Hi,

I came across your post today. My relatives immigrated from the Sigmaringen-area in 1883 and spelled their last name "Ströbele". Most of the Ströbele family back to 1730, originated from Habsthal (now Ostrach), near Sigmaringen. Do you have any relatives from that area?

Thanks,

Dave

Back in 2005, someone named Ann at the e-mail address, AERmailbox@aol.com, asked that I keep an eye open for this obituary. However, now that I've located it, she's no longer at that e-mail. So I'm posting the obituary out here in hopes that she stumbles across it somehow.

On March 3, 1883, she was married to Franklin S. Butz, by the Rev. Bohner. Besides her husband, there survive one son, Erwin; four grandchildren: Flora, wife of Roger Butz; Dorothy, widow of O.

I am also seeking Strobels from these locations: Essen, Sigmaringen (Hohenzollern), and Erlenbach am Main.

My great grandfather in question was Johann Joseph Strobele. We do not know where he was born or to whom. I did receive the birth records of his 3 sons yesterday and can see that they do spell their surname "Strobele".

Herman Butz (1843 - ?) Family - Wisconsin

Herman BUTZ was born in Wusterwitz, Pomerania, Germany in April 1843 and was still alive in 1920. His parents were Christian BUTZ and Caroline DOMANN BUTZ. He married Sophie HARTLAGE in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1902. Children were Helen M. BUTZ (1901-?), who was Sophie's child and apparently adopted, Sophia D. BUTZ (1903-?), and William BUTZ (1907-1990).

I research all HARTLAGE families in the United States. Although Sophie HARTLAGE BUTZ is not in my branch, I'd like to learn more about her and her family. Does anyone have this family in their data?

Re: Butz families and the Hasenclever Germans

janekilgore7 — 2007-04-10 15:32:29Z

Eileen: I have not heard from anyone concerning the Hasenclever Germans. You asked me to reply if I didn't.
It's very possible my ancestor, William Butz/Butts, is the one listed at the forge in NJ, who then moved to Berks Co. PA, as his name is listed in the Goshenhoppen Catholic Church records there, being married to a Magdalen Kuhn, August 13, 1776. My ancestor, John Henry Butz/Butts, whose father is listed as William, was born in Berks County. There is a John Henry Butts listed in those same records, son of Christian and his wife Catherine,born Aug.1, 1777, so maybe my records were wrong...old Bible records.
Any suggestions? Jane Butts Kilgore

I am trying to trace my Butts/Butz roots in Berks Co. PA. I have a William Butz who had a brother Christian and they had a forge in NJ. I may be a direct descendant ot William & Magdelena of Berks Co.A as I have records of the Goshenhoppen Catholic church there and the names of some children of theirs who were baptized. The only proved record I have is of John Henry Butts of Franklin Co. whose father,William was buried in Fredrick, MD, by wife
Dubois Clerge, or was buried by Dubois the clergy, as the record is very old and writing is bad. They were Catholic. John Henry also worked at a forge in Franklin Co. PA, so that is the common thread. William and brother Christian were in the Rev. War together. Any similarities here?

Magdalen Kuhn was the eldest daughter of MIchael,Jr. and Eva Kuhn/Khuen of Philadelphia, Ruscomb Manor and Hereford, Bally, PA. Michael,Jr and Eva arrived in Philly in 1753 on the ship Beulah. Probably from Switzerland.

According to my records. Willliam and Magdalen (Mary Margaret) had 4 boys(William Peter, Lawrence, Augustine and Charles) who all died with in 3 to 4 months after they were born and are buried in the church yard at Bally.

Is this the family that you are looking for?

I spent 2 days in Butzbach 2 weeks ago...what a wonderful old city to visit! I took many photos including the ones from the "Evangelical" (As opposed to Catholic" church that was there before even before the time of our recorded ancestors, and of the ROman Wall. MAde 2 visits to the museum in Butzbach, and discovered that any of us who came from there can count Celtic, Roman and German amoung our heritage! THere was a statue of a Roman soldier that looked so much like my Dad I Felt like Giving him a daughterly kiss!

They ahve an amazing collection of miniature shoes representing the whole span of known life in the area, from Celtic shoes on to modern day.

IF anyone would like jpg photos of Butzbach I Can e-mail them to you.

I was not able to do any research but just wanted to walk where the ancestors had walked and see what they had seen, which is quite possible with the wonderful midevil houses still there in the heart of the town.

I am now 75 and have been in very poor health, however, I have putabout three feet tall stack of info into the computer for publishing, I have about one foot to go. I am much better now with a pacemaker and I seem to have the diabetes undercontrol, so am back to work. I cannot give a time yet, but am looking forward to publishing soon. I would hate to see the work gone, it has been a long journey. My husband is a retired Colonel, USAF and we traveled so much, the genealogy had to come between raising children, traveling, etc. but my mother's family is published, and now Dad's turn.
