I'm not sure what question this was in response to, but my answer would be: Kassel is a small town in Hessen-Darmstadt. Hessen-Nassau didn't exist in 1838, the period being discussed and doesn't exist to-day. Therefore, it proves difficult for someone to locate it easily. I was offering Hessen-Kassel as an alternative to Hasenkassel. I don't believe a town or city called Kassel would be mistakingly written as Hasenkassel. If the original author of the word was referring to a town, it would more likely be written as Kasselhasen. I imagine there are probably a few more Kassel (Cassel) names in Germany so narrowing it to one is a bit misleading without more data. And the two we've mentioned so far are not very close together. For what it's worth.

Hi JK A you pointed out there is one more Kassel in Germany, It was in Kreis Gelnhausen ( 1901, 92 residents ) today it is in Kreis Main-Kinzig. As for Hasen which is a small Jack rabbit not a rabbit In today's Germany there are Hasenbüren Hasenfeld Hasenkrug Hasenmoor Hasenthal Hasenweiler Hasenwinkel The Gemeinde and Ortslexikon of 1901 shows the following Hasen.. omitted anything which was east of the Oder Neiße Rivers. Hackensack Hasenbüchel Hasenbüren Hasenbusch Hastened Hasenfleth Horsehide Hasenkamp Hasenklev Hasenkrug Hasenmahd Hasenmoor Masonries Hasenthal Hasenvenn Hasenwald Hasenweiler Hasenwinkel ( 2 ) Many of the Hasen.. of 1901 are listed as Vororte and subsequently no show on toady's maps and would not have a name today since they are often only names known to local people and show no inhabitants in 1901. Little has changed in the 1901 Census versus the 1998 CD I have Uwe-Karsten Krickhahn ----- Original Message ----- From: "JK" <jkrug@rogers.com> To: <IOWA-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 02, 2004 5:07 PM Subject: Re: [IOWA] Krug > I'm not sure what question this was in response to, but my answer would be: > Kassel is a small town in Hessen-Darmstadt. > > Hessen-Nassau didn't exist in 1838, the period being discussed and > doesn't exist to-day.
