Most genealogists identify Ludwig as Casper's father and Anthony as
Ludwig's father. However, from the Henckel - Teter Connection, it
appears that there is no direct evidence of those connections. That
source states:
"It was also determined (by Dr. Burt Brown Barker and those associated
with him in extensive research in Germany) that the father of Matthias
Henckel was a Caspar Henckel also of Alllendorf-Ad-Lumbda. He was born
in 1576; died March 2, 1651, age 75 years. This apparently identified
the great-grandfather of Rev. Anthony Jacob Henckel.
Here seems to be the end of the line, or it probably would be better to
state the beginning of the known line of Rev. Anthony Jacob Henckel so
far as direct evidence is concerned. However, in a preceding generation
of this family, a Ludwig Henckel was found who was born about 1535 and in
the next preceding generation an Anthony Henckel who was born about 1500
A.D. This research effort is not only remarkable, but (it) is astounding
that any family outside of Royalty could lift the veil so far in the
distant past. Great credit is due not only to officers of the national
Henckel Family association, but also to the vast number of descendants
who, taking great pride in their ancestry, have engaged in local research
that has made this record possible."
