Ann's younger brother, Henry KAIGLER (1804-1884) married Lucinda WOLFE (1806-bet 1837-1840). Lucinda is probably a niece of Margaret's.

Ann & Henry were minors at the time of their father's (Michael) death in 1815. A guardian was appointed in 1815, Lexington Co, SC for Michael's (five) minor children. Ann, Harriet, Lavinia, Drusilla & Henry.

Michael's minor children asked for a right division of the property. A suit was filed against their older brother, David KAIGLER, et al 26 Jan 1815, who administered Michael's estate - - signing the suit were John CRAPPS, David KAIGLER, & Elizabeth, Michael's mother (who made her mark).

1788 - Michael was included in the list of members of the German Lutheran Church of Salem, on Sandy Run.  The list also shows Mikel KEGLER with what appears to be his father and brother (both listed as Andreas KOGLER), Jacob SAYLOR, apparently his father-in-law, and John LOWERMAN

1790 - North part of Orangeburgh District, SC, census (p. 95), includes the Michael KAIGLER household with one male under 16, two females, seven slaves and one other free person

Marriage and Baptism Church Records

The following is the imperfect translation of the incomplete record kept in German, by Rev. John U GIESSENDANNER, I and by his nephew, Rev John GIESSENDANNER, II before his departure for England:

"Catalogus Conjugatorum."

"This Book contains the names of all those who were Married and Baptized by me in Orangeburgh in Public as well as in Private & herein accurately Recorded.

"Minister."
"Anno 1740."

"This Book should be carefully preserved that those who may wish to know of their family may find it in the Book of Record." ---- John GIESSENDANNER, the younger. 'And the Lord said it is not good for man to be alone I will make a help to meet for Him' (Genesis 2, Chap 18, followed by another passage from 128 Psalm and from Hebrews 13 -4.)

"Here follows a Register, of List of such persons as were married and joined together in matrimony by my predecessor & Uncle ( Rev John U GIESSENDANNER), deceased, and now in Heaven. This register is copied from the old Book into this new one -- word for word accurately -- as he wrote and kept it.
