Synopsis

A family saga that ties Swiss roots to American history, told through careful genealogical notes and personal reminiscences.

The book presents a careful chronicle of generations, tracing origins in Bern and Wattenwyl to settlements across Pennsylvania and Ohio. It combines ancestral records with the author’s own experiences as a surgeon in the Civil War, offering context for how a single lineage reflects the larger American story.
