Family · the lines
The family tree.
Mary's documented descent through the Couronne d'Or — and where every line comes from.
§ 01Mary's line
Marie Anne Zagelow
Patricia Ann Todd
Eldest at the top. The two founding couples of Marlenheim and Kirchheim meet in Jean Groh & Adèle Wohlfrom (married 1868); the line runs down through Marie Theresa Groh to Mary.
§ 02Where the lines come from
Alsace — the Groh line
Groh · Wohlfrom · Schmitt · Bernhard
Farming families of Marlenheim & Kirchheim, recorded back to the 1790s.
The Zagelow puzzle
Zagelow
Recorded “Alsace-Lorraine” but almost certainly Prussian / Pomeranian — needs verification.
Jerry — Maas / Fox (Saar)
Maas · Fox (Fuchs) · Schmitt
The paternal pocket around Orscholz, Freudenburg and Trier — a Riesling corridor and the optional +2-day detour.
Jerry — the Wohlust line
Wohlust · Becker
Leißling → Emmental, Bern → “a few went to Alsace” — the Bernese-Anabaptist tail; the name itself is still to verify.
Jerry — Fiedler (Saxony)
Fiedler · Graebner
Reichenbach im Vogtland, Saxony; Paul Fiedler emigrated in 1881. A Tier-2 eastern detour.
Jerry — Ulcek (Moravia)
Ulčík · Pavelčík
The paternal core from Vlčnov, Moravia — off this trip, noted for completeness.
