This particular John may not be the son of Gabriel, Jr. Ed. Note. Needs to be verified/proven.
The following information was received from Bobbie McKenzie in June, 2013. Future researchers will need to verify it if they are interested in this line.
Rosanne=eleanorrms@aol.com (need to check accuracy of email address) I have a copy of the death cert. of "Jno D. M. Mackenzie" b. 3 July 1829 in OH, and d. 22 March 1916 in IL. Gives name of father "Jno Mackenzie", born Maryland, and mother Margaret Clugston, born Maryland. The informant was my grandfather, who only went to 4th grade, maybe 6th grade in school....so the correct spelling of Clugston could have been Logsdon. Also, my grandfather's name ~ on the cert. gives an incorrect middle initial, which could indicate the person taking the info was not too careful.
John (1829) is believed to have been born in Gambier Knox Co OH.
John (1829) McKenzie is listed in the 1850 Knox Co OH census, along with
Sarah McKenzie. I have been informed they were married in 1848. John was
married more than once. Another wife, Emma Moreland, is the mother of my
grandfather.
She also has John & Margaret's marriage license record from Allegany Co, MD, their marriage record at the Catholic Church in Allegany Co, MD in 1822, their son's (John) baptism in 1829 at St. Luke Church in Danville, Knox Co, OH, Margaret's marriage to William Robeson in 1831, marriage record of the son John's marriages to Sarah Presley in 1849, to Caroline Southwick in 1852, marriage record of Joseph to Elizabeth Parker in 1862, copy of Joseph's death record in 1893.
The son John also married Emma Moreland who was in the Wash DC census 1860, age 14. I don't know when or where they married. But I found that her mother and brother were later married (not to each other :) ) in McLean Co, IL in 1872 and 1877.
Emma's sister married in Wash DC in 1862. She had another sister that I haven't been able to trace.
Re John McKenzie that married Margaret Peggy Logsdon........they got a m. license in Allegany Co. 30 Nov 1822 and were m. 3 Dec 1822 at the Catholic Church in Allegany Co., MD. There is a record of the baptism of Mary & Joseph in the book "Western Maryland Catholics 1819-1851" by Koch & Davidson. There is a record of the baptism of John (b 1829) in St Luke's Church, Danville, Knox Co. OH.
John & Sarah are in the 1850 Knox Co census. Their m. 1 Aug 1849 is in the Knox Co marriage record. She died in 1852 and he m. Caroline Southwick in 1853....also in Knox Co marriage record. Family lore.....he had a son named William before he married Emma Moreland. Don't know what happened to
Caroline, or when he married Emma. Emma was from Wash.DC. He & Emma had 4 children, John Duncan b 1869 in IL, d 1954 in IA, Margaret - never married, Louise - never married, and Jane (Jen). In the 1880 census for LaSalle Co IL he is listed as J.D. McKenzi =e with Emma McKenzie, and the 3 oldest children.
I have only looked at Knox Co in OH and not at Mahoning Co because the family seemed to stick pretty close to Mt Vernon, and stayed pretty much with the Catholic Church. When Margaret's husband died in 1829 in Knox Co she remarried a Knox Co man and stayed in the area until she died. She & her new
husband did not raise Mary, Joseph and John however......she "farmed them out" to other family/families because the new husband did not want to raise them......according to family legend.
Rosanne in NC
Also from Bobbie McKenzie in June 2013. Similar to above but with additional clues. Researchers need to verify. No contact has been made with "Roseanne" as of July, 2013.

Hi Bobbie:
John and Sarah McKenzie are in the 1850 Ohio census, Schedule I - Free Inhabitants in 1st Ward of Mt Vernon, Knox Co, the page number is difficult to read but I think it is page 233. John & Sarah are on lines 39 & 40. On June 6 someone else in Knox Co told me that John McKenzie married Sarah 1 Aug 1849, by E.T.Brown min. She died 31 July 1852, age 20 yr, 3 mon, 11 days buried Moundview Cem. Mt Vernon, OH.
Marriage # 2 = Caroline Southwick 1 Feb 1853 by Fr. Julius Brent.
Old family letters say that he was married twice.....but they may not have known of #2. John and Emma Moreland had 4 children, all born in IL. My grandfather was the oldest of the 4, and he was born in 1869. John & Emma died and are buried in Ottawa, LaSalle Co. IL.

