Westmoreland County, PA Appels from Hessen, Germany
I am looking for any information regarding the ancestry of Christian Appel (Died 2/1942) who was from Hessen, Germany and married Elizabeth Winegarten (Born 1864 and Died 4/1943).They settled in Westmoreland County in Jeannette, PA.
His father was Philip Appel (Born 8/1834 Died 12/1927) and his mother was a woman with the last name Bolt. He had 2 brothers: Henry (Henny) Appel (Died 4/1958) who was owner of Appel's Cafe in Jeannette, PA and Philip Appel.Any information would be appreciated---especially regarding the German roots.
