     Enoch Kiffer was born on 28 July 1794 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.1 He was the son of Frederick Kiffer and Susanna Catherine Urey.1 He was baptized on 3 May 1795 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.2 He married Nancy Appleton on 11 September 1832 in Clarion County, Pennsylvania.3,4 He died on 22 July 1865 in Beaver Valley, Hickory Township, Forest County, Pennsylvania, at age 70.5,6 He was buried in Riverside Cemetery, East Hickory, Hickory Township, Forest County, Pennsylvania.6
     Enoch Kiffer served in the U.S. Army during the War of 1812, being drafted for three months at Slippery Rock Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, on 12 January 1814. He served as a Private in Captain Shaffer's Company, Pennsylvania Militia. He was discharged at Erie on 19 March 1814.7
     Enoch retuned to Slippery Rock Township following his military service. He appears to be living in his parent's household in 1820. After his father and mother died in 1824 and 1829, respectively, Enoch appears as the head of household in the 1830 census of Slippery Rock Township. The household appears to have consisted of his younger, unmarried siblings, likely brothers Frederick and Henry, and sisters Margaret, Catherine, Sarah, and Anna.8,9,10
     Enoch moved from Slippery Rock Township, Butler County to Paint Township, Venango County, Pennsylvania, around 1830. Paint Township became part of Clarion County in 1839. The area where he and Nancy lived became part of Knox Township in 1853.11,12,13,14,15 Enoch and Nancy moved from Clarion County to Beaver Valley, Hickory Township, Forest County, circa 1862. They remained in Forest County the rest of their lives. Nancy was living with her daughter Susanna at Neilltown in Forest County by 1880.3,14,16,17
