Philadelphia (Wissahickon) Funks

  of 1878

Brickwall with John Funk b. 8/6/1817 d. 2/24/1895. Married Christiann ? b. abt. 1819 d. 6/2/1889. He was wheelwright with shop on Ridge Ave. Both buried Leverington Cem. along with some children. Have birth dates of all 13 children - some married names (Henry - Beswick - Wright - Dill) and some death dates. 1880 census lists John's father and mother born in PA. No further clues. Can anyone zero in on John's parents and those of his wife, Christiann? One tidbit: Manayunk Sentinel article 1895 relates John being uncle of Amanda Alexander Levering (wife of rodney King Levering). Have checked both Levering and Alexander and can't find the connection. Any leads would be most appreciated.
