Daniel was the son of Wilhelm (William) Sprenckel (Sprengel, Sprenkel) & Anna Catharina Ehrhard (her surname also has many spelling variations). Daniel was born about 1744.

He married Christina Myers. Their children included: Elizabeth (Mayer); Charles; Mary (Pass); Catharine (Stover); Magdalena (Bowser); Eva (Flase); George; William J.; Daniel; possibly John; and a daughter who married a Davies.

It appears as if Daniel participated in the Revolutionary War as a Private, 1st Batt., York Co. Militia (Capt. John Ehrman). See: PA Archives, Sixth Series, Vol. II, Pg. 432 & PA Archives, 5th Series, Vol. IV, Pg. 479

Family information indicates that Daniel & his wife are buried in a cemetery that was associated with the old Fountain Dale Lutheran Church in Hamiltonban Twp., Adams Co.

IMPORTANT: Daniel was indeed the son of Wilhelm Sprenckel. However, the names at Find A Grave for Wilhelm's parent, grandparents, etc. are not proven or documented. Please do not add generations beyond Wilhelm to your database. You are kidding yourself if you do.
