By searching the death records of Cernay, I found: Alo?se ARMBRUSTER, 49 years, book-keeper (Rechnungsf?hrer/comptable) d. in Cernay (Sennheim in German language) 21 Aug. 1882. His wife Eug?nie BAUMANN was alive and lived in Cernay at that time. source : Death record n? 81, page 1185, "Cernay, D?c?s, 1851-1882" By Googling, I found also that: - a Mr ARMBRUSTER (no given name), primary school teacher in Cernay, became primary school inspector in Mulhouse in 1865. - a Mr ARMBRUSTER (no given name), was primary school inspector in Belfort in 1875 and in 1877 - a Mr ARMBRUSTER (no given name), primary school inspector, acted as ("faisait fonction de") school inspector ("inspecteur d'Acad?mie) in Belfort (1875, 1876) Hope this helps.
