History of Bucks County, Pennsylvania Edited by J. H. Battle Philadelphia PA., Chicago Ill.: A. Warner & Co., Publisher 1887. Davis' History of Bucks County, Volume 3, page 729-730:.

ELMER P. WEISEL The pioneer ancestor of the Weisel family of Bucks county, Pennsylvania, was Michael Weisel, who with his wife and family emigrated from the Palatinate to Pennsylvania in 1732, crossing the Atlantic in the ship “Pink,” which arrived at Philadelphia, October 17, 1732, with sixty-one Palatines and their families,making in all one hundred and sixty-nine persons, from Rotterdam. On the list of these Palatines appear the names of Michael and Frederick Wyssel and their wives and children. Michael Weisel was accompanied by his wife Susanna and three sons, Jacob, Michael and George. The family probably found their way into Bucks county within a few years of their arrival, followed the trend of German immigration up the Schuylkill and her eastern tributaries into upper Bucks county, then already partly settled by their compatriots. On February 15, 1743, there was surveyed to Michael Weisel two tracts of land in the northwestern part of Bedminster township, near Tohickon church, one of the earliest German Reformed churches in Bucks county, then just being organized, and fronting on the “Swamp Road,” then (as now) the line between Hilltown and Bedminster, one of one hundred and fifty acres, and the other one hundred and thirty-one acres.

The Weisels were among the earliest members of Tohickon church, and several generations of the family lie buried in the churchyard adjoining. They were also pioneers in education, as the first land alienated from the family was set off the original plantation for a school house in 1767, with Jacob and Michael Weisel among the trustees, and upon which a school house had been already erected. This primitive school house and its humble successors continued to do service as a “temple of learning” supported by the Weisels and their neighbors, until superseded by the common schools, supported by taxation,the land being sold by Samuel Weisel as agent for the surviving trustees and converted to private use on April 2, 1861. The date of the death of Michael Weisel, Sr, and his wife Susanna has not been definitely ascertained. They conveyed the paternal acres to their eldest son Jacob in 1757, and he in turn conveyed a portion thereof to his brother Michael, George, the other brother,having settled in Richland township. All that is definitely known is that he was deceased in July, 1767, when his son Jacob made the conveyance of the school house lot. Of the children of Michael and Susanna Weisel, Jacob, the eldest, survived his younger brother, living until 1797, and to the age of about eighty years. He was a lieutenant of militia during the Revolutionary war. He and his wife Margaret were the parents of five children: Frederick, born April 21, 1751; Anna Catharine, born March 18,1756; John, born July 6, 1758; George, born June 29, 1761; and Maria Elizabeth,born in September, 1769. George Weisel, the youngest son, died in Richland in 1798, leaving sons John, Peter, Jacob, and Joseph, and several daughters.

History of Bucks County, Pennsylvania Edited by J. H. Battle Philadelphia PA., Chicago Ill.: A. Warner & Co., Publisher 1887. Davis' History of Bucks County, Volume 3, page 729-730:.

Michael Weisel was born in the Palatinate in the year 1720, and was therefore twelve years of age when he accompanied his parents, Michael and Susanna, to Pennsylvania. He married Magdalena _____, and was a resident of Bedminster township, Bucks county, until his death, June 24, 1796, at the age of seventy-six years. He was a member of Tohickon Reformed church, and the baptism of three daughters appears of record there in 1753, 1756 and 1758, respectively, but they probably all died young, as no daughters are mentioned in his will. He purchased 253 acres of land adjoining the Bedminster homestead on the south, of Chief Justice William Allen, and also received a conveyance from his brother Jacob for a part of the 281 acres purchased by his father in 1743, and conveyed the greater part of both tracts to his three sons, Michael, Henry and George, during his lifetime, devising to them at his death what remained. Of these three sons,Michael, the eldest, was twice married, his first wife being Catharine and his second, whom he married August 19, 1794, being Mary Sorver. He purchased of his father a portion of the homestead, and also purchased a portion of his grandfather’s original purchase of his uncle Jacob, but later sold his Bedminster land and located in Tinicum township, where he died in 1830, leaving four sons, Michael, Daniel, Tobias, and Samuel, and five daughters, who married into the families of Smith, Bissey and Swartz. George Weisel, the youngest son, born March 11, 1773, married Margaret Sheib, April 19, 1796. He received from his father a portion of the old homestead, but later sold it and removed to Montgomery county, and late in life purchased a farm in Warrington township,later occupied by his son George and grandson Samuel, where he died April 19, 1862, in his ninetieth year.

Administration of the Estate of Jacob Weisel

(Handwritten)

Know all men by these presents that I Frederick Wisley of Bedminster Township eldest son that is now living in this State of Jacob Wisley late of the same place deceased, do by these presents renounce, release and quit claim to the Administration of the goods and chattel rights and credits whatsoever, which were of the said deceased, and desire that the same may be commuted to my brother George Wisely or to such persons as may be entitled thereto.

We, the auditors appointed to adjust and settle the accounts of George Weisel, Administrator of the Estate of Jacob Weisel deceased do report that upon examination of the accounts we find a balance of seven hundred and thirty two pounds and one shilling and five pence in the hands of the administrator. We also find that Daniel Weisel, one of the heirs, had received from his father Jacob Weisel, on the second day of January 1793, the sum of seventy three pounds, eleven shillings and nine pence which we have considered as an advancement. Therefore he will not be entitled to receive a child's full share out of the above balance but only the sum of thirty five pounds, seventeen shillings, eight pence, the residue to be distributed among the other heirs of the said Jacob Weisel deceased, agreeably to the accounts for the distribution of Intestate Estates. Witness our hands this nineteenth day of November Anno Domini One thousand eight hundred and eight - 1808.
