Re: Awalt - Ludwig thru Eva
Oops - just found this, after replying to your next message.
What I am interested in (from this line) would be info about:
Ludwig Awalt b abt 1700 Bavaria, married Agnes (--?--); did they emigrate to America when their son Michael did? What was Agnes' maiden name? When did they die, & where? What was Ludwig's occupation? Etc. Johannes Awalt, b abt 1722 Bavaria, marr. ????; must have emigrated to America as their son Michael was born in PA, but I don't know when. Do not even know his wife's name. Michael Abraham Awalt (abt 1755, Germantown, Philadelphis, PA - 6 Apr 1835, Franklin TN); he married Eva Speck (Apr 1763 Mecklenburg, SC - 2 Aug 1848 Franklin, TN). I have her parents as David (Dewalt) Speck Sr. (1729- abt 1781) + Barbara ????; would like to know more about Eva Speck's ancestry. I have Michael's will, a list of his children, most of his children's spouses, and his Revolutionary War service history. George Awalt (25 Nov 1779 Mecklenburg, NC - 22 Mar 1861 AR). He married Catherine Speck (23 Jun 1780, NC - 13 Jul 1862, AR); their marriage record has his name as Pahall. I would like to know more about Catherine; I don't have her parents or any possible relationship between Catherine & Catherine's mother-in-law, Eva Speck. From here down I have a lot of information. Thank you.

Re: Awalt - Ludwig thru Eva
Hello Holly since your Husband is part of the Awalt family too I was wondering if he had any pictures of the Awalts? Faces with info is so cool.

I agree, faces with info is a nice thing. But we don't have any pictures of my husband's Awalts; the most recent one he has is Eva Awalt, & she died in 1868, so I guess it isn't too surprising she didn't have her picture made.
Do you have any pictures for the Awalts who lived before Eva? (George, Michael Abraham Sr., Johannes, Ludwig) Maybe someone made a drawing or something, but I haven't seen such.

Sadly no I don't have any of the Awalts pics. I have some pics of the families that link up to the Awalt's for me.

Re: Awalt - Ludwig thru Eva
Curious to know if you ever learned the answers to these questions, as I also descend from this line.
Thanks, gw

Re: Awalt - Ludwig thru Eva
I don't know much more than I used to, and haven't worked on this line for a while. Here are a couple of bits:
From some miscellaneous unsourced internet tree: Ludwig Awalt d 16 Mar 1760, Pennsylvania, Col. Amer.
There's a record in the Wuerttemberg, Germany, Emigration Index on Ancestry for one Johannes Alt that might be Johannes Awalt (b 1722); here is what it says: District: Goeppingen Name: Alt, Johannes Birth Place: Sparwiesen Application Date: 1836 Destination: Philadelphia Number: 598679
That's about all I have that's sort of new. I hope the punctuation doesn't screw up when this posts.
