The published biography of Alexander Wiysel says Joseph and Susanna Wissinger had 6 children. 4 were still living in 1889. (Refer to sources for son Alexander) Six children agrees with the 1850 census as there are 4 children at home, Esther has married and left home, and Alexander is adjacent in the census.
This does not agree with the 1860 census which includes 6 additional children. At least 4 of the children (Jacob, Daniel, Henry, and Rachel) should have been included on the 1850 census. Did Joseph marry a second time to a different Susanna about the same age as his first wife? There is evidence this is the case, that the mother of the younger children is Susanna/Susan Horner.
In the 1880 census for Alexander Wisel, Daniel and Mattie (Martha) are included in the household and the relationship given is brother and sister [of Alexander]. The evidence supports Joseph Wisel as the father of all 12 children.
The writings of Ethyl Adams Baker, a descendant of Rachel Wisel, state the parents of Rachel are Joseph Wisel and Susanna Horner. As of this time, no documentation has been uncovered to verify the parents of Rachel. The death record of Jacob Wisel lists his father as Joseph Wisel and mother as Susan Horner.
The first 6 children are assigned to Joseph Wisel and Susanna Wissinger per Alexander's biography and the 1850 census. The second 6 children are assigned to Joseph Wisel and Susanna Horner per Jacob Wisel's Wabash Co, IN death record and the writings of Etheyl Adams Baker.
Notes:
1) From the Will of John Horner, Ebensburg Court House, Will Book 1, p. 15, March 29, 1814, resident of Conemaugh Twp, John Horner names his wife as Susanna and has minor
children but they are not named. This woman is not a good candiate as she would be about 15 years older than the census data which has Susanna born about 1804.
2) July 2002, Comments by Sara Deffenbaugh, a descendant of Joseph Wisel and is researching this line - "We don't have any source for Susanna Horner d/o John Horner and as of this date I haven't been able to find any firm proof. We also know about the entry in Ludwig's will concerning Joseph Wisel but so far have not been able to verify that the Susanna mentioned is indeed Susanna Wissinger d/o Ludwig. I have spent many hours at the historical society looking through family files and anything I can find with Wissinger & Wisel but so far, nothing. I also contacted Bob Wissinger who is a direct decendant of
Ludwig and he has never found any concrete proof."
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Family knowledge passed down from Daniel's son Charles is Daniel and Flora lived in Lequire and Daniel died in Hoyt, Oklahoma. A descendent was unable to find a death record for Daniel in Haskell and Pittsburg counties.
Information provided by Sara Deffenbaugh, Jan 2003
Daniel H. Wiysel b. 1841 d. 1914 married Elizabeth Sutterworth in 1880 no children; second wife Flora Ellen Pruitt 20 Aug 1893 in Newark, AR. Child: Charles W. b. 17 May 1895 d. 14 Sept 1977 in Krebs, OK married Avie. I found info on Daniel and Flora's marriage license filed at Jackson County Courthouse, Jackson AR.
Birth and marriage data for Rachel Wisel is from the "Lineage of Ethel Adams Baker" 1961.
