https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag You have been busy!! What is your thinking on why Thomas was born in Ottenbach and yet came from Wolsen? I know they aren't too far apart. I assume the Wolsen Grob's could be visiting or have other family in Ottenbach. Your thoughts?

I always look forward to your summaries on the Forum! Many thanks!!! KG

Thomas was not born in Ottenbach - but Wolsen (see his marriage and burial notes).

Wolsen is part of Obfelden - and until 1848 Obfelden belonged to the Ottenbach parish - so Thomas was just baptised in Ottenbach.

WSeelentag That clears things up. FS only has records for Obfelden in the 1800s. KG
