Anna Margaretha Sohn and Johann Jakob Engel

Johann Jakob Engel was christened in Freinsheim 11 Sep 1718, the son of Susanna and Johann Philip Engel. On 12 Nov 1748 he married Anna Margaretha Sohn, christened in Freinsheim 17 Mar 1709. She was the daughter of Anna Margaretha and Christoph Sohn.

Johann Jakob and Anna Margaretha had only one child, Christoph Daniel Engel, born 30 Dec 1750 and christened 01 Jan 1751. He married Maria Katherina Butz on 21 Jan 1772.

Johann Jakob was buried in Freinsheim 22 Sep 1790. I have no further information on Anna Margaretha Sohn.

Note: Most of the information I have on the Werner, Engel and Sohn families in Freinsheim from the late 17th to the mid 19th centuries came to me in 2004 courtesy of Siegfried Barth, archivist with the Verbandsgemeinde Freinsheim (Freinsheim Community Association). Where possible I've supplemented it with church records available at FamilySearch.org. Many thanks to Herr Barth and also to my late granduncle Robert Werner, who made the first contact and then recruited my help because he and Herr Barth had no languages in common.
