I am looking for evidence of any Jehles who
are related to my family. My great-great-
great grandfather Fidel Jehle came to America
in 1868 (with his older sister Regina). Fidel
was born in the town of Remetschwil (near the
town of Waldshut) in the Grand Duchy of Baden
(very near the border with Switzerland). I
do not know what the parents' names were, but
the father worked as a nailsmith. There were
6 children: Eduard (who remained in Germany),
Regina b. 1843, Fidel b. 1846, Fridolin b.
1851, Richard b. 1861, and Paulina (who also
remained in Germany). Fridolin came to the
US in about 1870, and Richard came in 1875.
All of the Jehles who came to the US settled
in Michigan. I have no knowledge of Eduard
or Paulina. Please contact me by e-mail if
you have any information that may help my
search.
Thanks!
