The birth of Wendel Hinkle has been given on widely divergent dates. This probably is to be accounted for an inability to properly interpret the German script in the family Bible and also the usual inaccuracies of local or county histories.
The Rev. War record has his birth as March 17, 1757.
The Shenandoah Valley history has it as March 31, 1757.
An affidavit for his sister, Elizabeth Hinkle Smith, in support of Nathan Hinkle's application is given March 31, 1755.
A personal investigation by Dr. James Reid Hinkle and Carl Russell Hinkle found the original German records of St. Michael's Lutheran Church of Germantown, Pa and were the authority for the following records:
The parents, Anthony Hinkle, III, and Maria Magdalena Zwecker, were married April 19, 1756; Wendel Hinkle, eldest son was born March 13, 1757 and Nathan Hinkle was born March 31, 1759. Pennsylvania Historical Records, page 395. These dates have been accepted by the Henckel Family Historian as correct.
When Wendel was about 13 years old, his family moved to Earltown (now New Holland) Lancaster Co., Penn. Here he was reared to maturity, met Elizabeth and married her about 1783. She was the daughter of a neighboring farmer, Philip Fox.

Wendel Hinkle served as a "waggoner" in the Revolutionary Army hauling ammunition, provisions, dispatches and letters along the Atlantic seaboard from Pennsylvania to the Carolinas. (other references: Penn. Arch. 3rd series, Vol 7, page 507). His work was done with a wagon and team and he used the same means to transport his family from place to place.

The children, including twin daughters, were born by 1807 and were all born in NC, some of the younger in Burke Co.
