Another take on these guys:

(1) Hance PINKELIE Sr. age 41 arrived 16 Sept 1736 with Hance Jr. age 18, and Petter PINKELIE age 32; assume the two older men had wives & children with them, unrecorded; assume Hance Sr. & Petter were brothers. [Note: Hans Michael immigrated at Phila. 26 Aug 1735 from South Carolina — Hans PINKLEY, age 23 -- assume his ship landed S.C. first, then proceeded to Phila.; he had a manumission certificate that gave his father as Hans.]

(2) A Johannes BINKLER / BENKELKER arrived in the ship Mortonhouse on 11 Sept 1729; no age given. This could be another BINGGELI facing an English scribe. Could he be the Johannes BINKLEY who m. Margaretha WIESBACH?

(3) Rupp's Thirty Thousand Names, page 436 [p. 438 in 1880 edition], makes a reference to the arrival of "Johannes BINCKLEY" and "Felix LANDIS" during 1719; no source is given for this statement. LANDIS shows up in taxes but BINKLEY doesn't appear in taxes, or lists of first owners, nor in the extensive discussion of Mennonite immigration given in Eshleman's ...Annals of Pioneer Settlers...; BINKLEY's first appearance in original records is 1737 in the deeds book when he gets the mill from Felix LANDIS.

Another thought from peter@wallandbinkley.com:

I've got a little on Hans Michael Binkley that may not be common. (In
these notes I've replaced o-umlaut with oe):

From Annette Kunselman Burgert, _Eighteenth Century Emigrants from
German-Speaking Lands to North America, vol. II: The Western Palatinate_
(Publications of the Pennsylvania German Society, Vol. XIX; Birdsboro,
Penn.: The Pennsylvania German Society, 1985).

[This book tries to connect passenger lists with European parish
registers, which often have entries like "went to America"]

p. 51: no. 40 [his entry in the Oliver's register, I think] Binckle,
Michael age 23 Moersbach

Oliver, 1735 [=ship]; S-H, I.153-154 [= Strassburger & Hinke, Penn.
German Pioneers, 3 vols (1934)

European Records:

Lambsborn Reformed KB [=Kirchenbuch]:

Hans Binckeli and wife Barbara of Moerschbach had:
Joh. Michael bp. 12 June 1712
Conf. 1726: Johann Michael Binckel, sone of Hans Binckel from Moerschbach.

Kreb, "Pennsylvania Dutch Pioneers", in Boyer, 158: "Michael Binckle
(Benckle), son of Hanns Binckli of Moersbach, 'went to America' (about
1734). The family was of Swiss origin - the official papers mention an
aunt of the emigrant who died in Canton Berne."

(end of notes)

So this Hans Michael Binkley came from a family who had moved to the
Palatinate from Switzerland, probably after the 30 Years War when this
area was devastated and attracted settlers. I think his name suggests
that his family had acculturated to the Rhineland: in that area you
always find boys christened with Johannes as their first name, and they
use their middle name, as Hans Michael seems to have done (and the same
for girls, who get Maria as their first name). I didn't see this naming
pattern in the Swiss records.

Has anyone else seen Burgert's book? Have any more in this series been
published?

The name Binkley is of Alamanic origin, probably being Binggelli,
Bingli, etc. before it was distorted into it's present form to make it
sound English, which took time as there are 40 odd variations of spelling
the name during the first 100 years in America. The Alemannic were a
group of German tribes that put in a lot of time making life interesting
for the Roman Empire during the Third Century, and for some time after
They settled in a section of South West Germany and Switzerland, and in
later years, when Luther and Zwingli appeared, they gave considerable
time and attention to changing the religious outlook of that period and
day.
