The 1816 census also said they came after a stay in Torschau, Hungary; another source said that the place was Weyer, Hungary.

Said by the Paulskaya FSL to be homeUC to a Grass family. There are at least 33 Breitenbachs in the Germanies.

Bremen/Breschen(?)GS: mentioned in the Kratzke FSL in connection with Stadt and the Rubke family. Bremen, Lower Saxony is 60 miles SW of Hamburg. The Imperial City of Bremen was an independent country from 1646 to 1806 and controlled lands slightly less extensive than the current city of Bremen. Prior to 1719 there had also been a Bremen Duchy which held most of the lands N of Bremen city to the North Sea and E to Hamburg city but in 1719 it was subsumed into Kurbraunschweig, the Hannover Electorate.

BrensbachGL bei Dieburg, [Brensbach Condominium]: 9 miles SSE of Dieburg town and said by Stumpp to be homeUC to the Zirkoebel man who went to Jagodnaja Poljana (Mai&Marquardt#704). See Breuschbach. Brensbach CondominiumGS: this tiny state, seated in the town of the same name on the E bank of the Gersprenz River 12 miles SE of Darmstadt city centre and 9 miles NW of Erbach town, appears on old maps to have been a joint enterprise of Hessen-Darmstadt Landgraviate and Erbach County and a connecting link between those two countries. Birthplace of the Daab woman who married Muntermann and settled in Shcherbakovka (Gieg1). BrenschbachGL: said by the Buedingen ML to be homeUC to a Bleitz woman who in 1766 married a Hartmann man; by 1767 this couple had arrived in Walter; Stumpp says this was Brensbach near Dieburg (Mai&Marquardt#698). Today this is spelled Brensbach, Hessen, same place as the previous two entires. BrentaFN: no place of origin is given for this young widow who is living alone in the Pfeiffer FSL. BrenzFN: see by the Norka FSL to be fromUC Isenburg (no locality mentioned). In 1792 and 1798 spelled Prinz (Mai1798:Mv1974, Nr23, 30, Pb14, Dt2). BrenzFN: also see Brehm.

The GCRA found the Bruechler family associated with it in 1797. BressemerFN, see Pressmer. Bressler{Michael}FN: listed in the 1816 Kassel census (#13), in the 1858 Kassel census (#127, 128, 129), and in (KS:234) with no origin. Using FHL#247,646, the GCRA proved origin in Niederhochstadt, Landau [Amt], Pfalz, and in nearby Weingarten; in Kassel the name was most often spelled Pressler. The GCRA found that the Presslers listed in KS:396 as going to Kassel did not go there; see their book for more. BreternitzGL, [Electoral] Sachsen: is some 2.5 miles SE of Saalfeld, and said by the Lauwe FSL to be homeUC to a Schitzel family.

BruehlFN: said by the Pfeiffer FSL to be fromUC Freiburg. Later may have been spelled Bruhl. Bruehl, Kurpfalz: is a town 12 km NE of the Speyer city. There is evidence in the Schuck FSL that in 1765/66 the Speyer Bishopric issued a passport to Russia for to be homeUC to a Wuertz family fromUC Bruehl. They are listed in the FSL as being from Speyer, Bruehl. From 1405-1709 Bruehl had been part of a Condomium jointly run by Kurpfalz and the Speyer Bishopric. In 1709 the Bishop signed a treaty turning the area entirely over to Kurpfalz. However, in this case it seems that he issued a passport for Russia for a member family of his church even though, by treaty, he had no legal right to do so. BruehlGL, Mannheim [Amt], Baden [Margraviate]: mistakenly said by both the 1858 Neudorf census (#235) and KS:477 to have been homeUC to the Weber{Heinrich} family.

This man apparently was not in Balzer and must be the following entry. BuchnerFN: said by the Dehler FSL to be fromUC Camberg, [Kur-]Trier. Spelled Buechner in 1798 when his wife’s maiden name was given as Langebach?. (Mai1798:Dl11, 20).

BuedingenGL/GS: might refer to the town some 22 miles NE of Frankfurt-am-Main, however the town was the seat of Isenburg-Buedingen County which also was often refered to simply as Buedingen. In the 1760’s the town was a gathering point for emigrants to Russia and many of them married in the church there prior to emigration. Peter Zinnkann reporting in writing from the Buedingen Archives in 2005 told Alan Cropper of a Koehler man whose name and age matched that of the immigrant to Balzer had been born in Buedingen, [Isenburg-Buedingen County] on 12.04.1733 to parents who had come there from the village of Calbach, [Isenburg-Buedingen County].

I cannot find this family in the 1798 Volga censuses. Busecker Tal, [Hessen-]Darmstadt [Landgraviate]: was a geographical area mostly just NE of Giessen city. It had been an independent Ganerbschaft, but after 400 years of legal dispute it was in 1726 awarded fully to the Landgrave of Hessen-Darmstadt. It included the localities of Albach, Altenbuseck, Bersrod, Beuren, Burkhardsfelden, Oppenrod, Reiskirchen, Roedgen, as well as Grossenbuseck which kept most of the church records for the area. The Urbach FSL said (no locality was mentioned) this was homeUC to frau Enike and to the Goebel, Mengel and Wagner{Philipp} families. Busecker TalGL, Wuerzburg: an unidentified place said by the Goebel FSL to be homeUC to a Veit, and possibly an Unkelbach family. Wuerzburg here probably is a mistake; this probably is the same place as the previous entry. BusekFN: see Busick.

Busick/BusiekFN: said by the Balzer FSL to be fromUC Kurpfalz (no locality mentioned). Linda Freehling reports that a researcher tells her the family comes from Biskirchen. But this should be double-checked because the immigrant he promotes is too young to be the one who arrived in Balzer; also Biskirchen was then in the Solms-Braunfels Principality, not in the Kurpfalz. The maiden name of frau Busick was given as Decker in 1798 (Mai1798:Bz31). Busick/BusekFN: listed by the Kukkus FSL under the maiden name (Klapper) of the widowed mother. For 1792 see Mai1798:Mv1447; for 1798 see Kk28, 38 and Sg6. Hans Busick of Goslar Germany and Joan Knizek, the research done primarily in the Braunfels Archive, proved the 1665 origin of this Busek family in Kroeffelbach, [Solms-Braunfels Principality] moving to Biskirchen, [Solms-]Braunfels [Principality] after 1716 where a son married a Klepper woman and where the Busick children who settled in Kukkus were born. This origin information was first given the GO Project by Linda Freeling. BusiekFN: see Busick. Buss{Elisabeth}FN: listed as the wife of Weisbrod and the evident widow of Zahn in the 1798 Straub census (Sr40) but I did not find her in any FSL.
