I am a Kerl!
Jay Kerl to be exact, recently I decided to start tracing a little bit. I started because I've decided to go to Germany and Switzerland within a couple of years or so and would love to meet someone there that shares the surname.
I have some partial information leading back to approximately 1860 or so if you would be interested in sharing some information. Write back if so my email is as follows

I would like to contact Susan Sarauer who posted on this message board in 2000. The listed e-mail comes back. My Great grandmother Emelia Abraham was Bertha Kerl's sister.
Parents were Wm. Fred. Hell and Wilhelmine Kruger Hell, came to Janesville, WI in about 1881. Bertha's children include William who married a Neitzel, Paul who married Neitzel, Henry, Bernard, George, Ray, etc. I think we might have a connection

You have so much information that I will have go get out what I have. Haven 't been actively looking during the springtime.
Have about 12 pages of things I could send you as pertains to the start of my investigation of the John Kerl family. Have no idea what his parents names were but learned that he was from Wethaus, Germany.

Re: john kerl

2003-06-04 16:59:38Z

Troy,
You have so much info here I will have to go over it and get back to you. I had quit looking for anything more on John as I didn't have his parents names or their town or city where they lived.
I did get to West Point, NE a few weeks ago and did find his and Carolines graves and also think there are some Spillners near .
I have one of Simons English books as my grandmother gave it to my father. They are available on the net, used ones.
Will get back to you . You could contact David Reichlinger in Ft. Wayne, He has information on the family. Mary Ellen kerl Lenagh

Lucille,
Glad the information was helpful. Can you clarify how you are related. Are you Genevive's daughter or granddaughter or are you related in some other way. I certainly do not have all the Michael Kerl grandchildren down and am at zero concerning great grandchildren, except my own cousins. Do you know Mike Kaufman? Where does he live? I have written him but have not heard back from him. Does you have his e-mail address. Did you get the e-mail I sent you to the e-mail address that I noted for you? Where do you live? New York? I hope that we can make contact with Mike. I have some more interesting information. Look forward to hearing from you. John

They came into New York and dispersed towards Wisconsin, and settled in and around Mazomanie and Black Earth area, and were farmers. Anyone who can give me any leads or info...please e-mail me.
