Thank you for the translation. Question when I looked on MeyersGaz.org it lists Kreuzburg in 3 locations. How do I know which one she is from?

All the Kreuzburgs in Meyers are rather far away from Herrenbreitungen and therefore seem unlikely. There is, however, a "Creuzburg" only about 50 km to the north which MAY be the right place.

Thank you for the clarification. That is what I thought when I looked at the Kreuzburg that is was quite a distance. The Creuzburg seems more logical. Thank you for all your wonderful help. You have been a blessing in my life as I work through my family history. God bless you, Paula Rail
