Research status

Research status: PROBABLE. A margin insertion beside Hans Schuster’s 1676 marriage entry reads roughly “u. Michel Schüsters deß gewesenen …bauern zu Kl…”, making the groom the son of a late Michel Schüster S805. What is weak: the words after “gewesenen” and the place name are not legible, and no baptism of Hans has been found. Added 29 September 2026

Evidence: A margin insertion beside Hans Schuster's 1676 Lendsiedel marriage makes the groom the son of a late Michel Schüster. Weak or missing: The rest of the margin note and its place name are not legible, no baptism of Hans has been found, and Michel's own dates are unknown. Not yet confirmed. Know more?

  1. S805Württemberg, Germany, Lutheran Parish Registers — Lendsiedel, marriages 1676 (image 1528571-00015): Hans Schuster and Anna Maria Gronbach, 29 February 1676. Ancestry record 914964776. Image examined in the Stage 2 reading, 27 September 2026. Probable Read at full resolution: "d. 29. febr. sind copulirt worden Hannß Schüst[er] bey undern Schmerach … u. Anna Maria, Hannß Gronbachs deß jüngern, [Bauers] zu großen Allmerspann, ehelich ledige Tochter": Hans Schuster of Unter-Schmerach married Anna Maria, the single daughter of Hans Gronbach the younger, a farmer at Groß-Allmerspann. The same hamlet as Elisabetha's 1736 burial (“born Schuster of Unter-Schmerach”, S608) and the same parish as her 1678 baptism, which calls her mother simply Maria (S609). A margin insertion probably names the groom's late father as Michel Schuster, a farmer at a place beginning with K; that reading is tentative; the site gives it as Probable, accepted by Earl on 28 September 2026 pending more evidence. A crop of the entry is in documents/schuster. Collection: Württemberg, Germany, Lutheran Baptisms, Marriages, and Burials, 1500–1985.

Compiled for the Proeger family

Living adults appear by name and relationship, with the year only: no full date of birth and no home town on any page that search engines index, and a living person’s own page is kept out of search engines. Minors appear by name only — no date of birth, no birth year, no age, no school, no place, no address, no other identifying detail. A minor may be named and may appear in a family photograph; nothing further about them is published. Where it is not established whether someone is an adult or a minor, the minor rule applies.
