Children of Johann and Christina Huber

Lind Street

Continuing from the prior post about Lawrence Huber’s ancestry, once I unraveled the two couples named Johann and Christina, I was able to identify the children of the correct couple. Recall, Lawrence’s ancestor, his great grandfather, was Laurenz Huber born in 1715.[1]

His parents, Johann and Christina, married 19 May 1696.[2]

Their children, including Laurenz, were:

  • Anna Maria, baptized June 1697[3]
  • Anthony, baptized 9 January 1699[4]
  • Anna Margaretha, baptized 20 May 1700[5]
  • Joseph, baptized 27 December 1701[6]
  • Barbara, baptized 25 September 1705[7]
  • Andreas, baptized September 1707[8]
  • Adam, baptized 2 December 1708 [twin]
  • Christian, baptized 2 December 1708 [twin][9]
  • Susanna, baptized 2 November 1710[10]
  • Matthew, baptized November 1713[11]
  • Laurenz, baptized 21 February 1715[12]
  • Johann Caspar, baptized 12 January 1717[13]

Phew! That’s a lot of children. There are times that an exact date for the baptism is not known. That is due to tight binding on the baptismal register, which cuts off the date.

My next challenge will be finding Johann Huber’s baptism. This will only be possible if the birth locations or other subtle clues are given in the records. Stay tuned!
