Notes:

From Forerunners: A History or Genealogy of the Strickler Families Their Kith and Kin, by Harry M. Strickler (Harrisonburg, Virginia: 1925), pp. 277 - 278:

All the above dates in regard to Samuel Strickler are taken from the farmily Bible in the possession of Henry Strickler of Franklin, Ind. who is a descendant of the said Samuel.

Henry Strickler of Franklin, Ind. has a small German Bible published by Christoph Saur of Germantown, Pa in 1769. The first Bible published in America was published by Saur about this time. One the title page are printed, among other things, these words; "Verteutchet D. Martin Lurther." On the fly leaf is written in English, presumably in 1876, the information that the book passed thru four generations, passing first from Benjamin Strickler to his son, Samuel, and then to his son Reuben, and then to his son, George Strickler...

The marriage records of Shenandoah Co. state that Samuel Stickler married Christina Burner Sep. 6, 1785. In 1799 when the heirs of Benjamine Strickler of Massanutten sign a deed of conveyance Samuel and his wife Christiana sign as two of those heirs.
