Notes

Gasper or Leonard Fleenor immigrated from the Palatinate of Germany to Philadelphia about 1740, and settled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, later moving to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and then to Frederick County, Maryland. Jacob Fleenor I (b.ca.1750), a son, was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania and moved from Maryland to Washington County, Virginia, and in 1791 to Sullivan County, Tennessee. Jacob William Fleenor (1855-1933), direct descendant of Jacob I in the fifth generation, was born in Kansas territory and left an orphan. He married Mary Susanna Hope in 1873 at near Elgin, Chataqua County, Kansas, and settled at LeCompton, Kansas. Descendants and relatives of the immigrant ancestor lived in Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Kansas, Arkansas, Iowa, Oregon and elsewhere.
