GEORG KAUFFMANN
THE STORY AS I KNOW IT.
Georg Kauffmann was born about 1655 in Bissingen
an
der Tech, Wurttenberg Germany. |from
Family
History
Library
Film 1055843, 1612-1774 Bissingen an der Teck,
Wuerttenberg Lutheran
records we know father was
Michael Kauffmann. His mother
may have been Veronica,
maiden name unknown, but
first married to a Minder.
The families had lived in this small town for hundreds of years. In the area around Stuttgart, there are 3 towns that could fit the name "Bissingen". They are Bissingen, Bisingen, and Bissingen an der Teck. After a careful study of the 1930's document we believe it is the Bissingen an der Teck. This village is south east of Stuttgart
The LDS library
has a
microfilm
of the Lutheran
church in Bissingen.
All the information here comes from this document. Reading
the old
German scrip is a challenge. We can scan the piece so you
can attempt
to see it also. Just click under Contact Us with the
request. One
wonderful form has the family record. It includes the
birth and death
date of the bride and groom, their parents, and all their
children with
birth , confirmation and death. There is also a Compliation of Church
Records -Western
European It is searchable by name and it is all
printed out for
you. My copies of the original church records
concurs with the
CD. It is put out by LDS.
His marriage record noted above shows that on Nov. 9,
1669, Georg Kaufmann
married Anna Maria Batzlen. That
record gave his father's name, Michael
and her father's name as Michael
Batzlen.
Their children were recorded on that same film as:
1. Caspar
Kauffmann, born
1680, he wed Margaretha
Mackhen.
2. Hans Jacob
Kauffmann,
born 1682
3. Catharina Kauffmann,
born
1684
4. Anna Maria
Kauffmann,
born 1685
5. Barbara
Kauffmann,
born
1686
6. Anna Barbara
Kauffmann,
born
1688 (I wonder if Barbara born 1686 had died?)
7. Margaretha
Kauffmann,
born 1688 must be Anna Barbara's twin
8. Hanss Georg
Kauffmann,
born
1691
That is a lot of babies in a very short time!
No death records are included
in the Kauffmann material
It is not known when either Georg
Kauffmann or his wife Anna
Maria
died.
