Father of Johann Michael Helferich
Hello, my 3x great grandfather was Johann Michael Helferich, born in most probably Marburg in ~1768. I am trying to find his father and mother, as well as his wife's,
but have struck out. I believe his wife was Elisabeth Cathrina Metzger. Please see attached. Any information on Johann's or Elisabeth's parents would be appreciated, thank you.

What is the last exact piece of information you have? You'll need to start with the last thing you know (exact town, exact name, and exact date of an event) and work back in time one step at a time.
According to the family tree at https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/L5NF-SWB the son Johann Ludwig Helferich you have listed above was born in 1806, not 1826 (1826 wouldn't fit with his parents' ages anyway). You'll want to comb through all the information you see for this family in the FamilySearch Tree to verify whether it's correct (such as Johann Michael Helfrich's parents' and wife's names), but there are many records attached to their individual pages as sources.
