Hello Frank, My connection to the Wise family is fairly new to me, so was glad to see your post about the book. Just checked the online catalog of Jefferson County AL library and see that they have it. Another book that they have is by Hubert Wesley Lacy and includes Lacey and Wise families of New Kent and Chesterfield Counties, Virginia. They also have three books about Henry A. Wise (1806-1876) of Virginia. My current info is limited to my line in Butts Co GA which begins with Judith Wise (1798-1839) and ascends through Jacob Wise and Joseph Wise, who fought with Elijah Clark in the Revolution. This library is just 60 miles from my driveway, but seems to be a real hassle to get there for a day of research. I plan to get there between Thanksgiving and Christmas and have attached a copy of your post to my printouts on the books. Do you know anything about the Wises who came to Georgia?

This one is George H. Wise married Ann Bohanan 11-8-1827 Anybody no any more about him?

Still looking for my George Wise of Newcomerstown, Ohio. Because George Wise and Jane King were married 3-7-1799 and I believe my George was born in Abt 1791, I can pretty much rule out that my George is the (Geo. and Jane Wise) and he is not their son either.The George Wise who married Sophia Hammett 11-23-1813 is a closer match of my George of Nctown. Who has the info that can rule out this George?death date?place?

Hi, Amen! I'm looking for information re:Wilhelm V. WEISS. He came to Port of New Orleans in 1855, but I think he had made a trip the year before also. Frank Weihs, in Tacoma, Washington At 12:32 PM 11/2/98 -0500, you wrote: >Is no one searching for WEISS, all I ever see on this page is Wise > > >

Kathy, Sorry, but the names you have don't match anything I have. I don't know that any of my WEIS(S) were ever in NY. If you come across anything further back that looks like a link, keep my name. Maybe we will have something to compare. I hope so. Good luck and HAPPY HUNTING! Penny

Thank you Penny for the response to my WEISS request. The only thing I know so far is that Great X's2 grandfather was Joseph WEISS, born abt 1850. in Germany, where in Germany I do not know, he married a Catherine, I know nothing about her. They had at least 4 children that I know of Joseph born Aug 1880 in New York City, New York died in the Bronx. This is my great grandfather, John, George, and Lou were his brothers. Joseph b; 1880 was married to CAtherine Caroline Foorhs, who was an orphan born about 1899 in New York. I know nothing more of her. They lived in the Bronx. They had the following children Ruth b: 1901 d:1975 New York, Frank B: 1904 d: 1955, Margrette b: 1910 d: 1988, and My grandmother Dorothea Viola b:1912 d: 1993. Does any of these family members of mine sound familiar to anyone searching the WEISS name I could surely use your help. Kathy

Hi Penny, I have Weissert from Baden back to 1805. That is the best I can do.
