Steve, et. al.,

A few years ago I noticed an obsure reference to a Joseph Mesel on the internet, but I have lost it since.

Could he be the second brother? :)

There are two other individuals that I would like to know the story on, they may be related or not.

The first is a Mazel who was at the Mannikin town settlement in Virginia. I think this might be Joseph Mesel.

The second is a Jean Mézel who settled in South Africa.

I know you haven't heard from me in a while but I haven't forgotton about the Genetic Genealogy thing. I plan to get to it soon. I'm easily distractable.

I live in Fort Worth now, I transfered within my company.

Another topic I hope to research one day is as I mentioned before the possible link to the town called Mezel near Clermont. On a French map site it says there was a family by that name there as early as the 12th century.
