Albert Hyram Klinger1

M, #7992, b. 18 February 1872, d. 25 March 1960
  • Last Edited: 19 May 2021
  • Albert Hyram Klinger is also referred to as Heyram A. Klinger in some sources.2
  • He was born on 18 February 1872, Klingerstown, Schuylkill County, PA.3,4,5
  • He was the son of Marcus Klinger and Elizabeth Delp.
  • Some sources record that Albert Hyram Klinger was born in February 1878, Pennsylvania.2
  • The 1900 Census lists "Heyram" as a son of Marcus and Elizabeth Klinger, but it is likely that this listing is a reference to their son Albert Hyram," although the birthdate appears to be inaccurate. The 1900 Census indicates that Elizabeth was the mother of only 5 children, all of whom were living in 1900. Her fifth child was born in 1874, 4 years before "Heyram," suggesting that this listing duplicates an earlier child. Also, there is no listing for a Heyram in the 1880 Census.6
  • He married Mabel Maude Rebuck, daughter of Jacob Rebuck and Susan Shaffer, circa 1913.4,7
  • At the time of the 1920 Census, Albert, a farmer, was head of a household that included one daughter, a servant, Mabel Rebuck, and his widowed mother, Eliza. Albert was listed as single at the time, but that is inconsistent with later Census records.8
  • Some sources suggest that Albert Hyram Klinger and Mabel Maude Rebuck were married after 1920 because, in the 1920 Census, Mabel was listed in Albert's household as single and a servant. Albert was also listed as single.8
  • In 1930, Albert and his family were living in Upper Mahanoy Township, Northumberland County, where he was a farmer. He and Mabel had been married about 16 years. Their household included 6 children and Albert's widowed mother.7
  • Albert Hyram Klinger died on 25 March 1960, Upper Mahanoy Township, Northumberland County, PA, at age 88.4,3,5
  • He was buried on 29 March 1960, at St. Michael's Church Cemetery, Klingerstown, Schuylkill County, PA.3,5
