Auch wenn ich dir bei deiner Suche nicht helfen kann. Für ein freundliches "Welkom hier by ons!" reicht es allemal.

Vriendelike groete na Suid-Africa. My vrou se oom woon ook in Kaapstad.

Welcome! Maybe you have already tried searching the Internet? I came across the following:

https://www.helga-matzke.de/objekte/paar-fruehe-silber-augsburger-leuchter

One of your ancestors' works?

http://süddeutsche-patrizier.de/tng/...tree=patrizier

And this place maybe? https://silberschmiede.de/ueber-uns/

Hallo Scherfer,

Thank you for the websites. The information on Sudpatrizier was given to me in 2006 by Hanno Trurnit. Yes I have seen some of their work and others still in Museums and some up for auction.
My direct Lotter ancestors have been traced back to 1499 in Augsburg and were Burgers, Kaufleute, Gold und Silbershmiede and very part of the Lutheran church.

My website is lotter.co.za

However now I want to find the rest of the ancestors, the Mullers, Becks, Brenners, Geiger and Tradl. FamilySearch.org makes it easy but seems St. Anna-Kirche is not on line but I have received a link now to view the records. I went to Augsburg in 2017 but the archives were not open.

Anyways this is a great journey and I am finding more and more interesting stories, old documents and pictures.

Thanks
Ivan

Hi Ivan

As far as I know FamilySearch does not have or show the original church books of Augsburg, so not all information that the church records contain can be found on FamilySearch.

You can look at the original church books of the catholic churches of Augsburg here:

Gruss
