    https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag I can read this but somehow it is more comforting and always more accurate when you look at a document than when I make assumptions.

    In this case does "im Feld" mean "in the box" (casket) or actually in a field or in this "place" (Ottenbach)? Thode has all these meanings. Kent

    In this case it specifies a location - and "im Feld" is mentioned for quite a few Sidlers, so they seem to have lived there possibly for generations. Unfortunately it is very common all over (German speaking) Switzerland … but I haven't fouind one in/near Ottenbach. Names of former hamlets are often used instead of street names in Switzerland - and (just an example!) there is an "Im Feld" in Affoltern.

    https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Now I think about I think you mentioned this before. Thanks for the clarification. Kent
