Hi IVYPEERY!
I've just sent an email loaded with photos and info, perhaps too much; I may have to throw some ballast overboard in order for it to get through your firewall, but I just wanted to alert you to look for my email and let me know if it does, or does not, make it through. This should be the beginning of a long dialogue, as I think we have much to share.

Hello, I found you wonderful page, but I would like to ask you, if you can tell me if you have the following
Peter Wetzel, Sr., who his parents were, and siblings.
he md. Mary Pauff, and one of their kids, I come down from Peter Wetzel Jr, b. 1809, md. Matilda Davis, and they had Mary E Whetsel, md a Peery.
No one seems to have this line.
we think that Peter W. Sr.., came from George Wetzel, then his dad was Rev.George Wetzel, md. Maria Mary, etc., 1731 born.
but I did borrow a couple of your pages, to see if information connects.
so many Wetzels for sure, I am female, 82, and hope you reply.
thanks you could email me fenske51@aol.com

Hi Ivy Peery, or...!
Sorry I could not respond right away. And now that I'm loading these photos in, I hope this gets through to you!
You are hittting a nerve in my Family Tree, since I've severed the tie I originally had to Capt John & Mary Bonnett Wetzel/Whetzell (Weitzell, in the marriage record pasted below), their parents, etc.; my original sources have come into question, so now I am obsessive about confirming and documenting my sources of information.
That said, I certainly do have your Peters. Peter Sr and Mary appear to have moved from Carroll County, MD, where they had their first two or three children [Elizabeth, Eva(?), and George(1793-95)], to Wytheville/Wythe County, VA, where Mary, John Frederick, Samuel, Anna, Sarah, Sophia, Michael, your Peter jr, and Jesse were born (1797-1811).
I actually spent a couple afternoons in the Wytheville courthouse records cellar a few years ago copying and photographing a number of records- marriages, births/deaths, probate records, and cemetery- some of which should be visible in my on-line tree. Unfortunately, I have not gotten them all posted. I haven't relied on the on-line version of the tree, but corruptions in my files sort of forced me into loading my file to ancestry.com in order to try to sort it out. I've also spent some time in the Augusta County records building, Pauff material there, too.
I'll send you an invitation, if that helps you navigate it better, or at least get better access to it. Someone sent me an invitation once, and it did make things a little easier, as we collaborated to resolve an issue between us.
I'm excited you wrote! Until you mentioned your lineage back to the Peters, I had no children for Thomas and Mary Wetzel Peery. Well, actually I still don't. Would you mind sending me your lineage back to them? I'm trying to fill in all of those cousins, in part so I can better assess some of the FTDNA information I'm getting. [I've done about all of the DNA testing I can do at FTDNA, for the time being.]
Note in the 1810 census below that Caleb Perry, family of 5, is next door neighbor of Charles Pauff in Augusta County, Virginia, just up the state line a couple counties from Wythe; coincidence?
My file shows Charles Pauff/Poff as a brother of Mary Wetzel Peery. I have 'Perry' overlapping 'Peery', Do you?
Rev. Henry Wetzel, an A.L. minister in Augusta County, VA, family of 7 in the 1860 census, shows up a lot, but I haven't seen George, father of Peter sr accused of being a minister. I'll look for that.
I'm generating a Genealogy Report, still grinding away, so I'll send it in a separate email. It may or may not help, but I've started it back 4 generations from Peter Sr. I hesitate to share it, because I fear there may be some errors in those generations, which is also where I severed my own ancestral line momentarily.
Please let me know if you receive this email, along with about a dozen photos. I have more; sometimes I don't know when to stop.
Sincerely,
john christy wetzel
Richmond, VA

Years ago the Peery name was Pieri, Pirie, Peary, Peari, so many things, but mine is Peery,
even at school my records, they spelled it with the two r's.
nothing I could go, they were year books, and other stuff too
what I do if a document has it wrong, I just put a note in my research they spelled it wrong and should be this way.
I do it for all surnames, remember, people could not spell when they did the census reports, nor the manifests records, they wrote it like it sounded.
goodnite.
