I am researching this Kerchner line even though I am not a descendant of this Kerchner immigrant because this family group spelled the surname exactly the same as my immigrant family group. George Kerchner arrived about 1860 and settled in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. To date I have not found any link to my 1741 immigrant ancestor, Adam Kerchner, of Lehigh and Berks Co PA. If you have family links to the Pittsburgh PA Kerchner family please contact me. Thank you.

Note: Some dates shown are estimates. The below chart was generated using the PAF Computer Program - Version 2.31. Some data in this report is indicated as "about" or "circa", etc. Therefore, do not quote dates off this report as precise unless you have independently verified it.
