THE STORY AS I KNOW IT.
Peter Holpp was born about 1550 probably in Bissingen
an
der Tech, Wurttenberg Germany. His father was
Hanss Holp.
This is from the chruch marriage records recorded in Bissingen an der Teck,
Donaukreis,
Wuerttemberg Collection: Lutherisch, and FHS film
1055840.
The LDS library has a microfilm of the church
records in
Bissingen, FHL Film
1055840.
It dates back to 1580. The German scrip is very hard to
read and of
course it is in German. We can scan the piece so you can
attempt to see
it also. Just click under Contact Us with the request. I
now have a
printout from the LDS
set on CD of
Western European Church Records that is easy to
read. The
data in this story comes from that set.
Peter Holp
married Anna Shaedler on Feb. 1, 1581 in
Bissingen an der Tech. The marriage records will
state the
fathers of the bride and groom, unless he or she was
married
before. This record did not include the father of
the
bride. I don't know if Shaedler would have been her
maiden name,
or the surname of her first husband.
Peter and Anna Holp had the following
children listed in the church record of Bissingen an der Teck:
1. Elizabeta Holp christened 1582
2. Georgius Holp christened 1588
3. Anna Holp
christened
1591
Six years is a large gap. It
implies a child died sometime between 1582 and 1588.
