		Here is a link to the Pedigree Chart for Eusebius Merkel.

Eusebius  was born in 1822. He came to Rochester sometime before 1855. He also came from Iffezheim, Germany, the same town that my paternal grandfather, Jacob Merkel came from. I've traced Eusebius' line back to 1686.

Why am I researching this line?  First, Eusebius was born in Iffezheim, Germany, the same town that my paternal Merkel line is from. Second, the mother of Eusebius is Elizabeth Schneider. She is the half first cousin to Euphrosina Schneider who is the mother of my Great Great grandmother, Barbara Pfetzer.
