Hi Rich,
We have traced our ancestry back to Philip Metler, born 19 Aug 1765 in NJ, probably Hunterd(t)on County.He died 19 Dec 1842 in Troy, PA and is buried in Glenwood Cemetery in Troy.We can't seem to make the connection to Johan Philip Metler.Looks as if our Philip could be a grandson of one of the children?Family lore is that we come from Bavaria not Switzerland, and the family name was spelled Metler until the late 1880s.The Hunterdon County connection seems so compelling, however.Do you have any info to link our Philip into the line?
Many thanks!
Mary Mettler
