Proposed Change: Michel-Victor Feyertag (I232289) Tree: Südpfalz / Southern Palatinate Link: http://www.birkenhoerdt.net/getperson.php?personID=I232289&tree=Suedpfalz Description: Birth: Bois de Chene, Phalsbourg, Mosselle, Lorraine, France commune, department, region, country CORRECTED spelling 'Mosselle' ADDED Region Found no info on Bois de Chene. Maybe a neighborhood. Phalsbourg (German: Pfalzburg) is a commune in the Moselle department in Lorraine in north-eastern France. The city of Phalsbourg, originally Pfalzburg, was originally part of the principality of Lützelstein/Petite Pierre, under the overlordship of Luxemburg/Luxembourg, then thebishops of Metz and of Strassburg/Strasbourg, before coming under the Dukes of Pfalz-Veldenz, all within the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. In 1570, Duke Georg Johann I of Pfalz-Veldenz founded the town of Pfalzburg as a refuge for Reformed Protestants kicked out of the Duchy of Lothringen/Lorraine, and as an administrative center of his holdings. But the cost forced him to sell the city and the surrounding district of Einarzhausen between 1583 1590 to Lothringen, whose territory surrounded most of the area. In 1608, his successor Georg Gustav of Pfalz-Veldenz founded nearby Lixheim for Reformed refugees, but was also forced to sell the new town in 1623 to Lothringen. Mariner's Knoll Genealogy USA
