Surnames: Wagner, Welte, Lear, Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Wg.2ADE/3830 Message Board Post: My family records list a Valentine Wagner that was born about 1812 in Bavaria, Germany. He married Eva Lear, born about 1813 also in Bavaria, Germany. My family records only list a daughter Catherine Wagner born 26 Nov. 1847 in Brown Co, Ohio. Catherine married John Welte, (my GGGrandfather, born 1842 in Switzerland). If any one has information on any of these please post a reply.
