Looking for any available information on the ancestry of Casper Wink (Winck). He was born 1692/1693 in Manheim on the Rhine, PALATINATE, GERMANY, he died 5 OCT 1788 in KUTZTOWN, Maxatawny Township, Berks County, PA.

He married Maria Gertrude Kemp born about 1700 in PA or perhaps in Manheim. Gertrude is the daughter of ELIZABETH DRESCHER, and of THEOBALT (DEWALT) Kemp born 1685 in Strassburg, Germany.

Casper and Gertrude had a daughter named Catherine born August 7, 1728, who married Peter Trexler. I am descended from Catherine's daughter Maria Christina Trexler b: 3 NOV 1753 in Breinigsville, Lehigh County, PA. She married Peter Haas (b: 25 DEC 1748 in Breinigsville, PA) on 13 AUG 1776 in Jordan Reformed Church, South Whitehall Twp., Lehigh County, PA.
