Margaret Folkerth was born in Frederick County , Maryland January 23, 1827. Her parents were Peter and Susan Engle of whom there were six children, three boys and three girls. William, David, and John Engle are still living. In 1848 the deceased was united in marriage to Alfred Yingling, to them one child was born. In 1849 the husband departed this life, and in 1850 she went back to Maryland where she remained for one year, when she with her parents moved to Ohio where she remained a widow until April 20, 1854 when she was united in marriage to Ebenezer Folkerth. One child was born to them, F. Folkerth who lives on the home farm near Shakertown. January 5, 1879 the Lord called the husband from this world of sorrow and trouble to that better land. She remained a widow until death called her home to meet her loved ones where parting is no more. Sister Folkerth, early in life, joined the Southern Church in Frederick County, Maryland. After moving to Ohio, she joined the United Brethern Church of which she was a faithful member until she married Ebenezer Folkerth, when she and her husband united with the Dunkard Church of which she remained a faithful member until her death. She was a loving wife, a kind mother, a good neighbor, and a faithful christain, always trusting in Jesus and ready and willing to do good up to the very time the death angel called her home in the twinkle of an eye where she will rest from her labors and her works will follow her. May her soul find peace in heaven. Amen. The funeral of mother Folkerth took place at her home in Vanburen Township, Montgomery County, Ohio, Friday, March 30, 1894. Interment in Aley church Cemetery. Rev. Grigsby and brother Samuel Kiehl of Dayton officiating. Scripture read, 90th Psalm text first chapter. Rev. and first verse.
From a History & Biographical Cyclopaedia of Butler Co Ohio, 1882, page 478; In 1876, Rev. F.G. Grigsby, a United Brethren clergyman of the Mt. Pleasant circuit, began to preach at this point. A church was organized, and the building, which was becoming, very much dilapidated, was repaired. (This was at a location called "Fair Play" in Ross Twp, Butler Co, Ohio).
