I'm not sure if you ever got the information you wanted. And you posted this a while back, so you may have. I have no info on John Wibel, but, William Wibel, Was my Great Grandfather(I'm his son's granddaughter). He passed away in 1993 in Georgia. Im not sure what of, but, I'm sure I can find out. What is your fathers name?

Family Tree of some WIBEL / WIEBEL
lines from the end of the 15th Century until (1885)
by Dr F WIBEL
on the occasion of the golden wedding anniversary of his parents,
27 October 1885
Second and improved edition, supersedes previous edition.

This document comprises 24 pages of charts, text, dates, places, descendant lists and other information, all written in German. This edition was published in Hamburg in 1887, and is from the Augsburg city archives.

Marlene BRENNAN of Queensland obtained a copy from the archives, and scanned it to PDF. She offers it here for the benefit of anyone working on related families.

If anyone is able to provide an English translation of the text, I will add it to the site. Until then, you can pretty well read the charts and names, and figure out the vital dates, places and continuing lines [several in USA].

The PDF document is a three-part download, totaling about 1.2 MB.

Wibel of Indiana

BruceMacdonald46 — 2006-08-29 20:17:23Z

Looking for information on a George Wibel, believed to be
born in Pennsylvania and later moved to Indiana. I think
he was born in the early 1800s. He married a Harriet Taylor.
I know he had one son, John Nelson Wibel. The last name
could be spelled either Wible or Wibell. Any information would be appreciated.

Re: Wibel of Indiana

BruceMacdonald46 — 2006-08-29 20:17:23Z

Wallace,

I am currently vacationing in Indiana and I purchased a copy of John Nelson Wibel's record of death from the Wells County Health Department in Bluffton, Indiana. It lists John's birth date as 25 May 1851 in Miami Co., Indiana and his death as 28 Dec 1938 in Lancaster Twp, Wells Co., Indiana. It also lists his burial in Murray Cemetery. The document has John's father as Levi Wibel of Indiana and mother Nancy Taylor of Indiana. I double checked in the funeral home records by Elzey-Dickey-Haggard and it lists the same information. I am thinking that Levi could have been a brother of George & Solomon or possibly a son of George. I found John's obituary in the Evening News Banner, Bluffton, Indiana, in the Wednesday, Dec 28, 1938 edition (pg1, col4). But doesn't list his parents names. Let me know what you think and if you have any further information on Levi Wibel.

Cheers
Bruce MacDonald

George, Solomon, Levi Wibel of Indiana

BruceMacdonald46 — 2006-08-29 20:17:23Z

I thought that George might be the father of John Nelson Wibel, but after obtaining John's death record, it lists Levi Wibel and his wife Nancy Taylor as his parents. I also found in the Ohio marriage index (1789-1850) that Solomon Wibel married Rosannah Mills on 19 Nov 1837 in Knox County, Ohio. I also found in the Wills Record, Miami County, Indiana (1843-1900) pg 267 a will for Solomon Wibel dated 2 Apr 1883 and recorded 20 June 1883 for wife Rosannah, children Hiram Marion, Albert, Thomas H., and Margaret E. (Wibel) Baker (married Lewis Baker).

If anyone has more information on George, Solomon and/or Levi Wibel please let me know.

Cheers

Bruce,

This is interesting. I don't know what to make of it. I have been thinking that Solomon, George, and Levi were brothers. Solomon was married in Knox Co., Ohio in 1837, Levi was married in Perry Co., Ohio in 1846, and George was married in Miami Co., IN in 1850. I thought you were on the right track thinking that George is John Nelson's father. It could be that whoever provided the information at John Nelson's death in 1938 just did not know who his parents were, especially since they apparently died not long after 1850. At any rate, I have not found any Levi Wibel that could be John Nelson's father.

I have not had any luck searching in Ohio for any connections. It is intereresting though that there is an Elizabeth Wibel, age 63, b. New Jersey, living next door to Levi in Perry Co., IN in 1860. She is included in the household of Rebecca Miller's parents, John and Catherine Miller. I assume this could be a their mother since she would have been born about 1887. I am still looking for her husband but no luck so far.

Thanks for the new info and we will keep looking.

