Hi Renate, realizing this is an old post, do you have any idea what may have been a succeeding church, or an OLDER church for residents of Fautenbach?
My earliest SCHWANTZ/KOHLER family is Andreas Schwantz and
Anna Maria KOHLER. For this couple I have not vital informaiton but they appear in Fautenbach birth records for ten children born in Fautenbach between 1725 and 1744. I have marriages in Fautenbach and continuing family information for Maria Evan marriage to Hieronymous HAUSER (see below) in 1755, for Blasius married to Rosina Pfieffer in 1757 and for Joseph married to Christina Hodapp in 1752
My earliest HAUSER/WEBER family is Michael Hauser (?-1751)and Franciska Weber (-1766). I have death records for both from Fautenbach church. All else I know of them is that they had five chilren. Four were born in Fautebach (Hieronimous 1726 / Maria Elizabetha 1729 / Maria Anna 1733 / Johann Bernard 1737) and a fifth noted in Oensbach familienbuch born POSSIBLY as early as 1717 though that seems unlikely.
Since I have not come across any death records for the children (yet) I surmise they may have moved to another parish, possibly without themselves moving?
I also speculate they may have been part of an earlier parish prior to Fautenbach, any ideas where I might look?
Finally you referenced a Christina Weber marrying Johann Ell in Fautenbach. Is the fire you referenced in 1724 at the Fautenbach or Onsbach church?
