Hello list serve members,
I have been helped so much in the past by people on here and I'm asking for
help again.
1. Please tell me - Is Asbach (under Cassel), Herschfeld in Hannover? If not
does anyone know which province it was in? Looking for Conrad Adam Justus
Gluth born there 20 April 1858, according to oral history.
2. Was Worms, GR in Hannover? If not do you know which province it was in?
Looking for Jacob Walber, born 9 Feb 1817, according to oral history.
3. Does anyone know if Bavaria has a list serve like Hannover? I'm looking
for Johann Adam Steinhauser from Ehingen, Bavaria born about 1824.
Thank you so very much. I enjoy all of your requests and the answers.

There are so many towns named Asbach, I can't be sure which one you
are referring. Mapquest lists 10--none of which is in Hannover. My
autoatlas lists 16 towns with the name of Asbach. There is one Herschfeld
in Bavaria--no other listed in my autoatlas. What does "under Cassel" mean?
I also would like to find a mailing list for Bavaria like the Hannover
list. There is one under genealogy.net but it is entirely in German. Maybe
there's something else you could use: http://www.bavariagen.com/mailing_bbs.html
There is a Asbach by Bad Hersfeld and it is in Hessen and it is under Cassel
(Kassel). The K and the C have been used to spell at different times during
its history.

Happy hunting, Barbara
Hello,
here some details about Asbach:
there are really lots of Asbachs in Germany, but that one you are looking for is presumably Asbach near HERSFELD
(Herschfeld is wrong). The city is called Bad Hersfeld (www.bad-hersfeld.de) und this place is southeast of Kassel.
It belongs to Hessen (and always did, as far as I know). It was never part of the Kingdom of Hannover.
Worms also never belonged to Hannover. But I don`t know, what GR means. Do you have any further descripion ?
Nowadays Worms belongs to Rheinland-Pfalz, not to Hessen!
Susanne,
The LDS list Worms as in Hessen. Maybe there were boundaries that
changed? I don't see any other Worms. Sorry if I mislead anyone. You
should know -- it's your country!
