<<In the baptismal record of Anna Magdalena WALCK, daughter of Peter WALCK nd his wife Anna Magdalena, 8 January 1703 in Flinsbach, the godmother is iven as "Anna Magdalena Jungfrau Matthäus Reiner Von Rappenheim.">> Tried to translate this...didn't seem to translate well. Anna Magdalena Virgin By Matthew Reiner centimes home Is Anna Magdalena the wife of Matthaus Reiner or the unmarried daughter? The translation would seem to indicate his unmarried daughter. I have Matthaus' wife as Anna Barbara(?) and she may also have been the wife of my ancestor Fredrich Dietrich Reiner. Unknown relationship between Fredrich and Mattaus Reiner. Thanks, Dan Cook Germanna Reiner descendant
I am wondering about the record of Johann Christian Wilheit's baptism in Schwaigern that Al Welch photographed on the Germanna Tour 2009. I have tried to see if I could make out the spelling, but it seems to be a too grainy to be certain. It does seem to me that it is Wilheit. However, I would like Al's opinion on this. The spelling in Schwaigern has always been reported as Willert and is reported that way on the settler's list. I am not a Wilheit descendent; however, have interest in this family as Tobias Wilheit interacted with my Martin Walck. Al if you see this, I hope you can inform us. Cary Anderson
