The past branches
Some branches of our family have merged into other, younger branches. Others are also extinct. For some, the course of the story is still a mystery.
Former branches of the family (dead and transferred to newer ones)
To explain the terms:
- Parent line = Earliest occurrences of our family, common roots from the Middle Ages
- line = Particularly early known branches of the trunk lines, even before the branches
- Branch = Branches existing before the time of the church records (around 1600)
- branch = Branches of the branches to be assigned using church records (approx. Between 1600 and 1800)
- Second branch = Branches from the branches (approx. Between 1800 and 1900)
- House = Modern branches (after 1900)
