The Wengers still populate eastern Pennsylvania. They came as Mennonites to Pennsylvania in the 18th century. My own line is Mary Wenger b. 1802 who married Joel Spyker. Her line is Martin Wenger (1780), Rev. Christian Wenger (1756), John (Hans) Wenger (1732), Johannes (Hans) Wenger, (1705), Johannes (Hans) Wenger, (1680). Mary Wenger's parents were second cousins so I also descend from Judith Wenger (1732) who was John (Hans) Wenger's (1732) sister.
This family has a great family association and a huge family reunion each August. I defer most of my serious questions to my cousin, Daniel Wenger, who I consider the preeminent Wenger research.
And yes, I wear a Wenger watch.
