Larry, My inquiring was because I was wondering about this original message where 'bone' wrote asking: Posted by: bone Date: March 15, 2000 at 18:00:27 of 38 I am looking for information about George Philliph Dodderer married to Veronica Stabbach. I had never heard of Veronica's last name being Stabbach. So... I got info from the same book you did. *The Dodders came from an area in Germany called the Kraichgau. It is referred to in German as a "Ritterkanton," a knights' canton. In 1521 Gemmingens Lord, Baron Wolf v. Gemmingem founded a "Lateinschule," or Latin school. It continued for over a century, until 1635. The Barons v. Gemmingen figured prominently in the Reformation. As Reichsritter, or knights for the realm, they used their influence to foster the Reformation and to shield and protect the reformers. The three brothers v. Gemmingen, Dietrich, Phillip, and Wolf, had dividied the possession of their father Pleikard among themselves at the time of his death, in 1515. They introduced the Reformation into the Kraichgau, along with Erhart Schnopf, a native of Heilbronn in 1521/22. Their preacher, Bernhard Griebler, brought the new doctrine to Gemmingen. Wolf and Dietrich witnessed Martin Luther's famous courageous stand before the diet of Worms, April 18, 1521. They have records in the church in Gemmingen. The combined Lutheran and Reformed parish records of the church in Stebbach date back to 1675 and forward to 1962. They are available at the FHL. * Information from The Heritage Quest #48, page 25. ...and my line goes through Bernard Dodderer and Gertrude to Jacob Dodderer and Helen Lydia Dildine Collins to Henry Dodder and Alice Wintermute etc. If you have ged or FTW 7.0, I would love to get your data base on the direct lineage. I would be glad to send you mine. Here is my website: http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/m/c/c/Janice-L-Mccarty/index.html Thanks for replying. Janice
