All information comes from Chuck Lingg - 1999
Referred to in 'Minutes of the Small Council of Luzern, 13 May 1816'. There was a Franz Sales Lingg married to Aoisia Zettel who had a son named Joseph Franz Sales Alois Lingg b July 4, 1805. This could place Franz Sales Lingg b abt 1770, as a possible sibling of Joseph Lingg b 1765. Also the maiden name of Clara Graber's mother was Zettel. This and the small size of the village of Grossdietwil gives some credence to a possible family connection??? It fits in with the redundant combination of given names (Joseph, Sales, Alois et al). Special Note: There is a Silas Lingg listed in the 1830 NY, NY Co,/NYC 11th ward, page 222. If this were Sales (Silas) Lingg b 9/28/1809, will have to be checked out. He would have been about 21 yrs. at this time and thus would be included in a census. In clude in list of items to check/verify.
