I think that the Willet and Wilheit family are two separate families. I remember that the name Wilheit was clearly spelled out like that in the church records.

When I look at the dates, Hans Matthaeus Wilheit could almost also be a son of Johann Michael Wilheit. Johann Michael Wilheit's first wife Anna Dorothea Mueller died in 1705 in Schwaigern and he remarried Anna Maria Hengstler on 16 Feb 1705. Johann Michael also had a son Mathaeus who sold a tract of land on Muddy Run near Robinson River to Adam Wayland on 15 March 1764. (Culpeper County Deeds, Vol. III 1762-1765) However, his wife's name was Mary. Maybe she was his second wife? Does anyone know more about this Mathaeus?
