Can anyone connect with this Adam Wert family?? Adam Wert was b. 05Jun1818 in Dauphin Co., PA; d. 06Dec1884 and buried in the Biddle Cemetery, Sandusky Township, Crawford Co., OH. He married on 05May1840 in Crawford Co., OH to Mary L. "Polly" McManis. Adam was the son of J. Joseph and Barbara Kitch, Wert...Pa to Oh in 1826.

ADAM WERT. farmer; P. 0. North Robinson ; was born in Dauphin Co., Penn., June 5, 1817. He is the son of one of the earliest settlers in Sandusky Township, his father coming here in 1826, when Mr. Wert was but 9 years old. He has ever since been a resident of the township. His father was a man of religious principles, and much devoted to the success and furtherance of the cause of Christ. To his honor it may be said that lie inaugurated the first Sunday school ever held in the county. He was one of the first to help in the organization of a church, and was throughout his life an Elder, and a devoted worker and worshiper in the vineyard of his Master. Twenty-five years ago he died, an old man Net honored in his old age, and respected by all who knew him as a man who loved righteousness and eschewed evil. His sons all followed in his footsteps, and are of those who are living faithful and upright Christians. The subject of our sketch was married, in 1840, to Mary McMannis, a native of Pennsylvania. There were nine children of this union, all of whom are living - William H. is in Putman Co.; Sarah Elizabeth in Sandusky Co.; Peter F. in Richland Co.; Matilda Ann in Sandusky; A. J. in Williams Co., while Nicholas B., John A., Mary Emeline and Belle are at home. His children are all doing well, and have been brought up in accordance with those principles of religion and right which have governed the lives of their father and father's father before them.
