Weppelman(n)
South Africa
I assume that they emigrated to Natal/Marianhill in South Africa before or at the same time as their sister Elisabeth Weppelmann with the Founding Father of the Order of Marianhill on Dec. 15, 1890. She had entered the Monastery of the Precious Blood ("Kloster vom Kostbaren Blut„) in Paderborn and was called Sister Tertulla. In South Africa she became the Mistress of Novices.
Her brothers must have provided their skills to the construction of the monastery. After 10 years Sister Tertulla returned to the Motherhouse in Aarle-Rixtel, the Netherlands for health reasons; she died on Mar. 13, 1915.
Another daughter of Joan Henrich Weppelmann, Maria Weppelmann, born Oct. 25, 1844, married Melchior Sievert. She also emigrated to South Africa.
At present the South African Weppelman(n) live in Pretoria, Cape Town, East London/Gauteng.
