Over the years of wandering around Chester County and its neighboring counties to photograph the old meeting houses, I've found myself confused more times than I really care to admit about some of the history involved. Pa t of the confusion stems from the fact that, thanks to the Separation in the 1800's, there are a number of cases where there is more than one meeting house in existence tied to a particular modern day meeting.

In the interest of piecing together the various records I have found related to the Meconkey family (with whatever spelling of the surname), I am putting together a timeline per each name. Hopefully, this might allow some conclusions to be drawn about the genealogy of the family. Locations are indicated in brackets at the end of each entry.

• 1749, Apr. 23 - Anne McConkey, daughter of Samuel, baptised at Old Tennent Church [Monmouth Co., NJ]
