an early
transcription of the

in
Buedingen (Mai&Marquardt#696,

This family
appears in the
Walter FSL (#62)
as

[County].
Jean Roth
of
the
Walter Research
Group has
confirmed in local
parish records that
this
Boegel family
came from
Gelnhaar, Isenburg
(now
Hessen).
Their exit
papers are indexed
in
Auerbach,
Beckel entry, which indicate that {J.Heinrich}
was born in
Untermockstadt
and that his wife
{Anna} was born in
Laisa.
This
couple and their

When they are
recorded as a
Baecker family
in the

Ella Gieg and
Brent Mai used
the report of an 18th

pastor to prove this
man and his
Eidmueller wife
were both from
Wersau, Hessen
;
KS120 confused
Wersau near
Fraenkisch-Crumbach with

Becker{A.Margaretha}:
born a
Kleinshnis? she
was the widow of
some
Becker (maybe a
Johann?) in 1784 and
the wife of
Diehl{Jacob} (Mai1798:Mv1609).
Her husband
Becker must have
died sometime
1778-1797.
It seems
likely that she and
/or he were
Luzern first
settlers.
By 1798
Diehl{Jacob} had remarried (Zg3).
Becker{Elizaberth}:
this widow, nee
Block, was in
Luzern in 1798 (Mai1798:Lz23);
I could not find her
in any FSL, nor any
reference to having
been in any previous
colony, so she (and
her deceased
husband?)
may have been
among the
Luzern first settlers.

fromUC
Ronshausen,
Rothenburg
he married in
Buedingen on 7
May 1766
Moritz{Anna Eva}
(Mai&Marquardt#620,

Beidorf{Margaretha}:
said by the 1798
Luzern census to
have come from

a
Wittmann first
settler family,
however she was in
1798 the widow of
Flack{Heinrich}
and wife to
Maier{Johann[es]}.
Flack was,
according to the
Recruiter Beauregard
List in 1768 (Lk128)
married to a
previous wife and
was said by to have

Breitfurt to the
Volga; I believe he

says that he was

Beier/Becker{Johannes}: the 1798
Schulz census

both these family
names saying he came
to
Schulz from
Kind (Mai1798:Sz7), so he may well have been among the
Kind first

Beimbach, [Kur-]Bayern: an
unidentified place
said by the
Recruiter Beauregard
list to have been
homeUC to
the
Felber?{Matthias}

Hohenlohe lands,
not in
Kurbayern.

Belowesch
settlement, one of
the four or five
non-Volga colony
areas in 1765-67.
Their joint

most recently

Beltsch{Peter
Anton}:
married in
Rosslau on 6
April 1766
Winkler{Dorothea
E.} (Mai&Marquardt#903,
KS120-21).
I could not
find them in any
published FSL
BeltzFN: This family name is not mentioned in the Kutter FSL, yet they were there.
The 1776 and
1798
Kutter censuses
make clear that
Roehrich had
married a widow,
(Christina
Beltz) and that
the children
(Johannes and
Barbara) listed in
the
Kutter FSL in the Roehrich
household were in
fact
Beltz
step-children of
Roehrich, the
children of his wife
by her former
marriage.
Since no
marriage is found
for
Roehrich in the
Buedingen ML,
the odds are good
that his wife was
also from (or from
very near) the same
place in
Isenburg as
Roehrich. Dick Kraus
found Beltzs and
Peltzs in
Duedelsheim but not
this family.
Not found in

BelzigGL:
aome 24.5 miles NE
of
Zerbst city, and
said by the
Kano FSL to be

a
Paul{Andreas}
family.
Kuhlberg said
this was in the
Zerbst [Principality], but although
Paul may have
gotten his
travelling papers
through
Zerbst, Belzig itself seems always to have been part of
Kursachsen, not
part of Zerbst.
Bem/BoehmFN:
said by the
Leichtling FSL
to be fromUC
Hammelburg (no

amongst the
Benders.
BenderFN{J.Jost}:
said by the
Balzer FSL #41
to be
from
Duedelsheim,
Isenburg-Buedingen
[County].
Bonner using LDS
Film 1201789 proved
that he was baptised
in
Duedelsheim in 1740 and then married Doerr {A.Margaretha} there in 1766; Wagner1 p. 81 concurs giving date and parents.

Elsass, and
finally to
