MAY have married in Searsmont, ME, as Jeremiah was listed as resident of there, at time of marriage.
According to 1910 US Census for Malden, MA, Mabel MAY have been the Mabel W. Fenner, listed as age 17, daughter of Anna M. Chapin, age 58, both born MA and both sets of parents born MA. Mabel was listed on that record as a "nurse - industrial". Interestingly enough, there is no date of enumeration, but the record is marked "supplemental". On another record for Wellesley, MA in 1910, age 17, Mabel Fenner, listed as a "nurse maid" at the Convalescent Home for the children's hospital (or something like that).. BELIEVE it is the same Mabel listed in both cases. Perhaps she lived in Malden and worked in Wellesley??? Not impossible, just interesting. Needs more work.

NOTE: Date of death is most likely 11-Nov and 23-Nov may actually be date will was proved, as indicated in probate records of New Brunswick. Peter acted as the administrator for Phillip's will. Phillip Henselbekker is one of the "brothers" who settled in New Brunswick, rather than Nova Scotia. The family name was changed to Hanselpacker by Phillip and possibly John or William (Johann or Wilhelm) at one point or another. Phillip made Corporal in the New Jersey Volunteers, 2nd and 4th Battallions under Colonel Buskirk (Loyalists) during the Amer. Rev. War and headed to New Brunswick around 1782/83. Phillip and Conrad were in Captain Ruttan's company of the 4th Battallion. At some point during the war, the 2nd and 3rd Battallions merged to make the 4th. Though I have no specific dates for that merger. He does appear in a muster roll on 14/19-Oct-1781 as a private in Capt. Edward Earle's company of the 4th NJV. When arriving in Sheffield Parish, New Brunswick, Canada, he was with ?Cordelia? and Peter (aged 9), which works with dates for Peter's birth. Not sure about Cordelia as even the source seemed to question whether it was correct.
REF: "Fredericton, New Brunswick, British North America" by Isabel Louise Hill. - - - He was in Fredericton, New Brunswick in 1783, in Ripples, Sunbury County, NB in 1787. A house in Fredericton, often referred to as the Oxford Cottage, is presumed built by Philip in 1783-84. The current house still stands, and is considered the oldest Loyalist built structure in the city of Fredericton. It is at the bottom of the hill upon which the University of New Brunswick sits. It would be located somewhere between Alexandra Street and likely Beaverbrook, were it still standing. I was unable to locate the residence, during my visit in 2002.
Sadly, on 12 Sep 2002, I received a reply to a query I made to UNB. It seems, in October 1995, when the need to upgrade the intersection of University Ave and Beaverbrook Street outweighed any attempt to preserve the structure (which is said to have been in great disrepair), it was demolished.
So, UNTIL October 1995, it WAS the oldest structure in Fredericton, built by a Loyalist. Peter Pacey wrote a letter to the Daily Gleaner, November 7, 1995 and said "I have learned, to my dismay, that the city owned the property and saw no value in saving this decaying monument." He said in October two heritage buildings were lost to the "wrecker's ball".
The house was sold in 1787 to Gabriel Van Horne, then Philip went to Ripples. for a better "chunk" of land. Gabriel Van Horne married Mary Hanselpacker (ref same as on Oxford Cottage).
In Dec of 1769, Philip is listed as a witness to baptism of Willem Rou, and his fellow witness was listed as "Conrath Storr's daughter", giving yet another reason to suspect that Margretha may have been a Stor/Stur/etc. and dau. of Conrad. Appearing again as a witness "couple" for the Jul 1771 christening of Margretha Henselbacker (dau. of William and Cathrina).
SPECIAL NOTE: Though Margaret is listed under Margretha, there is an equal possibility, she could have been born to Catherine. It would almost make more sense, given the name! However, for lack of evidence, I'll not place her under a different spouse as yet.
The Hanselpacker Cemetery in Scotchtown is listed, though the information is only "probable."
Land:
His registration date for his Land Petition in 1787, was 26-Dec-1786. It was Grant Number 92 in "Volume II". Though there was no accompanying plan, the grant was for 200 acres, in Maugerville Township, Sunbury County, New Brunswick, Canada.
He may also have been involved in another Land Petition in 1809, in Sunbury County, see PANB Film F4173.
