Research status

Research status: PROBABLE, strong Probable confirm or correct →, as a son of Hanß Pröger and Barbara, and so a brother of Earl’s 7th-great-grandfather Hans (Johann) Pröger. Georg Christian, son of Hans and Barbara, was baptised on 17 March 1688; the farmer “Hanß Christian Prüger” buried in 1735 was 46 or 47 less a few days, which counts back to March 1688. He is not Earl’s ancestor.

Evidence: Georg Christian, son of Hans and Barbara Pröger, was baptised at Michelbach on 17 March 1688 (Taufregister Bd 4, image 53); the farmer “Hanß Christian Prüger” of Seibotenberg was buried on 6 March 1735 aged 46/47 less a few days (Totenregister Bd 9, image 14), which counts back to March 1688. Weak or missing: The burial calls him Hanß Christian, and the tie to the 1688 baptism rests on his age to the month; his marriage is not in the Michelbach register, and his wife’s surname M[elchinger?] is a doubtful read.

Compiled for the Proeger family

Living adults appear by name and relationship, with the year only: no full date of birth and no home town on any page that search engines index, and a living person’s own page is kept out of search engines. Minors appear by name only — no date of birth, no birth year, no age, no school, no place, no address, no other identifying detail. A minor may be named and may appear in a family photograph; nothing further about them is published. Where it is not established whether someone is an adult or a minor, the minor rule applies.
