"Bartl Family
Maunder lists 13 children born to
Andreas Nicolaus Bartl (c.1682–1762) ...
in two marriages. His first wife Rosalia née Vogler died on 28 September 1723 and his second wife Judith née Wolker, whom he married on 20 February 1724, died on 28 July 1762, just a few days before his own death on 4 August 1762.
Since these deaths were so close together, both of their estates were handled in one document labelled “Wey[land] Andre Niklas Pärtl burg: Lautenmachers, und dessen Ehewürthin Judith Verlassenschaften”
In his will, Andreas Nicolaus had stipulated that the two surviving
children from his first marriage were to receive the following sums:
Michael Pärtl ein burg: Geigenmacher”, 40 f. “Catharina Pärtlin verwittibte Helmerin”, 60 f.
The four surviving children from his second marriage were to receive 100 f. each: Maria Theresia, aged 29 (she died unmarried on 30 November 1765) Maria Anna, aged 27 Joseph, aged 23 (in 1765 he worked as a “Täz amts officiant”)
Carolina, aged 23 (she married Maximilian Royß on 7 February 1763)
The father’s estate was estimated to be worth 909 f. 32 x, including 155 f. 16 x