This is as far as I have been able to go with MacKenzie names.

This Patrick M. McKenzie and Helen Elinora Lovinia Getty family has led me into an interest in the MCKENZIES of Somerset County, PA, and Allegany and Garrett Counties, MD. This is compounded by the fact that Michael Aaron MCKENZIE married Loretta MCKENZIE (1867-1904) about 1892 in LaGrange County, IN, and Loretta's ancestry also leads back to the Somerset area. Loretta's father Joseph Christian MCKENZIE (1837-1925) was from Maryland (though I have yet to confirm his ancestors), and Loretta's mother Hannah FAIR (1842-1880) traces back to Christopher FAIR (1769-1850) of Somerset County, PA, and Tuscarawas County, OH. Hannah FAIR's mother Rachel Baker (1810-1892) may be the daughter of Douglas Baker (1768-1850) and Anna Marie (or Mary Ann) GARLITZ (1772-1852), but I have yet to prove this. Douglas Baker and his family also went to Tuscarawas County, OH, from Somerset County, PA. MCKENZIEs, FAIRs, BAKERs and GARLITZes all went to LaGrange County, IN, and most or all of these families seem to have Somerset roots.
Ed. Note: I am not sure who wrote the above entry. Joseph Christian McKenzie's parents were Samuel Francis McKenzie (b. 1805) and Sarah Durbin (b. 1809).
Ed note: Michael Aaron was christened on 1 May 1853. Sponsors: Mary L. Porter and M. Slattery. Page 6. Records of St. Michael's Catholic Church. St. Michael's was established in 1852. MSA M 3743 (1852-1910). | McKenzie, Michael Aaron (I02670)

MY STORY by TOM MCKENZIE
November1994
In my early years I did man ythingswith my fathe rClarence McKenzie. We
trapped,hunted and traveled. Many times I walked 56 miles to Aunt Meg's with him
for visits or short stays. I remember my father as a teller of stories such as how to
catch horses. You pack your food and start to follow them, never stopping. Never
give them a chance to stop for a rest. Just keep going don't let them stop to sleep.
You are the man and being human you are smarter than an animal. Keep after them
night and day till they just wear down then you can just walk up to them and put a
rope around their neck and they are yours. The point of the story was that a man has
more endurance and that with proper preparation catching a horse was a simple
matter.
I have been a salesman,a plasterer,a miner,a carpenter,a builder of hotels and
housing developments. I was a self made millionaire by the age of forty-three. My
brother Harold and I developed a gold mine close to Trail and Moyier BC, from the
initial diggings and hauling of the ore to Trail for smelting to the selling of shares in
the stock market. These shares started at .35cents each and ended up at around $
7.50 per share when the project was completed.
I went to school for a total of five years, and was part of the contingent that went overseas
for WW2.

Thoughts from Scott Williams to the author. August 14, 2018:
I will share with you the reader's digest version of one of my avenues of research. There are no original source records that positively link the Porters with the McKenzies before settlement in Western Maryland. If you believe tradition and family lore, they must have been in close proximity to each other in the generation of Daniel, Gabriel, and Daniel McKenzie down in the Patapsco/Baltimore Co/Frederick County area. We have reported intermarriage between Henry Porter and a Durbin as well as the reported Porter/McKenzie intermarriages. Yet no one (including the Colonel) has found proof in the traditional resources like deeds, patents, etc. We have a few other MD Porters thereabouts, but we have all but eliminated them as suspects. There are a ton of Porters along the PA/MD border, and they are not so easily eliminated, but they all seem to be Scots-Irish Protestants - again, not fully disqualifying, but not too promising either.
This I do know (or propose as a thesis). The first positive connection in the record appears in Bedford County, PA. Sam and John McKenzie appear there in 1773, Gabriel and Sam in 1774 and again in 1775. John Porter appears on the next page from them in 1775 as a "renter". In 1776 Gabriel McKenzie and John Porter appear - and Sam appears as an "inmate" (uh-oh :)). The PA records appear to be non-existent for a few years then pick up again in 1779, when all I have is John Porter and no McKenzies. Do note, however that Gabriel, Aaron, Sam, and Daniel McKenzie take the loyalty oath over in Washington (now Allegany) County in 1778.
