bullet  General Notes:

Carl married Gertraudt Alspach about 1785. Gertraudt was born in 1763. She died in Apr 1852.

On May 4, 1852, the goods of Gertraudt's estate were sold. Son Frederich bought a hefer, stove and pipes, needles and scarfs. Grandson Charles, bought bedding and linens. Another grandson, Gideon Nothstein, also bought linens, baskets, tubs, etc. Other relatives and friends bought cloth, books, iron kettles and pots, a two-hour clock, kitchen items and dishes, and a cow. Presumably, Gertraudt is buried with her husband, but there is no gravestone.
