My interest is the genealogy in general and especially the research of my ancestors. If you have got some information on the name Spengler or if you are a Spengler, let me know and write me a mail. Furthermore I am interested in citizens from Külsheim, who left for America or other countries. As an example of my work, I´d like to present the data of the eldest Spengler I found living in Külsheim with written evidence:

Citizen- and Taxrecord Külsheim 1425-1495 (found in Luzern, Switzerland): "1479: Hans Spengler ist burger worden dedit X turn, Herbstin eidem" (= payed 10 thurnes to become a citizen as the son-in-law of Mrs. Herbst) Turktaxrecord in the statearchive in Würzburg, warfile 1/28, dating 1542: "Hans Spengler Vermögen 30 Gulden, 0.5 % Steuer" (= his property is 30 Gulden, he had to pay 0,5 % tax)

Another example of my work is the compilation of emigration lists emigration list from my hometown Külsheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany emigration list from Hundheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany emigration list from Königheim, Baden-Württemberg, Germany There is more of my work online (in German language) Family pictures and historical fotos of Külsheim World War I, MIA and KIA from Külsheim, 1914-1918 World War II, MIA and KIA from Külsheim, 1939-1945 Invasion of the American Army into the Badische Frankenland (Franconia), 1945 Blog: My Külsheim in the Badischen Frankenland
