"Rev. Anthony Jacob Henkel (known in history as Rev. Gerhart Henkel), an exiled Lutheran clergyman who came from Germany to Pennsylvania in 1717; one of the founders of his church in America, and father of a great and honorable posterity. They were Palatine Germans.

"The first Henchel to come to America was Rev Anthony Jacob Henchel. About the time of the unbearable religious persecution in Germany, William Penn had become head of a Colony in the new world, designated as Penn's Woods (Pennsylvania). He needed hard working, responsible colonists to help him develop this colony so he could meet the revenues required by the Crown (English Government). Penn, able to speak German, went to Frankfort and personally invited these persecuted Lutherans to come to his colony. Rev Henckel, pastor of the Lutherans, and in conflict with the Catholic Authorities, decided to resign and join with his neighbors in 1717 to go to the new world. Here, he resumed his pastoral duties and with his family became a leader in the religious and cultural life of the colony."

Gerhart Henkel), an exiled Lutheran clergyman who came from Germany to Pennsylvania in 1717, one of the founders of his church in America and father of a great and honorable posterity : also to collect and preserve the history of his worthy descendants https://archive.org/details/henkelmemorialhi00henk


Rev. Anthony Jacob HENKEL was baptized on 27 Oct 1668 in Mehrenburg, Germany and died on 17 Aug 1728 in Germantown, Pennsylvania. Anthonius Jacobus Henckel was part of the German migration encouraged by William Penn in an effort to get settlers for his new colony. There is speculation also that his emigration was motivated by his conflicts with the Catholic Church in Germany.

Rev. Jacob Anthony Henkel, who came to America in 1718, was a descendant of Count Henkel von Donnersmark; Rev. Jacob Anthony Henkel was instrumental in bringing to America the famous Rev. Peter Muhlenburg, who descended from the Henkel family. Rev. Peter Muhlenburg was a Major-General in the Revolutionary War, and as such gained much renown. Most every school boy knows the story of how Rev. Peter Muhlenburg, pastor of the Lutheran Church at Woodstock, Virginia, clad in his long black silk clerical gown, preached a patriotic sermon to his people, and then opening his robe, disclosed a Colonel's uniform underneath. Laying the robe aside, he said: "The time to fight has come." He enlisted over a hundred of his congregation in the service of his adopted country.

Out of love for the Henkel family, from which Peter Muhlenburg descended, he gave the robe to the student, Rev. Paul Henkel, asking that it remain in the ministerial line of the Henkel family. From Rev. Paul, the robe went to his oldest son; then to another son, Rev. Andrew Henkel; from Rev. Andrew Henkel to his nephew, Rev. Socrates Henkel, D.D., whose mother was Katherine Hoyl, dau. of "Politician Peter" Hoyl, of Lincoln County, N.C.


Count Henkel von Donnersmark was a descendant of Rev. Johann Henkel, D.D., LL. D., b. in Leutchau, Hungary, and a Protestant Chaplain appointed by the great Reformer, Martin Luther, and was sent to Queen Maria Theresa of Austria-Hungary, at her request. Maria was the mother of the beautiful, but ill-starred Maria Antoinette, who m. Louis XVI of France, and was guillotined, Oct. 16, 1793, during the French Revolution.

In his will Anthony Jacob Henckel left to his two youngest sons, John Justus and Anthony Jacob, the 250-acre home farm in New Hanover Township, then in Philadelphia County, now Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. John Justus' share was 150 acres. In about 1730, John Justus married Maria Magdalena Eschmann, daughter of Abraham and Elizabeth Eschmann of German-Swiss origin, and settled on a farm near Macungie Creek, now Lehigh County, Pennsylvania, paying taxes as late as 1748 in Pennsylvania.

