Posted on: Stark Co. Oh Query Forum Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/USA/Oh/Stark/11961 Surname: GUGGESBERG, WODTLY ------------------------- Thank you Janet, perhaps you can help just one step farther? John Christopher WODTLY was married to a Margareta (assume to be in Germany or Switzerland). John & Margareta had children: Florence, Ida, Mary, Anna, Ernest, and John. All of the children except Florence and Ida were born in Massillon in the 1870's & 80's. Margareta died and John C. needed someone to take care of children and so married Mary Ann GUGGESBERG on August 07, 1888. Mary Ann signed her marriage license as Maria. She had a sister named Elizabeth who was a dressmaker in Switzerland. Mary Ann wove carpets on a loom as a hobby. She died in Akron. Has your cousin done any Woodtli research? Where might I start? Thanks for the info. Look forward to hearing from you. Barbara
