KESSLER who (according to the LDS IGI) married Sussanna UPP in Starke County, Ohio, on 22 Dec. 1842. They had at least one son, Henry L. KESSLER, my great-grandfather. As far as we know, this branch of the KESSLER family came from Switzerland in the late 1700's or early 1800's and settled in Pennsylvania. I think in the Philadelphia area, although I have no direct evidence of that. The family migrated to Anderson, Indianna in the mid 1800's, with a stopover in Starke County, Ohio, where the above couple were apparently married. Henry L. KESSLER was born in Anderson, Indiana. If anyone in Rootersland has connections to Pennsylvania KESSLERs and/or UPPs I would appreciate hearing from you. Please advise to my e-mail address below. Thank you - Malcolm Agnew
