     Samuel Harclerode was born circa 1806 in Bedford, Pennsylvania.¹ He was the son of John Henry Harclerode and Eve (Eva) Diehl.

     David Harclerode was born on 13 November 1841. He was the son of John Henry Harclerode and Eve (Eva) Diehl.

     James Dee Lambert was born on 14 January 1960.¹ He married Margie LeAnn Trammel, daughter of Buster Wallace Trammel and Sondra Jo Teets, on 21 June 1991 in Bakersfield, California.^1,2

     Darien Scott Lambert was born on 22 June 1994 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.¹ He is the son of James Dee Lambert and Margie LeAnn Trammel.

     Jonathan Scott Trammel was born on 17 March 1986.¹ He is the son of Richard Raymond Zinn and Margie LeAnn Trammel. Jonathan Scott Trammel married Katherine Reynolds on 18 December 2010.²

     Michael Teets was born circa 1791; he appeared many times between 1811 and 1829 in the Monongalia (before 1818) and in the Preston County Tax Records (see Teets in Tax Records). His father Henry and several of his brothers also appeared in these records. He presumably died before 1830 as Elizabeth appears as a head of household in the 1830 census. Elizabeth also appears in the Tax Records between 1830-1833, further supporting this theory.

He seems to appear in the 1800 and 1810 census records, which when combined indicate a birth date between 1790-1794. Michael shows up for the first time on the 1811 Tax Records list, and is married November 2, 1811 to Elizabeth Miller. Michael is between 26-44 in 1820, and apparently dies before 1830, as there are no other census records where he appears. Morton's "History of Preston County" states that Michael "drowned 1850". This could easily be a typo. His wife Elizabeth is 61 in 1850, giving her a birth date of 1789. Based on the census record age range, and birth dates of siblings, Michael's birth date was chosen to be 1791. His is birth location remains unknown.^2,1 He was the son of Henry Teets and Mary (?).¹ Michael Teets married Elizabeth Miller, daughter of George "Oil" Miller, on 2 November 1811 in Shenandoah, Virginia.³ Michael Teets died before 1830; his last appearance in the Tax Records of Preston County occurred in 1829. His wife Elizabeth, however was in those records between 1830-1833 implying that she was a widow at that time.^4,3,5,6
     Michael Teets, Jr. volunteered, along with Adam, Christian, and Jacob Teets, and joined Captain Leonard Cupp's Virginia Militia in 1813. They took part in the regiments 400-odd mile march to Fort Meigs at the rapids on Maumee River (now the city of Toledo, Ohio) which was beseiged by British and Indians.

Michael Jr. drowned when he was about 65 years of age while crossing the Cheat River in high water. As it was at the time, superstitions had the victim buried at the place where they were found, so Michael was buried on the island at the mouth of Muddy Creek.⁶ Michael Teets was also known as Michael Dietz.³

He was probably one of the (an unknown value) males under age 10 listed in the household of his father, Henry Teats, in the 1800 Federal Census of Sandy Creek, Allegany, Maryland.⁷ The "Muster Roll of Captain Leonard Cupp's Company" from what is now Preston County, in service in 1812, shows Christian Teets, Michael Teets, Adam Teets, and Jacob Teets. This record is seen in Wiley's "History of Preston County."⁸

     Elizabeth Miller was born on 27 January 1790 in Shenandoah, Virginia.^2,3,4 She was the daughter of George "Oil" Miller.¹ Elizabeth Miller was baptized on 8 August 1790; her godparents were Wilhelm and Elisabeth Vogel.⁵ She was born on 2 January 1790; the bible record states that the church record has her birth date as 2 January 1790: Wust, Reformed Zion-Pine Church Records, p. 17.⁵ She was born circa 1795 in Cheat River, Preston, (West) Virginia.⁶ She married Michael Teets, son of Henry Teets and Mary (?), on 2 November 1811 in Shenandoah, Virginia.¹ Elizabeth Miller married John Markley before 1837.¹ Elizabeth Miller died in 1891 in Cheat River, Preston, West Virginia.⁷
     She lived before 1832 in Preston, (West) Virginia.¹

     Adam Teets was born circa 1789; he appeared many times between 1807 and 1849 in the Monongalia (before 1818) and in the Preston County Tax Records (after 1818). His father Henry and several of his brothers also appeared in these records (see Teets in Tax Records).

