David Kline 1833-1906

[edit] NOT A DIRECT ANCESTOR

David Kline is not in my direct ancestry. He is a member of the Philip Wendel Klein family:

Philip Wendel Klein immigrated to America in 1744 on the same ship "Phoenix" with our ancestor Johannes Klein, and both settled in what became Lehigh Co. PA. We expect they were either brothers or cousins.Descendants of both migrated west to Clarion Co. PA

  • p. 290. Peter Klein, a native of Germany, settled in Weisenberg, adjoining the family of Grim. About 1800 he purchased a tract of land of Michael Mosser, which was warranted by John Deter Bouman. His son, Lorentz, moved upon this land, stayed a few years, and returned home. John Jacob Klein, a younger brother, married Susanna, a daughter of Peter Gross, of Whitehall township, and settled upon this farm about the year 1806. He lived upon it all his days, and died there. His sons were Jonathan, Charles, Joseph, Samuel, David, and Solomon. Jonathan and Samuel settled near Laury's Station, where they died. Charles settled in Weissenberg, on the homestead of his grandfather. Joseph settled in the upper part of the township, and rebuilt the old Fenstermacher mill in 1848. He lived at the place seventeen years, and then moved to Allentown, where he now resides. David settled on the homestead, and remained there ten years, and moved to North Whitehall, where he now lives.

  • By phone on 12 Aug 2008, John Whitehouse confirmed that the David Kline of Clarion County PA is a descendant of Philip Wendel Klein. These are John Whitehouse's direct line ancestors. His mother, grandfather and great-aunt contributed family papers and knowledge to his research. David Kline b. 1833, (son of David Klein b. 1808), was the great-grandfather of John Whitehouse.
  • David Kline (b.1833) "crossed the mountains on a mule", going west (apparently as a young child in company of his mother and step-father).
  • Photo of David Kline, in the collection of John Whitehouse, has the following written on the back:
    "Picture taken just before he died of heart failure after his leg was amputated on the kitchen table". John Whitehouse says: I understand it was injured and developed gangrene.
  • Re Minnie Kline, posted comment on KeystoneCorner: "Minnie May Kline was born 20 Dec. 1875, married Thomas I Fulmer 16 Oct. 1901. They had one son Otis Kline Fulmer born in 1904. My Aunt Minnie did the Kline family tree in order to join the D.A.R. and eventually I (John Whitehouse) got her papers from my mother and grandfather (Reba Kline Whitehouse and Dr. L. C. Kline). I have updated the tree some and have the Philip Wendel Kline tree back to 1744. When Minnie died she was living in Ohio.
