Adam's Father is William Stit/Stitt YECKLEY, christened on 13 May 1793 in German Reformed Dutch Church at Montgomery, Orange, NY. William married Phoebe McAlrath around 1821 probably in Manchester or Palmyra, NY area.. Phoebe was born about 1802, maybe in Plymouth, Marshall, Indiana. (one of my side notes states her birth date as 9 June 1800 in New York). They moved to Plymouth, Marshall, Indiana in the 1830's. William died 22 Jan. 1878 and Phoebe died 26 April 1848.
They had the following children:
*Adam YECKLEY (Listed as the Family Unit above)
*Elizabeth YECKLEY was born in 1824 probably in Manchester or Palmyra, NY area. Elizabeth married Thomas R. Hawkins on 22 Sep 1842 in Plymouth, Marshall, Indiana. She is listed in the Indiana marriage records along side Adam YECKLEY marriage to Mary Elizabeth NASH. This is the Thomas Hawkins Family where we find the information about Phoebe’s last name being “McAlrath”. It states: “ Thomas, father of William W. Hawkins, was born on his father’s farm, where he was also reared and received a common-school education. He was married to Elizabeth Yeckley, daughter of William and Phoebe (McAlrath) Yeckley, but Mrs. Hawkins was called from the life after giving birth to two children: Marian M. and William W. born 22 Sept. 1845, the latter being two years of age at the time of his Mother’s death”. (See information notes for sources and references). Elizabeth passed away in 1847.
