| In dieser surname
Liste ist eigentlich alles vertreten, was im *alten* Württemberg
Rang und Namen hatte, bis zu den Karolingern, also bis zu Karl dem
Grossen (um 800), und zwar nicht nur auf einem Weg, sondern auf
Hunderten von verschiedenen Wegen. Verwandt bin ich auch mit den Poeten
Goethe, Schiller, Friedrich Hölderlin und Wilhelm Hauff sowie
vielen anderen Geistesgrössen aus dem badischen und
württembergischen Land. Die Renz und Stockmayer Familien waren
Regierungsbeamte und Pastorenfamlien von hohem sozialem Stand im
Herzogtum und später Königreich Württemberg.
Major families in this list of
surnames include the old nobility of Württemberg, their titles
featuring the Karolingers up through Karl the Great (ca. 800), to which
I am connected to in hundreds of different ways. My relations also
include the famous poets Goethe, Schiller, Friedrich Hölderlin,
Wilhelm Hauff, etc. as well as many other well known scholars. The Renz
and Stockmayer families were government officials and pastor families
of
high social status in the duchy and later Kingdom of
Württemberg.
Special thanks go to my
mother for keeping track of our family bible, and to my great
grandmother for having kept records in it. I would like to particularly
thank: Norbert and Karin Gastel, Gerhard Gastel, Prof. Genealogist
Klaus
Siefert, Christian Vieser, Kurt-Walter Friedrich, Ortsheimatpfleger
Heiko Völker, Mariam Cheshire, Harvey Lineback, Denis Graham,
Horst
Görlich, Dan Pomerleau, Dipl. Bibliothekar Guenter Todt, and
Klaus F. Augustiny for their valuable help and last but not least
Prof.Dr. Günther Schweizer and Professional Genealogist Leo van de
Pas who made my dreams come true.