So my thesis is that Gabriel and sons moved westward to Bedford County PA beginning in 1772 and that this move appears to coincide with the sale of three properties in Frederick County. Gabriel and sons stay on the Bedford side of the line until 1777 or 78 when they move across the line into Maryland. John Porter appears adjacent to them in the record from 1775 to 1778 when they move - he stays in PA until around 1784 and eventually resettles in Maryland. John Porter is reported to have lived near Wellersburg PA with is 'just across the line' from the Mount Savage area - and if you have been there, you will know that it is pretty much "all the same place".
So, this puts John Porter in proximity to the McKenzies, but I need more in the way of kinship ties, etc. In the attached loyalty oath you will see all of our Catholic tribe in one place by 1778, including Henry Porter (brother of John and Moses Porter) who reportedly married a Durbin.

Excerpt from author's book The McKenzies of early Maryland:
Gabriel McKenzie
Gabriel McKenzie (1) was born in Hopson’s Choice, Baltimore County, Maryland about 1715. He married Sarah Durbin in 1742 at St. Paul’s Episcopal Church in Baltimore County, Maryland. (1.1) Together they had seven children:
1.Anne McKenzie
2.Michael McKenzie
3.Samuel McKenzie (2)
Born 1750
Married Abt. 1790 to Ellen _______
Had children Samuel F., John M., Gabriel, Sara Ann, Eleanor, Polly, Jane, Catherine, Elizabeth, Moses
Died 1837 in Allegany County, Maryland per Death Register for St. Patrick’s Church.
4.Daniel McKenzie
Born Abt. 1755
Married Mary Ann Chapman 2 DEC 1779 in Washington County, Maryland
Had children William, Richard, Samuel, Mary Ann, Daniel, Aaron and James Moses
Died 1825, Allegany County, Maryland
5.John McKenzie
Born 1765
Married Lindy (Melinda) Porter
Had children Aaron, John, Daniel, Henry, Gabriel, Samuel E., Sarah,
Mary, Marjery, and Margaret
Died 1852, Madison Co, KY
6.Aaron McKenzie
Born 1768
7.Joshua McKenzie
Born 1768
On 5 NOV 1743, Gabriel McKenzie had a survey recorded for “Gabriel’s Choice”. (4) This tract lay southwest of Westminster MD, on the west side of Mt. Airy Road, between the tracts of James and Thomas Wells. The operative words of the document stated that the land was located in Baltimore County, which given the date is consistent with the fact that Frederick County (where the land is situated today) was formed from Baltimore County and Prince George’s County in 1748. It further states that Gabriel MacKenzie (actual spelling) had received a common warrant for 100 acres of land from “His Lordship’s Land Office dated the 17 Day of March, 1742 and that Gabriel was a resident of Ann Arundell County (actual spelling). (5) The land patent itself was formally issued on the “1st Day of December 1743 by Thomas Bladen, Your Lieutenant General and Chief Governor of our said Province of Maryland, Chancellor & Keeper of the Great Seal thereof.” (6)
Per Thomas Scharf, Frederick County was not a safe place for Colonial settlers at the time Gabriel purchased and owned the property. (7) “In the French and Indian War which ensued after the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle in 1749, between England and France, Maryland became involved mainly in self-defense, and though she was to share none of its spoils, her people were destined to suffer from many of the dangers and hardships it brought in its train. Even before Braddock’s defeat bands of Indians were making forays into Frederick County burning houses and slaughtering the inhabitants, but after his disastrous overthrow on the 9th of July, 1755, and the retreat of Col. Dunbar with the remainder of the British Army to Philadelphia, the whole northern and western frontier of the province was thrown open to the Indians. Measures of defense were almost immediately adopted, but even had they sufficed for the complete protection of the wide territory to be guarded, they would scarcely have allayed the terror which had taken possession of the frontier settlers. The alarm inspired by Braddock’s defeat and by the advance of the French and Indians was so great that many inhabitants of the western settlements fled to Baltimore, and preparations were even made by the people of that town to place the women and children on board the vessels in the harbor and send them to Virginia”.
In June 1750 Gabriel sued John White for cutting down the oak trees which marked the beginning of “Gabriel’s Choice.” (8)
On 18 JUN 1754, Gabriel purchased 50 acres “Small Addition” from James (a later deed for the same property refers to the seller as John White) and Margaret White of Frederick County (Frederick County having been formed six years earlier in 1748) (9). The land was located in Frederick County and per the legal description was situated near the head of the Little Pipe Creek. The reference to “Little Pipe Creek” in both the patent for Gabriel’s Choice and in the deed for “Small Addition” suggests that the parcels may have been contiguous.
