I've done [quite a bit of] DNA testing. I don't really research the STEHLE surname. I just wanted to verify if Johann George DECKELMANN did indeed marry a second time and to whom. From what I can gather it appears to be that ... Johann George DECKELMANN married second Magdalena STEHLE 1863-1864. They had four children together: Anna (b c1864 NY), Frances (b c1866 NY), Victoria (b c1870 NY) and Francis J (b c1873 NY). Magdalena STEHLE b 17 Sep 1835 Germany, d 11 Apr 1920 NYC, buried 14 Apr 1920 Calvary Cemetery, daughter of Damian STEHLE and Marian HEID. Magdalena married first ------ BAYER and they had at least one child: Minnie (b c1858 NY). Magdalena had at least one sibling: Fridolin (baptized 4 Mar 1847 Binsdorf, Württemberg, Germany, d 1847). > Date: Fri, 6 Apr 2018 10:16:00 -0400 > From: Debbie <debidub@gmail.com> > > Marshall, > By chance have you done DNA testing?
