DAR records show Andrew as a solider of the Rev War.

Andrew's first wife was Barbary HOCH or KOCH. She was the mother of his three daughters:

Susannah born 23 April 1759 married 24 Oct 1777 to Gabriel WOODFILL/WOODFIELD.

Catherine, b. 1 Mar 1760, married 20 Oct 1777 to Joseph WOODFILL/WOODFIELD.

Elizabeth, b. 23 Apr 1763, m. 1 Nov 1779 to Daniel WOODFILL/WOODFIELD

The Woodfield boys who married the GUDGEL girls were sons of Joseph WOODFILL of England/Wales and Philadelphia, a student of John Wesley. All three boys became Methodist Ministers, as did the six sons of their sister
Mary (WOODFIELD) BRENTON who was known as "the mother of Methodism" in Kentucky and Indiana.

At one point we were also trying to prove that old Andrew was in fact a Revolutionary War patriot. After contacting the DAR Chapter that erected this memorial that is in Gibson Co., IN where an "Andrew Gudgel" is listed, we were told that our old Andrew was included in the DAR applications and at some point it was approved. Seems at that time there was a "rush" in getting names included and later they discovered there was not sufficient evidence. Apparently there were several others that fell in the same category. So sufficient proof has never been found to verify that he indeed did serve in the Revolution or at least not good enough to satisfy the DAR. I personally think he did serve in other ways such as delivering supplies to the soldiers, etc. And we have to remember that they came from the old Mennonite belief that they were "non-combatant". As far as the name on the memorial, I'm not sure at this point. www.eskimo.com/~bgudgel/gudarc1
