History of Bucks County, Pennsylvania Edited by J. H. Battle Philadelphia PA., Chicago Ill.: A. Warner & Co., Publisher 1887. CHAPTER L. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES—WARRINGTON.

http://pagenweb.org/~bucks/battle/chapter_l.htm (Dec. 2023)

SAMUEL WEISEL, farmer and lumberman, P.O. Chalfont, is of German lineage, his great-great-grandfather having emigrated from Germany, when 12 years of age. He settled in Bedminster township, where his son Michael was born and lived until his death. His son, George, was the grandfather of our subject. He was born in Bedminster, March 11, 1773, and removed to Montgomery county, where he bought a farm, where he lived until he came to the farm now occupied by Samuel, on which he died, April 23, 1862, in his ninetieth year. On April 19, 1796, he was married to Margaret Scheib, who was born June 8, 1775, and died May 27, 1858, in her eighty-third year. Their children were: Mary Magdalena, George and Michael, all deceased. George, the father of Samuel, was born November 8, 1799, and died February 23, 1881, aged 82. He lived with his father until the latter’s death, and in 1833 removed from Montgomery county to the place now occupied by his descendants in this township, which he and his brother Michael owned in partnership. Later they dissolved, and George took the entire property, which he deeded to his son Samuel on the latter’s marriage. On September 15, 1822, he was married to Catherine, daughter of John Scheib, of New Britain township, where she was born, August 22, 1802. She is still living with her son, and is now in her eighty-sixth year. To this union four children were born: Henry, born September 21, 1823, and died June 3, 1884; Mary Ann, born October 3, 1825, who died February 20, 1878; Aaron, born February 25, 1831, now living in New Britain township; and Samuel, born April 12, 1828. He was five years of age when his parents came to this township, and since then has always lived on the same place. On his marriage he took possession of the farm, his parents removing to the new house they had built on the property where his father died, and where Samuel had also removed a few months previously. The farm then comprised sixty-four acres, but subsequent purchases by Mr. Samuel Weisel have increased it to two hundred and seventy-three acres, making him the largest landowner in the township. Seven years ago he gave up the active management of the farm to his son, Franklin P., and has since attended to the saw-mill, which adjoins the place. On November 2, 1851, he was married to Catherine A., daughter of John M. Kober, who was born in New Britain township, September 15, 1829. Their union was blessed with six children: Franklin P., A. Amanda, Mary A., Catherine Ann, Henry Phares, living; and Sallie E., deceased. Mr. Weisel has an interest in educational matters, and for sixteen years has been school director. He and his wife are members of St. Peter’s Reformed church at Hilltown, of which he has been a deacon, He is an energetic citizen, whose well-directed labors have entitled him to the competence he is enjoying. In politics he is a democrat.
