Aida and Gloria, you are both right. No Folbertsviller in Lorraine, but a Folpersviller, which has been included in 1971 to the town Sarreguemines (French name of Saargemünd). See: http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Folpersviller Aida: - Colmar is in Haut-Rhin, Alsace, whereas Sarreguemines is in Moselle, Lorraine; not close. - Habkirchen is in Saarland, Germany - HAAS is a very common surname in all areas that belong or belonged to the German linguistical sphere: Germany, Alsace, Moselle, etc. Good luck Etienne Le 29 juin 11 à 10:36, Aida Kraus a écrit : Thank you Gloria, Folbertsviller is in France now, it might have belonged to Lorraine at that time, looking at the historical milestones. Folbertsviller might have belonged to Habkirchen and I had people check there in the family books, but they could not find any Haas listed there either. The registration at Vienna says clearly that he is from "Volpertsweiler" and now I will have to look closer at births at this Folschviller! Thanks for this, have to find it on a map now and if it is in the Saargemünd area! The Haas people listed at family search are from Colmar, but unless I know the name of Jacob Haas father, I have nothing to go on. Unfortunately. Colmar is even closer to Folbertsviller, it was the German Volbertsweiler in 1763, and there are many Haas families at Colmar listed at family search. So I need the groom's parents names who may be listed at the wedding at Saargemünd, or a Family book entry giving Jacob Haass parents name to connect. I think I will ask the LDS family research center, if they have a microfilm for that time for the catholic registers at Saargemünd. Thank you so much for your effort! Good night!

Hi, The Catholic community of Folperswiller was in the parish of Frauenberg prior to 1890. The Lutheran community of Folperswiller was in the parish of Sarreguemines. source: book "Das Reichsland Elsaß-Lothringen". Frauenberg (Lorraine) is located about 2km of Folperswiller (Lorraine) which is located about 4km of Saargemünd /Sarreguemines (Lorraine).

Hi Aida, Here what I found online at http://hotchkissclan.org/gen/Records/INDIs/II2663.html - the parents and grandparents of Angela DUMONT are listed - Jakob HAAS b. 19 Sept 1766 in Gennweiler, m. 22 nov 1785 Angela DUMONT in Gottlob (Banat). - Angela DUMONT d. in Banat You wrote that << ANGELA DIMON (DUMONT) born 18. Sept. 1766, at Gennweiler, Illingen, Saar, married 22. October 1785 at Saargemünd/Lothringen JAKOB HAASS, (HAAS, HASS, HAASZ) Carpenter/Builder **born 1763 at Volpertsweiler, Lorraine (this is now Folbertsviller, France) >>. Two differents versions of the same family??? << Jakob HAAS b. 19 Sept 1766 in Gennweiler>> << ANGELA DIMON (DUMONT) born 18.
