Anna Christina and Johann Hennrich Reck

Johann Hennrich Reck, the son of Anna Maria Seltzer and Johann Jacob Reck, was born in Freinsheim 04 Jun 1743 and christened 09 Jun 1743. (Hennrich is the spelling of his name used most often in his children's birth records.) I can't find a marriage record for him, but his wife's first name was Anna Christina.

Anna Christina and Johann Hennrich had eleven children:

The younger children would likely have been married and had their own children during the period of revolutionary French rule. There are no Protestant marriage records for Freinsheim between July 1802 and December 1815, and no Protestant christening records between October 1798 and December 1815. I found it almost impossible to make connections between the Recks resident in Freinsheim before 1799 and those resident after 1815.
