WEITZEL by Del Lynch 16 July 1990 ------------------------------------------------ WEITZEL WHITESELL WHYTSELL WHYSALL WEIJZEL From what we can decipher, there is between 30 to 60 different spelling variations of the same name. Our WEITZEL originates from the Palatinate region in Germany. We are looking for descendants of JOHANN PAUL WEITZEL in Lancaster County. PA. this would probably be in the 1600's, possibly 1700's. I would like to correspond with all Wheitzel's or any close name variant. Since I do not have a computer please write to me and enclose a SASE if you would like a reply. I am a school teacher but have been doing genealogy for years. I would love hearing from you. I have a lot of information on this family.
