[HN] GRUBE in Einbeck

Date: 2006/08/01 11:32:30
From: Ahnen-Meissner <Ahnen-Meissner(a)gmx.de>

Hallo zusammen,

ich habe mich heute hier angemeldet, da sich herausgestellt hat, daß Vorfahren meiner
Lebensgefährtin aus und um Einbeck stammen.
Kurz zu meiner Person: Ich bin 31Jahre alt, wohne und arbeite in Freising und beschäftige mich
seit ca. 8 Jahren mit der Ahnenforschung. Meine Schwerpunkte liegen bislang in Württemberg, Rheinland,
Westfalen und Westpreußen.

Bei den in und um Einbeck gesuchten Personen handelt es sich um das Ehepaar Grube und Lohe:

der Gärtner Heinrich Friedrich Wilhelm Grube, * ca. 1838 in Einbeck, + 1875 in Einbeck.
Vater: Heinrich Grube aus Einbeck
verheiratet mit Henriette Friederike Lohe, * ca. 1826 in Gladebeck, + 1902 in Einbeck.
Ihr Vater ist der Tischler Andreas Lohe aus Gladebeck und Sophia Walter.

Ich suche nun  nach der Heirat der beiden und natürlich deren Vorfahren.
Bei der Lohe-Linie hilft mir hoffentlich das Ortsfamilienbuch, bei Grube bin ich auf Euch/Sie angewiesen,
da es leider auch keine KB-Verfilmung bei den Mormonen gibt.

Ich hoffe auf einen regen Austausch.

Gruß aus Bayern,
Daniel (Meißner)

From: Petra <petra.tr(a)t-online.de>

Hallo Liste, 
  
ich komme bei meinen Urgroßeltern einfach nicht weiter. Auf keiner der
Urkunden meiner Großmutter stehen außer den Namen ihrer Eltern irgendwelche
Daten. 
  
Hat irgend jemand Zugriff auf Adressbücher und/oder Meldebücher aus Hannover
aus dem Jahre 1903 bis ca. 1924 ? 
Ich versuche herauszufinden, ob und wann sie nach Hannover zugezogen sind.
Das muss nach 1903 passiert sein, denn meine Großmutter, Minna Meta
Annaliese Schwerdthelm ist 1903 in Osterode am Harz geboren. 
Eventuell haben um 1880-1895/1900 ihre Eltern auch schon mal in Hannover
gewohnt. 
Die Namen der Eltern: 
Karl Friedrich Adolf Schwerdthelm und Auguste Dorothee Karoline , geb. Grupe
 
  
Für jeden Hinweis bin ich dankbar.

Hi Barbara,

I checked my grandfather's death certificate at the Court House in Minn
and it did not have his
place of birth, just Germany.   I did find a Johann Clausen in the New
York Passenger lists
that could be him and it shows Place of Origin as PreuBen.  He sailed on
the Westphalia.  He
arrived 12 May 1880.

I also found a Margaretha Clausen, near the right age, arriving in New
York on the Suevia
with a place of Origin as PreuBen, same as Johann.  She arrived 20 Jun
1878.

It's possible she came first, but I have no way of knowing.  Is there a
way to check the
place of Origin?  I still haven't found the sister - Emma.  Don't know
her birthdate either.
Edith

Hallo Petra ,  :-)
hast du in den  standesamtlichen Bescheinigungen auch nur Namen gefunden? Hier hatte ich meist Glück, wenn in den Kirchenbüchern nichts hilfreiches stand. 
Die Meldekarteien sind auch ganz hifreich. Die sind aber von Ort zu Ort unterschiedlich gelagert, und meistens müssen, meines Wissens nach, die Personen erst 100 Jahre verstorben sein, um dort zu landen. Ich glaube das liegt am Datenschutz !
Eventuell kann jemand mich berichtigen, wenn ich falsch liege.
Hausbücher gibt es in Hannover ! Anders als in meinem kleinen Ort. 
Eventuell könnten noch Einwohnerzählungen helfen.
Liebe Grüße sendet dir Petra  :-)

Hi Edith,

     So much for the death certificate.  Maybe the marriage license for John
Peter Claussen and Mary Kroeger in Illinois in 1883 may have the place of
birth:
   http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/GenealogyMWeb/marrsrch.html

    I think that you will have to find the birthplace here in the U.S.  When
I saw that long list of Claussens (Clausens) that were on that list from
Holstein, I don't know how you can ever be sure which would be your
Claussen.  On the LDS website,  there are so many listings of a Peter
Claussen (as well as John) in that time period.  You have John Peter's
birthdate, but there could be an error there as well.

