- Mary Helen Haines notes:
Jacob's name is spelled variously Whetzel, Whitzel.
The family appears in the 1830 census in Frederick Co. p. 138, Image 79 of 116, alphabetical order.
Jacob Whitzel is male 20 to 30, wife is 20 to 30. There is one male child under 5.
Jacob marries again a Hannah Setzer May 21, 1832.
In the 1840 census they appear as Jacob Whetzel one male 30 to 39, one female 30 to 39, one male 15-19, one male 5-9, one male under 5, 2 females under 5. This would indicate that there is a male child from the first marriage to Mary McFarland.
They appear in the 1850 census in Frederick Co. Dist. 16. There are no children older than John M. Wetzel, age 17, living in the household, which would be consistent with the marriage to Hannah. So, oldest son by Mary McFarland Whetzell has move d away, but do not know his name.
