Louis Goetz - Looking in Ortssippenbuchen / Church Books (2017) Monday, May 8, 2017

Day Two/Tuesday
Continuing work on tips from last visit, I want to look at the ortssippenbuch -- village of Eichstetten.
Title: Ortsfamilienbuch Eichstetten : Eichstetten am Kaiserstuhl, 1644-1900

Call Number: 943 B4do ser. A v. 309

Due to the fact that more records have been indexed, may want to look in Ancestry Intl again.

Day Three/Wednesday
Spent part of the day looking for Goetz in Baden.

Day Four/Thursday
Went back to Trinity Church records, I re-located the marriage record for Heinrich Fred. Ludwig Goetz and Christiane Heizmann.

In very small print, it is noted that Heinrich's father is Wilhelm Goetz from Sachen-Gotha, and Christine's father is Jakob Heizmann from Wuerttemberg. (US film 954974)

Looked thru all the Germans to America (1861-1850) at Goetz and Gotz but did not find any reference that looked relevant.

After Visit 
Looked at notes again from 2016. Looks like we might know the brother and sister of Ludwig Goetz. Need to verify.

Also, in familysearch, someone has listed Barbara Schwartz, Steinmauern, Baden, as the mother of Ludwig Goetz. Would need to locate the church record to confirm. Film 1046271 would be a good one to look at.
