Christopher Friederick Hepler and Catherine Hertzel had a son Joseph Hepler born in the 1790's. He was one of 15 children. I have no other information on Joseph Hepler so I don't know if he is the one you are searching for. I descend through his sister Maria Catherine Hepler b.1785 who married Jacob MYERS.Thery came from Lehigh ,Pa and moved to Rowabn Co about 1787. Christopher was the first Hepler and his family to settle in NC Jodie Gee -----Original Message----- From: Dan Stevenson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, February 22, 2001 8:53 PM Subject: [NCDAVIDS] Joseph Hepler (1798-???)
