Notes
Note for: Hans "der Alter" Huss, 20 NOV 1614 -
From his marriage record we know that Hans' father was Michael Huss but we
can't be sure who his mother is. The birth register shows four Hans born
to a
Michael is the correct time frame with mothers named Apolonia, Sabina and
Otilia (the entry with Otilia seems to be the same child registered twice
two
months apart (pgs 157-58). Since our Hans "der Alter" has a daughter
named
Otilia but none named Apolonia or Sabina I suspect that Otilia was his
mother.
Notes
Note for: Hans Manshardt, -
From the early census records in the back of the church book it appears
that
Hans Manshardt is the likely father of Georg, Agnes Haus' husband.
