The family name Weyhausen is occasionally written Weihausen and in
Plattdeutsch Weihusen. For the most part are the persons who spell their
name Weihausen just a derivative spelling of Weyhausen but part of the
Weyhausen family?John Weyhausen

Hello John,
Weyhausen, Weihausen and Weihusen are all the same.
Until the introduction of Standesaemter (civil record offices) on Oct. 1st, 1874
in all of Prussia and
on Jan. 1st, 1875 in the entire German empire (Deutsches Reich) your family name
would be spelled and written according to what the clergyman or clerk thought
that he had heard or understood.
Sincerely yours
Falk Liebezeit
Diepholz
