It is also evident that the Henkel parents bestowed on their chidlren two or more Christian names. An old inventory list in Rowan Co, NC, the later home of Anthony III, was found with the endorsement on the back of the document of "Ant Ja Hinkle." This would indicate that Anthony III may have been named for the grandfather Rev. Anthony Jacob Henckel.

Another account for Anthony Hinkle of interest-Anthony Jacob Hinkle III was born in New Hanover, Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania, September 10, 1735. He married Maria Elizabeth Magdalena Zwecker in Germantown, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, April 19, 1756 in St Michael Evangelical Lutheran Church. Witnesses were Wendel Zwicker, Jung Huht, Johannes Henkel, John Conrad and William Levering. Maria was born in New Hanover, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, August 2, 1738. Her father was Wendle Zwecker born in Germany May 4, 1702 and died 1763 in Lancaster Co Pa He married his wife, Margaretha in 1722. They arrived in America on Oct, 1737 aboard the "Townshead" (Capt Thompson) from Amsterdam. Wendle Zwecker is said to have been the father of nine children, but six must have died. The three remaining children are Nathaniel, who gained the old homestead, Elizabeth, wife of Michael Oberlin, and Maria Magdelena.
Anthony lived near Germantown until after 1750, then went to Rowan Co. NC with his uncle John Justus Henkel party, but returned to Philadelphia Co. before 1760 on account of "indian depredations" in the North Carolina. When Margaretta Zwicker died in June 1772, she willed her home in New Design (New Holland) to her daughter, Magdelena Hinkle which they soon occupied. During the War this was their home. Waggoning between NC and PA seems to have been the main business of Anthony III, his sons Wendel and Nathan and his brothers Charles, Peter, Henry, Benjamin, and Michael. All of them were located in Rowan County and on Abbot Creek except Benjamin and Michael who bought land on Dutchman Creek. In both the Records of the Moravians and the PA archives there are references to the Hinkle Wagons carrying supplies and letters, and during the Revolutionary War they carried Army supplies as well.
Anthony died in Abbott Creek, Rowan, North Carolina in 1814.
