From: StammbaumSchmitt <StammbaumSchmitt(a)aol.com>

Hello list,

I have traced my ancestors back to a small village in Unterfranken called 
Hundsfeld.  It is near Hammelburg.  Hundsfeld was turned into a training 
ground for the military in the mid to late 1930s.  It is still used by the 
Bundeswehr today.  There is a web site about Hammelburg and Hundsfeld is 
mentioned :                         
http://www.chancen-region.swin.baynet.de/kommunen/hab/bilderb/land.htm

The family names I am most interested in are SCHMITT and ZAHN.

Does anybody have any more information about these towns or these names?

Thanks!

To All,
Below I posted the Obits I am researching, plus some Names we found in
the Obituaries of that day and the source.

Some Names are French, German, Polish, Slovak and Italian.

Nationalities represented in the Surnames.

We are looking for more information on "Leslie E. LAMOREAUX & his wife
Anna MILLER", Beaumont, ?Dallas, Luzerne County, PA; Miller from Evans
Falls, Wyoming County, PA. 
We also need more info on Leslies Parents "Charles E. LAMOREAUX & Amy
AUSTIN", Lamoreaux were supposed to be originally from NY State and then
lived in Luzerne County, PA.

Any information is appreciated!
 
These are the obits my husband found at the Library:
http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/surnames/l/a/LAMOREAUX/obituaries


There is also some other obits from the The Times Leader, Wilkes-Barre,

Schmitt ancestors

From: ruffbj <ruffbj(a)juno.com>

Hello Paul:	My ancestral home town is Eichenbühl, Unterfranken,
Bayern - a village about 5 km from Miltenberg am Main, east of Frankfurt.
 They emigrated  in 1852 to NYC.  My Schmitt's were:  Christine Schmitt
Ruff, *1820, Johann Michael Schmitt, *1783,  Josef Schmitt, *1746, and 
had been in Eichenbühl for many generations.   The Ruff's (Anselm Ruff,
*1827, Franz Phillip Ruff, *1793, Freidrich Ruff, *1766) were from a
small village,  Riedern, about 4 km away.  Sound like a different branch.

Forschungsschwerpunkte Franken

Date: 1999/11/12 13:42:25
From: Ralph Habersack <RHab(a)compuserve.com>

Hallo!

Hier eine kurze Vorstellung meiner fränkischen Forschungsschwerpunkte:

Meine fränkischen Ahnen stammen zum größten Teil aus Unterfranken. Dort
vorallem aus Sulzfeld a. Main, aber auch aus Kitzingen, Würzburg usw. Die
Familiennamen hier alle aufzuzählen würde zu weit führen. Eine komplette
Namensliste findet sich aber auf meiner Webseite 

http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/rhab

Darüber hinaus forsche ich z.B. noch im Grabfeld (z.B. SCHLIMBACH in
Königshofen und Althausen) und in Kronach (GESSLEIN).

Schließlich noch ein paar aktuelle Suchanzeigen von mir:

Suche sämtliche Vorkommen des Namens HABERSACK in der Gegend von Würzburg
vor etwa 1760 (Zeugen, Paten, Ehefrauen, Pfarrer, in Kirchenbüchern, priv.
Aufzeichn. usw.). Insbesondere Informationen zu den Familien von Udalricus
HABERSACK (gen. 1639/45 Wü) und Joh. Baptist HABERSACK (*er 1680,
Schultheiß in Stetten b. Karlstadt a.M.) und zum Schicksal von zwei seiner
Söhne (Johannes Bernhard und Philipp Hartmann, beide gefirmt Stetten 1753).
Suche darüber hinaus Nachkommen der Würzburger Kunstschreinerfamilie GILGEN
(19. Jahrhundert), Informationen zu den Familien GROSS und RÖDELBERGER
(REDELBERGER) aus Kitzingen im 18. Jahrhundert [Gibt es "Reupelshof" bei
Kitzingen oder wird Reupelsdorf gemeint sein?].
Schließlich noch Informationen zur Familie PLAICKNER (Pleickner, Plaikner
usw.) aus Unterfranken Anfang 18. Jahrhundert (speziell Iphofen; der
Familienname könnte auf eine österreichische Herkunft schließen lassen)

Paul,

I am researching a line of Schmitts from Hundsfeld/Hammelburg which is about 
40 km due north of Würzburg.  This line is supposed to have setteled in 
Hundsfeld in the mid 1500´s, but where they came from I don´t know.  Actually 
there were two Schmitt families in Hundsfeld.  Where is Unterpreppach 
located?  What time frame are you looking at?
  
