SOUFFLENHEIM CHURCH RECORDS IN OTHER VILLAGES Robert Wideen : 2020 Soufflenheim Genealogy Research and History www.soufflenheimgenealogy.com Church records from St. Michael’s in Soufflenheim begin in 1743. Earlier records are found in other communities, particularly in Haguenau during the 17th century. Saint Nicolas, Haguenau, 19th Century “Frederick the 1st “the Red Beard” was crowned emperor in 1152. He wanted to build a sanctuary for the numerous pilgrims who were coming to the town of Haguenau to venerate the Holy Relics and to admire the royal insignia which were in the imperial chapel of the Hohenstaufen castle. Many among these pilgrims were sick or poor. In 1189 Frederick “the Red Beard” wrote an edict saying that a home must be built “to give bread to the poor and shelter to the penniless and homeless”, which would be run by the “Prémontrés” monks under the patronage of Saint Nicholas. This hospice was located outside the first surrounding wall of the town and its sanctuary became the parish church of the Northern part of the town. The social, economic and religious crises of the Middle-Ages forced the monks to sell the monastery to the town. During the Thirty Years War, the parish had no priest and was thus ministered by the Augustinian and Dominican Friars. After the occupation of the town by French troops in 1635, the “Prémontrés” monks from “Allerheiligen” in the Black Forest, bought the church and again took over the service in Saint Nicholas until the French revolution in 1789. Since then, the parish is ministered by the secular clergy.” (Origin of the Parish of Saint Nicholas, Saint Nicholas Parish) CONTENTS Soufflenheim Church Records in other Villages ........................................................................................... 1 Haguenau .................................................................................................................................................. 2 Other Villages .......................................................................................................................................... 12 Civil Records in Other Villages.................................................................................................................... 44 Records Searched ...................................................................................................................................... 46 Saint Georges, Haguenau, 19th Century.
