So, per the kerchner site, Theobald = Dawalt in English.
Hmm.
Thanks for the connection.
Now, back to file merging.......
I hear the Dragnet theme in the back of my mind - dum, de, dum, dum or
some such.

After reading countless messages concerning the names Leonard Kegel's
sons, I started searching to see if I could come up with something that
might help us. I found the following site that explains the naming of
the German and PA German children. The address is
www.kerchner.com/nickname.htm . After looking at the Americanized
versions of some of the names, go to the very bottom of the page and
click on German Naming Customs. I think that will explain why we might
have 2 Johns or Georges or whatever in this family. Hope it helps
someone.

To those of you new to the Cagle list, these issues have been
discussed many times before. We at one time discussed how German names
were changed over a period of time, once these people settled in
America. To start with many were illiterate and there for couldn't
even spell their own surname. If your name was Kegel, and someone in a
record spelled it in a different way, you were none the wiser. First
names were changed as well such as Johan to John, Leonhart to Leonard.
We had discussed how Dewalt , may have became David. I don't
remember
what we determined the name Theobald, to be. When this list was
started about six years ago there weren't as many resources on the
Internet
as there are now. I think with some research on the Internet we can
determine what some German first names became in America. There are
still people living today in America and Germany with the
surname
Kegel, and I have seen Cagley as a surname. I don't know if all
of
these surnames started out as Kegel, and then changed into a few
similar
surnames.
It is still open to debate as to who all were children of Leonhart
Kegel, our immigrant ancestor. Keep in mind however that he was born
abt. 1684, may have started
fathering
children as young as seventeen. He may also have continued to have
children
into his late 60's or early 70's.
Also we know he was married more than once, added to the fact that
many early records are very sparse. Earl
