Surname: Weighley, Wegerlein, Ross
-------------------------

The Wegerlein's who arrived in Lancaster Co, PA during 1732 have been detailed
in a family history called "The Wegerleins" by Ethel Martin. It was made
available to the LDS library in 1994 as #1698002. It provides over 200
pages of history and family group sheets for many branches of the family.
It does not go back earlier than the arrival of Paulus & Ottilia - which
as a matter of fact is my primary interest in the line at this point -
Where did they come from?
I am related to their 7th child, Phillip who poineered Brother's Valley
in Somerset Co, PA in the early 1770s.
By the way, in my years of research since 1993, I have come across 22 spellings
of Weighley, from Wegerlein to Wegly.
Good Luck.
