Anyone doing any research on the Brentzel line for the period 1600-1700. I've traced back to Petrus Valentine Brentzel of Niederotterbach (Kapsweyer/Steinfeld area) who married Marie Magdalena ??? and had at least three children: Carolus b. 1703 (maybe Joannis Carolus), Joannis Friederich b. 1712, and Joannis Josephus b 1728. Seems unlikely they would only have three children over a fifteen year period! I've run out of LDS microfilm and would appreciate any direction on how to proceed with my research. Thanks John
