Stihler - City Archive of Schwaebisch Hall Daniel.Stihler@schwaebischhall.de - 10-Mar-2000 Carl Kirschner, + May 5th, 1887, at the local hospital (poor house) his wife, Maria Anna Kirschner, born Maier, + Dec. 26th, 1886 their Children: Franz Michael Barbara, married to Anton Hirsch, Steinbach Melchior, in London Katharine, married to Friedrich Joseph Sofia, married to Friedrich Braun at Freudenstadt (Wuerttemberg) Maria, married to Leonhard Gariari, + before Dec. 1886 When in Schwäbisch Hall I enquired if there was any reason locally why Melchior may have emigrated to England? I was told that at that time period (1850s-1900) the area of Steinbach was very poor with most men out of work. The local main employment was from the Comberg, and the occupants of Steinbach was effectively their workforce. Most were therefor recieving relief from the parish. As a result of this the Parish were sponsoring individuals to emigrate out of Germany.
