Anna Margaretha Kinzinger

Anna Margaretha Kinzinger 
was born on April 2, 1830 in the Bavarian village of Huttenheim, Germany, which is about 322 kilometers southwest of Marktbreit where she lived as an adult.




Anna Margaretha was born to Andreas Kinzinger and Katharina Hannewacker. Sadly, she was only 24 years old when her father died.

Fifteen years after her father's death, she married Johann Mandel (1831 - 1886) of Marktbreit on October 9, 1869 in St. Peter's Church in nearby Wurzburg.  According to the parish records, Joseph and Andreas Wagner, custodes in the church, were their witnesses. How they met is a mystery to us since they did not live in the same area. She was 39 when she married and very likely may have been a widow with children.





One year after their marriage, Maria 'Rettel' Mandel (1870 - 1925) - our ancestor -  was born in Marktbreit. We do not know if there were any other children born after Maria.

After her husband, Johann, died, Anna moved to Frickenhausen to live with Wendel and Maria until her death in 1910.
