Summary

  • Added 27 Sep 2026: the families of 1553–1700 found by the variant-spelling harvest (464 more records, 248 people; the "Hegner" years 1569–1636 are the Hegnauers) are charted in the last section, 1553–1700. The families of 1553–1700 found by the variant-spelling harvest also change a few entries of the chart below (merges listed there).
  • Added 27 Sep 2026: the families of 1553–1700 found by the variant-spelling harvest (464 more records, 248 people; the "Hegner" years 1569–1636 are the Hegnauers) are charted in the last section, 1553–1700. They also change a few entries of the chart below (merges and new links are listed at the end of that section).
  • Records placed: 800 (617 proven, 96 probable, 87 possible). They include the Elgg registers themselves and the duplicate entries of Elgg events in neighbouring registers (Aadorf, Aawangen, Ettenhausen, Sirnach, Bichelsee, Dussnang, Gerlikon/Frauenfeld, Felben, Ottoberg in Thurgau; Fehraltorf, Wetzikon, Hombrechtikon, Töss, Wiesendangen and the Zürich city register; Wynau BE). Uster and the other Zürich parishes are in Uster, Wetzikon, the Zürich Oberland and the Thurgau border.
  • People: 255 Hegnauers (by birth or marriage) and their spouses; 47 couples with a Hegnauer husband and 56 marriages of Hegnauer daughters or widows into other Elgg families.
  • Years: burials from 1659, marriages from 1661, baptisms from 1695 (earlier Elgg baptisms are not in the index), to 1875.
  • Review of the 45 automatic couples (F0013–F0057): they reduce to 30 couples (16 groups absorbed by merges, F0030 split in two, and the two children of 1804 and 1808 moved from F0042 to another couple) — see Merges and splits below. The known split Heinrich × Margreth Schäli/Schählj/Schöhlein/Schöchlj (F0013, F0017, F0019) is one couple, Hans Heinrich × Margreth Schöchli, married 26 Jun 1683.
  • Origin: Elgg is the oldest and largest Hegnauer community in the records, but no record says where the Elgg Hegnauers came from. The earliest known ancestors are Jacob (I) (children buried 1659–1670), Heinrich × Cathrina Schawöl (m. 1661), Andres/Andreas (m. 1667 and 1669), Johannes × Anna Gassner (m. 1681) and Hans Heinrich × Margreth Schöchli (m. 1683); with baptisms missing before 1695, none of them can be chained to the couples of 1698–1740.
  • Links out: to Uster (Hans Heinrich, b. 1701, son of Peter × Esther Trachsler, married Dorothea Meyer at Uster in 1730 — probable), to Thurgau (Aadorf, Sirnach, Frauenfeld: proven), to Wetzikon (the Brändli family, proven), to Wynau BE (Ferdinand, probable) and to Rorschach SG (Rudolf b. 1858, possible; Swiss cities and other cantons: Basel, Bern, St. Gallen, Zürich city, Luzern, and entries without a parish).

The lineages

Chaining the couples through burial ages, marriage entries that name parents, and unique given names gives these descent lines (full detail in the chart):

