John Joachim Wiesser age 23 (born c1830?) - (This should be the son Jacob - he is listed as J. Jacob Wiesser on Page 580 - qualifications) John Wilhelm Wiesser age 43 (born c1810?) - (This should be the father, the age fits as the father of John and Jacob) John Gerlach Wiesser age 24 (born c1829?) - (This should be the son John) IMPORTANT NOTE: Now that I have found associated ages (and birth years) they don't seem to fit for ages of George, who died about 1909, and John who died about 1810.
