The ancestry of Peter Vogele is unknown. The literature suggests a possibility that two Vogele families were in the Lehigh/Berks Counties border area of Pennsylvania. A Fogel (von Vogel) family originally from Chur Hesse, Germany, emigrated in 1731 and settled in Lynn Township, Lehigh Co. Some moved to Upper Macungie Twp., and founded the town of Fogelsville. They were predominantly aligned with the Reformed church. Several lines of descent are reported, but no Peter Vogele is found. He may descend from one of the untraced lines.
Among the Lutheran families settled along the Little Lehigh, "who came principally from Wurtemberg" was a Wilhelm Fegley (Vogelein). No further documentation of this family has been found. Our Peter Vogele may be descended from this Wilhelm Fegley. The possibility also exists that the list of early settlers principally from Wurtemberg contained the names of some who were not from Wurtemberg. Wilhelm Fegley may in fact be connected to the Fogel family from Hesse.

More than one Peter & Elisabeth Vogele couple appear in Longswamp records, so children's parentage uncertain.)

Source notes
- There are records for multiple David Vogele baptisms, in 1779, 1790, 1804, & 1808.
Conjecture
- Journal of the Berks County Genealogical Society, Summer 1989, pg. 63 "Berks Surnames Matched to German Hometowns", associates the name Voegele with Hoffenheim in Wurtemberg. Their source is Annette Burgert's "Eighteenth Century Emigrants, Vol. I: Northern Kraichgau, Palatinate".
- Baptismal sponsors from the Longswamp Church records who appear to be of the same generations as Peter Vogele and Elisabeth Marz are: Christian, Heinrich, Philip, Abraham, Conrad , Mariga (with Christian Ritz, married in 1805), Magdalena.