On 14 JUL 1755, Gabriel McKenzie, planter of Frederick County, and his wife Sarah deeded to Nicholas Rodgers 200 acres, part of a “Resurvey of Gabriel’s Choice”.(10).
On October 6, 1764, Gabriel MacKenzie of Frederick County secured a patent for 19 acres of land in Frederick County called Addition to Gabriel’s Choice. The recitations at the beginning of the deed/patent state as follows: “By virtue of a Warrant granted out of his Lordship’s Land Office of the Province to Daniel MacKenzie and John Logsdon of Ann Arundel County for seventy five acres of land bearing date 17th of January, 1764, which said warrant is assigned to Gabriel MacKenzie of Frederick County, etc.” Since Daniel McKenzie is not known to have had a child by the name of Gabriel, the only conclusion that can be drawn from the assignment of this patent is that Daniel McKenzie and John Logsdon were assigning a portion of their seventy five acres to Daniel’s brother, Gabriel. (10.5) The Logsdon connection is an interesting fact in view of the information set forth below that Gabriel’s wife also had a Durbin connection, since she was the daughter of Samuel Durbin and Anne (Logsdon) Durbin.
On 28 Jun 1769, Gabriel McKinsey of Frederick County sold to William Buchanan 80 acres more or less of the property known as the “Resurvey of Gabriel’s Choice”. (11) The sale price was 66 Pounds. The deed reflects that the property consisted of a portion of the “Resurvey of Gabriel’s Choice” which was patented to Gabriel on the twenty third day of July, 1755. The deed further reflected that Sarah McKinsey, wife of Gabriel, had released her dower rights after having been examined out of the presence of her husband and did so “freely and voluntarily not being induced or compelled thereto by any threats of or ill usage from her said husband or fear of his displeasure.”
Sarah McKenzie apparently was the first child of Samuel and Ann (Logsdon) Durbin. She was born September 19, 1724 in a log cabin near Westminister, Maryland. (12)
On 7 APR 1772, Gabriel McKenzie sold three parcels of land in Frederick County totaling 147 acres to George Devilbess for the sum of 310 Pounds. (13) The three tracts included: (1) part of the original tract of “Gabriel’s Choice” and part of the “Resurvey of Gabriel’s Choice” (78 acres), (2) the “Small Addition” originally conveyed by John (sic) White to Gabriel in 1754 (50 acres) and which contains the reference to the “head of Little Pipe Creek” as referenced above and (3) a final tract entitled “Addition to Gabriel’s Choice”. Gabriel was listed as being a farmer residing in Frederick County, which coincides with the time line established by the Oath of Fidelity that Gabriel took in Washington County in 1778.
On 6 AUG 1785 Gabriel MacKinzie of Washington County (13.1) sold to Henry Hoover a parcel of property located in Frederick County called “Mount Pleasant” containing 47 acres. (14) The legal description reflected that the beginning of metes and bounds description began at the end of the “fifteenth line of Gabriel’s Choice” and ran from that location. The deed reflected that Sarah once again relinquished her dower rights. One of the Justices of the Peace who acknowledged the deed was Andrew Bruce, who during the Revolutionary War, administered the Oath of Fidelity (15) (16) to Gabriel MacKenzie. The oath was administered on 2 MAR 1778 in Washington County, Maryland.
On 25 April 1792, Gabriel McKinsey provided Leigh Master of Frederick County with a Release of Dower in connection with the previously discussed land transaction in June, 1769 between Gabriel and William Buchanan. Apparently, Sarah’s dower rights were not properly released at the time of the original transaction and the new owner wanted to obtain a clear title. The Release Deed reflected that Gabriel and Sarah were residents of Alleghany County, which is consistent with the fact that Alleghany County was carved from Washington County in 1789. The deed proves that both Gabriel and Sarah McKenzie were still alive as of April, 1792 and living in Alleghany County.
