Jon, Tom & John
Jon, you're my hero!!!! We indeed have a match of 35 loci. And in addition, another match with John Christy Wetzel. I am sorry that I don't have more time to devote to this endeavor right now, but I am looking forward to working on this when I am finished my cemetery book. In the mean time, I looked up John's tree online and found it http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/w/e/t/John-C-Wetzel/TREE/0001tree.html Based on the information in the tree, he fits into my tree and we are 8th cousins. I know I have forwarded my tree before, but I am going to send another so that you guys can try to plug into it.
The problem is that a tree with 7 generations produces an outline descendant tree that is 43 pages long, so I put it in an outline form with minimal information. Hans Martin WETZEL and Jacbo WETZEL are brothers, both sons of ? WETZEL
? WETZEL ---brothers---
Hans Martin WETZEL b abt 1700 Jacob WETZEL b abt 1711
John WETZEL b 1733 m. Mary BONNETT Johannes WETZEL, Sr. b 10-30-1746 m. Catharina DRUCKENMILLER
Martin WETZEL b Dec 1757 m. Mary COFFLE/COFFIELD Peter WETZEL, Sr. b 5-34-1776 m. Elizabeth GRUBER
George WETZEL b 1785 m. Priscill DUNCAN Peter WETZEL, Jr. b 12-4-1805 m. Magdalena SCHNEIDER
Henry WETZEL b 1812 in WV m. Mary BROOKOVER Elias S. WETZEL b 2-22-1848 m. Lydia H. HEPLER
John WETZEL b 8-23-1839 m. Mary Ellen MATTHEWS Elias H. WETZEL b 11-8-1884 m. Louisa ROMBERGER
Christy Robert WETZEL b 10-28-1895 WV m. Melda VARNEY Naomi Edna WETZEL b 1-4-1911 m. Emerson Loose TRUMP
Edwin Paul WETZEL b Merlyn Henrietta SPRING David A. TRUMP m. Joan E. BEHLER
John Christy WETZEL b 10-16-1949 Michele TRUMP b 3-23-1964
As you can see, we are 8 generations from the common ancestor, so we are 8th cousins. I believe that you are both related to me through Hans Martin WETZEL, who went a little farther afield than any of my ancestors did. (considering I'm the only one in the tree on the right above that lived anywhere other than PA) Maybe Peter WETZEL b 1769 is a brother of Martin b. 1757 m. Mary BONNETT. Jean Jaques BONNETT, father of Mary BONNETT was mentioned in the book "Pioneers of Old Monocacy" by Grace L. Tracey & John P. Dern. This puts them in MD at some point if he is considered a "pioneer". Also, Hans Martin WETZEL, Jr. , brother of John WETZEL b 1733 and s/o Hans Martin WETZEL b. abt 1700 baptized 5 children at Monocacy Lutheran Church in Frederick Co., MD. Maybe Peter WETZEL b. 1769 is a grandson of Hans Martin WETZEL, Jr.
Maybe with this information, you can zero in on the connection between you two and John C. WETZEL.