There is also mention of Longreach, New Brunswick (in History of Digby) as the place where Phillip settled.
In the "Sunbury County Poll Book, September 1, 1795" Philip is listed as his "freehold" and his "adobe" being in Sheffield. His votes for representatives for Sunbury County were for James Glennie, Esq, and Samuel D. Street.
The Hanselpacker family, probably a German surname originally spelled Henselbecker, have some records from Bergen County. Several Hanselpackers are listed as parents, children or witnesses in the Dutch Reformed Church of Paramus in Bergen County, including Philip, Conrad, William, Wilhelm, Willem, Johannis, and Michel. In the Ramapo Lutheran Church records, Bergen County the births of children of the above are all listed including John the son of Philip and Margretha, christened 15 Aug 1773. Philip, Conrad and William are listed in the muster roll for the Fourth Battalion of the New Jersey Volunteers in 1778; thereafter Philip becomes a Corporal, Conrad remains a Private, and William's name occurs no more.
After the war Philip emigrated to NB and soon came to Fredericton where he built the Oxford Cottage, selling it in 1787 and going to his land grant at Ripples in Sunbury County. Philip had four children, probably all with Margretha. He was born in Bergen County, NJ in 1773, went with the family to Ripples. In 1882 he received a grant of 400 acres at Den Brook, Cambridge Parish, Queens Cty and moved there .
John married Julia Balmain 6 Feb 1799 at Gagetown, Queens Cty and had at least 11 children. It was his son William H who married Mary Ann Clark in Canning Parish. They remained there all their lives and William was recorded in the 1861 census.
William and Mary Ann had 10 children. The eldest was Miriam Leah b abt 1829 in Canning Parish, lived with the Coulthard family in Fredericton, and married Samuel Dayton in 1852.

REFERENCES:
1. Family Line Publications, 1935, Early Church Records of Bergen County, New Jersey provides baptismal records of many Hanselpackers, Henselbacker, and Henselbekkers.
2. Muster Rolls in the Canadian Archives at Ottawa can be obtained on microfilm (C11820) through Interlibary Loan.
3. The Provincial Archives of NB at Fredericton have a great deal of material on Philip, John and William including land grant information, wedding records, wills, censuses, and newspapers.
Following are muster dates/locations for Philip, during his time with the NJV:
Enlistment - Staten Island, 4th Battaloin, NJV, 18-Nov-1777 lists date of enlisment as 22-Jan-1777.
2nd muster same 6-Jan-1778
3rd muster same March 1778
4th muster same May 1778
5th muster same July 1778
6th muster same, now a corporal instead of private Aug/Sep 1778
7th muster same possibly Oct 1778
8th muster same 30-Dec-1778
9th muster no place given, poss. Jan 1779
10th muster 4th NJV Hobuck (possibly Hoboken, NJ?) Mar-1779
11th muster same, Powles Hook (Paulus Hook, NJ) 7-Jul-1779
12th muster no place or date, poss. Aug-1779
13th muster 4th NJV Governor's Island 29-Oct-1779
14th muster no place, but Dec-1779
15th muster no place, but 19-Mar-1780
16th muster no place but May 1780
17th muster Staten Island, 14-Jul-1780
18th muster same 11-Sep-1780
19th muster same 2-Dec-1780
20th muster, now a private at Staten Island, 29-Apr-1781
21st muster, still a private, at Staten Island, in Capt. Edward Earle's company, 14/19-Oct-1781
Interestingly, it was in 1781 that it is said the brothers went into the 2nd NJV, see records on is brother, Coenradt (Conrad) for more details.
During the entire listing of musters, he was listed as in the 4th Battalion, commanded by Lt. Col. Abraham Buskirk, in Capt Peter Ruttan's company. Though mention has been made that he may have been a member of the 2nd or 3rd Battalion at other times during the war.
Philip appears in a land grant with 17 others, for land in Little River, in Parish of Sheffield on 7-Jun-1816. What is quite interesting is that same date, land previously promised to him and those 17, totalling 5400 acres, was repealed by the Crown. The date of the original grant was 26-Dec-1786, and the repeal, at least, was signed in Burton, Sunbury County, New Brunswick.
