<p>My immigrant ancestor was Salomon Wolf, a butcher, who left Weil der Stadt, Germany in 1849 and came to NYC. According to the church records, Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic church in Wel der Stadt, his wife's first name was Agnes (last name is uncertain, either Glirgin or Flieg), and she died in 1847. Salomon came to the US with four of his six living children, David b-1825, Lucas b-1827, Johann Nepomuk b-1831 and Catherine b-1838. His oldest, Eva Anna b-1818 must have stayed in Germany and…</p>

<p>Hello,</p>
<p>I am new to this site and I hope to learn from all of you how to make better searches. My family comes from the Starkenburg, Hesse-Darmstadt area. The family name is Schwoebel. The German spelling is Schwobel with a umlaut over the o.</p>
<p>His first name is Peter and his wife was Eva Katherina Bock. They are my great - great grandfather and great - great grandmother. I was wondering if anyone has any information on either Schwoebel or Bock. I have Eva's death certificate with her parents name and her birthday but I cannot find any information on either Ancestry or LDS site. Several months ago I contacted the Affolterbach website,(where my grandfather was born) and asked for help to find any documents to help my search and they didn't bother to answer me. Does anyone have any suggestions?</p>
<p>I don't know where Eva was born, she only listed Germany as birthplace. There was a woman with her exact name but the birthdate doesn't fit nor does the names of the parents on the death certificate.</p>
