Family History Beginners Board / Seeking assistance with German lineage
« on: Monday 15 July 19 03:55 BST (UK) »
I am seeking help confirming the earlier lineage of my family, prior to my great grandfather, Mathias Haas. He was born on August 2, 1859 in Prechtal, in what was then the Grand Duchy of Baden, now Germany. I know that the names of his parents were Mathias Haas and Katharina Bühler. He died in White Haven, Pennsylvania, USA on May 7, 1924.
On the WikiTree message board, a poster recommended I access the Landesarchiv Baden-Württemberg (https://www2.landesarchiv-bw.de/ofs21/olf/startbild.php?bestand=10028), but I have not had any success doing so, and also provided a link to his civil birth record (image below) ...

So, as I initially requested, I am seeking any assistance identifying the earlier generations of my Haas family, and finding any information about them.
Thanks, Bill Haas