  1. Peter × Esther Trachsler (m. 1698, F0014) — the best-connected early couple (26 descendants in the chart, 4 generations). Sons Hans Heinrich (b. 1701 → the Uster line, probable) and Hans Rudolf (b. 1710, probable: his burial of 1787 computes b. 1710), who married Ursula Felsen (1739, F0033) and Anna Gallmann (1751, F0037). Their sons Felix (b. 1740; m. 1768, d. 1769, possible) and Hans Caspar (b. 1745; the only Caspar of his generation, taken as the husband of Susanna Gamper (1766) and Susanna Büechi (1770): possible), and the daughter Esther (b. 1760) × Hans Jakob Spiller (probable).
  2. Heinrich (b. c.1737, d. 1829) × A Barbara Trachssler (m. 1767, F0042) — the main 19th-century line (34 descendants, 5 generations, ~150 records). Sons Heinrich (b. 1780) × A Margaretha Huggenberger (1819; possible) → Ferdinand (b. 1828) × Elisabetha Kohler (Wynau 1852; probable) → Wilhelm Jacob (b. 1852) × Maria Stahl (possible) → Otto (b. 1875); Zacharias (b. 1795) × Elisabetha Liner (1829; probable), whose children were entered at both Elgg and Aadorf TG → Jakob (b. 1835) × Luise Müller (1859; possible); Johannes (b. 1786) × Anna Frei (Aawangen 1850; possible, with a posthumous son 1851); and the daughter A Barbara (b. c.1783) × Hans Ulrich Huber of Sirnach (1806; proven — her marriage names her parents; 36 records). Heinrich's own parents are unknown (no baptism of 1737 is indexed).
  3. Jacob × Anna Frey (m. 1739, F0031) — 15 descendants, 4 generations: Hans Jacob (b. 1745) × A Magdalena Trachssler (children 1764–1769; possible) → Hans Heinrich (b. 1767) × A Magdalena Trachsler (Felben TG 1796; possible) → Rudolf Heinrich (1804–1827) and Sophia (1808–1836) × Eduard Hauser; daughters Anna (b. 1750) × Hs Geörg Büechi and Magdalena (b. 1758) × Hs Martin Müller (both probable, by burial ages).
  4. Jacob × Elisabeth Grütert (m. 1730 at Elgg and Fehraltorf, F0027) — daughters Susanna (b. 1744) × Heinrich Büechi (probable) and Ursula (b. 1734) × Johannes Spiller (possible).
  5. Johannes × Esther Koller (m. 1709, F0024) — ten children; Sabina (b. 17 Jun 1714) married Caspar Engeler at Gerlikon (Frauenfeld) in 1760: the Thurgau entry gives her exact birth date and father (proven).
  6. Smaller families of the same period: Hans Heinrich × Margreth Schöchli (m. 1683, F0017), Hans Jacob × Margretha Stadelman (m. 1698, F0018), Hans Ulrich × Elsbetha Peter (m. 1709, F0025; daughter Maria b. 1715 × Jung Hans Bollinger of Bichelsee/Dussnang, probable), Hans Caspar × Barbara Peter (m. 1712) and Caspar × Magdalena Büchi (m. 1713) — possibly one man — Hans Ulrich × Magdalena Bulod (m. 1738), Heinrich × Susanna Stadelmann (m. 1770), Caspar × Susanna Büechi (m. 1770), Heinrich × Anna Spiller (1784), Hs Heinrich × A Barbara Mantel (m. 1804) and the mid-19th-century couples (Esther Zinggeler, Elisabetha Brändli, Luise Müller).

Two Elgg Heinrichs were born in 1746 (Hs Heinrich, 3 May 1746, son of Hs Ulrich × Magdalena Bulod; Hs Heinrich, 19 Jun 1746, son of Jacob × Elisabeth Grütert), and two Heinrichs buried in 1817 and 1824 were "b. 1746" (husbands of Anna Spiller and of Susanna Stadelmann). They are the same two men, but which is which cannot be told from the index; both are left unlinked.

Descendant chart

Chart format: Name (b./bapt. – d./bur.) [person key] {occurrence IDs}; × introduces a spouse with the marriage and the family key; children are indented under their parents' marriage. A link that is not proven carries ‹link: probable› or ‹link: possible› (reasons in the evidence section). A date followed by ? comes from a record attached only as possible. Spouses' origins are shown only where a record states or implies them. H-IDs are people already in the study (data/people.csv is their master). Dates are those of the FamilySearch index; no register image has been read (index-only).

