The spelling of the place names in Switzerland seems to be somewhat fluid. Even in this record the home location of the bride is written Lenkenwil, Lenkweilen or Lenkenweilen. I can't find any of these names, but there is a Lenggenwil (https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenggenwil) about 11 km east of Ermatingen. Maybe it is that one? The parish of Lenggenwil was the only one of region that remained catholic after the reformation (https://www.semf.ch/lenggenwil-32.html).

I know that Josephus Zwick was born in Fruthweilen, near Ermatingen, Switzerland, but have not been able to locate the town or parish of Lenweilern. I have used Jewish Gen Townfinder. Do you have any other ideas of how to locate Lenweilen?

This is great information. I agree that Lengenwil is probably the town of birth. Thank you for your help. I really do appreciate it!