George Wibel

2005-07-01 22:39:47Z

Looking for a George Wibel that was born around 1816 in Pennsylvania. He had a brother, Solomon and a sister Sally. I know George ends up in Indiana, marrying Harriet Taylor on 25 July 1850 in Miami County, Indiana. His brother Solomon ends up in Indiana but certain that he came thru Ohio, marrying Roseanna. George had one child, John Nelson Wibel. Solomon had seven children, Samuel, Thomas, Margaret, Hiram, Marvin, Albert and Maria. If anyone has anymore information on birth, death, marriage for George and/or Solomon would be very much appreciated! Thanks, Bruce!

Not sure your email was working posting this here too

In one of the things someone sent is:

1880 US Federal Census (viewing records 125 of 32 matches for Weibel in IN.

It lists William & Barbara Weibel
William Weibel, 1865 Indiana, son
Romans (I think it is Romana) Weibel, 1867 Indiana, son
Arnold Weibel, 1872, Indiana son
Tolbert Weibel 1872. Indiana son (twins)

Then it has

Michael Weibel, White Water, Franklin, Indiana 1866 (other than a direct relationship.)

Does this ring a bell with any thing you have?

Wibel/Wiebel / Ohio

2005-02-06 03:43:11Z

I'm not researching this family, but I came across some information that may be of interest to someone. In the source, "Chronik von Poppenweiler:"
Christian Wibel, born 4 December 1826, son of Jakob Balthes Wibel and Christine (born Maier), emigrated 17 January 1854 to America, his whereabouts unknown. In 1869 he lived in New York.

His brother Jacob Wibel, born 5 February 1820, was already in America since 1853. On or about 21 January 1870, he traveled further because of religious beliefs, and was known to be living in St. Paris, Grafschaft (county) Champagner, in the state of Ohio in 1870.

{Another brother} Adam Freiderich Wiebel lived in Cincinnati in the state of Ohio in 1855 without a known address.

L. E. Wibel

mwfayard — 2005-01-03 03:48:12Z

Looking for any relative of my grandfathers. L.E. Wibel, I believe his name was Larance Everett Wibel born Jan. 11, 1882. Lived in Bluffton, Ind. Married first to Emma Dee Garton then to Jessie. He had four children. Thought he might have been adopted,. Not sure. None of the grandchildren know any thing about his family. Have old photo of home and old car saying Wibel residence Kirkland, Ohio. My mother remembers grandmother and grandfather living in Ohio when she was very young. L.E. Wibel was a Nazarene Evangelist as well as other jobs. Would love to find out about our relatives on his side. Contact me at melinda@mfayard.com or leave a reply on the message board

Re: Wibel of Indiana

Wallace_Dunlap — 2004-10-07 13:18:48Z

Bruce, This is a line I am working on also. I have information on John Nelson Wibel but know little of his parents. I found the George and Harriet you give, two houses from his brother?, Solomon Wibel. Levi Wibel also seems to be a fit with this family. I am trying to track them in Ohio but still need a breakthrough. John Nelson says his father came from PA and most census listings give Indiana as his mother's birthplace. I see that Harriet Taylor gives Ohio as her home state in the 1850 Miami Co., IN census. This is probably the usual census discrepancies but I feel from looking at the lines of Solomon and Levi that they also lived in Ohio. What do you think? I would be glad to share what other information I have.

I have also looked at a John Taylor living in Erie, Miami Co., IN in 1850 that was born in New York. One of his children is named Nelson so this could be Harriet's family.

Best wishes,

Wallace Dunlap

Perhaps this may be of use to someone:
Emigrated from Poppenweiler, Kreis Ludwigsburg, Wuerttemburg, Germany:
Christian Wibel, born 4 Dec 1826, son of Jakob Balthes and Christine (nee Maier), emigrated to America 17 Jan 1854. His whereabouts were unknown until 1869 when he lived in New York.

His brother Jacob Wibel, born 5 Feb 1820, traveled to America in 1853. In 1870 he lived in St. Paris, county Champagner in State Ohio. Emigrated from there 21 Jan 1870? (hard to translate).

Other brother Adam Friederich Wiebel lived 1855 in Cincinatti in state Ohio without a set residence.

Information found in book, Chronik von Poppenweiler, by Theodor Bolay (pub. 1974). Should anyone be interested, there are other pages with the Wibel name as well.
