Elizabeth WETZEL/WHITSELL's parents were Peter WETZEL/WHITSELL and Anna METZ. After a number of years, I just recently found their names on an ancestor chart in a small library in Lawton, OK.
I would appreciate hearing from anyone who might could help me with the parents & siblings of John M. BICKLE. Also would like more information on parents & siblings of Elizabeth WETZEL/WHITSELL. Will gladly share what I have on the BICKLEs and my husband's branch of the tree. Thank you in advance. Vickie vbickle@seacove.net
I don't know how far back marriage records or birth records go, but I would love to locare hard copies of both for my Lausch's. I thank you so very much for any help you may be able to send my way.
Sincerely, Cathy
On September 6, 1905, John W. married Anna Zweizig (1864-1942). On the marriage certificate, her father is listed as Reverend Benjamin D. Zwiezig.
The family has always referred to Anna Zweizig Felty as "Cousin Annie". I know there must be a connection here somewhere between the Zweizigs and the Shollenbergers, but I can't seem to find it.
Appreciate any help you give. Will respond in kind. Feel free to email me at rgilill369@aol.com.
Thanks......Gil

Abraham died in 1802 and his wife died 30 years later. It is believed that they were both buried in the small private Siegfried Cemetery on the north side of what is now Main Street, at the western end of Bath. However, many of the headstones are now missing or in such poor condition that the names on them are illegible. Is there any researcher out there in cyberspace who has found their true burial place?

Recently I found, on the Mormon Ancestral file, a man named
John Weisner, the son of John & Sarah Kutz-Weisner, of Berks Co, PA and he had a brother named Franklin and another brother named Cyrus. So what I need is a verification of this theory, and any extra info on the Kutz and Weisner families
at: http://www.berksregofwills.com/search/
is a reference to the estate of John WESNER of Maidencreek dated 1878
David may be named George David Sousley since he also had a son of this name. The son was born about 1789 in Pennsylvania. He married Isabella Cochran, born about 1790, the daughter of Robert Cochran. This line of Cochrans comes from Chester County, Pennsylvania. Both the Cochrans and the Sousleys were in Fleming County, Kentucky by 1806, the year George David married Isabella.
The 1800 Berks County, Pennsylvania census lists a George Sousley with 2 sons under age 10, and 3 daughters under age 10.
Does anyone have information about David Sousley or George Sousley or George David Sousley?
I am also researching the Cochrans of Cochranville and Chester County, Pennyslvania.
I came across your entry and was wondering whether you have any information on the Starr lineage... Specifically a Caroline A. or Carol Ann Star(r) who married a William Wilson in the latter half of the 1800's (my great grandparents). William Wilson was born in Philadelphia probably about 1845-55 and there is no further information about her, although it is likely that she was born in Berks or surrounding counties. Their daughter, Ruth Ann Wilson Bilger, was my grandmother settles in Wiekert, Pa. She was a school teacher in the early 1900's before she married.
Anything here sound familiar? You are the only Starr's I've found around here.
At this time it appears that Phillip Henry PROBST may not be whom I am looking for. My GGrandfather should have been born abt. 1880.
The story I was told is that when my PROBST married a SCOTT, he was in the shipping business. Later he grew tobacco and also raised dogs somewhere in Virginia. Not much to go on at this time. Hopefully when my requests for documents come back I'll have some more answers. Thank you for your time and information. If I find a connection to your line I will send the information your way.

Please share the information you have. I have several reports of 10 pages or so with details of the families from the 1681 on. If I can figure out how to scan it, I could e-mail it to you. Let me know what information you have. I'm interested in having my information confirmed or diputed.
