Hi Etienne- Could you elaborate on notarial records? What do they contain, where are they available, and how does one access them? Thanks.

Hi, as Etienne said, the marriage register is not online, and not available at all at the Archives Départementales in Strasbourg. But the register is not lost. For about 3 years ago, I had access to this register and toke the pictures of the whole document, even if I was not related to Lupstein. My interest was Dettwiller, early an annex of Lupstein. At that time, the register was at the parsonage of Lupstein, empty today, and should be kept today at the parsonage of Dettwiller. I heard that the burial register should already be available, but I havn't had access to it. See http://genealogy.rohrbacher.net/tsd for several (=all) Soller's marriages of this register. Bernardi Sollers was from Bregens region, near Constance Lake, at the corners of Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It seems that Angela KÖNIG (= KOENIG) lived in Lupstein (not specified in the record). It should be noticed that a duplicate of the birth, marriage and burial registers exists, covering the date span 1743-1787. These registers have been microfilmed : Eglise catholique. Chapitre-rural de Saverne (Bas-Rhin) LUPSTEIN (comp. Ingengheim): Baptêmes, mariages, sépultures 1743-1787 - FHL INTL Film [ 724751 ] These collections have not been digitized, so are not available on line. The original paper registers are viewable at A. D. in Strasbourg, or instead viewed on LDS microfilm rolls. For the Notarial registers, the records for Lupstein can be found at A.D. in Strasbourg : collection number 6E36.2 Saverne "Baillage du Kochersberg". Date span is from begin until French Revolution (~1625 to ~1791). The records are mixed for about 25 locations of the Kochersberg, but an index of the documents is available. For SOLLERs, in this index can be found : SOLLER Bernard, Lupstein - Mariage - 20 Aug 1706 - Nr 357 SOLLER Bernard, Lupstein - Transaction - 12 Nov 1726 - Nr 1601 SOLLER Bernard, Lupstein - Inventaire - 27 Feb 1727 - Nr 1697 KOENIGin Angele, Lupstein - Inventaire - 8 May 1728 - Nr 1550 SOLLER Madeleine, Littenheim - Inventaire - 10 Oct 1729 - Nr 2060 SOLLER Marie, Lupstein - Mariage - 4 Oct 1755 - Nr 4920 SOLLER Antoine, Lupstein - Inventaire - 27 Apr 1764 - Nr 5787 SOLLER Marie, Lupstein - Mariage - 10 Jun 1766 - Nr 6016 SOLLER Antoine, Lupstein - Mariage - 6 Jan 1769 - Nr 6264 SOLLER Bernard, Lupstein - Inventaire - 1 Dec 1769 - Nr 6359 Marriages contracts took place a few weeks before the event, and inventories a few months after the death. regards, Charles.
