Martha Räuschenberger (b. January 11, 1626/27)

Today's featured relative is my paternal 9th-great grandmother, Martha Räuschenberger.

Martha was born January 11, 1626/27 in Egenhausen, Württemberg, the daughter of Christoph and Barbara (Rass) Räuschenberger. Martha married Hans Stickel, son of Peter and Margaretha (Grossmann) Stickel. Hans was before November 1, 1621 in Egenehausen, Württemberg and died February 12, 1692/93 in Egenhausen, Württemberg. I do not know when Martha died.

I descend from Hans and Martha (Räuschenberger) Stickel through their son, Christoph, as follows:
Martha Räuschenberger and Hans Stickel
Christoph Stickel and Anna Bräun