  • Hans Jacob Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-183] → F0031: possible — baptized 28 November 1745, both parents named in the entry; identified as the adult: Hs Jacob b. 1745 (son of Jacob × Anna Frey) is the only Elgg Jacob born c.1735-1745 known to have survived; father of children 1764-1769
  • Hans Heinrich Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-187] → F0040: possible — baptized 7 July 1767, both parents named in the entry; identified as the adult: Hs Heinrich b. 7 Jul 1767 (son of Jacob × Magdalena Trachssler) is the only surviving Elgg Heinrich born 1766-1770; the husband of A Magdalena Trachsler was buried 1835 "b. 1768"
  • Sophia Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-190] → CH-ELGG-F40: probable — baptized 1808 to Heinrich × A Magdalena Trachssler; her burial (1836, wife of Eduard Hauser) computes birth 1809 and she is the only Sophia in the Elgg index
  • Anna Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-194] → F0031: probable — her burial (1826) computes birth 1750; Anna was baptized 23 Aug 1750 to Jacob × Anna Frey
  • Magdalena Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-198] → F0031: probable — her burial (1826) computes birth 1759; Magdalena was baptized 20 Sep 1758 to Jacob × Anna Frey

  • Heinrich Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-218] → F0042: possible — baptized 3 December 1780, both parents named in the entry; identified as the adult: Heinrich b. 3 Dec 1780 (son of Heinrich × A Barbara Trachssler) is taken as the Heinrich who married A Margaretha Huggenberger in 1819 and was buried in 1843 "b. 1781"; other Heinrichs born 1772-1784 are also candidates
  • Ferdinand Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-226] → F0048: probable — baptized 1828 to Heinrich × A Margaretha Huggenberger; the only Ferdinand in the index, and his 1852 marriage names his father Heinrich
  • Anna Barbara Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-234] → F0042: proven — her 1806 marriage at Sirnach names her parents Hs Heinrich Hegnauer and A Barb Trachssler (two index entries)
  • Johannes Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-237] → F0042: possible — baptized 5 March 1786, both parents named in the entry; identified as the adult: Johannes b. 5 Mar 1786 (son of Heinrich × A Barbara Trachssler) fits the Joh Hegnauer buried Jan 1851 "b. 1787", husband of Anna Frei (m. 1850)
  • Johann Heinrich Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-239] → F0052: probable — baptized 29 Jun 1851, parents Joh Hegnauer × A Frei; born five months after the burial of Joh Hegnauer, husband of Anna Frei (posthumous child)
  • Zacharias Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-241] → F0042: probable — baptized 23 Sep 1795 to Heinrich × A Barbara Trachssler; he is the only Zacharias in the Elgg records, so taken to be the groom of 1829 (aged 33)
  • Jakob Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-246] → F0049: possible — baptized 29 November 1835, both parents named in the entry; identified as the adult: Jakob b. 1835 (son of Zacharias × Elisabetha Liner) is the only Elgg Jakob born in the 1830s who survived; groom of Luise Müller in 1859 (aged 23)
  • Magdalena Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-264] → F0043: probable — her burial (1847) computes birth 1781; Magdalena was baptized 8 Jul 1781 to Heinrich × Susanna Stadelmann
  • Anna Elisabetha Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-280] → F0047: possible — A Elisabetha b. 1804 to Hs Heinrich × A Barbara Mantel is the likeliest of the Elgg Elisabeths for the bride of Johannes Gamper (1828); no record names her parents
  • Anna Barbara Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-283] → F0047: probable — undated baptism index line (father Heinrich × A Barb Mantel, child A Barbara) and a burial of A Barbara b. 1811, father Heinrich
  • Elisabeth Hegnauer [CH-ELGG-303] → CH-ELGG-F49: probable — burial gives b. 1845 and father Johs Hegnauer

