Suzanne, I was pleasantly surprised to receive your message on the Saltpeter Revolutionaries. As you probably know there have been a number of studies in the last decade or so, of these guys. You are certainly aware, as well, that your Martin Berger, along with his wife and six kids, were banned to the Banat after they were forced to sell their propriety in the Hotzenwald. The family settled in Umbach and the details are available in Anton Kraemer’s Ulmbach family book. Are you a subscriber to the Banat mailing list?

My ancestor, Martin Berger, was one of those who were banished. I am in Germany for a few weeks and plan to visit this memorial. I thank you for writing about it back in 1999. http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/BANAT/1999-08/0935545127 Sincerely, Suzanne Suzanne Mulvehill President-Sales Miami Tropical Plants 9481 W.

Hello Suzanne, As I was away from computer for a time, the information below might be of interest to you on your Saltpeter Rebellion question. The research was done by myself. In 1744 was the first Saltpeter rebellion in Hotzenwald, due to exorbitant taxes requested by the landowner, the bishop, as he needed additional funds to finish the basilica in St. Blasien, Black Forest. After the 5th Saltpeter rebellion, on October 9th 1755 the Empress Maria Theresia had 27 family men and their families, altogether 112 persons imprisoned and sent in chains to Banat to Beschenova, Freidorf, Karanschebesch, Lugosch, Raksch, Ujpecs (oder Vybis) und Zsackowa. Those 27 Hotzenwaelders were: Fridolin Albietz from Buch, Jakob Albietz from Etzwihl, Martin Artzner from Engelschwand, Fridolin Bär from Görwihl, Martin Bär from Hierholz, Martin Beger from Oberalpfen, Johann and Konrad Ebi from Oberalpfen, Georg Ebner from Birndorf, Fridolin Eckert from der Rütte, Fridolin Eckert from Buch, Michael Eckert from Hogschür, Leonhart Gamp from Dogern, Josef Geng from Hogschür, Johann Georg Gerspacher from Oberwihl, Nikolaus Gottstein from der Rütte, Jakob Huber from Görwihl, Adam Jehle from Dogern, Johann Baptist Kaiser from Katzenmoos, Gregor Kummer from Buch, Josef Leber from der Glashütte, Johann Marder, der Preuß from Eschbach, Johann Georg Marder from Waldkirch, Johann Meierfrom Niederalpfen, Johann Strittmatter from Görwihl, Sebastian Werni from Kiesenbach, Jakob Zimmermann from Görwihl.[6] <applewebdata://12437545-BBC6-429B-9999-17BBBB2525F7#_ftn6> Between 1751- 1805 some 180 persons emigrated from the relatively very small area of Hotzenwald to Banat.
