Sorry Paul, I wrote 1817 instead of 1819. The HIRTZEL I mentioned are on the 1819 census. Of course there was no census every two year.

I know that they must be there. If anyone stumbles across an entry for Hirtzel in the 1819 Sundahausen census, please do let me know. Thanks. best, Paul Portland, OR
