Major Memorial Funeral Home is now Major Erickson and they have a lot of their old records. There could be some info there.

Was wondering if the Weitzel family is connected at all to the George and Katie Beisel family. They were also Germans from Russia and lived in Mason City. Found Lizzie Weitzel's name on a baptism certificate for my Great Uncle Alexander Beisel at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Mason City.

Good luck with your search!!

Spellings over time have also merged into an anglo-saxon spelling of "Whitesell" but your earlier names probably would not have. Just something to think about.

GunterFamily2011 — 2012-03-19 00:30:31Z

Also one of the surnames I'm finding as well is "Whitesell," or "Whitsel."

Hi,
I too am looking for information about them, and Anna Sophronia (Fronich?). Catharine Weitzel and her mother are direct maternal ancestors of mine! :)

I am wondering who I should ask about them, being as I am lucky enough to find I live in a neighboring county! I added a picture to Catharine Weitzel, where she and Starr got married, in the Brick Reformed Church. If you have any idea who I might try and contact, look up, or visit about them, help me lead the way! :)

Feel free to send me a private message! Thanks,

Looking for any info on Weitzels from Frank, Russia

b7389842 — 2012-02-13 15:30:56Z

I am descended from Henrich(Henry) Weitzel born in 1864 in Frank, Saratov, Russia. I believe he had a brother named Conrad as per a ship register.

I would like to trace the line all the way back to the first settler in Frank. To find where in Germany they came from. I've seen documents that a Johann Georg Weitzel was family #11 in the First Settlers List of Frank. But I'm not sure if that's my relative. It seems many families moved between colonies and there are a couple Weitzels from Norka, etc. I don't think they're related to me.

I've also seen documents spelling the name Wetzel, Wettzel, and Weitzel for Johann. I would also like to get an accurate spelling for when I venture into Hesse Germany, if I am indeed related to him.

Thanks.

Hello my name is Tracy McNichols, formally Weitzel. I beleive that my grandfather was either Harry or Henry Weitzel. I don't know much about my Weitzel family because my father who name was, James Frederick Weitzel Sr., told me that his father dies when he was 5 yrs old in Pennsylvania. Not sure of what. My father has two sister and one brohter who names are, Lloyd Weitzel, Shirley Weitzel, Skeeter Weitzel. I have four sisters and one brother, whoes names are, Tammy, Tina, Tabitha, Tandy, and James Frederick Weitzel Jr. My brother has two children, Adreyanna and James Frederick Weitzel III. His son is the only direct son left to carry on the Weitzel name in our family. My sister Tina has a son Richard Wayne Weitzel also to carry on the name. If you have any more information it would be great to compare. Maybe we are related somehow.

Thank you for your help. I believe the Edmund Ader that you found is the correct Edmund. Perhaps he was farming the land for the ladies listed in the household. I will have to do further research to determine if there was any relationship between the families. Also, thank you for directing me to the Kentucky marriages. I hadn't even used that resource on Ancestry. There are so many databases anymore it is hard to keep track of them.

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

maxellxl2 — 2008-03-01 17:58:48Z

I found that my guess for Edmonds wife Elizabeth's last name was wrong and that the Kentucky marriage index showed the last name as Reeves and they were married 24/25 Dec 1856 in Madison Co, KY.

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

maxellxl2 — 2008-02-25 19:38:01Z

This is just a guess and maybe a wild goose. Was Edmond married to Elizabeth Golden? If so then I found him in 1860 in Richmond, Madison Co.,Kentucky. He is listed as Edmond Aders with wife Elizabeth, son James W., age 2 and son Albert 3 months. Also living with them are Martha Broughton 57,Catherine Golden 85, Dicy Golden 57. They live next to James S. Golden 56, and his family.

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

dmorri — 2008-02-24 06:31:51Z

From what I have been told by other Andrews researchers is Levi and David were brothers and they married sisters. My great grandfather William and brother Edmond must have been farmed out to relatives. I have never located them in the 1850 census and, Edmond's obit states that his mother died when he was a baby. He was born in 1835. William's granddaughter wrote in her family history that they knew nothing of William's parents but, he had one sister Elizabeth who married a Fusselman and moved to Illnois. Descendants of David are the ones who told me that they believed Levi was the father of William,Edmond and Elizabeth. If only I could find William and Edmond in the 1850 census either in Indiana or Kentucky, I would be happy.

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

maxellxl2 — 2008-02-23 18:54:25Z

I afraid I have very little to add. From my notes I have that Elizabeth Anders Fusselman died 3 Nov 1911 in Adams Co.
Illinois and is buried in Shiloh cemetary Plainsville, Adams, Ill. I can only guess that Levi and Louisa are her parents because they seem to be at the same place at the same time. I also noticed that Elizabeth had a son named Daniel Levi and a daughter Louisa. Do you have anything on Levi's family? It seems he lived very close to a David and David A. Anders. Levi's Father and brother maybe? They live in Hendricks in 1830 and Addison in 1840.

My grandparents arrived in America from Russia in 1908. My father was born in Minnesota in 1918. He and his family lived most of their live in Mason City, Iowa. I have not found the name Fusselman/Fosselman in any of my ancesty information.

