Question

Can I have a good pair of eyes on Forster-1187 as the parent of Susanna Forster?  He is Lutheran, apparently, but the family she married into (Goebel) is Catholic.  I know it could happen, but given Europe's stormy religious history overall I think I have the wrong papa here.  I am having a devil of a time tracking down her family, assuming she was not Lutheran, but Catholic.  I've got my map of Germany up, and it helps tremendously with the common sense end of things, but there were Forsters all over the place.

Thanks

Answer 1

Do you have any more info on Susannah

She would have had to be born no earlier than 1772, as her last child was born in 1815 in Hefersweiler or Nussbach as that was where they lived.  If I do indeed have the right person. The marriage records have her marrying Johann Peter Goebel in 1797.  There are some German sites but as good as I am linguistically, German is a challenge of sorts and I am just learning what to look for.

Answer 2

There were marriages where each person was a different religion.But the

family of the man would disown him,he would never inherit anything.
