Fifth Generation

42. MINARD\Myndart PICKEL^1,7 was born on 6 July 1787 in Lebanon Township, Hunterdon County, New Jersey.¹ He was christened on 17 March 1788 in Oldwick, Hunterdon County, New Jersey.¹ He died before 1850 at the age of 63 in Schuyler County, Illinois.¹

Baptism witnesses were the child's parents; Abraham and wife Peggi.

I believe Minard and Barbara were first cousins, based on World Connect data. Minister said to be Lenaham.

The 1826 Chattell Tax for Perry Twp, Franklin Co, Ohio, lists Minor Pickle. [Also Stephen Avery]

In 1830, Minard Pickle was in Perry Twp, Franklin Co, Ohio. He was listed as age 40-50 with 1 male 15-20 and one under 5 - the females weren't transcribed. He was 43. I believe the male under 5 was Isaac and he may also have had an older son, the one 15-20 born between Margaret and Anna.
He was next door to Benjamin West who had married Anne Avery, a daughter of Daniel Avery.

In 1840, Minor Pickle is listed in Precinct #2 of Schuyler Co Illinois. 1m 50-60 [Minard], 1m 10-15 [Isaac], 1m 20-30 [older son as above], 1f 50-60 [Barbara] and 1f 10-15 [Betsey].

Served on a Petit Jury, March 1840 and was paid $4.50 for six days.

Minor Pickle is listed in the Illinois Public Domain Land Tract Sales with a total of 280 acres in Schuyler Co.

MINARD\Myndart PICKEL and BARBARA MELLICK FARLEY were married on 15 December 1807 in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.^1,8 BARBARA MELLICK FARLEY, daughter of ISAAC FARLEY and ANNETJE "Anna' MELICK, was born about 1788 in Hunterdon County, New Jersey.¹

MINARD\Myndart PICKEL and BARBARA MELLICK FARLEY had the following children:

MARGARET PICKLE.

[Son] PICKEL was born (date unknown).
An older male is found in both the 1830 and 1840 Censuses. I think he is not Isaac - see notes for Isaac.

Isaac PICKLE^1,9,10,11 was born in 1823 in Ohio.¹⁰ He died on 31 August 1906 at the age of 83 in Schuyler County, Illinois.¹⁰
Isaac is a bit of a puzzle. The records of Marietta Pickell give birth and place as 1810, Hunterdon Co, NJ. However, in Schuyler Co IL in 1860, there is an Isaac Pickle living in the household of Philo Avery, son of Margaret Pickle Avery - age 25 and born in Ohio. Isaac appears in 1870, living with Eliza Avery Irwiin, a daughter of Margaret Pickle Avery - age 40, but born in Ohio. He was still with the Irwin's in 1880, age 50, b. Ohio, parents b. NJ.
I believe he is not the son in the earliest censuses, but is one of the younger children. He apparently had a mental disability.
