    Notes:

    There has been lots of confusion over at least 2 Johannes Binkleys. According to Bridget Rogier who has done a lot of research on the Binkley family, our Johannes came over with Felix Landis in 1719. He is not the Johannes who was the son of Christian Binkley, born in 1695, who came to PA in 1736 and died in 1757. n Rupp's Thirty Thousand Names, P. 436, where a reference is made to the arrival of Johannes Binkley and Felix Landis during 1719.his Johannes came to America from the Canton Bern, Switzerland, along with a party of emigrants, which included the Landis and Herr families.The party found settlement in a locality then known as "old Hickory," nearby to the present city of Lancaster, and now being the townships of Lampeter and Manor, in Lancaster County, PA. These Binkleys spread over the township of Manheim during the course of time, and there is now a small community there called Binkley. It is not known at this time, if these Binkleys were related, or a connection, of those of the name to be dealt with hereafter, but at this time it would seem that there were no blood ties, this side of Europe at least, and it would appear that they were of the Mennonite and Dunkard faithe, although there were many Binkleys found in the records of the Lutheran Church of Lancaster City, 1780-1746."nnes and Barbara for 100 pounds.e the third part of all movable goods and income of the plantation until my son Johannes turns twenty one.
