Harshbarger line: End of the Harshbarger line?

I sure have a long list of people in the Harshbarger line, in one convoluted fashion or another, whom I can't trace further back.  Some are from Virginia, some from the Maryland and what became West Virginia area, and many were in Pennsylvania in early times. Some came from England, some from  Germany and Switzerland.  This is too wide of a geographic area, too many generations in time, and too expensive for me to possibly be able to find all of these people.  I don't know if I'll ever find any of these ancestors.  But by posting their names and what little I know about them, I am at least honoring them, and leaving bread crumbs for other researchers, perhaps. 

John Gordon, father of Alice who married John Wyatt. Alice was born about 1752.
Anna Jackson born about 1630, wife of William Wyatt of Virginia
Jane widow Curtis, wife of Nicholas Cocke.  She was born about 1627.
wife of Thomas Edmondson  Thomas died 1715 in Essex County, Va.
Susannah Bryant, wife of John Boughan.  She died 1726.
Mary, wife of James Boughan, 1640-1683
Thomasin widow Harper married James Boughan
wife of Thomas Allaman. He lived 1630-1706

Matthew Farmer 1743-1835, died in Miami County, Ohio and his wife Margaret
Caleb Bennett 1765-1841 died Miami County, Ohio and his wife Ann Catherine Wilson
Joseph Kirk 1754-1830 and his wife Sarah
Daniel Shultz 1730-1820

Anna Este, wife of Hubert Brower.  She lived 1694-1786

Christian Bracker, father of Eva Bracker.  She lived 1730-1800.
father of Johann Georg Harter.  Georg lived 1727-1800
Margareth, wife of John Menter.  He lived 1767-1821.
Margaret wife of Leonard Dulibon or Tulipan. He lived  1730-1786
wife of Franz Dulibon or Tulipan. He died Lancaster County, Pa.
Anna Elizabeth, wife of Johann Gebhard Huebschmann.  He lied 1713-1771
Anna Marie Geise, wife of Daniel Kraemer.  She died 1813 in Centre County, Pa.
Elisabeth, wife of Matthias Kraemer  He died  1747
Johann Georg Drach, father of Maria Anna Drach.  She lived 1706-1755.
Anna Barbara, wife of Johann Peter Behney.  he lived 1715-1784.
Maria Otilia Weiler, wofe of Peter Jacob Fehler, born about 1711.

It's possible that some of these people didn't actually come to America.  It's also possible that I've not included people on this list who actually did come, but I don't know enough to make that guess.  I'm thinking of possibly a father for Joseph Kirk and parents for Sarah, for instance.  Also many of these dates are "about" dates, for could be off by a few years.  I have little to go on, and much to learn!
