Welcome to the Statler Family Genealogy Web Site!
www.statlerfamily.com

NOTICE: Due to the Rootsweb server disaster, I have not been able to update my family database at Rootsweb since September 2017. Therefore, I have uploaded my latest family database to the TribalPages website. You will find a link to my latest database HERE and in the menu at the left. Due to privacy issues, you will need to request an invitation to view the database.

This site is not restricted just to the Statler surname.  We realize that there are many variations and spelling changes from the original surname (which is not Statler), such as Stadler, Stateler, Stedler, Stetler, Stotler, etc.  Therefore, you'll find almost every spelling variation on this site (plus all the related families).  You will come across royal families, biblical lines and even a few famous names.  Also, this database has grown beyond the direct Statler lines and now encompasses most of the related families that lived in the Southeast Missouri area.

Note:  The Statlers in the Family Database at this site are the branch that went to North Carolina from Pennsylvania, then moved on and settled in Southeast Missouri by crossing the Mississippi River on New Year's Day, 1800.  This branch is referred to as Group 14 in Sandra Hall's "Statler/Stetler/Stotler Newsletters."

If you're looking for my wife's family tree information, then visit my related site:  The Hales & Winans Family Ties website (coming soon!)

Note:  This site is NOT affiliated or associated with the Statler Brothers singing quartet in any way.   Visit the FAQ page for more information.


The Statler DNA Project

Sandra Hall is coordinating an effort to connect the various Statler families back to their origins in Europe.  She is seeking to connect the Stadler/Statler/Stetler/Stettler/Stotler families through DNA testing by having volunteers take a Y Chromosome test.

If you are a male (or a female with husband, brother etc.) with the surname of Statler (or any variation) and are interested in helping with this research project, please email Sandra for more information.

To view the current results of the DNA Project or to get more information, just visit Sandra's website:  The Statler/Stetler/Stotler Surname Project.

Also at her website you can find updated information about the various family groups she initially setup in her "Statler/Stetler/Stotler Newsletters" that were published in 1986 & 1987.

Statler Surname Origins

The following surname origins were taken from the Dictionary of American Family Names, Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-508137-4:

STADLER
German: from a derivative of Middle High German stadel ‘barn’, ‘granary’, hence a topographic name for someone who lived near a barn or granary, or occupational name for an official who was responsible for receiving tithes into the manorial storehouse. The surname is also occasionally borne by Ashkenazic Jews, apparently as an adoption of the German surname. It is also found in Slovenia, where it is commonly spelled Štadler.

STADTLER
1. variant of Stadler.
2. habitational name from a place named Stadtl, in Bohemia.

STATLER
Variant of German Stadler.

STETLER
Altered spelling of German Stettler.

STETTLER
German: habitational name for someone from Stettlen in the district of Bern, or Stödtlen in the district of Ellwangen.

STOTLER
Perhaps an altered form of German Stadtler.

STUTLER
Origin unidentified. Possibly an Anglicized form of German Statler (see Stadler).

 

If you have additional info on any of the other "Statler" spelling variations, please let me know and I'll add it here.
