Your inquiry is quite old now. I am sure you have learned that Simeon Viele , wife Nellie, sons Peter, Michael and Isaac and one daughter moved to Bedford Co. VA about 1796-1805. The children married there and expanded the Viele legacy. Michael Viely and son Simon are shown in census' with the family name spelled "Feeler" and so they are known when they eventually moved to Indiana and then on to Missouri.
I wonder why Simeon Viele (and Peter) left New York? Was there a family squabble? Church problem?It's a mystery.