    Some passenger lists name a place of origin, but I think most do not.
Someone may know what the likelihood would be.  I would be surprised if
Margaretha would have come by herself unless she was married already.

    I would think the marriage license from the state of Illinois would tell
you if it was a church marriage or not.  Have you contacted any Church in
Rock Island? Actually, the marriages on the Illinois index are listed by
county--do you know where John Clausen lived in Ill?   I forget all the
places you have already searched.

    In  the Illinois marriage index, there are 4 Emma Claussen marriages in
1887, 1888, 1892, 1899. The spouses are listed if you care to look at them.
I thought since John Clausen and Mary Kroeger were married in Illinois, his
sisters may have been married there as well.

    There is a Margaret Clausen marriage listed in Illinois as well, but
it's in 1908. Husband Herman Fasbender. Also, a Anna Margarethe married in
1899 in Cook county to Laurits Pedersen.

    On that marriage index, you can run a search with just one last name and
see what you come up with. It's too bad not every state has such an index.

    I wish I could find that birthplace for you!

Barbara

Hi Barbara
The marriage license shows his place of birth as Holstien, Germany.
It looks like the father's name if Peder Clausen and the mother is
Elsabeth Liehm.  John was 34 when he married and Mary was 23.
this was in 1883.

Edith! 
     I think I found it!  Your John Peter's birthplace is Heide.

Dithmarschen Emigrants (1868-1920)

If a person wants to emigrate to another country, e.g., USA or Brazil, or
within Germany to another city or county, he has to make application to
leave. For Schleswig-Holstein, applications are available at Landesarchiv
Schleswig. Applications exist for only about 10 percent of the emigrants; 90
percent of emigrants either did not make applications or the application is
lost. 

A Genealogical Researcher in Dithmarschen (Mr. Jochims) has spent two years
to built this database by the informations of the applications of emigration
[Landesarchiv Schleswig Abt.309]. He was able to locate about 3600 from
Dithmarschen emigrated persons.

  Go to this page which has the names of persons beginning with C:

http://www.genealogy-sh.de/E/dithm/c.htm

   If you scroll down, there is this:

Clausen, Johann Peter Nicolaus = born in Heide on 9 Jul 1849

There is an Emma there, also from Heide - I'm not sure if she is the right
one.  You can figure all that out.

I hope this is it!
Barbara

The place of origin is Preussen (or Prussia).

What looks like a capital "B" to us is actually the German letter for "ss."

   Hallo Petra ;-P


   Ja, leider. in der Geburtsurkunde meiner Oma stehen nur die Namen
   ihrer Eltern und dass sie zu diesem Zeitpunkt in Osterode am Harz
   gewohnt haben( dort, wo meine Oma geboren ist).

   Ein Heirats - oder Sterbeeintrag der Eltern findet sich in Osterode
   nicht.

   Ich habe dann aus Hannover die Heiratsurkunde meiner Oma angefordert-
   sie hatte dort am 30.08.1923 geheiratet.


   Dort wird zu ihren Eltern ünerhaupt  keine Angabe gemacht.

   Lediglich einer der Trauzeugen wird mit Karl Schwerdthelm angegeben,
   65-jährig.

   Es könnte also ihr Vater oder Onkel gewesen sein.


   Leider ist das Standesamt in Hannover ziemlich restriktiv, was
   Auskünfte angeht.

   Meine Urgroßeltern hießen ja Karl Friedrich Adolf Schwerdthelm und
   Auguste Dorothee Karoline , geb.
   Grupe

   In der Mormonen-Datenbank habe ich nun einen

   Adolf Friedrich Karl Schwerdthelm gefunden, der mit einer Johanna
   Elisa Augusta Grupe verheiratet war und die mindestens 2 Kinder hatten
   die 1855 und 1890 in Hannover geboren sind.

   Ich vermute ja, dass der Herr mein Urgroßvater IST( der Vornamen
   wegen), aber mangels Daten (Geburt, Heirat etc.) habe ich keinerlei
   Möglichkeit, das Standesamt Hannover zum Suchen zu bewegen.

