  • Notes 
    • This couple had 10 living children, several of which married Blasers.
      The first four or five children were born in Ludwigswinckel, Palatine, and the rest of the children were born in Gros Rederching, France (57).

      Heibert gives the marriage date as 1858. Perhaps their civil marriage was not reported until the were in Gros Rederching.

      Most of the children of this couple were buried at Walschbronn, Dorst.
