My Ohlhauser family comes from the village of Freudental. Check out the Black Sea German database http://www.blackseagr.org and search the name BITZ and you will find a lot of them.

Hi,

My Pfaff Family can be found at
http://www.remmick.org/Pfaff.Genealogy/index.html

They migrated from Moresfeld / Palatinate (Pfalz, Germany) to Torschau, Ungarn, Austria-Hungery to Fruedental / Od. , S. (sourthern part of) Russia. My great grandmother married Jakob Roemmich of Worms / Odessa, S. Russia and they migrated to Streeter, ND, USA.... All can to found with photos, maps, stories.

I always have to thank Ralph Wiseman and Karen, nee Weisenburger, Abel for all the information they provided.

Enjoy.

See http://www.grhs.org/chapters/gdo/gdo_maps.html for a map of the GDO area showing Freudental in the upper left corner (This appears to be detail from one of the Stumpp maps).
and
http://www.grhs.org/chapters/gdo/memonly/p-images/freudental.jpg for a street map of the village of Freudental, GDO in 1943 (also shows inhabitants of the houses).

First of all Hello
I have been doing research on Freudental and I am trying to fill in some gaps. I am descended from George Adam Sieler and His Wife Johanna. I think that her name is Krauss. Page 575 number 67 Sieler, Georg 34, aus Unterbohringen od Altenstadt/Geislingen-Wu, seine Frau Johanna 32 and seine Kinder Elizabeth 12, George 10 and Adam 3.
Is Johanna related to Number 68 on Page 575?
68
Kraus, Georg 56, aus Landenburg/Mannheim-Ba (u Torschau/Ungarn) seine Frau Sophie 50, seine Kinder Johann 12, Georg 15, Katharina 12.

I noticed a note that George Adam went through Torschau.

So there you go.
