Wait till you read that one. Glad to hear you're familiar with Gedmatch and that you found that out already. Now read this article and you'll see the history more so of those places. (I think).

Kingdom of southwestern Germany. The earliest traces of Jews in this country are found in Bopfingen (1241), Ulm (1243), Esslingen (1253), Oehringen (1253), Calw (1284), and Weil (1289); and their numbers, as well as the places where they lived, may be ascertained by investigating the persecutions to which they were subjected by Rindfleisch and his followers (1298). Oppenheimer lived here-one of my matches, an important one. Lots more in this article to read.

If so, have one also take the family finder test, and from that child, it can be found if his parents have any DNA connection-thus being related. The test is to go to GedMatch.com. It's a free site. <br /> Nadene Goldfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01654020384945801380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787272385367494897.post-70378808853835632462015-12-22T20:40:16.010-08:002015-12-22T20:40:16.010-08:00can't find much on the mother's lineages. ...can't find much on the mother's lineages. the leibee (leiby) name goes back a ways. i have not really worked on his genealogy but think i might need to do that. ;) his ancestor leibee and my ancestor katz all hailed from wuertemberg germany--small small world.........LSWAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15199199816739922450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787272385367494897.post-90519789564978185512015-12-22T20:18:35.485-08:002015-12-22T20:18:35.485-08:00did a quick check and it looks like my husband'...did a quick check and it looks like my husband's 5x grgrandfather immigrant leiby was from wuertemberg germany b 1724 d 1807 berks co pa.

Leibowitz Name Meaning Jew...I looked up Leibowitz. Leibowitz Name Meaning Jewish (Ashkenazic): patronymic from Leib 1. The suffix -owitz represents a Germanized form of the eastern Slavic patronymic suffix -ovich, Polish -owicz. So Leib is Jewish. I also looked up Leibee and found a lot in the USA. I noted Henry, Illinois had a large family. That city was close to where my mother's Robinsons were living. My maternal grandfather was living in Wenona, Illinois. Any Robinsons in your family? I would think that Leib would definitely be German; possibly German Jewish. Have him take the familyfinder test at Family Tree DNA and see if he matches up with any Jewish Ashkenazi people. That would be most interesting. I personally checked to see who matched me in DNA and I found Leible, Leibovich, Leibovitz and Leibowitz.Nadene Goldfoothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01654020384945801380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1787272385367494897.post-74177049953725354232015-12-22T15:29:26.506-08:002015-12-22T15:29:26.506-08:00a question nadene........
