still trying to discover any information on Johannes and Mary Weyrauch. haven't been able to find them in the 1840, both d. before 1850, haven't been able to find their burial, could be Cambria, family story says Philadelphia. Johannes naturalized in Centre Co. in 1831, naturalization record is apparently incorrect. he states he is from Bergzabern, Bavaria, but all attempts to find him there have failed. children George? 1800-1810 Caroline 1814 Magdelene 1816 John? 1820 Michael Matthew 1823 Francis John 1826 Jacob 1832 the children, except for Jacob who was b. in Bellefonte, Centre, PA, give their places of birth variously as Germany, Bavaria, and Alsace, and Francis always says Pennsylvania but I believe was born in Alsace. I have found a few tax records, but little else for the early years of the family's time in Centre Co. which was quite short as by 1850 they were in Cambria Co. and kept heading west. if anyone finds anything regarding Weyrauch's by any spelling (there's over 47 variant spellings, not counting the miss-spellings of the name by enumerators) prior to 1850 in Centre Co., I'd love to hear from you.
