that a differentSamuel Kneisle in the same area married a different Patterson girl?

Maybe Samuel married Maria Patterson first, then he married Maria's sister Catharine?
Since I didn't see the original record, maybe the marriage isn't really to "Maria"?

In 1786 he sold his share of the Hempfield-Manheim Twp tract to his brother George.
(deed EE, pg 354, dated 3/1/1786) between John and George Kneisly, covering a
certain tract in Manheim Twp, inherited jointly from their father George. "It being
the same tract of land which the Proprieties of Penna by their patent dated 7/22/1747
did grant unto the said George Kneisly, as by said patent recorded at Phila. in Patent
Book A, Vol 12, pg 519 may appear.

Notes:

There's nothing to tie Clement to the other Patterson family at Trinity Lutheran
(other than proximity and common surname).

Well, other things to consider - the other Pattersons are at a German Lutheran
Church. They have German names like "Johannes".

1) It seems that Anna and Catharine Patterson, and mother, Widow Margaretha,
are all together at Trinity Lutheran and closely related. Anna seems oldest
and is the first one in the Trinity Records - 1784. Annamarries an English
man, Catharine, a German one.

2) Johannes is there. Hewas married at a different church and doesn't
want to attend at Trinity. No connections of him to anyone else.

3) Clement shows up in 1794 at his marriage to a German girl.

which drives this mill comes from a spring a few hundred yards
above, and is one of thefinest in the county, but steam-power
has been added."

Notes:

marriage of Margaretha Patterson and Robert Cunningham in 1787
says "widowed persons"

how confident am I that Margaret at Trinity is the mother of the kids? Or Clement?

how confident am I that Margaret the widow, is a widow of William?

how confident am I that Margaret, widow of William, married Robert Cunningham
and attended Trinity Lutheran? From sponsorship in 1789, maybe she just
attended Trinity and didn't remarry? Or had Robert died and she revertedto her
original married name?

1800 census, pg 241, Lancaster, Martic, 00010-20010 (Robert Cunningham)

sp -> 1789, John Heilbrunner and Catharine (as Widow Margaretha Patterson)
(but why isn't she listed as Cunningham?)

(and Catharine was sponsor to Anna in 1787)

I have the least confidence that Margaret who married in 1790 is in this family.
