Message Board Post:
My Bernard Henry Wessel(s) was born in Germany about 1812. He maried Maria Agnes in Holy
Trinity Church, Cincinnati, Ohio in 1835. According to 1850 and 1860 Census, their
children were John born about 1839, Joseph born about 1841, Philomena (my great
grandmother) born 1844, August born about 1846. Have very little information on John,
Joseph and August or their children who would probably have been born in the 1860s-1880s.
And don't know if Bernard had any siblings.
My Wessel family lived in the Over-the-Rhine area in Cincinnati, Ohio and went to Holy
Trinity and St. Mary churches. Bernard died in 1877 in Cincinnati. If any of your
ancestors might be descended from John, Joseph or August, we might have a connection.
