Casper vs Ignatz Ableidinger lines
Am wondering if anyone has figured out the relationship between the Casper and Hannah Bauer Ableidinger line and the Ignatz and Julia Poeschal Ableidinger line.
I am now aware that the surname is quite popular in Austria, however feel there should be a connection of the two - - of which I can't find.
These two families both came from Lang Schwarza Austria and immigrated to the Pepin/Dunn county area of Wisconsin; first Ignatz in 1881 and then a year later for Casper.Casper and family stayed with them for awhile and descendants remember them enjoying each other's company for some time, but then apparently a disagreement caused them to have nothing to do with each other.
None of the family genealogists feels there is a relation, however, the photo likeness is very similar and the given names of the children are almost the same.
Got any clues?
