      William Flenniken, meat merchant, who was born in 
Cumberland Township, July 30, 1838, is a son of John W 
Flenniken and Hattie Wright Flenniken. His mother was born 
in Bucks County, Penna, and his father was a native of 
Greene County.  They were of Scotch Irish descent.  Mr 
Flenniken's ancestors were among the early settlers of 
Pennsylvania, coming to Greene County as early as 1767.  His 
father was a farmer; his family consisted of seven children: 
four sons and three daughters.  William was fifth in the 
family, and was reared on the farm in Greene County, where 
he remained until 1886.  He then came to Carmicheals, where 
he has since resided.
  
      In 1863 he married Eliza A Hartman, daughter of 
William Hartman and Achsah Smith Hartman.  Mr and Mrs 
Flenniken are prominent members of the Presbyterian Church 
in which Mr Flenniken has served as trustee.
