Biography

Margaret (—?—) married George RENICK circa 1700; based on Abingdon Church records and the birth of their first child.

On 7 Mar 1728, Margaret and George were excommunicated from the Abington Church for breach of covenant and causing divisions within the church (quote): "And likewise ye said Rennick's wife, and his son Wm. Rennick and his wife, also his son-in-law Robert Poke confederates in the same obstinacy with ye said Rennick." The General Synod later ruled that "said appellants shall be absolved from the aforesaid sentence, and so be free to join with what Congregation they please."[1]

Research Notes

In 1714, a George and Martha Renick were members of the Abington Twp Presbyterian Church along with a Sara Renick. Whether this was the same George or perhaps his son is unclear. George did NOT have a brother named Thomas, as some researchers (including Egle) suggest.[2]

Dugan-672 is probably the same person as Margaret Unknown-529399 known wife of the immigrant George Renick. The Dugan surname is unproven, though the wife of William2 (George1) was probably Mary Dugan-673. All very confusing. Please merge Dugan-672 and Unknown-529399. Given name should be Margaret, husband is George1.
