Surnames/tags: Broyles Briles
The first document follows up on the groundbreaking research that uncovered the German ancestral home of the Broyles/Briles family. It includes copies of the church birth, marriage, and death records of the family of Johannes Breyhel, with translations and explanations. Note: the author misinterpreted the baptismal record of son Hans Jacob. He did not have a twin brother Conrad.
The second document contains abstracts of all births, marriages, and deaths pertaining to the Breyhel and Ruop families, from the villages of Dusslingen and Oetisheim, from the early 1600's to 1730.
Today both towns are in Baden-Württemberg, Germany, but at the time of interest they were in the Duchy of Württemberg which was part of the Holy Roman Empire.
Oetisheim records come from LDS film #1184989. Dusslingen records come from LDS film #1457448. LDS members may view these at a Family History Center. The records are also available via the web at archion.de, the German archives site. You need to create an account and purchase a one month access pass (about $25 as of 2018).
