Hallo KarlHeinz,

Many of the Kern's in this region were Jewish. Perhaps she did not die in Russelsheim. My great grandmother Christina Kern died in Schwegenheim in 1942 only because my grandfather bought her a baptismal certificate. I found three of her siblings in NYC. I have a file of Jewish Kern's who could be related. I do not believe that either she or her siblings were born in Schwegenheim.

Best wishes
Kathy

Hallo, Kathy,
thank you very much for your message. Is it possible to get your file of Jewish Kern's? Perhaps you can send a "Private Nachricht" to me.
Best wishes

Hi Karl Heinz!

I have a feeling that this site will be available in English before I figure out how to "private nachricht."

http://www.a-h-b.de/AHB/Listen/Bischofsheim.htm (Lists of 1808 name changes, some occupation lists, and some census'.) I hope more people add their lists to this site.

My Kerns were born 1866 to 1879: Christina, Eva Marie, Edward Martin, and Jacob. Jacob may have been born in Gemersheim and Edward in Mechtersheim. There is no way to know where Christina was born because her records have been falsified.

Hallo, Kathy,
thank you very much for your interesting supplements; I will compare these with my documents.

Karl Heinz,

This is not my complete file and I centered my search a bit south of your town. I used the Stolpersteine project and the Alemania Judica websites. I found my NYC relatives by searching the Ellis Island records for Kerns who came from my region.

I said I wished more people would upload Name Change lists and occupation lists for their towns. Now I see that I've neglected to send mine. I have the lists for Schwegenheim.

I would very much appreciate it if you could help me to search for my name. Either I'm doing some wrong, or there are no Ruch's in this forum.

Vielen Danke. Kathy

Hallo, Kathy,
mein English ist leider nicht so gut, dass ich Ihnen ausführlich schreiben könnte; deshalb - um nicht missverstanden zu werden - die nächsten Zeilen in Deutsch.
Bei der Überprüfung Ihrer ausführlichen Daten stellte ich fest, dass es sowohl jüdische als auch christliche Kern-Familien gibt. Bei "meinen" Kern sind nur christliche Familienmitglieder, sodass ich Ihnen leider nicht weiterhelfen kann.
Liebe Grüße
Karl Heinz

Also, the purpose of the 1808 name change law was to give all Jews Christian names.