Merges and splits of the automatic groups

  • CH-ELGG-F07 Johannes Hegnauer × Anna Gassner: possibly the same couple as Johannes × Anna Bessner (F0016, child 1700): Gassner/Bessner could be one name misread
  • F0017 Hans Heinrich Hegnauer × Margreth Schöchli: F0013, F0017 and F0019 merged: same husband, the wife's maiden name indexed six ways, children 1697-1708 without overlap
  • F0018 Hans Jacob Hegnauer × Margretha Stadelmann: F0015 and F0018 merged: Jacob/Hans Jacob × Margretha/Margetha Stadelman(n); baptisms interleave (1701, 1704-1713, 1714)
  • F0024 Johannes Hegnauer × Esther Koller: F0020, F0021 (mother "Haller") and F0024 merged: Haller/Keller/Koller/Coller are readings of one name; children 1709-1724 at regular intervals
  • F0025 Hans Ulrich Hegnauer × Elsbetha Peter: F0025 and F0026 merged (Elssbeth/Elsbetha Peter)
  • F0027 Jacob Hegnauer × Elisabeth Grütert: F0027, F0028 and F0035 merged: one couple, the wife's name indexed five ways; the marriage is entered at Elgg and at Fehraltorf (her parish) on the same day
  • F0030 Heinrich Hegnauer × Anna Hegnauer: F0030 split: the 1739 baptism (Heinrich × Anna Hegnauer) and the 1784 baptism (Heinrich × Anna Spiller) are 45 years apart and are two couples
  • F0033 Hans Rudolff Hegnauer × Ursula Felsen: F0032, F0033, F0034 and F0036 merged: Hans Rudolf(f) × Ursula Felsen/Felss/Helsin, children 1740-1750
  • F0037 Hans Rudolff Hegnauer × Anna Gallmann: F0037 and F0038 merged. Husband taken to be the same Rudolf as F0033 (probable): the first marriage's children stop in 1750, he remarries in Oct 1751, and children of both marriages are buried as children of "Rodolff"; only one adult Rudolf is buried (1787, b. 1710)
  • F0040 Hans Jacob Hegnauer × Anna Magdalena Trachssler: F0039 and F0040 merged
  • F0041 Hans Caspar Hegnauer × Susanna Gamper: F0041 (Elgg, 20 Dec 1766) and F0090 (place "Schweiz", 20 Nov 1766) are one baptism indexed twice
  • F0042 Heinrich Hegnauer × Anna Barbara Trachssler: F0042 and F0045 merged (A Barbara / Anna Barbara / Barbara Trachssler). F0042 also held two children of 1804 and 1808 whose mother is A Magdalena Trachsler: they belong to Joh Heinrich × A Magdalena Trachsler (m. 1796) and are moved there
  • CH-ELGG-F74 Heinrich Hegnauer × Anna Spiller: the 1784 half of the automatic group F0030
  • F0049 Zacharias Hegnauer × Elisabetha Liner: F0049, F0050 ("Diner") and the Aadorf groups F0001-F0004 are one family: the children were entered in both the Elgg (home parish) and Aadorf (residence) registers; the Aadorf index once calls the father "Joachim"
  • F0054 Heinrich Hegnauer × Anna Elisabetha Brändli: F0054, F0112 and F0113 merged: the same children were entered at Elgg (home parish) and Wetzikon (residence). Marriage indexed five times (Zürich 30 Sep 1855, Elgg 8 Oct 1855, Wetzikon and Hombrechtikon 15 Oct 1855, Töss "15 Oct 1856")
  • F0055 Jakob Hegnauer × Luise Müller: F0055 and F0056 (Jak × Elise Müller) merged
  • F0057 Wilhelm Jacob Hegnauer × Maria Stahl: husband taken to be Wilhelm Jacob b. 1852 (son of Ferdinand × Elisabetha Kohler): possible, by the rare double name