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

dmorri — 2008-02-19 05:24:23Z

I know this reply is almost two years later but, I am still researching Elizabeth Anders (Andrews)Fusselman. If she is indeed the daughter of Levi Anders (Andrews), her mother is Louisa Parish. According to her brother Edmond's obit, he was born in 1835, his mother died when he was a tiny baby and his father remarried. If Levi is the father of Elizabeth, William P. and Edmond then, the boys must have been farmed out to relatives or grand parents. I have never found either son in the 1850 census. I keep trying. I just read a news item from a 1914 Kokomo, IN paper where Martin Parish a relative had paid a visit to William's son, Frank Andrews living in Hemlock, a rural town in Howard County, IN. Have you found any more information? Sorry it took so long to answer.

?? Weitzel, husband of Stella Myrtle Gibson

Seeking information on the family of Stella Myrtle GIBSON (1885-1971) who married someone by the name of ?? WEITZEL. Stella was the daughter of Thomas Martin Gibson and Ada Lizzie Negley and died in Butler Co., PA, Stella may have been born in Allegheny Co., PA or in Butler Co., PA. Stella is a 2 X great granddaughter of Alexander NEGLEY.

What was the full name of Stella’s husband?

When and where was Stella’s husband born and when and where did he die?

Did Stella and her husband have any children?

Willing to share information.

Re: Conrad Weitzel

J_Sinnwell — 2007-06-18 05:43:22Z

According to a 1923 City Directory for Mason City, Iowa, there was a Conrad Weitzel (wife Elizabeth) living a 30 - 15th St. NE. There is another Elizabeth Weitzel listed. I believe her to be Conrad and Elizabeth's daughter. Her occupation is listed as, "Helper T S Delaware" She was boarding at 1603 North Pennsylvania. This would be a couple houses away from her parents. Conrad and Elizabeth are not listed in the next directory I have, which is for 1950. Hope this helps.

Joanne, Sorry I've taken so long to reply. Your grandfather is not my grandfather. Mine died in the 1960s.

I now live in Katy Texas, a suburb of Houston. Have been here for over 30 years. I grew up in a suburb of Dundalk called Watersedge - an idyllic place to grow up.

Won't be back in Baltimore probably - all my family has either passed away or moved to other cities.

Thanks for your information. Hope you have success in your family search.

Warmly,

Elaine

Hi There Elaine,
Nice of you to email me about the Weitzel Family.
My Grandfather was a real card at times. He was always
hurting someone. You could said that my Grandfather was
a very hurtful man. If you give me your phone number
I can give you a call and tell you some of the things about him. He lived with us until Aug of 1969.

Here is my email address so you can just email me.

Elaine are you living in Baltimore, Md? I am in Jacksonville
Florida now , But I am coming up to Baltimore in July.

I still miss Baltimore a lot. I use to live on a street called Janney Street. That was in Hightown.

Well I will let you go for now. Hope to hear from you soon.
Take care and have a great nite.

Joanne

My father (who passed in 2005 at age 91) spoke of an Uncle Jake and it seems he had a lot of brothers and sisters. I now wish I had written down all he told me about is family!

Thanks for the information!

Sounds like your grandfather could be my great grandfather. I heard stories about my grandfather that he was cheating on my grandmother and that they subsequently divorced. Unheard of in the 1920s. Any idea what he did for a living?

Thanks for the information!

Hey Elaine,
My G Grandfather was Harry Weitzel, And my Grandfather
was Robert William Weitzel. My Grandfather had a son
name Kenton Lee Weitzel. My Uncle Lee was born in 1917.
I think that my Uncle Lee was born in Va.

But at the same time my Grandfather was haveing kids with my Grandmother in Maryland.

My Grandfather used two last names because he had two ladys
haveing kids with him at the same time. He use Weitzel
and DeHaven at the same time. But my Grandfather was born
as a Weitzel. And his father was Harry Weitzel That is all I got on his side of the family. My Grand dad was a real player with the ladys . He was a real card in his younger days.

I need to ask my Uncle Michael more about my Grandfather.
You see my Uncle Mike was a cop for Baltimore City for 43
years, So he would know more about my Grandfather then any
one. I do know that my Grandfather was in jail years ago.

I will be going back up to Baltimore in July maybe I can talk to my Uncle then.

My new email is Murry298@comcast.net

Diane, I don't know if you still looking since this was posted five years ago but I just recently started on my family tree and William and Elizabeth are my gggrandparents. Their daughter, Emma is my ggrandmother, and she was married to my ggrandfather William R. Early who was born in Pike Co. in 1861. From my research I've found that Elizabeth Andrews spelled her last name "Anders" and I believe her father was Levi Anders(Andrews). Does this match what you have?

Re: Fusselman/Fosselman - Weitzel connection

maxellxl2 — 2006-11-15 16:42:46Z

Bettyann, Thanks for your quick reply. I've found a long list of Fusselman's here on rootsweb especially one tree done by a member of the Probst/Brobst family that goes back to a Balthasar Vossellmann b.abt 1601. Do you have anything on Elizabeth Anders ancestors? I'm guessing that Levi Anders is her father by the fact that he was in the Shelby Co.IN 1830 census which is where Elizabeth was born and it showed that he had a daughter that would be Elizabeth's age. Also he appears in the 1850 census for Brown Co. IN which is where Elizabeth was married. Even though the 1850 census shows Levi's wifes name as Hellen, she is far too young to be Elizabeth's mother. In other databases I have found that a Levi Anders was married to Louisa Parrish and I believe this is Elizabeth's mother.