I hope I didn´t offend anybody with the heading.  I took liberty to write it 
since my name is Schmitt.

I have no other information about the SCHMITT family, except that Elisabeth 
Schmitt married Johann Wagenhäuser in about 1827, probably in Preppach or 
Unterpreppach.  They had 2 children that I know of: Rosina (my

Hi Trudy,

I have been researching the name SCHERTZER/SCHAETZER/SCHERZER.  He and his
wife ( Anna Barbara SCHEUERLEIN) came from Heilsbronn to America in 1852 and
first settled in Buffalo, NY.  Then moved on to Michigan about 1860.  Does
this sound like anybody that you have in your records.  I cannot find the
birthplace of Anna Barbara which is my ggrandfathers sister.  I could share
what little I have if would like to respond.

Yes, you are right. And till some years ago ist was an independent parish. Now it belongs to the parish in Ebern. The priest is Mr. Badum. I know him. A very nice person. I also, soon, will have to research in the Unterpreppach church books for my family. If you want, we can check your data and help you to find out more. Maybe, I'll check the books during my Christmas vacation. If possible, can you send me (as scanned file) the data you got from the Dioezesan Archive in Wuerzburg to start with. Then, starting with this, we can check. There are more Schmitt still in Preppach. Most of them related, and I suppose also related with you. I know some of them and will talk with them. Hope to hear from you and to get detailed infos to help you better.

Unfortunately I don't have a scanner as yet, but here is what was stated in 
the letter from the Diocesan Archives in Würzburg.  (I was researching 
WAGENHÄUSER, and at the time was unaware of the SCHMITT  relationship.)
"Eine 1851 in Rieden geborene Rosa Wagenhäuser habe ich nicht gefunden. Seit 
1869 taucht aber der Name Wagenhäuser in Rieden auf, und zwar heiratete 
damals ein Schullehrer Georg Anton Wagenhäuser eine Anna Maria Lauer.  Dieser 
Georg Anton ist am 5.12.1841 in Unterpreppach bei Ebern geboren.  Ich habe 
dann im Kirchenbuch Preppach nachgeschaut und dort tätsachlich die Familie 
Wagenhäuser gefunden.  Zu dem angegebenen Jahr habe ich wiederum keine Rosa 
gefunden.  Statt dessen fand ich folgenden Eintrag:  KB. Unterpreppach, (Bd. 
1, F. 2, S. 85) Rosina Wagenhäuser, Preppach, 11.Geburt.  Eltern:  Johann 
Wagenhäuser, Schullehrer dahier, Preppach Nr. 18 im Schulhaus, Elisabeth 
Wagenhäuser, geb. SCHMITT.  Rosina ist am 7.4.1844 früh 4 Uhr geboren und am 
8.4. in der Pfarrkirche getauft worden.  Rosina war das letzte Kind ihrer 
Eltern.  Von den älteren Kindern des Kindern hieß keines Rosa."
I know this is sketchy, but it is the only information I have about the 
SCHMITT family.  I'll keep my fingers crossed that there are still relatives 
in Unterpreppach!

Good morning,

I can't help you with the origin of the name Distler, but in 1960 I worked for
a company called Riggs-Distler in Baltimore. The Distler's were fairly prominent
, and you might check the Maryland Room at the Enoch Pratt Free Library. They
maintained a rather extensive obituary file at one time, and  may be able to
give you some leads.

Neuner Familienforschung / Ortsnamen Hannberg und Hubenberg

Date: 1999/11/19 16:47:05
From: Kornelia&Helmut Neuner <htneuner(a)bene-online.de>

Hallo,
habe ein e-mail von Frau Shirley Yott aus Texas/USA erhalten. Sie ist
eine geborene Neuner und sucht ihre Vorfahren, die aus Franken stammen.
Eine verwandtschaftliche Beziehung zu meinen Neuners besteht nicht.
Wer kann eventuell Shirley weiterhelfen.
Sie schrieb mir folgendes:
Ihr Großvater wurde in Hannberg geboren. Es waren - soweit sie weiß - 4
Jungen;  zwei wurden John (wahrscheinlich Johann) und zwei George
(Georg) genannt - außerdem ein Mädchen namens Kunigunda. Ihr Großvater
John wurde am 13. Januar 1871 geboren. Ein Bruder (Georg) wurde am 21.
November 1882 geboren. Die Eltern waren Johann Neuner, geboren am 21.
Dezember 1835 und gestorben am 24. November 1897
und Margaret Gebhart, geboren 12. Oktober, 1839 in Hubenberg und
gestorben am 2. Februar 1898.
Habe im Postleitzahlenbuch nachgesehen und 2 Orte namens Hannberg
gefunden, und zwar
Hannberg, welches nun zu Waischenfeld gehört (PLZ 91344) und
Hannberg, welches nun zu Großenseebach/Heßdorf gehört.
Ein Hubenberg konnte ich nicht ausfindig machen.
Meine Fragen:
Kennt jemand ein Hubenberg in Franken ?
Wer kann Shirley eventuell weiterhelfen bei der Suche nach ihren Neuners
?
Vielen Dank für jegliche Untersützung.
Die e-mail Adresse von Frau Shirley Yott:
yott(a)livingston.net
Falls jemand direkt an Frau Yott schreiben möchte - bitte dies in
Englisch. Helfe jedoch gerne auch wegen eventueller Übersetzung.
Allerdings ist mein Englisch nicht das Beste.
Herzlichen Dank an alle, die weiterhelfen

Hello Larry,

Perhaps you can stick these persons together.

The Pemsel-family-members who where watch makers owned the house in 
the Kirchgasse 1:
Johann Pemsel, Uhrmacher, owned this house from 1817 until 1851.
Johann Konrad Pemsel owned it from 1851 until 1890.
Albert und Marie Pemsel owned it from 1890 until 1906.
Anna, Susanna und Konrad Pemsel around 1942.

One Johann Pemsel was a Ratsherr (member of the town council) from 
1771 until 1803. His wife was the daughter of Christian Geusser who 
was a Ratsherr from 1727 until 1763.
(The father was Georg Albrecht Geusser, Ratsherr from 1703-1725.
The grandfather was Johann Albrecht Geusser, Ratsherr from 
1691-1696.)

Two brothers Konrad Pemsel and Johann Pemsel moved to Hersbruck. 
Konrad Pemsel owned a house in the year 1714 and Johann another 
house in the street Eisenhuettlein 7 from 1728 - 1756. Johann had a 
son Johann who had this house from 1756-1798, then got Nikolaus 
Gottlieb Pemsel this building from 1798-1830. 

Perhaps Nikolaus and Johann, the watch maker, were brothers.

Geroda and Platz (in Plaintext)

Date: 1999/11/20 02:41:32
From: Bob Hegerich <hegerich(a)erols.com>

HELP!

The towns of Geroda and Platz are in the Unterfranken area southeast
of Bad Brueckenau.  I have seen any number of 18th Century records
that refer to a "Platz Brueckenau" and these records all come from the
register of the Evangelical Church in Geroda.  At some point, "Platz
Brueckenau" disappears from these records and the village of "Platz"
starts to appear.  I have always assumed that the villagers simply got
tired of writing and saying "Brueckenau", and so dropped that part of
the name.

Recently I came across records from the same period that seemed to
refer to "Platz, Brueckenau", and my guess is that this is simply an
error.  Also, in other records I see the term "Geroda-Platz", and I
assume that this was simply a transcriber's convenience for referring
to the general area.  I understand that Platz was combined into
Geroda, but my recent 1:250,000 map of Bavaria clearly shows both
Geroda and Platz.

The bottom line is that I currently believe the following:

a. There exist the villages of Geroda and Platz, possibly both under a
single administration
b. The village of Platz was formerly known as Platz Brueckenau
c. There is no area around them known simply as "Brueckenau", except
perhaps for the city of Bad Brueckenau.
d. There is no area known as Geroda-Platz

Can anyone out there tell me if this is right, wrong, or both?

Thanks.

Bob,

I can't speak to all of your conclusions, but Brueckenau did indeed
exist as a unique town; my father was born there in 1920.  It was about
2 miles from Bad Brueckenau, and has since been incorporated into Bad
Brueckenau.  I believe this incorporation may have taken place
relatively recently (a vague memory says about 10 years ago).

Geroda-Platz

Date: 1999/11/20 05:21:41
From: David F Schmidt <dfschmidt(a)earthlink.net>

Bob Hegerich asked about Platz Br�ckenau and Geroda-Platz.

I am familiar with these towns but have never hear the term "Platz Br�c
kenau" before.  There may be a number of towns in Germany named Platz. 
If so, I wonder whether this term means the Platz that is located near
Br�ckenau (i.e., Bad Br�ckenau).

As for "Geroda-Platz," this is term that I have seen often.  The two
villages of Geroda and Platz are located right next to one another and,
historically, have been served by the same protestant (Lutheran)
church.  I believe that the church always has been located in Geroda. 
In any event, the towns are so close and interconnected that they often
are referred to collectively as Geroda-Platz.

Are you researching families in Geroda or Platz?  I believe that my
SCHNEIDER family comes originally from Geroda or Platz.

There is no Johann Paul Zerwick in the Haeuserbuch.
These are all Zerwicks in it:

One person or family came from Hochstadt an der Hohen Muehl in the 
year 1704 to Hersbruck. 
Georg Zerwick owned a house from 1714-1758
Descendants are:
Erhard Zerwick owned a house from 1749-1769
Johann Zerwick owned a house from 1780-1789


A second person or family came from Wildenreuth and settled in the 
year 1719 in Hersbruck. Peter Zerwick owned a house from 1753-1783.

I hope one of the owners fits together with your ancestors.

Many greetings from

Hello Paul,
7bris means septembris (September)
8bris means octobris (Oktober)
9bris means novembris (November)
Xbris means decembris (X is the latin form of ten) (Dezember)
In former times the numbering of the months was different from today, so
that the Dezember was the tenth month (today the twelfth)

Re: Geroda-Platz

Date: 1999/11/20 17:19:14
From: Larry Flinner, Jr. <llflinner(a)webtv.net>

<<Bob Hegerich asked about Platz Brückenau and Geroda-Platz.>>

I too, have been studying this area for some time, trying to figure out
the various references to place names.  I have come across those
mentioned, as well as "Brueckenau-Platz" (and "Platz-Brueckenau").

We know that the village of Platz (just outside of Geroda) has been
incorporated into (or is "now a part of") 97779 Geroda, this a result of
the German government's "geographical / administrative" reforms begun in
the mid-1970's (ca. 1974).  This village of "Platz" shows up quite often
in the various "map and other" searches I have tried.  I have seen no
evidence of any other city, town, village, farm, or pebble named "Platz"
in this (97779 Geroda / 97769 Bad Brueckenau) area (97779 & 97769 are
the respective area codes).

When doing a study of these terms-- "Geroda" and "Platz" I generally
find the following:

Geroda:  shows up as "Markt. Geroda"

Platz:  translates as "place" or perhaps a better translation is
"workstation".
----

My thinking is that Geroda is or has been primarily a "market town" with
businesses concentrating on buying and selling goods, while Platz is or
has been an industrial village, concentrating on the manufacture of
goods for sale.  Would this be a fair understanding of these two towns,
or am I "out in left field" here?  

I have not been able to locate any web sites or books to aid in
understanding the historical or other circumstances concerning this
area.

I have been researching the surnames "FLINNER" & "SIEGMANN" from this
area.

Any Thoughts very much appreciated.

Hello Paul,

the meanings for:
7 bris     is    September
8 bris     is    October
9 bris     is    November
X bris     or
10 bris    is    December

This comes from the latin words e.g. 7=septem so it
means September
8=octem, 9=novem, 10=decem

I think that is all you need to know about the dates.
I think I have to knwo that, because I live in Germnay
and my ancestors did so, too!!

Perhaps you like to write back, my adress is
mir_seling(a)yahoo.de

Good bye, Mirjam.

Does anybody know where the town Rothof is located?  It is supposed to be 
near Würzburg but I can´t find it on any map.

Thanks,
