| Documentation: From the US census & from a man that i met that was going to Bad Bertrich,Germany which is the town near Kennfus,Germany, that holds all the records. The records were held under Katholish, meaning "Catholic" records. Bad Bertrich,Germany was in Rheinland, meaning "Reigon" & Preussen/Purssen, meaning "Germany". Rheinland was the state of the country which was called Prussia at the time of Caspar & Gertrud & possibly their parents. Not sure from what area their parents came from. Bad Bertrich,Germany is located in a region feeding down into the Mosel River Valley. It is only abt. 2 1/2 blocks wide, due to the narrow and steep canyon walls. Bad Bertrich,Germany is famous for their Natural Mineral Salt Springs Bath. They have Health Spas everywhere there. The work "Bad" in German means "Bath". Some 5mi. below Bad Bertrich,Germany, there is the Mosel pronounced "Moselle" in French. The city of Koblenz pronounced "Coblence" is on the Rhein River pronounced "Rhine". |
