Dear Coble researchers, I continue to search for the originial documentation of the Coble/Kobel family name in Germany and have reviewed most of the data on the descendants of Albrecht Kobel that has been posted both in RootsWeb-WorldConnect and Family Tree Maker-World Family Tree. In addition, I have both articles by Shirley Turner on the Kobel family in the National Genealogical Society Quarterly but they too do not refer to original German documentation. The details provided by these references indicates that someone has reviewed the original records. So far everything that I have found has referenced other researchers and not the original documentation. What I am looking for is specific references to birth, baptism, marriage, death, etc. in the original German church or civil documentation. From the available information this would seemingly be from the communities of Ulm, Oberdorf, Donauwörth, Nördlingen, and Hoffenheim. I am in the early planning stages of a trip to Germany next year and hope to review some of this material. If anyone can provide some assistance in this quest I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!...........Larry Coble
