      ------
      BÄRENBRUNNERHOF, PALATINATE, Germany

      Christian Guth, Sr. (b. 1771) from Mehlingen, Germany, married into the Gingrich family that lived in their family home, Bärenbrunnerhof, in the Palatinate.

      After Christian married Barbara Gingrich they moved in 1802 to Bavaria, near Augsburg, and from there they immigrated to the U.S. They had five children, two of whom were Christian and Elizabeth. These two, at least, emigrated to America and the immigrant Christian is Del's great great grandfather.
