Gerold, I, too, have Lentz in my family--also the Johannes Lentz born 1671. He married Walburga Alba, 12 Nov 1690 in Rauschenbach. My main line is Mathes Albl married to Apolonia Lentz, married 25 Nov 1674, I believe, in Paslas. They are my 6th great grandparents. I have an Eva Rosina Lentz, but she was born in 8 Mar 1737, not like your Eva Rosina born in 1757. She is my 3rd great grand aunt, married to Joannes Josephus Utschick (Utschig); her parents are Balthasar Lentz and Barbara Anna Fischbach--she born in Podhornmuhle. My main line on my father's side are the Utschig family from Marienbad and Einsiedl. They immigrated to the U.S. in 1853 to New York. Also, the names of Schicker, Löw, Zeidler, Pichl, Clement, Diety, Saitz, Albl Wahra, Pimpl and several others. If any of these names fit in with your family, I'd love to hear from you. I have some info on the Lentz/Lenz, Fischbach, and related families which I'm happy to share if you need any. I've been using actapublic to do research which has been a wonderful tool. (I'd been to Pilsen to the Archives in 1993 and 1999 to do research before. So glad I can stay home and still look in the Church books.)
