1782 - The following is a memoir told on 11 JUL 1782, by Peter Binckely to Sister Cramer, and can be found at the Moravian Archives in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in VOL. 4, page 1824.
"He was born 02 MAR 1704, in the village of Guckesberg (Guggisberg) in Canton Bern, Switzerland. His parents were Christian Binckely and Elizabeth, maiden name Burg (Burri). In his ninth year his father passed out of Time. On account of poverty, our departed Brother had been obliged to seek his support from others. He was already in his sixth year.
In his thirteenth year his mother moved to Alsace and in the following year his brother came for him, and he lived with his brother for three years, herding his cattle. Then he served another farmer for two years. The latter advised him to learn the trade of shoemaker but he had been in that work only fourteen days when he engaged himself to an innkeeper as a driver. The large size of the farm and the many opportunities for doing evil led him to be concerned about the salvation of his soul.
In order to get away from that place, he married Anna Maria Werley but remained in the neighborhood, that is the Steinthal District, for twelve years, supporting his family by cutting wood in the forest and burning charcoal. In the eighth year after his marriage, he and another man, with whom he was cutting grass, were struck by lighting as they took shelter under a beech tree from the rain and he was so badly burned that for several weeks he was confined to his bed. This occurrence delayed for four years his plan of going to America but meanwhile he associated himself with the awakened people of the neighborhood.
In the year 1736 he and several other awakened families emigrated to America, reaching Philadelphia toward the end of September; in the same fall he went to Warwick, PA and remained there for two years. From there he moved to the Codorus (a township in York County Pennsylvania), nine miles above Yorktown. Here he was associated with the Separatists, and heard for the first time of the pious Count Zinzendorf, who, however, had returned to Europe. Soon after, for the first time, he heard a Brother give free witness to the full atonement for sin made by Jesus, which was very comforting to our departed Brother, who hitherto had not listened with open ears and heart to the doctrine of the suffering and death of Jesus, which alone could make men holy. He quietly sought every opportunity to attend the services of the Brethren, where he frequently heard Brother Spangenberg preach, whereby he received some blessing.
In September, 1748 his wife died, after a married life of about twenty-four years, blessed with fourteen children, of whom six are still living. After almost 5 months of raising 13 children by himself, Peter married Maria Margaretha Schmel, nee Geiger, on Feb. 3, 1749.
In 1749, he married the widow Anna Margaretha Schemel, maiden name Geiger, and in this second marriage God gave them nine Children of whom six are still living.
In the year 1750, he was received into the Unity (the Moravians), and in 1752 attended the Holy Communion for the first time. In 1763, he moved to Monocacy, to be nearer a schoolhouse. But as there were only one hundred acres of land that did not have water, he sold the farm in 1772, and moved with his to Wachovia, [Wachovia was the name given to the tract of land maintained by the Moravian Church in NC - it is the area that now makes up 2/3 of present day Forsyth County.] and established himself there, three miles from Bethania, NC.
1793- From Sister Cramer the following: "From his life here, it can be said, according to his own testimony that he loved the Savior and in spite of failings and errors, it was his intention to rejoice in his heart. That his joy was in the word of God and in the services of the church, was manifest, for when, he because of advanced age, he could no longer ride a horse, he constantly walked the three miles from his home in order to attend the services in the midst of all the difficulties which surrounded, him he permitted nothing to disturb his association with the congregation, and often said the Savior was his one and all the only Comfort and Support and how constantly he longed to be at home with Him. All who knew him, honored him as an upright and peace-loving man.
"As late as the eleventh of this month, he came to service, and as usual, he was happy and affectionate. The same evening he had a hard fall that apparently revived an injury which he had received in a fall last spring, and from which he seemed to have recovered. The same evening, he took to his bed and it soon became evident that this was to be the cause of his home going. The pain which he suffered was much increased by a severe cough, yet, he was bright and content, when the blessedness of being with Jesus was pointed out to him. He said he did not know what the plan of the Savior was, but he was entirely ready to submit to His will, and that he could gladly say that nothing disturbed his mind.
"On the day before his home going, he was visited by several of the Brethren from here; he was quite cheerful and affectionate and appeared much pleased by the verses sung for him, during which he folded his hands together. He remained conscious to the end, and passed away gently and peacefully toward evening on the twentieth of the month. His age eighty-nine years, five months and eighteen days. He is now in peace.
"Of his twenty-three children by his first and second marriages, eleven are still living. He left sixty-two grandchildren and fifty-six great-grand-children, so that, as far as we can learn, the entire number of his still living children and children's children is one hundred and twenty-nine."
