 THE STORY AS I KNOW IT.

Ludwig Walz was born June 29, 1688 in Bissingen an der Tech, Wurttenberg Germany. His parents were Jacob Waltz and Anna Barbara Uotz. 

The families had lived in this small town for hundreds of years. In the area around Stuttgart, there are 3 towns that could fit the name "Bissingen". They are Bissingen, Bisingen, and Bissingen an der Teck. After a careful study of the 1930's document weknow it to be Bissingen an der Teck. This village is south east of Stuttgart

The LDS library has a microfilm of the Lutheran church in Bissingen. All the information here comes from this document. Reading the old German scrip is a challenge. We can scan the piece so you can attempt to see it also. Just click under Contact Us with the request.  One wonderful form has the family record. It includes the birth and death date of the bride and groom, their parents, and all their children with birth , confirmation and death.  There is also a Compliation of Church Records -Western European It is searchable by name and it is all printed out for you.  My copies of the original church records concurs with the CD.  It is put out by LDS.

There is a record of the birth of Anna Catharina Walz to Ludwiz Walz and Susanna in the birth records.  However, I have not been able to find a marriage or family record. Susanna's maiden name is unknown.  It is possible that they never married.

If you know the answer please CONTACT US

1.  What was Susanna's maiden name?
2.  Were there other children?
3.  When did they die?
