Research Notes
Note NI0049Family name originally spelled Frey, but her son Peter Binkley's Bible shows she was a Fry and her first name was spelled with the middle -e-, Catherine.
Alt. b. 1 Sep 1808, d. 5 Jan 1875, per www.sineart.comhersheygend70.htm.
Transcriptions of the gravestone differ between 5 and 6 Jan 1875.
Names of her children from material provided by Deborah Binkley Giambalvo in 2000.
Not sure this is her correct father and mother - it's the only Peter I could find for this date. Annette Stewart also says she was daughter of a Peter Fry.
The Indian Town Tract, where she has been reported born, was just west of the farm where Zephaniah Binkley was born and died.
Obit appeared in the Mennonite newspaper Herald of Truth - Vol XII, Nr 3 - March 1875, pp. 46, 47 - online at http:/www.mcusa-archives.org/MennObits/1875ht75mar.html:
"Jan. 5th, Sister CATHARINE Binkley , of Manor Tp., aged 66 years, 3 months and 15 days. Sister Binkley was a faithful member of our church.".
Catharine was born in 1808. She passed away in 1875. [6]
