We have a family legend... A medical doctor, Hans Walter Krebs (of Wattenwil *1847 +1925) was a cousin first grade of my gg grandfather Friedrich Krebs (of Oppligen *1834 in Oppligen, Bern, Switzerland - +1914 in Saint Louis, MO, U.S.)
Hans Walter Krebs is a descendent of Hans Krebs *1728, a Brother of Melchior Krebs *1740. An interesting family line, with two lines in America.
The problem... I found no proof for this relationship...

What other names have you connected to at Wattenwil or surrounding villages through the wives? There is good chance that we may connect on some of our lines.
