Dale:
Johann Wolfgang migrated from Grieskirchen ob der Enns, Wels, Austria to
Leimen, Baden, Heidelburg, Gemany around 1 May 1677. His wife's name is not
known.

Bob Bohman:

Incidentally, Dale B's information is that Andreas Mixsell (Meiysell)'s
father Johann Wolfgang Meiysell was from Grieskirchen ob der Ens, Wels,
Austria before moving with Andreas to Leimen, Baden, Germany. A general
query to the Uberosterreich Genweb elicited a reply that the name Meiysell
may have had Jewish origins, perhaps Meissl or something like that.

The marriage of John Jacob Meixell to Veronica Zimmerman appears in the records
of the Reformed congregation of Tohickon Union Church in Bedminster Twp., Bucks
Co., PA. They were married by Rev. John Egidius Hecker.

at the baptism of John Jacob Meixell, son of John Jacob's brother, Johannes
Meixell and his wife, Anna Margaretha, at Williams Twp. Congregation Church. (listed
as Adam by error?)

John Jacob is believed to have followed his brother, Johannes, in migrating
to the northern tier of Northampton Co. The 1861 tax list shows John Jacob
taxed in Lower Smithfield (now part of Monroe Co., PA) for $4.

From Genealogical Record of the Schwenkfelder Families, pg 1510:
Philip Mixsell, son of Philip who was born in Lancaster Co., Pa., had five
sisters and four brothers; the youngest sister died at the age of seventy, the youngest
brother at the age of seventy-two, the father at eighty five, and one brother
died aged niniey-two years. Philip Mixsell is said to have never been sick, and
had but three months' schooling. He came to Easton at the age of thirteen years
and became a partner of Judge Wagener, who manufactured flour and transported
it to Philadelphia on Durham boats. In 1720 Peter Schuyler was the richestman, but
Wagener became wealthier.[Condit]

Philip Mixsell died in his ninety-fourth year, his mind unclouded to the last. In his
day he was one of the most efficient and energetic citizens. He was engaged
in the mercantile business under the name of Burket and Mixsell; no one filled
a larger space in financial and social circles. His disposition was mild and gentle;
he had good judgment and was temperate in every respect. In ealry life he was
rich and influential; in his yesra he was overtaken by reverses, financial
embarrassment and insolvency. [Easton Express 1870]

The record of the Mixsell family begins with Philip Mixsell, born in Conestoga Twp.,
Lancaster Co., Pa., November 23, 1731, died in Northampton Co., Pa., May
13, 1817. He was a nephew of Jacob Mixsell of Leacock Twp., Lancaster
Co., Pa., who came from Germany in the ship Mortonhouse, which arrived in
Phila., Pa., August 24, 1728. [Mixsell and AlliedFamilies]