   Bei  Johanna Elisa Augusta Grupe ( von der ich annehme, sie könnte
   eine Schwester meiner Urgroßmutter sein) wurde mir zwar mitgeteilt,
   dass es Urkunden gäbe, aber da ich nicht nachweisen kann, dass ich mit
   ihr verwandt bin, bekommen ich keine Auskünfte.


   Es ist zum Verzweifeln.


   Gruß

   Petra

Edith,

      This provides some information about the county of Dithmarschen:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dithmarschen
    also:  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heide
     
      There are a number of Claussen/Clausen names  on the LDS site that
could tie in with that family. For instance, there is a Peter Claussen from
Heide, born 1825 (parents: Peter Joh.N.Claussen and Antje Speck). He could
be the father of John Peter. There is also a listing for Clausen in
Weddingstedt, which is nearby. The spelling of that name probably goes back
and forth (s or ss)

    The LDS have church records and other records for Heide that may be
helpful. I hope you are near a LDS center.  There seems to be a
Norderdithmarschen and a Suderdithmarschen (north and south?)  - probably
all the same at one time.

I am looking for the birthplace of my grandfather Alexander Meyer later known as Myers who left the Hannover area to work as a sugar baker in Liverpool around 1862.
His father was either Alexander,a farmer or William a butcher.He married in Liverpool in 1865 and had 2 further marriages,my grandmother being the last one in 1894.
He died in Liverpool 1912.

daughter Eliza, age 5?  It's on the LDS page.  That would make him born
about 1841--right?

Re: [HN] Finding Great Grandfather

Date: 2006/08/03 13:59:07
From: jmbtwb <jmbtwb(a)isd.net>

Many times, it is very difficult to find the place of origin in Germany. There is one source that is not mentioned very often which was very useful for me. The source is church registration records in the U.S. When a new member joins a church, they often have to register. In my case, I was trying to find the place of birth of my oldest uncle. In the church registration records of new members in my home town church, my grandparents had to state the place and date of each baptism of the current family members to document that they were members of the Lutheran church and had been baptized. This information confirmed the place of baptism of each of my grandparents and also my oldest uncle!! I don't know if all churches had this kind of record, but it is sure worth asking about. Unfortunately, as we are searching, if we don't ask the right question, we don't get the right answer!! And, this is a source that many people do not know about.

I just returned from a wonderful trip to Germany visiting the areas of both Magdeburg and Lüneburg. At the Lüneburg Stadtarchiv, I was searching for an old address book to tell what houses my family lived in, which the archiv did not have for the years I was searching. I continued to ask questions as to what other records they had that would contain addresses. I ended up searching through several tax record books (not indexed), eventually finding my two families. I came home with wonderful old photos of my family homes from the archives along with new photos!! So, if one door closes, hopefully another door will open!

Hello Mr./Mrs. no name,
if you are interested I may send you an article about German merchants and sugar bakers (though written in German). It mainly deals with German immigrants to England during the 18th and 19th century. The title is: Margrit Schulte Beerbühl, Horst Rössler "Kaufleute und Zuckerbäcker - Zum Verhältnis von Migrations- und Familienforschung der deutschen Englandwanderung des 18. und 19.Jahrhunderts". Sorry, I don't know where and when it was published.

Dear Eberhard,

My great, great grandfather was a sugarbaker who came to England about 1850
from Hannover. His name was Diedrich Klinker. I wonder if you could send
me a copy of the article too. I'd be very grateful.

Thanks and regards,

Keith Sturges

| Many times, it is very difficult to find the place of origin in Germany.
| There is one source that is not mentioned very often which was very useful
| for me.  The source is church registration records in the U.S.  When a new
| member joins a church, they often have to register.  In my case, I was
| trying to find the place of birth of my oldest uncle.  In the church
| registration records of new members in my home town church, my 
grandparents
| had to state the place and date of each baptism of the current family
| members to document that they were members of the Lutheran church and had
| been baptized.  This information confirmed the place of baptism of each of
| my grandparents and also my oldest uncle!!
| I don't know if all churches had this kind of record, but it is sure worth
| asking about.  Unfortunately, as we are searching, if we don't ask the 
right
| question, we don't get the right answer!!  And, this is a source that many
| people do not know about.
|
| I just returned from a wonderful trip to Germany visiting the areas of 
both
| Magdeburg and Lüneburg.  At the Lüneburg Stadtarchiv, I was searching for 
an
| old address book to tell what houses my family lived in, which the archiv
| did not have for the years I was searching.  I continued to ask questions 
as
| to what other records they had that would contain addresses.  I ended up
| searching through several tax record books (not indexed), eventually 
finding
| my two families.  I came home with wonderful old photos of my family homes
| from the archives along with new photos!!  So, if one door closes, 
hopefully
| another door will open!