One of the last known land transactions involving Gabriel McKenzie occurred in connection with a patent he received for land west of Fort Cumberland on which he had settled. In November 2010, Michael McKenzie of Mt. Savage, Maryland provided the author with a copy of the patent issued by the State of Maryland to Gabriel McKenzie. According to Michael, the patent was difficult to locate because the property actually was patented to Peter Mayors (Majors) on May 23, 1803, although the patent itself reflects that the property was surveyed for Gabriel McKinsey..(18) Per the documents, Gabriel appeared before the Honorable Andrew Bruce, one of the Justices of the Peace of Allegany County, Maryland on May 16, 1792 and conveyed the fifty acres of land comprising lot number 3365 to Peter Mayors (Majors). The lot was described as being in the “reserved land west of Fort Cumberland”. Then on May 17, 1803, another document signed by Thomas Harwood, Jr. acknowledged and swore that “Gabriel Mckinsey, a settler westward of Fort Cumberland paid the purchase money for lot 3365”. Yet another unsigned document associated with this entire group of documents states that “Gabriel McKinney settler on Lot 3365 assigned to Peter Mayors (Majors) Patent to Peter Majors the 23rd May 1803”. This last document is a little confusing in that it could be interpreted that Gabriel was still alive in 1803 and was once again acknowledging that he was assigning lot 3365 to Majors so that he could obtain his patent. Since it is assumed by researchers that Gabriel was born abt. 1715, he would have been 88 years old in 1803 if he was still alive and capable of assigning the property to Peter Majors.
The same Michael McKenzie of Mt. Savage, Maryland has pinpointed the location of the Gabriel McKenzie land patent property. In these days of Google Maps, he did a fantastic job of locating the precise piece of property. The link to the Google Maps location for the property can be found at: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=15501+bear+camp+lane+mt+savage+md&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=27.423305,56.162109&ie=UTF8&hq=&hnear=15501+Bear+Camp+Ln+NW,+Mt+Savage,+Allegany,+Maryland+21545&ll=39.716595,-78.87424&spn=0.012973,0.027423&t=h&z=15
Paste that link into your browser and it will take you to the property. Michael also provided the author with a copy of the 1874 Map of Military Lots, Tracts, Escheats, etc. in Garrett County and Allegany County, Maryland. That map is located in the Media Section of the McKenzies of Early Maryland website. (19) If you locate that map and look directly under the "i & n " in PENNSYLVANIA at the top of the page, you will see a triangular lot # 3365 just above “Bear Camp”. That is the 50 acres of land that comprised the Gabriel McKenzie land patent. If you compare the 1874 map with the current Google map, the same triangular piece of property appears. Michael McKenzie of Mt. Savage, Maryland wrote to the author in November, 2010 and advised: “the lot is still the same shape and is still 50 acres owned by a nice couple, Earl Lepley and his wife, who by the way is a descendant of Gabriel. She was blown away when I told her she is living on her Grandpappys property.”
The author assumes Gabriel McKenzie died in Allegany County, Maryland after 1793 even though no will has ever been discovered, no any letters of administration, gravestone or church record.
Endnotes
1. From this point forward, the author has drawn partially upon the research of Col. Gabriel Thornton MacKenzie, Ret. Colonel MacKenzie researched the McKenzie Family from the late 1920’s until his death in the early 1960’s. He compiled over 1800 pages of handwritten notes from his research and travels. His descendant Joseph Edward McKenzie, P.O. Box 1671, Dunedin, Florida 34697 reduced all of Colonel McKenzie’s notes to microfilm obtainable from Dataplex Corporation 1502-A Joh Avenue Baltimore, Maryland 21227. Col. MacKenzie began corresponding with McKenzie relatives in 1929. Those early letters from elderly relatives (several of whom were born in the mid-1800’s) contain a great deal of information on the early generations of McKenzies from Western Maryland.
1.1 This information was gleaned from previous “research” of other McKenzie researchers. To date the author has not been able to find any documentation to substantiate it.
