but cannot as not allowed so I am adding it here. It relates to the above who anglicised his name to Dashley. There is also a photograph of his shop. The rest of the website is also very interesting.

Hello SwissGill,
Thank you very much for the link and the additional information on Karl Deuschle of Birkenhead. His wife Maria Katharina Rüben was born on 23rd February 1865 at Bächlingen, Württemberg.
I am sending you details in an e-mail, so that you can add her to the database.

Kind regards

Hi There Berlin-Bob,

As you know I only joined Rootschat yesterday but for obvious reasons am very interested in your idea for a database for Pork Butchers. My father's business(inherited) from my grandfather was a very successful (in its heyday ) Pork Butchery business. It possessed a very intriguing window display, the outline of a Pig made out of a neon light tube. A catchphrase coined by my father was ' the only thing you can't eat from a Pig is it's squeak! A contemporary of my father was named Bert Shouler who also ran a successful butchery business in Hull and later went into wholesale meat supply and I believe are still in business near Bridlington, East Yorkshire. Also Kress and Wagner, German immigrants were in business at this time in Hull. In fact I believe that my grandfather was for some time in partnership with Mr Kress or that Mr Kress may have leant him money to help establish his business. I have memories of my fathers shop on Porter street brimming with all manner of German sausages and cooked meats. His trade was varied, from supplying notable local restaurants to providing cheap meats etc to the less wealthy working class of the area. Just talking of it brings forth the most delicious smells! I do have some very old sepia photographs of my grandfather and mother. In one he wearing the gold cygnet ring that I wear to this day!
I hope that as we move on I may eventually discover just where he was born and see if there are any relatives still alive.

Thanks for your recent help,

Nick Uebel

Hi Nick,

I hope you find the database useful.  Please enter any related names you know, as "submitter and researcher" and you can also enter any other names you know, just as a submitter.  They may help others.  But check first if some one else has already entered them.

This topic is more for the technical side of the database. 
For the family history side of things, you might also enjoy reading the topics listed here

Hello Nickuebel,
as you may have already realized, most of the German pork butchers originated from a very small area in Württemberg, called Hohenlohe.
I searched the Emigration lists and found a Karl Johann Michael Uebel who was born at Kupferzell and who left Germany in 1889. That means this Charles John Michael Uebel was most probably born around 1870. Do these data correspond with your documents?
Kress and Wagner came from Kocherstetten which is not far away and also the Schueler name (anglicised Shouler) is common around here as still is the Uebel name. Nearly all German pork butchers in Hull had come from the Hohenlohe area.
Best wishes

I'm not sure that I am on the right thread?

But:

Berlin Bob

The addition of a section where we can add details to the original entry is great.

Even if the original poster, even though informed by PM, does not react, the addition remains.

thank you.