Re: [HN] Suche nach Ururgrosseltern B ö senberg (Boesenberg) in Hannover Stadt/Land

Hello Loretta, 

      On the LDS (Mormon) website there is a listing of Willy Boesenberg,
christened 9 Dec 1859 in Hannover Stadt. That could fit with a Nov. 12 1859
birth.  
His parents are:
Heinrich Wilhelm Boesenberg and Sophie Wilhelmine Gruender.

Good luck!

[HN] Saint's Dates

Date: 2006/08/04 18:41:19
From: bmspeckman <bmspeckman(a)aol.com>

Dear Hanover Listers,  (German Version Below)
 
I have been told that some Germans in the 1800s would use their Saint's Day (day of the year) as their "birthday". That is when asked for their birthdate, they would give the Saint's Day and their birth year as their birthdate (instead of their date of birth). I have been told that this might be why some Germans in my family seem to have two sets of birth days.
 
First of all, have any of you heard this same theory? 
Second, if this is true, does anyone know where I might find a list of Saint's Days? My realatives were Catholic.
 
Thanks for your help,
 
Friendly Greetings,
 
German Version from computer translation
 
Liebe Hanover Listers, 
Ich bin erklärt worden, daß einige Deutsche im 1800s Tag ihres Heiligen (Tag des Jahres) als ihr "Geburtstag" verwenden würden. Das ist, wenn es um ihren Geburtstag gebeten wird, würden sie den Tag des Heiligen und ihr Geburt Jahr als ihr Geburtstag geben (anstelle von ihrem Geburtsdatum). Ich bin erklärt worden, daß dieses sein konnte, warum einige Deutsche in meiner Familie scheinen, zwei Sätze Geburt Tage zu haben. 
Zuerst von allen, haben irgendwelche von Ihnen diese gleicheTheorie gehört? 
Zweitens wenn dieses zutreffend ist, weiß jemand, wo ich eine Liste von Tagen Heiligen finden konnte?
  Dank für Ihre Hilfe, 
  Freundliche Grüße,
  Barney Speckman

Many times, it is very difficult to find the place of origin in Germany. There is one source that is not mentioned very often which was very useful for me. The source is church registration records in the U.S. When a new member joins a church, they often have to register. In my case, I was trying to find the place of birth of my oldest uncle.

Unfortunately, as we are searching, if we don't ask the right question, we don't get the right answer!! And, this is a source that many people do not know about.

Hallo,

on this site you can look for the Saint's days:

http://www.katholische-kirche.de/namenstag.asp

In earlier days catholic people didn't celebrate their birthday. They only
celebrated the Saint's day. I believe that is why some people did't know
when their birthday was.

Best wishes

It will probably concern the name days. The Kalendarium contains both the names of the most important holy one and blessed one (name from the liturgical calendar, diocese and patronage-holy)
On the day of the yearly, which corresponds to the own name, as name day one celebrates. For example Johannes. The 8. March is the day, which is geweiht Johannes. Who carries now the name Johannes, has thus to 8. March name day.


To the name day calendar and/or holy calendar see http://www.autobahnkirche.de/info-container/hk/ueber-jahr-kurz.html - unfortunately on German, but it gives certainly also in English.

Hallo Frau Felicitas and Herr Peter (Hestermann),
 
Thank you for the information. I see from the web site that some names have more than one date which makes this even more interesting. For example, Hermann is listed on four days (7.4, 21.5, 6.8 and 24.9).
 
Thanks again,

Hi Barney,

     I'm about as Catholic as they come. My ancestry is totally German, from
Westfalen, Rheinland, and Hannover. My husband's German side came from
Bavaria.  Children may have been born on a certain feastday of a saint and
then take that saint's name.  It is more common to find a birthdate and a
baptismal date. With my research in Germany and England, I often cannot find
a birthdate at all, only a baptismal date.
  Look here to find the long lists of Saints' days:

Hello Barney,
I have grown up in a Roman Catholic area, called Oldenburger-Münsterland (southern of the Oldenburg province).
When I was still a child, we knew two personal holidays. Birthday(Geburstag) and name day(Namenstag). The Namenstag was the day of Saint Werner. The Geburtstag was always important and got given a little. Not however to the Namenstag. We have forgotten the Namenstag today, but here a URL to a Saint calendar(Heiligenkalender):

Thank you for the Saint's Day web site! Although all my known ancestors were Protestant, in one series of church films I kept running into references to "Simon Judah" day -- and had never found it on any list. "Simon" turned up with "Judah" following - and while the computer translation is laughable, I can now understand who "they" were - and assume that apparently the references had more to do with the onset of winter than anything else!

