Subject: George BECHTEL, d. 1870, m. Elizabeth Sellers

Who is the George BECHTEL who m. 10 Feb 1835 in Stouchsburg, Berks Co., PA (Christ Lutheran Church)Elizabeth SELLERS (sometimes seen as Zellers)?
The identification of George Bechtel as Elizabeth's husband is based on the marriage record (at an appropriate place and time period) and references to the estate of George Bechtel in the 1873 estate distribution documents of Frederick S(Z)ellers (Elizabeth's father). At the time of the final distribution of Frederick's estate after Ellen (Frederick's wife/Elizabeth's mother) had died, a claim against the estate was made by "Franklin Smith, administrator of the estate of George Bectle [sic], deceased, for board and room expense ($27.05) and interest ($6.34)," presumably for the widow, Ellen.
Can anyone tell me anything about this family? Did George and Elizabeth have children? Did Elizabeth marry again after George's death?
Any information will be appreciated. (Please respond by e-mail or indicate by e-mail that a reply has been posted to this message board--Thanks!)
