Reisin was the son of Peter Nighswonger (b. abt 1755, d. 1834) and Jane Kerr. Peter was the son of John Nighswonger (b. 2/19/1713, d. abt1788) and Maria Kieffer. John's parents were Christian Nighswonger and Anna Magdelena Steffen. Christian was born in Switzerland to Jacob Neuenschwander. Jacob was also born in Switzerland and was imprisoned in 1710 before being exiled to America in 1711 with his sons. Jacob's father was Wolfgang Von Neuenschwander. Wolfgang was said to have been killed in Switzerland about 1690 because of his religious beliefs.
My great grandmother was a Nighswonger and I have about 150 names in that data base. If I can help with any others please let me know.
