I have an Antoni Family in Sickingen, Baden, Germany. They are there at least from the 1700's.
Francis Xavier ANTONI b Sondheim?? m Catherine Wammesberger in 1736 in Sickingen. 7 children: Eva Maria Catherine b 1739, Anna Christina b 1741 m Thomas LEISS, Maria Appolonia b 1744 m Lorenz UTZ, Johann Michael b 1750, Anna b 1754, Anna Maria b 1754 (same person??)
Johann Adam b 1756.
These Antoni's married into the BRAUCH & LEISS families.
I know this is early, but does anyone have any connection to this family?
Also, does anyone know how an Italian (or at least Antoni sounds Italian) came to settle in Baden Germany in the 1700s?
Thanks.
