John Frederick Weishampel

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Rev. John Frederick Weishampel (April 4, 1808 – November, 1883) was a Baltimore, Maryland minister and author. The most notable of his works is The Testimony of a Hundred Witnesses (1858), a compilation which contains one hundred religious testimonies from Christians of different denominations. One of the testimonies in the book was written by "Church of God" (commonly called "Winebrennerians") founder John Winebrenner. The town Weishample, Pennsylvania is supposedly named after Weishampel due to his association with Winebrenner.

Weishampel was a second generation Prussian-American and father of publisher John Frederick Weishampel, Jr. He was married to Gertrude Dorothea Koehler on July 3, 1831.
