Laubscher Ancestors

 

The following is a list of the ancestors of immigrants Catherine, Carl/Charles, Ludwig/Lewis & Georg/George Laubscher.

As it turns out, the family is not German, but rather Swiss-German - with the Laubscher, Streit & Rebhorn families migrating from Swizerland to Baden.

 

1.  Catharina/Katharina "Catharine" Laubscher^1–6 was born on 16 Oct 1808 in Weingarten, Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany.^1,5,7 She was baptized on 17 Oct 1808 in Weingarten, Karlsruhe, Baden, Germany.⁷ She died about 1882 at the age of 74 in Shullsburg, Lafayette Co., Wisconsin.³ One of the difficulties in researching Catherine has been determining her  maiden name. Son William's death registration did give her maiden name, but the recorder's handwriting was extremely poor. Lansher, Lancher, Laubacher and Laubscher were among the best guesses for the name. Catherine's marriage record showed that her maiden name was clearly Laubscher.
