My name is Jimmy Don Roberts. My mother's Father is Donald Ray Walser from Lamesa, TX. In his family tree there is a Casper Walser. He was a tailor from Bern, Switzerland. He boarded a ship named "Albany" in Amsterdam, Netherlands and sailed to the newly formed colonies, landing in Philadelphia Harbor, December 2, 1749. I have every piece of family history for the Walsers from that point. Apparently the Walser name also comes from Germany and Sweden. And some rumors of "Old King Cole" as an ancestor. Feel free to email any questions. [email protected]. I would love to have some more info if anyone knows.
