BIOGRAPHY:MARXER
http://www.itcs.uiuc.edu/users/beaumont/Marxer.htm
The first of our ancestors to come to America were the Marxers. In 1845, they emigrated from Altenheim, North Alsace, Canton Zaborn (48 43'N, 7 50'E). Altenheim is just 50 kilometers south of Birkenhordt, where the Ehrstein family originated, and 60 kilometers south of Hambach, where the Stoeckels originated. The close proximity of these towns illustrates how similar the economic conditions might have been for the families who were deciding to emigrate.
Germans actually predominated in this region of France. Ninety-nine percent of the inhabitants spoke German in the 1800s, so their cultural heritage approximates the heritage of their countrymen across the Rhine River. Also, since Altenheim was just 25 miles from Strasbourg, it must have had a relationship much like Millstadt and St. Louis, especially in the 1840s.
