  • Notes 
    • “In 1726, we find "Hans the old" of Fronsburg, signing a lease contract "for his son Christian". It was at this point that the Pfalzhof came into the possession of the Gungerich family. Christian, who could only sign his name with a mark, was born about 1690, and had eleven children in two marriages. He died in 1752...on the Pfalzhof...We found the name of his second wife, Barbara Jutzi, in the "Palatine Mennonite Census lists" housed at the Karlsruhe Generallandesarchiv. As a widow, Barbara and her five children ran the estate. The name of his first wife is as yet unknown.” [3]
