Carol A. Wells-Perlaky's Notations:
Notation 1: Surname may be shared, by others, as Wampler. Wampfler, with the "f" in the middle, is said to been the original spelling/surname and the "f" was dropped by those after immigrating to the United States in mid-1700s.
Notation 2: Shared parents' names oft-shared for Hans Jacob Wampfler in print/self-published publications. However parents' names are not proven, so are "probable" parents, and going further back tends to be rather sketchy and lacking of sources.
Notation 3. Parents names shared in baptism/christening records.
Notation 4. Direct Ancestor of Carol A. Wells-Perlaky.
