Margaretha Wiegand and Daniel Hohl
On 10 Aug 1837 Daniel Hohl married Margaretha Wiegand in Freinsheim. I don't have birth records for either the bride or the groom. Daniel was most likely the son or possibly the grandson of Anna Christina Willi and Johannes Reichard Hohl. The absence of a birth record suggests that he was born 1798-1815. If Anna Christina Willi was his mother, he was mostly likely born 1789-1806. I haven't been able to find out anything certain about Margaretha's parents.
I'm fairly sure that Margaretha and Daniel had seven children, of whom two died young:
Daniel died and was buried in Freinsheim on 27 Apr 1848. I don't have any further information on Margaretha.
All of the children christened in Freinsheim under the name Hohl between 1849 and 1875 (when the records end) were born to Johannes Hohl and Elisabetha Webel, to Peter Hohl and Elisabetha Mohr or to Elisabetha Hohl with no father listed. Margaretha and Daniel's daughter Elisabetha was the only Elisabetha Hohl I know of in Freinsheim who would have been a suitable age. Here are her three children:
I have no further information on Elisabetha or her children.
