Histories 
1914_wisser_families_of_lehigh _pg1417from_berks.jpg
By 1914 when this book was published, this information was about 100 years old. I'm discovering that it seems to contain some errors in early US Wisser history (gaw 3/1/2014)
I'm discovering that John Wisser was the father of John,Jonathan, Daniel (born 1803), Elizabeth, married to George Zettelmore (not Reinhard), Rebecca who married Jonathan Reinhard, Jacob, and a daughter named Saloma who married Jacob Altenderfer.