By 1750 he sold his property in Pennsylvania and made the long journey down the mountain valleys from Pennsylvania into North Carolina. In 1751 he was living on Dutchman's Creek in the Fork of the Yadkin, approzimately 13 miles from Salisbury, Rowan County, now Davidson County, North Carolina. He and his family lived there until danger from Indians prompted him to move his wife and twelve children to what is now Germany Valley, Pendleton County, West Virginia. Their new land was near the Shawnee Indian Trail, so there the family built a log fort for protection in 1761-62, the site of which can still be seen today. John Justus, his sons, and his sons-in-law participated actively in the defense of the frontier during the Revolutionary War and furnished supplies for the Continental forces. The Hinkle Fort farm became the headquarters and training grounds of the North Fork Battalion.

Anton (Anthony) Jacob Henckel

Anton (Anthony) Jacob Henckel was baptized in Germany October 27, 1668, was ordained as a Lutheran pastor February 28,1692 at Eschelbron, Germany and was from the northern region Kraichgau area east of Heidelberg where he had served 25 years as a pastor with various congregations.. He gave his last service in Germany June 3, 1717 and then migrated to Philadelphia Pennsylvania. He was almost fifty when he arrived in Philadelphia. He was probably responsible for organizing the first Lutheran congregations in Pennsylvania. It is said he founded what is now St. Michael's Lutheran Church in Germantown, Pennsylvania.

St Michael's Lutheran Church is at the southeast corner of Main and Philellena streets in Germantown. It was founded in the early 1700's.. In 1746, the work of considerably enlarging the church was begun. Pews were placed in it in 1750. In 1752, a parsonage was bought. The present building is the third successive one that has occupied the site. During the Revolutionary War, the parsonage was seized by the British and the organ was destroyed. It is said the soldiers were running along the streets blowing on the pipes.

Anthony Henckel lived at Falckner's Swamp in today's Montgomery County, PA and served the German communities throughout present-day Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties. He preached occasionally at the Old Trappe Church near Valley Forge PA.

From Mr. B. Burt Bark, who was a Vice-President of the University of Washington and was also President of the Henckel Family Association.

New Information

Anthony Jacob Henckel, son of George Henckel and Eulalia Dentzer, was born and baptized in Merenberg, in Palatinate. His baptismal record, on December 27th, 1668, has been found in the church at Merenberg. George Henckel, preceptor or schoolmaster, at Merenberg, was a graduate of the University at Glessen. His wife was the daughter of an assistant judge of Steinberg, and was descended from a family prominent in Hesse-Darmstadt; her grandfather had been a pastor, and three of her brothers were pastors. The father died in 1768.

Anthony Jacob Henckel was matriculated at Giessen on May 5, 1688.

In 1692 he left the following record in his first parish: The Church book of Eschelbronn.

His Highness, the nobly born Baron John Anton of the Feltz, together with his brother, Herr Philipp, has called me, Anthony Jacob Henckel, of Merenberg in Nassau, after the death of my predecessor, to the regular pastorate of Eschelbronn, and I was ordained here on the 28th of February by Herr John Christopher Wildius, Pastor of Hoffheim, after having been examined at Giessen University, and having the testimony thereof."

He served here until 1695; then at Daudenzell and Breitenbronn until 1714. The former of these places was in Darmstadt, the latter in the Palatinate. In 1714 he returned to Moenchzell, which had been a "filial" of his first pastorate. He came to America in 1717 with his entire family; and bought a farm at New Hanover, living there until his death in 1728.

Pastor Henckel’s ministry in America was far-reaching rather than intensive. He seems to have served the scattered Lutherans in many places, as occasion arose, but without leaving definite record of this service in the scattered congregations. There is a tradition that his authority, as a foreigner, to perform the marriage ceremony, was questioned and that he was put in jail in Philadelphia, pending decision; the family tells of silverware given as bail for him. The question was submitted by the Colonial Council, but there is no record of any decision returned. His ministry in Germantown is definite enough that we may say that he undoubtedly the first pastor of the congregation here. He died in the home of one of the members, in Springfield, on August 12, 1728, following a fall from his horse while traveling between Germantown and his home at New Hanover. Two of the witnesses to his will appear in the very earliest documents of the congregation as members of the Church Council; and we surmise that they were already members of such a body in 1728.
