Thank you, Ulrich! It is so interesting that these men were "forest workers." I am also happy to add another "pin" (Vorhof) on my Württemberg map! This family is fun to study. Dorothea was my seventh great grandmother. This was her first marriage and I descend from her second husband. Best! Cynthia McClanahan Cruz
