Possible distant relationship. My family also came from Sulzheim and Wurzburg, both lower Franconia, Bayern (Bavaria), Germany--easy riding distance to yours. My G-Grandfather was Georg Wehner (b. 1845 in Wurzburg; d. 1913 KC, Missouri). His siblings did not include an Amelia. Maybe they were cousins. Georg's father was named Michael Wehner (b. 1813 in Sulzheim; d. 1876 in Wurzburg) and married Katherina Glingler (b. 1812 in Hassfurt; d. 1898 Wurzburg). I've mapped all the current German households (ain't internet great?). As of the 1990's there are three basic clusters of Wehner households (obviously excludes the female group that married). One is rather distinct at including the Wurzburg to Fulda region. I suspect that many of those within that current-day region are related to some "Adam & Eve" Wehner a few generations back--and you and me.
Not much to offer you other than potential relationship. I don't know Michael's siblings or parents names and have had pretty poor luck on those generations with German sources to-date.
Happy to answer any questions. Good luck.
