Decipher Stambaum 17th cent. place name?
« on: Thursday 11 January 18 16:21 GMT (UK) »
Attached are two snippets from an old family tree. I've (sort of) got the names and birth/marriage/death dates but I detect a place name and/or occupation lurking. One jpg is the snippet for Hans Casper, and the other for his son, Lorenz.

Extraordinary gratitude and good thoughts extended for any assistance provided. Thanks.

Heartfelt thanks for the assistance above.

One more question: would someone be able to explain "Schloßmagd"? I'm coming up blank in my own research ("lock maiden"?).

Many thanks.

Schloss = castle, palace
Magd = handmaid, maidservant

So: handmaid in a castle/palace.

Schloss is written with "ss" these days, instead of "ß".

This gives his birth and death dates and "married Margarethe x on..." but I'm not sure about her surname. I keep seeing Gegan, but that doesn't sound likely...