While Adam seems to appear in every census between 1810 and 1860, his age was explicitly shown as 61 in 1850, and his age was explicitly shown as 73 in 1860. Using this information, his birth date is calculated to be between 1787 and 1789. Using the 1800-1810 census records makes it more difficult to calculate a birth date (range calculated was 1795-1799 which does not match up with the ages stated in 1850 and 1860). In another source, the biography of Alpha Teets, his son, in the "McDonough County, Illinois History Book" states that Adam was born in 1790. Using these sources, 1789 was chosen as his birth date. His birth location remains unknown.^{2,3,4,5,6,7,8,1} He was the son of Henry Teets and Mary (?).¹ Adam Teets married Elizabeth Mosser, daughter of Nicholas Mosser and Magdalena Dellenback, in 1813.⁸ Adam Teets died in 1865.
      Adam Teets was also known as Max Teets.⁹ Adam Teets was also known as Adam Teats.¹⁰

He was probably one of the (an unknown value) males under age 10 listed in the household of his father, Henry Teats, in the 1800 Federal Census of Sandy Creek, Allegany, Maryland.¹¹ The "Muster Roll of Captain Leonard Cupp's Company" from what is now Preston County, in service in 1812, shows Christian Teets, Michael Teets, Adam Teets, and Jacob Teets. This record is seen in Wiley's "History of Preston County."¹²

     Elizabeth Mosser was born on 13 July 1793 in Maryland.^3,4,5,6,7,8 She was the daughter of Nicholas Mosser and Magdalena Dellenback.^1,2 Elizabeth Mosser married Adam Teets, son of Henry Teets and Mary (?), in 1813.⁸ Elizabeth Mosser died after September 1870; Elizabeth appears in son Levi's 1870 census records, which conflicts with a death date of 1869 from other sources. It appears from that census that she died after September 10, 1870, probably in Preston County.^7,8

     John Teets was born circa 1795; he appeared many times between 1815 and 1840 in the Monongalia (before 1818) and in the Preston County Tax Records (see Teets in Tax Records). His father Henry and several of his brothers also appeared in these records.

John appears in the 1820 census in Preston County (under name Teater), and in 1850 and 1860 census where it shows that he is 65 in both of those census. There is no way to determine if either of those records are correct. His first appearance in the Tax Records was 1815. So, with no better source available, the author chooses to use a birth date of 1795, and birth location remains unknown.^2,3,4 He was the son of Henry Teets and Mary (?).¹ John Teets married Margaret Wolfe, daughter of John Jacob "Mountain Man" Wolfe Jr. and Christina Eva "Eve" Wetzel, in 1814.^5,6 John Teets died after 1860.⁷
     He was probably one of the (an unknown value) males under age 10 listed in the household of his father, Henry Teats, in the 1800 Federal Census of Sandy Creek, Allegany, Maryland.⁸

     Margaret Wolfe was born circa 1797 in Preston, Virginia.⁵ She was the daughter of John Jacob "Mountain Man" Wolfe Jr. and Christina Eva "Eve" Wetzel.^2,3,4 Margaret Wolfe married John Teets, son of Henry Teets and Mary (?), in 1814.^6,3
      Margaret Wolfe was also known as Elizabeth Wolfe.⁶

     Eva C. "Eve" Teets was born in February 1841 in Preston, Virginia.^{2,3,4,5,6,1,7} She was the daughter of John Teets and Margaret Wolfe. Eva C. "Eve" Teets married Amaziah Pell "Amazi" Fortney, son of Daniel R. Fortney and Mahalia Pell, circa 1859 in Preston, West Virginia.⁸

     Mary Teets was born circa 1789; it appears that Mary was in the 1800 and 1810 census records with her parents. Mary's death record shows that she was 68 when she died in September 1857 in Preston County. That information leads to a birth date of c1789-1790. 1789 was used, and the birth location remains unknown.^1,3 She was the daughter of Henry Teets and Mary (?).^1,2 Mary Teets married John Wetzel "Wobby" Wolfe, son of John Jacob "Mountain Man" Wolfe Jr. and Christina Eva "Eve" Wetzel, circa 1813 in Rockingham.^1,4,5 Mary Teets died on 7 September 1857 in Crab Orchard, Preston, West Virginia.^1,3,6,7
     She was probably the female age 10 to 15 listed in the household of her father, Henry Teats, in the 1800 Federal Census of Sandy Creek, Allegany, Maryland.⁸

     John Wetzel "Wobby" Wolfe was born circa 1780 in Preston, Virginia.^1,2,4 He was the son of John Jacob "Mountain Man" Wolfe Jr. and Christina Eva "Eve" Wetzel.³ John Wetzel "Wobby" Wolfe married Mary Teets, daughter of Henry Teets and Mary (?), circa 1813 in Rockingham.^5,6,3 John Wetzel "Wobby" Wolfe died on 23 July 1859.¹
     He was a blacksmith and bell maker, and he served in the War of 1812.⁷

     Elizabeth Teets was born between 1790 and 1794 in Virginia; in the 1850 census, Elizabeth is stated to be 40; the author believes this is incorrect. In the 1860 census, Elizabeth is widowed and age 65, which seems more accurate and implies a birth date to be between 1790-1794.^{1,4,5,6,7,8,9,10} She was the daughter of Henry Teets and Mary (?).^2,3 Elizabeth Teets married George Wolfe, son of John Jacob "Mountain Man" Wolfe Jr. and Christina Eva "Eve" Wetzel, between 1810 and 1820.¹¹ Elizabeth Teets died after 1860.¹⁰
