Thomas Gordon Wisinger is my husbands great grandfather. Thomas Gordon is buried in Bethsaida Cemetery, Ida, La.
He married Emily Lavernia Pate. Children from that marriage: Franklin, Gordon Thomas (my husband's grandfather) Albert, Alice, William Belton, Luther, Beatrice and Hughie. Have some information on the above along with pictures.

brendawalton170 — 2009-12-04 03:52:31Z

Know your post is from 2000, but was hoping you were still active.
I would be very interested in the birthdays of Eli and Mattie's kids. Think I am on the correct line. Arthur, Jay, Nellie, Virgie, Tommy, Vard, Fannie, Oral, John and Mary. Are these the correct children? Mother is Mattie Broom?

Eli is the brother to Thomas Gordon Wisinger, Thomas's son Gordon Thomas is my husbands granddad.

I can provide as much information as you would like. Mary Lee Ewing was the daughter of Edd Bradley and Fannie Mae Ewing Belcher. Mary Lee was born in Smackover, AR. She was also married multiple times. She was quite a "colorful" character and I would be more than happy to share some stories if you contact me via email @ tjaystried@hotmail.com
She and John did have children together. Margie Lee Wisinger Ross was my grandmother. SHe had two children, Kenneth Bratton b. 1947 and my mom, Brenda Bratton, 1952. Mary Lee and the Ewings and Belchers moved to Red River COunty, Tx, where they all died. Mary Lee died in 1988 in BOgata, Texas (Red River County). I am new to the Wisinger research and would love to know what you know. I have some good pictures of John Wisinger but not that many.

Re: John Wharton Wisinger

bwissinger — 2009-05-24 21:57:12Z

I'd be interested in learning more about your grandmother Margie - I had her last name incorrect in my database as Ewins. I assume she and John Wharton Wissinger did not have children since she was his third wife. Also, you do have any information about John? I have 10 children with 3 wives and that he died in Smackover, Arkansas.

Re: John Wharton Wisinger

tjaystried — 2009-05-21 14:59:12Z

My grandmother was Margie Wisinger. I can answer any questions you have regarding this branch. My g.grandmother was Mary Lee Ewing of Red River County Texas. I stumbled on the Wisingers trying to finish the Ewings side.

Wisinger Family and DNA Project

bwissinger — 2006-08-18 20:06:18Z

We have started a Wisinger Family and Surname DNA Project to

1. Help researchers on common or related families work together to find their common heritage (See our Patriarch Page)

2. Identify the DNA of the immigrant ancestor families and and compile them and their lost branches into separate families through DNA matches (See our DNA Recruitment Page)

http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/w/weisinger/

If your family isn't listed, please give us the info to add them. (and check out the extra info we post on the "gold" names by clicking on them.)

James, please give me the birth date and place, plus wife's name for your great grandfather and we'll post him (and you) on the Patriarch page. Do you know Gordon's father or grandfather? If you do, we want t olist them and any other Wisinger ancestry.

You are also very welcome to join the Wisinger DNA Project. This could help you find your early Wisinger family. If you decide to join, please contact me, as we are only days away from some changes in our program.

Re: Wisinger Family and DNA Project

The Wisinger Patriarch page has been populated with the Patriarch information collected by Bob Wissinger over many years. All variants of the name are included in the one project. In summary (and so far):

We have 42 separate families listed by earliest ancestor

We have 18 researchers listed as contacts for their lines

We have two men signed up to participate in the DNA Project and are waiting for their results. We'll also be glad to answer on or off Board/List any questions about the DNA project.

Please check out your family and see if it is accurately portrayed and let us know if you wish to be listed as research contact for your family or branch.

Re: Wisinger Family and DNA Project

If you are interested in posting a query about your Wisinger family, we ask you to post at Wissinger, as the variant spellings of our family are all apparently mixed together. Hopefully, the new Family Project and the focus of all researcher discussion on one site instead of 17 will restimulate communication and sharing..
