Biography

Daniel was born in 1794, the daughter of Conrad Hentzel (1755 - 1842). Daniel was the husband of Christina Reed Hensel (1802 - 1886). Their children included:

  • Adam Hensel (1825 - 1887)
  • Eve Hensel Waitman (1828 - 1915)
  • Elizabeth Hensel Overmyer (1830 - 1918)
  • Sarah Etta Hensel Kessler (1833 - 1923)
  • Daniel Hensel Jr. (1836 - 1918)

He passed away in 1842, and was buried at Four Mile House Cemetery, Fremont, Sandusky County, Ohio.[1] His memorial gravestone is inscribed:

DANIEL HENSEL
DIED
MAR. 29, 1842,
AGE 48 Y. 1 M. 13 D.

Daniel's DOB should be about February 16, 1794, given his gravestone inscription above. His church baptism record says he was baptized on April 20, 1794.[2]

From Wikipedia entry for Berks County, Pennsylvania: "Berks County began much larger than it is today. The northwestern parts of the county went to the founding of Northumberland County in 1772." This explains why some records for Daniel Hensel Senior refer to Berks County, and others to Northumberland County.