Re: [HN] Saint's Dates

From: J b <johnbrene(a)hotmail.com>

And I'm about as heathen as they come and can tell you some things never change. While certain exceptions may apply, I doubt any large blanket scenario like the one you originally theorized holds much weight when weighed across the board Barney. More than likely it all comes down the the family or individuals in question, the educations they were or were not afforded, and the over all circumstances they found themselves in (financial, spiritual, degree of stability, etc.), beyond time and place of course. One can imagine the local or regional church authority had a certain say in this also, in what was and wasn't chosen to be recorded in their registers, and this added to any ongoing confusion. Or perhaps lacking the true date, some folks opted to adopt the only other reasonable or known alternative: their saint's day (sounds good to me). ;) If it were truly a widespread practice in the 19th century in Germany, someone offer up what details are known please! Perhaps this will explain why the origins of uncle Otto never fits anything (and I know that guy was no saint). :-)

If it weren't for the increased documentation by the state with the progression of time, many even today might not know their birth date, hard as that may be to believe. I am still prone to forget my own exact age and even birthdays on occasion, though this is more out of denial than any creeping sense of senility I suspect (started during my thirties I recall). Ah yes, and they say most things get better with age. My retort: sweet 16, kindly come again!

Raised by a Catholic mother and jack-Protestant father (with plenty of nuns in the mix) so what should you expect. I still look at my birth certificate and suspect forgery. There is NO way I'm that old!

Happily heathen but fearing judgment day [plonk!]

Hi Barney,

I'm about as Catholic as they come. My ancestry is totally German, from
Westfalen, Rheinland, and Hannover. My husband's German side came from
Bavaria. Children may have been born on a certain feastday of a saint and
then take that saint's name. It is more common to find a birthdate and a
baptismal date. With my research in Germany and England, I often cannot find
a birthdate at all, only a baptismal date.
Look here to find the long lists of Saints' days:

Re: [HN] Saint's Dates

Date: 2006/08/05 23:51:47
From: Maureen <mcshelly2(a)msn.com>

I have three comments on the topic, if you can bear with me:

1) Many people celebrated their own Saint's Day, even in America. On the Feast of St. Joseph my Irish-American mother-in-law in Chicago, for instance, always had a big family dinner honoring her husband and firstborn son. But it was never claimed that was their birthday. Their birthdays were celebrated, too, and with gifts. So it might be likely a person who DID NOT KNOW when he was born might be advised by a religious person to use his Saint's day. I was raised in a very religious family (German-American mother) that never even discussed an individual's Saints Day. Nor did I ever hear anyone mention it until after I was married. So I, too, think it was at most a local or family custom, perhaps, but not widespread.

2) My own 2nd great-grandfather did not know his birthdate as his parents died in the Irish Famine when he was a small child. When he got to America everyone started asking for a birthdate. He figured he was a year or two younger than his cousin Charlie in Galway. As they got on the boat for America he was asked his age. He asked his companion and older cousin Ed, "When do you think Charlie was born?" and cousin Ed gave it his best shot. And then my Great Ed subtracted a year. Later on he needed more than just an age. For the particular day, he chose the day he landed in New York .... May 26. During the Great Famine, I guess, Moms weren't having little birthday parties and the rural Irish weren't sending birthday cards to wee lads. Germany had similar devastations from corn and potato blight in the 1840s and no one cared when you were born. It was simply not important in rural 18th and 19th centuries. Perhaps not important at all until Joyce Hall founded Hallmark.

If my Great Ed had asked a priest what he should do for a birth date, the priest might well have suggested using his Saint's Day, but Great Ed found his own day his own way.

The Saint's Day might well have been used in Christian orphanages of that time, too, if the birth date wasn't known. They had to put down SOMETHING for name and date and often knew neither!

