Surnames: Vaeth, Hauk, Krebs, Krebsinn, Feth, Vath, Feed
Hi. I've been doing some research on Margaret Vaeth c. 24 Feb 1780 in Freudenberg, Baden, Germany who married Dominic Kern 30 Apr 1805, also in Freudenberg. They had 8 children until a month after giving birth to her last child and she died 16 Nov 1820. At least 4 of her children came to the US.

I have recently found her parents. I found them when I looked up her marriage record. They are Bernardi Vaeth and Margaretha Hauk who were married 13 Apr 1779. They had 4 children that I've found so far - Anna Margaretha, c. 24 Feb 1780, Anna Catharina, c. 21 Jan 1782, Franciscus Petrus, c. 25 Dec 1783 and Mary Magdalena Vaeth, c. 20 Mar 1786. When I looked up Bernardi Vaeth's marriage record, it mentioned his parents are Nicolaei (Nicholas?) Vaeth and Margarethae Krebsinn. Perhaps her last name is actually Krebs since they commonly added on inn or ine to women's last names.

All of these people lived in Freudenberg, Baden, Germany. I also found many spellings of the name Vaeth in transcribed records and haven't double checked the spellings with the actual record yet. Other spellings I found are Vath, Feth and Feed. Is this common? Is anyone else researching the Vaeth family in the German records? I'd appreciate any help. Thanks!