2. The information pertaining to Samuel McKenzie was provided by Debbie Harper. It has not been verified by the author. Although he was listed as being a settler on the lands west of Fort Cumberland, Samuel never bothered to obtain a proper patent on the land. On 10 SEP 1814, he sold part of lot 3369 to William Logsdon, Sr.. Samuel McKenzie, Sr. died intestate in March, 1837. As part of the procedure for settling the estate, Samuel's sons, Samuel F.(Jr.), Gabriel and John applied for and received a patent for the two lots Samuel, Sr. was living on (lots 3369 and 3370). The patents can be located on the Maryland State Archives at MSA SE 1-1 Image 020745-0329 and also on the www.mckenziesofearlymaryland web site in the Media section. The document is cross-referenced with Samuel McKenzie (b. abt. 1751). The sons immediately sold these lots. The settlement papers for his estate list all of his children except for Catherine and Elizabeth, who died before him without issue. Nowhere in the estate papers is a living widow of Samuel, Sr. mentioned. Yet, she must have been living, for in 1839, she executed a "make good" deed conveying her interest in the lots to her son, Samuel. (In fact, the boys selling the lots without her signature was illegal. She had to issue a retroactive deed to her son, Samuel, in order to clear the title on the property.) The deed in part reads: "Then came Ellen McKenzie . . . who sells to her son, Samuel McKenzie . . . for the sum of $1.00 and the natural affection of a mother toward her son . . . lots 3369 and 3370". This clearly shows that Samuel F. McKenzie (Jr's) mother was Ellen ____( and not Rachel Durbin as claimed by some researchers). The "make good" deed from "Ellen McKinzey" to "Samuel McKinzey" is recorded at Deed Book "W", page 535, Allegany County records.

OATH OF FIDELITY AND SUPPORT
I do swear I do not hold myself bound to yield any Allegience or obedience to the King of Great Britain his heirs or Successors and that I will be true and faithful to the State of Maryland and will to the utmost of my power, Support, maintain and defend the freedom and Independence thereof and the Government as now established against all open enemies and secret and traterous Consperaces and will use my utmost endeavours to disclose and make known to the Governor or some one of the judges or Justices thereof all Treasons or Traterous Consperaces, attempts or Combinations against this State or the Government thereof which may come to my Knowledge so help me God.
16. C.M. Brumbaugh and Margaret Robert Hodges, Revolutionary Records of Maryland, page 15. The actual record reads as follows:
The Worshipful Andrew Bruce Returns:
MacKenzie, Gabriel
MacKenzie, Aaron
MacKenzie, Samuel
MacKenzie, Daniel
Washington County, 2nd March, 1778. I certify to the Honorable the Governor and Council, that the within persons gave their affirmation to and subscribed the Oath of Fidelity to the State of Maryland according to the Act of Assembly and that this is a true Copy of the Book kept by me for that purpose and delivered to the Clerk of this County as ordered.
Andw. Bruce
Ed. Note: Given the similarity of names, the individuals who took the Oath of Fidelity to the State of Maryland most likely were Gabriel McKenzie and his sons, Samuel, Daniel and Aaron. Although the author does not have written proof that the individuals listed were father and sons, given the ages of Gabriel's children, the Oath of Fidelity information is consistent with Gabriel and his sons having migrated west to Washington County in the years preceding and/or during the Revolutionary War.

Thye following email summary concerning this line was prepared by Dick MacKenzie in February, 2015:
Greetings Sr. Beth Murphy! I was in FL trying to keep warm when you and Mike were emailing, so I apologize for the delay in getting back to you. It is always nice to hear from another distant cousin. I should have stayed in FL, however! Brrr!
I wanted to explain a few things about the family that you may not be aware of, and that aren’t necessarily evident from the website. The first is that only a small number of lines remained Catholic throughout time – yes, John and Katherine were Catholic, but that was a great surprise to all of us involved in the family research, as none of us were brought up Catholic – I’m a convert, but it has nothing to do with the family background – rather we were a bunch of Protestant families, that switched (probably due to marriages or whatever) many moons ago.
I descend from John’s son Daniel, via his youngest son Aaron, whereas your descent is through Daniel’s son, Eli. Eli’s branch is the one that was most evident in their Catholic belief. Not sure if you’re familiar with Conewago Chapel (now Basilica of the Sacred Heart, McSherrystown, PA), but that is where Eli’s son Daniel was supposedly married to Catherine Hartmann @1800 (I’ve never found proof of this marriage, but someone else supposedly did), and where most of their children plus Catherine were baptized (Catherine not until 4 Oct 1817.) It was a challenge identifying all of them because of the variety of the way the name was spelled -- anything from McKansy to McKenzie – but that is how we know birth dates for the ones that there are records of. I’ll outline them best I can:
Elias MacKenzie – b. @ 1803, no record of baptism or birth, but the connection with the family was evident from two items. His son, John William McKenzie, was baptized at St. John’s Catholic Church, Frederick Md. 8 Nov 1842, godmother Ann Elizabeth McKenzie. In 1850 Census, “Mary” O’Fallon and husband Michael (they were married 9 Apr 1844 Frederick Co. as Ann McKenzie and Michael O’Fallon), were living in Cincinnati along with Elizabeth McKinsey 38, Margaret McKinsey 30, and Susanna McKinsey 15. Susanna was the daughter of Elias and was living with her 3 aunts.
