Sandra and antiscipated participants....just my two cents here, but being involved in our Smothers DNA project...I would like to encourage you to do the 25 marker instead of the 12 marker....this puts your Common Ancestor down to 7 generations, much easier to see better results at 7 generations instead of 14! We cant get past our 4x grandfather so it makes it difficult to try to come up with 14 generations. For example....the lst DNA we had done on 2 TX Smothers....[my brother's still not in] BUT...now the Smothers 1 has 6 matches and NONE of them are Smothers! but they do match on all 12 markers.....I am going nuts trying to figure out how they matched! LOL Nena [I still encourage the DNA though and Family Tree is really the only one that does it in USA and is well documentated and reliable]. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.

It seems like the 3 brothers must go through each family although mine goes like this: 3 brothers left PA together to find new land and they ended up in Kentucky. They got into an argument on the way and took different spellings of their name. Stephen who stayed in Kentucky used Statler and George who came to Indiana used Stateler. I don't know for sure who the other brother was but I think it was Michael who also used Stateler. Stephen said in an interview for the newspaper that his father spelled his name Stradler. A few generations pass and again an argument between brothers ensue over politics and another brother leaves, never to return, he moves to Ohio and spells his name Statler. In my youth my Great Grandfather always said to remember that we were somebody special, we were Pa Dutch. I never knew why he thought that was special but I always believed him. Marva Stateler

Hi List and Sandra Hall, Sandra, I would pay a reasonable price for a copy of the "mapping" you've done. We were briefly in a little town on the Rhine named Speyer, where we excitedly found a "Palatine Museum." Off course, it had closed for the evening. Also, a young Stettler man in Egiwill was shocked when I describe an "alleged Stettler Tree Familie" (not from the Halberts, by the way.) He said his Grandma had the exact same family tree hanging in her home. May I end this little note by saying "Praise the Lord" for all you researchers, especially the late Schuyler Brossman of Rehrersburg Pa, and wonderful genealogist and author Annette Burgert. May you have good luck in your research in 2003, cousins. Kirby Stetler of Ohio ----- Original Message ----- From: Sandra Jones Hall To: STATLER-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, January 14, 2003 11:22 AM Subject: Re: [STATLER] family tales Hi Brandy, What you have is a very common family tradition. There are stories in many families about brothers usually three, who came from Europe. Does it happen that way? Sometimes, much more often, a nuclear family (father, mother and children) emigrate along with other relatives, in-laws, and fellow church members and neighbors. Some of the passenger lists show Statler/Stettler/Stadler men coming as single men. In my Statler research I have found "the brother" story associated with the group of Statlers from Loudoun County, VA. In actuality the father of the brothers was there. The father was Abraham, sons John, Jacob and Abraham. The family connections of the various Statler families is something I have been researching a long time. I have looked at the names of neighbors in America and and others on the same ship. I have found the different groups occasionally associated with some of the same surnames, but not enough to make a connection back to Europe. I have mapped out the towns in Europe from which the known neighbors and in-law emigrated, It looks like a map of the Rhine Valley: From around Mannheim up the river to Canton Bern, Switzerland about thirty mile either side of the river. Currently that land is in three countries, Germany, France, and Switzerland. Hard to zone in on that. ============================== To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237

STATLERs all forms: Hi Jack, It has been several years ago since I tried to assemble the different families and the try to connect them, so this is not fresh in mind. As I gave up before "computer arrived", they have not been entered into anything which I could send by email. Briefly what I have which may be important to you, by generation: All STATLER, 1.Casper b. abt 1740, m. 1765 to Rebecca WALTER. Shade, Somerset, Pa. 2. Samuel 1774, m. 1797 to Magdalena, Shade, Somerset, Pa. 3. Andrew, abt 1816, Shade, Somerset, Pa. All of this info is at LDS IGI which is on-line and in the their Fiche files. IGI they say, is solid by proof using extractions from public records and Wills or anything which PROVES the person LIVED. John L Statler
