As received by e-mail in February, 2000:
"I happened upon your website the other day, and noticed that you had a William Kehres listed. I am sending you some information which was given to me from a Leitzel relative. My Grandfather was Fred Kehres, and my grandmother was Irene Leitzel. -- Sharon Blankenship (Glassygal@aol.com). PS. I had to scan this from paper, so there may be some typo's that I didn't catch and fix.
"FRANKLIN L. KEHRES, of Rebuck, is engaged as a merchant, hotel- keeper and farmer carrying on a business established by his grand father many years ago. He has the leading story and hotel at the place. Mr. Kehres was born in Washington township, where he has passed all his life, Nov. 30, 1857, son of Nathan F. and Catharine (Hoffman) Kehres. He belongs to an old family of this region, his father and grandfather having lived in Washington township, and, bear a name which, in various forms, is now numerously represented in Pennsylvania. The original form was Gehres, and the branches of the family found in Berks and Schuylkill counties, and in the Shamokin region, still retain that spelling as the variation Gehris- William Kehres, grandfather of Franklin L. Kehres, made the change from 'G' to 'K' which has been followed by his posterity.
"John Gehres, the emigrant ancestor of this family, is said to have come from Germany, and at first located in Berks county; Pa., whence be moved across the Blue Mountains into Schuylkill county settling in the Deep Creek Valley, where he owned land. He died in 1820, and his wife, whose maiden name was Catharine Otto, survived him over fifty years, dying in April, 1873, at the advanced age of ninety-three. They were of the German Reformed faith, and are buried side by side at the Deep Creek Church. They had seven children, namely: John is mentioned below; William is mentioned below; Betty married John Bressler and they lived in Deep Creek Valley; Sallie married David Stutzman; Maricha married Michael Stutztnan, who was killed in the Civil war; Catherine married a Mr. Warfel and they lived in Deep Creek Valley (their son is a prominent Minister of the United Evangelical Association); Mrs.Ossman and her husband were members of the United Evangelical Association and moved to Iowa. John Gehres, son of John and Catharine (Otto) Gehres, located at the upper end of the Deep Creek Valley in Schuylkill county, and was a farmer by occupation. After his retirement, being advanced in years, he made his home with his children for a number of years before his death, which occurred in 1908, when he was ninety-six years old, while he was living with a married daughter in Berks county. He was twice married, and survived both his wives, one of whom was a Reed.
"Among his seventeen children were: Sarah, Lovina, Carolina, Lydia, Emanuel (of Upper Mahantango Valley), Daniel (of Shamokin, Pa.) and Mrs. Haupt (who lives at Mount Cannel Pa.). A number of the posterity of this John Gehres have lived in Berks and Lehigh counties, some now (I 9 1 0) residing in Hamburg, Berks county, and one Milton Gehres, who formerly taught school in Berks county, now holds a responsible government position at Washington, D.C. This branch of the family adhere to the original spelling of the name. William Kehres, son of John and Catharine (Otto), bom April 5, 1808, was but twelve years old when his father died. He lived in Washington township, Northumberland county, where he was active throughout a long life, 'in his earlier manhood following fanning exclusively and later building the Kehres mill, on Greenbrier creek, which he operated for many years besides following agricultural pursuits. This mill was continued in operation until about 1893. His farm consisted of about 160 acres. Mr. Kehres was an early settler at Rebuck, where he was one of the first merchants, being succeeded as such by his son Nathan. He died March 3, 1891, and he and both his wives are buried at the Himmel Church.
"Mr. Kehres first married, April 26, 1831, Lydia Erdman, who was bom July 4, 1812, and died Sept. 14, 1834. They had four children: George F., born Sept. 19, 1831, whose wife Sarah, born Nov. 1, 1828, died March 21, 1885; Nathan F., born Sept. 29, 1832; William F., born Aug. 1, 1834; and Lydia, who died young. On Oct. 4, 1835, Mr. Kehres married (second) Catharine Erdman (a sister of his first wife), who was born May 25, 1818, and died July 8, 1895.
