- info on the Werley family is in History of Lehigh County, page 1388:
The Werley family is of French Huguenot descent and originally the name
was spelled Werle. Sebastian Werley and his wife, Rosina Derr, accompanied
by her brother, John Derr, emigrated to Pennsylvania before 1750 and settled on
a farm in Allemangel, now Weisenberg township, where he built a house some
distance from an Indian path which led to an Indian village, where the Holben
mill dam is nowsituated in Lynn township, and when the Indians passed, his wife
would favor them occasionally with a loaf of bread, a kindness which was
reciprocated by them. He took up large tracts of land in that vicinity. He had
six children: John Nicholas, generally called "Hannickle," who was the eldest,
born on the ocean; Michael; Catharine, married to a Billman; Dewald, married
to Miss Mumma;Valentine, generally called "Feldi," who married a Miss George;
Maria, who married a Snyder; and Rosina, who married Bernhard Kressly.
