"Son of Joseph and Elizabeth (Huffman) Reinhart.

History of Greene County, Penn. by William Hanna 1882
Pages 255, 256 & 257
THE RINEHART FAMILY OF GREENE COUNTY- Joseph Rinehart emigrated from Germany during the last half of the eighteenth century. His first location on this continent was in Maryland, where his father and mother died. Shortly afterwards, Joseph Rinehart, Jr., removed to Greene county, Pa., where he was married to Miss Elizabeth Huffman, sister of Benjamin Huffman. They had but two children - Thomas and Joseph. Thomas had but two children, both daughters, named Delila and Elizabeth, the latter of whom was married to Jos., a son of William Rhodes, the artist, near Jackson's Fort. Delila was married to Isaac Nelson. Joseph Rinehart was born on the fifth of November, 1776. His wife was Miss Sarah Smith, daughter of Ichobad Smith. They were married on the 29th of November 1807, and were the parents of six sons and three daughters, who were all born in Greene county. Their names and dates of their births are as follows; Eliza was born December 21st, 1808; Aaron G. was born September 26th, 1810; Joseph was born January 19th, 1813; John H. Was born January 18th, 1815; Mary was born October 15th, 1817; Hiram H. Was born January 15, 1820; William Harvey was born May 2d, 1823; Sarah was born June 22d, 1825; Benjamin Franklin was born August 29th, 1829. John H. Rinehart has for upwards of fifty years been a citizen of the State of Ohio; his present address is McKay, Ashland county, Ohio. He seems to be a man of remarkable memory, and has sent me at different times numerous reminiscences of events that occurred in this county upwards of half a century ago, which are hereto appended in his own words. In the year 1829, Joseph Rinehart sold his farm of two hundred acres, two and a half miles east of Waynesburg, to Solomon Gordon and in April 1830, he removed to a farm adjoining the western line of Wayne county, Ohio. Seven years later, he removed to Richland county, Ohio, and settled in Greene township, which is now part of Ashland county. Aaron J. Rinehart became a book-keeper, and Alderman in the fourth word of Pittsburg, Pa. Joseph Rinehart, became a carpenter. Hiram became. Minister of the Gospel. William H. Became a mill-wright and Farmer. Benjamin Franklin is an artist and portrait painter in New YorkCity. Of the next generation of this name we're the following persons; Barney, Simon and Samuel, of one family. John, William and Arthur were sons in another family, while John, Stephen and Jacob were sons in a third family. Of the next generation - 1st Barney had three sons, James, Samuel and Simon. 2d, Simon had two sons and three daughters; Samuel and Jesse were the sons, the daughters' names not remembered; 3rd SamuelR. Was the father of six sons and three daughters; viz: Joseph, Asa, Enos, Reason, John and Samuel; these sons of living, are all over sixty years of age. 4th Barney Rinehart of this generation also raised a large family, but the names cannot be found. Of the sisters of this generation, Sarah was married to Henry Church, Elizabeth to William Ingram, Mary R. to Richard Hughes; also one sister whose name was Susan was married to Isaiah Strawn. John Hughes Rinehart, my informant, is now sixty years and six months old. He was born near Ten,I'll Creek, where Hicey, now Pollock's mill, below Jefferson, has since been erected. When he was one year old, his father removed to a spot one-half mile from the town of Carmichael s, on Muddy Creek, where they resided for four or five years; then removed to the east branch pf Laurel run, about two and a half miles east of Waynesburg, where they continued to reside until the spring of 1830, when they removed to Ohio. The only school teachers this man ever received instructions from were Arthur McCourtney and Dr. Arthur Ingram, who both taught in an old log school-house, on Dr. Arthur Ingram's father's farm, on laurel run. Since John H. has lived in the Buckeye State, he has erected several mills, and is now possessed of a valuable landed property. The sons of Simon Rinehart (of Barnet) are J. Morris and James R. R. The daughters, Mary F., who married Frederick Hambright. Mariah is now the wife of Elias Hartzell. The sons of Jesse (of Thomas) are J. Workman, Thomas, Dell, Henry and George.
