Descendants of Johannes Schellenberger (Imm 1732)

Note about Johannes ancestors: Before Johannes was listed on the Hans Gorg page because some researchers were convinced that Johannes father was the Hans Gorg that came in 1727 (also spelled Jurg, Jergle, and Jorg). However, this is unlikely. As Martin J Shallenberger put it, " I don't think he [Johannes] was a child of Hans Jorg Schallenberger if Hans Jurg was born in Reihen, Germany on Nov. 14, 1694 and married, at age 29, to Anna Margretha Hug in Jan 1723. He would have had to previously move to Alsace and marry some woman there, at age 17, in order to have Johannes Schellenberger, as a son born Jun 24, 1712."
