ST. MICHAEL'S LUTHERAN CHURCH - REV. ANTHONY JACOB HENCKEL

Rev. Anthonius Jacobus/Anthony Jacob Henckel 

was baptised on December 27th, 1668. 

In 1717, he brought his entire family to America; bought a farm at New Hanover and served several Lutheran congregations of the area as well as the congregation in Germantown. 

It is believed that he was the first pastor of the congregation here in Germantown.  

He died in the home of one of the members on August 12, 1728 after falling from his horse while traveling between Germantown and his home at New Hanover. 

I was not able to find this marker and this is the only photo in this blog post that was not taken by me.

(from- http://www.stmichaelsgermantown.org/?page_id=15)

His wife, Maria Elizabeth Dentzer Henckel was buried in 1744 and is one of the oldest legible stone marker in the church cemetery.

I happened to catch two church members 

in the church and they allowed us to view 

the inside for a quick few minutes. 

The inside photos were rushed and fuzzy.
