Hi, I saw the name Weddle on your reunion list. My husband's family's name is
spelled 3 different ways that I have found so far. His dad, Robert Victor Weddell, Sr. was
born in Vincennes, Knox County in 1912(-15?) his grandfather, Harry Beauragard Weddell was
born in 1893 in Lawrence County, Bedford. His great grandfather, Benjamin Kox
"Weddel" was born in Jackson Co. Benjamin's wife is Mary Ann UTTERBACK and
she was born in Jackson County also. Benjamin's father is, "Hiram Weddle"
born abt. 1829 in Tenn according to 1850 census, Hiram's wife is Martha HARMON she was
born abt. 1820 in Ohio. I don't know if your Weddle's are the same as our's
but I would like to know!
My mother's family is SEXTON from Brown County Indiana and there are some
FLEENOR's in that family book. Let me know if you have done the genealogy if you think
these Weddell's fit with your's. Some genealogist's on the web from around
Brown County told me they believe my husband's line of Weddell's is from the
Jackson County line of Weddell's. I hope to find more info than what I have. All the
info I have are the names and dates above. E-mail me at bweddell(a)prodigy.net Thanks!
