Narrative

Note: The birthdate and surname of David Wible

The text Christian Metzger: Founder of an American Family 1682-1942 (p176) reports David's birthdate as 14 Feb 1845, though other than naming his wife (Laura Hard), it does not include any other vital dates or family information.

In the US Census records for his father's household that I've been able to find thus far his age is reported as twelve (1860) and twenty-two (1870). Skipping forward to the household I believe to be his in the 1880 US Census, his age is reported as thirty, and the indexed Tuscarawas Cty, Ohio death record for the man I believe to be him (d. 31 Jul 1888) reports his age as forty-one and approximate birth year as 1847. There is a burial listing for both David F. Wible and his wife Laura (in the Fourth Street Cemetery, Dover Twp, Tuscarawas Cty, Ohio) on the FindaGrave.com website, with no photo or supplemental information but giving his vital dates as b. 1848, d. 1888.

The only places I have seen a middle name or initial reported for David are on the 1860 US Census record for his father's household and his marriage record from 25 Dec 1873 - both of which name him David F. Weible.

Sometime after David and Laura married, he began changing the spelling of his surname to the more phonetically-derived "Wible." The birth records for his older children seem to reflect the original spelling, but those for his younger children began to be reported with the changed spelling. In the 1880 US Census, the family surname was recorded as "Weible," but in all subsequent census records for his wife and children (after his death), the surname spelling was changed to Wible, and even on David's death record, the surname was recorded as Wible. Whether this change was deliberate on David's part, or due to a literacy issue, is unknown, but all his children and descendants appear to continue using the changed spelling.