3) It has been said that in Ireland there was a monetary fine if a birth was not registered within something like 30 days. Well, I guess that worked well for city folks and those who rode in coaches with fast horses. But for the rural folk it was nigh onto impossible to get those babies registered on time with the civil authority, especially in winter. Often if required a walk of 12 or 20 miles of a rural nursing mother who would have to carry her babe in arms. So they registered the births when they could ....... perhaps when they were going to a market day to sell their sheep and spun wool ... and they gave a date that fit within the allotted time for avoiding the penalty of a fine. They saw it as a chore, that was all. They could not foresee it would do them or the child any good .... or that it would be important to us. They took care of what was important to them, of course: the Godparents were pre-selected and the baby was always baptized as quickly as possible, to have the stain of original sin removed and the possibility of eternal life in heaven assured .... and to have all of that recorded for posterity where it really counted for something, in God's book.

[HN] Alexander Myers (Meyer)

Date: 2006/08/06 15:47:34
From: Rena McCarthy <rena(a)rena24.fsnet.co.uk>

In reply to:- d.foulkes <d.foulkes(a)tiscali.co.uk>

Hi Doreen,
Coincidentally there were some Meyer neighbours of my families in and around Salzgitter 1832-1860 on the Leibenburg 74 films, unfortunately their names were Bernard and Christoph Meyer but that's not to say there weren't many others with the same surname in the surrounding villages.


I'm surprised you give two possibilities for Alexander's father but I can visualise an English vicar copying the first name by mistake instead of the given name immediately before the surname. To further muddy the waters a farmer could also be a qualified butcher :-)) Have you looked on the 1861 English census for more clues to see if Alex is living with or near other Hannoverians? Sometimes these are family or were neighbours in the home country and another avenue to search would be to try to contact descendants of these people. In the same vein I discovered that every descendant of my immigrant gt. grandfather that I found and contacted had the same photo and crucially on the back of one copy was every date and bit of information I needed - if only I'd found the 94 year old grand daughter earlier instead of last month, what a lot of effort it would have saved!

There doesn't appear to be any surviving Ev. Lutheran church records for the Liverpool area but I see there is still a Lutheran church in that city and I wonder if they have any surviving records? As one lister has already said; marriages, deaths and even baptisms give grandparents names and towns of origin. As can be seen on the Liverpool 1881 census 'Meyers' is quite a common name and to lessen the odds of finding the wrong forebears I suggest you work out the possible months of Alexander's birth from his age at the dates of the census, marriage and death records.

Have you seen on the Anglo German Fam. History Soc. (AGFHS) site that they have some Hannoverian emigration names?:-
----
Wurttemberg Indexes
Six volumes of indexes listing people who emigrated from Wurttemberg
between the 1 820s and about the time of WWI. With references to possible
further information on LDS films.
---
The only other suggestion I can make is to email the Ev. Lutheran archives in Wurttemberg giving dates and names in order of birth of Alex's children

Danach verliert sich die Spur. Sollte im Umkreis von Holenberg - Golmbach

gibt auch andere Schreibweisen ) sowie auf Ritterbusch zu achten. Vielleicht 
habe ich ja Glück.

Mit freundlichem Gruß aus dem Harzvorland

Subject: Re: [HN] Saint's Dates


And I'm about as heathen as they come and can tell you some things never change. While certain exceptions may apply, I doubt any large blanket scenario like the one you originally theorized holds much weight when weighed across the board Barney. More than likely it all comes down the the family or individuals in question, the educations they were or were not afforded, and the over all circumstances they found themselves in (financial, spiritual, degree of stability, etc.), beyond time and place of course. One can imagine the local or regional church authority had a certain say in this also, in what was and wasn't chosen to be recorded in their registers, and this added to any ongoing confusion. Or perhaps lacking the true date, some folks opted to adopt the only other reasonable or known alternative: their saint's day (sounds good to me). ;) If it were truly a widespread practice in the 19th century in Germany, someone offer up what details are known please! Perhaps this will explain why the origins of uncle Otto never fits anything (and I know that guy was no saint). :-) 
 
If it weren't for the increased documentation by the state with the progression of time, many even today might not know their birth date, hard as that may be to believe. I am still prone to forget my own exact age and even birthdays on occasion, though this is more out of denial than any creeping sense of senility I suspect (started during my thirties I recall). Ah yes, and they say most things get better with age. My retort: sweet 16, kindly come again! 
 
Raised by a Catholic mother and jack-Protestant father (with plenty of nuns in the mix) so what should you expect. I still look at my birth certificate and suspect forgery. There is NO way I'm that old! 
 
Happily heathen but fearing judgment day [plonk!]
