Hi Sarah, This may be your lucky day!!!!!! Moses Wisel was my gg-grandfather, and Jennie(Jane)his daughter, my g-grandmother. Elizabeth Moore was Moses Wisel's wife. He died in the Civil War at Andersonville prison 7/28/1864 of diptheria and is buried there in grave #4181. Their 3 children spent several years in one of the war orphanages after the war. Elizabeth Moore was born Elizabeth Funk and Moses was her first husband. She later married Thomas Moore. I've not yet established the relationship of Joseph Funk. Jennie married Joseph Wicks Jr. and died in 1914. The Wisel family lived in the Mineral Point area in Cambria Co. on a farm and George Wisel and his wife (GGGG-grandparents) are buried there. I have the family history back to the early 1700's in this country when they came over from Germany and settled in Bucks Co. PA. If you have the right connection, and it appears that you do, give me a holler. You will have found a researchers treasure trove! I am taking my father and aunt to South Fork today to decorate the graves. Elizabeth Moore and Jennie are both there. VOLUMES of info here. Later, Bruce