Joseph McKenzie – b. & bapt. 1805 at Conewago, relocated to Cincinnati by 1829.
Susanna McKenzie – Joseph’s twin, b. & bapt. 1805 at Conewago, died before 1810.
Leo Daniel “McKensey” -- b. 1 Nov 1807, baptized 7 Nov 1807 at Conewago. Although nothing is known about his life, he did appear as a witness at the marriage of Hillonet M’Kenzy (actually Elias) and Elizabeth Gauger (actually Gouker) at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Taneytown 3 Mar 1825, as Leo M’Kenzy, son of Daniel and Catherine McKensey.
“Johannes” Michael “McKen..” -- b. or bapt.? 23 Jul 1809 at Conewago.
Anna Elizab. “McKensie” – b. 18 Sep 1811, baptized 29 Sep 1811 at Conewago (typed Conewago records incorrectly show her birth year as 1814, not correct.)
Lewis “McKensie” – b. 25 Feb 1814, baptized at Conewago 3 Mar 1814, died before 1820
James “McKiney” – b. 5 Jul 1815, baptized 9 Jul 1815 at Conewago, relocated to Cincinnati before 1850.
Margaret McKenzie – b. @ 1819, no record of birth or baptism, in Cincinnati by 1850.
George McKenzie – b. 14 Oct 1820, baptized at Conewago 23 Oct 1820, died 11 Oct 1823, per records of St. Joseph Catholic Church, Taneytow
Ann Mary Barbara McKenzie -- b. 14 Sep 1824, baptized 17 Sep 1824 at St. Joseph Catholic Church, Taneytown. (St. Joseph’s records do not contain a last name for this entry, just Ann Mary Barbara, parents Daniel and Catherina.)
So there you have that part of the puzzle.
In the early days of Conewago Chapel and St. Joseph’s Church there was a Russian Jesuit Priest named Demetrius Augustine Gallitzin (AKA: Father Smith) involved with both, and about 1800 he relocated to Cambria Co., PA to a place called McGuire’s Settlement, whose name he changed to Loretto. He took with him some 40-50 families from the area around Taneytown and Conewago, and one of those was Eli’s eldest son John McKenzie and wife Catherine (Warner) and several of their young children in about 1803. (Eli had actually purchased land in then Bedford Co., from which Cambria was formed, in 1802.) This “McKinzie” family was heavily involved with St. Michael’s Church in Loretto for years.
Another of Eli’s sons, Henry (married Sarah Johnson in Frederick Co. 8 Oct 1800), had son Thomas “McKansy” b. 13 Aug 1801 baptized at Conewago 4 Oct 1801. Henry relocated to Cincinnati (where else?) in 1809, but then moved on to Dearborn Co., IN after 1814, where his family remained for years.
Believed to be Eli’s daughter, “Mariana McKinsey” married Joseph Arnold at Conewago 12 Jan 1796, witnesses John and Catherine McKinsey. The Arnold family has not been tracked thusfar.
Another person married at Conewago was “Henericus McKensie” to Helena Mahaffe 6 Sep 1821, witnesses Rachel Chambers and Daniel McKensie. Not sure how this Henry fits into the puzzle.
I thought you might find some of this history interesting. If you let me know when you think you’ll be in DC and what you would like to see about the MacKenzie property, I’d be glad to try to meet you and show you around. I’m sure another cousin, Don Kagle, would join us if he’s available. He ‘s located in Harford Co., MD, whereas I’m in suburban Philadelphia. The original MacKenzie property, near Ellicott City in Howard Co., MD, which remained in my line’s possession until the 1930’s, is the only one where we have remaining evidence of the family in the presence of a home and 3 headstones. Eli’s family was located in now Carroll Co., between Westminster and Taneytown, which is where his father, Daniel patented “Molly’s Fancy” although that’s a story for another day.
If there is anything I can help you with, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Regards,
