Endingen am Kaiserstuhl
In the tree below, Endingen is the village in south-western Germany where our Kolmer ancestors originated. Its full name is lengthy. In 19th century letters, it was addressed as: Endingen-im-Breisgau, Grand Duchy of Baden. Today its correct reference is: Endingen-am-Kaiserstuhl, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.
We assembled this tree from Endingen church records, records at the Staatsarchive Freiburg (Germany) & Sonoma County Recorder’s Office (Santa Rosa, California), records published on the LDS (Mormon) website, & from tombstones at cemeteries (visited in person or via the “Find-a-Grave” website).
