William, Johan and Jesse Huggins Germany> New Jersey

  of 2204

I am researching the Huggins family supposedly from Germany. William born 2 Jun 1811 in New Egypt, Ocean, New Jersey. He was the son of Johan born about 1786 in Wisnehium, Wutemburgy, Germany and Permelia Gullin born about 1790 in Toms River, Ocean, New Jersey. Another document shows William stating his parents were from Germany. The problem is Wisnehium does not exist. I have checked Wimsheim, Wurtemberg, Germany and Wiernsheim, Wurtemberg, Germany with no success. I figure the emmigrants told family where they were from and it was passed down. I found Wisnehium on the IGI. Johan and his father Jesse both emmigrated. All I know about Jesse is that he died in Vernon, Cream Ridge, Monmouth, New Jersey and do not know the name of his wife. Any help would be greatly appreciated. One guess I have is that I find the name Hugen in one of the places that Johan lived.

The sources I have found for William Huggins include:
