[SPAM]- Re: [Baden-Wurttemberg] Familien Namen - Kraus, Halbherr, Mayer, Rei??er , Butscher, Edler, Schmid of W??rttemberg
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHello Fred
This is a very belated response to your most informative response to my
enquiries over a year ago. My apologies, but going through my spam folder over
the past couple of days ¨C I¡¯ve found it!
?
Thank you so much for your advice and assistance. It is very much
appreciated.
?
As far as I know the family is Catholic and has been indefinitely.?
Unfortunately this and the family choice of religion makes my research more
challenging as you state.
?
However, I note that you have information on Sofie, which I do not have.
Please could you provide me with more details e.g. an attachment and/or
source.
?
Any further assistance is much appreciated.
Thank you.
Kind regards
Elizabeth

Elizabeth, You know you are near the beginning of the available records in much the Wurttemberg area because of the (1618-1648). The 30-Years War was between the Catholics and Protestants where each were rampaging the region burning each others churches (and records). Where records do exist there may be a gap in that period making it difficult to go further back with accuracy. The earliest possible records would be circa 1550, when the churches (both Catholic and Protestant) started recording the BMD records for common man. If you can make a connection to royalty you may be able to go further back. ? I see some of those people are indexed in the databases at FamilySearch, but there is no linkage to a FS Family Tree. I've started your family at FS FT for you with Karl Kraus and Maria-Anna Halbherr. See FSFT ID = What was the religion of the family? The daughter of Karl and Maria Anna, Sofie, was baptized in the Evangelische (Lutheran) Church in Kirchberg (OA. Gerabronn). Her marriage was also recorded the same church in Kirchberg, but was solemnized in Stuttgart. Apparently none of the other children were Evangelische, nor was their marriage. Did Sofie change religion?? There is no marriage in the Evangelische Church in Zwiefalten for Karl and Anna Marie. The Catholic record microfilms for Unlingen, Gauingen, and Zwiefalten are all digitized, however none are indexed. The digitized microfilms are restricted and may only be viewed at an LDS Family History Center.