Conflicts

  • Heinrich × "Anna Magdalena Vogler", Elgg 12 Nov 1796 (O01152) against Heinrich × A Magdalena Trachsler, Felben 22 Nov 1796 (O02658, O01478): taken as the proclamation and the wedding of one marriage, the Elgg bride's surname misindexed (possible). The children of 1804 and 1808 and the husband's burial (1835) all say Trachsler.
  • Two burials of 22 Mar 1829: Heinrich, b. 1737, husband of A Barbara Trachsler (O02175), and "Heinrich Hegnauer, b. 1753, spouse Heinrich Hegnauer" (O02189, O03598) — probably the wife with a wrong given name (possible). If so she was 14 at the 1767 wedding, which argues for a second wife of the same name; the images should settle it.
  • Rudolf, son of Heinrich × Elisabetha Brändli: baptized 27 Jun 1858 in the Wetzikon index and 27 Jun 1859 in the Elgg index (same day and month; one child).
  • Two Margaretha Hegnauers married to Heinrich Trachsler(s): burials of 1809 (b. 1741) and 1811 (b. 1746). Kept as two women.
  • Aadorf 1831: one index calls Zacharias "Joachim" (O00712); the other Aadorf index and the Elgg entry say Zacharias.
  • Burials that fit two families (Susanna 1757, Elisabetha 1759, A Maria/Anna 1766, Heinr 1787, Hanss Jacob 1740) are listed as unlinked people; their father lines are left unplaced (see the README).

Open questions

  1. Baptisms before 1695. The Elgg baptism register must begin earlier than the index; the images would connect the couples of 1698–1740 to the 17th-century families (Jacob I, Heinrich × Schawöl, Hans Heinrich × Schöchli) and show whether Elgg has one Hegnauer stem or several.
  2. Heinrich b. c.1737 (F0042): no baptism indexed. The couple Heinrich × Anna [Hegnauer] (F0030, child 1739) are candidates for his parents.
  3. The two Heinrichs born 1746: which married Susanna Stadelmann (1770) and which Anna Spiller? Their marriage entries (Stadelmann 1770; the Spiller marriage is not indexed) or the Elgg family register (Haushaltungsrodel / Bevölkerungsverzeichnis) would say.
  4. Heinrich b. 1780 = husband of A Margaretha Huggenberger (1819)? Needs his marriage entry with parents; it carries the Ferdinand → Wilhelm Jacob → Otto line.
  5. The Zürich Bevölkerungsverzeichnisse (1634–1780, StAZH E II 700) list every Elgg household with ages; they would test nearly every "possible" link in this file.
  6. Where did the first Elgg Hegnauers come from? Hegnau (Volketswil) is 20 km away; the 1467–70 tax books already show Hegnauers at Hegnau, Wangen, Hirslanden (see places/switzerland.md). An Elgg Bürgerrecht record or the 16th-century Elgg registers would answer it.

1553–1700: the families found by the variant-spelling harvest (added 27 Sep 2026)

Mapped offline from the 1,748 variant-spelling records imported on 27 Sep 2026 (Variant-spelling harvest, FamilySearch historical records); edits file edits/2026-09-27-map-variants.json. Index-only, like the rest of this file.

Summary. 464 of the harvested records belong to Elgg families: 120 of them are further entries of people already in this file (baptisms of children known only from their burials, second index entries of marriages, the wives' burials) and 344 describe people new to the study. 248 people were added (178 Hegnauers by birth or marriage and 70 husbands and wives from other Elgg families). Elgg now starts on 3 Sep 1553, with the baptism of Anna, daughter of Hans Hegnoüwer × Margreta Wister ([H1452]), a century before the first mapping's earliest entry (1659). 23 Hegnauer husbands (25 marriages) are documented 1553–1640 and seven new couples 1640–1700 (six families of the first mapping also receive new entries); 37 Hegnauer women married into Elgg families (Rugger, Zingler, Peter, Weisshaupt, Cappeler, Stadelmann, Schwytzer, Frey, Bürch, Balthasar, Büchi, Fres, Senn and others).

The name at Elgg: Hegnouwer, Hegner, Hegnauwer

  • The Elgg "Hegner" of 1569–1636 is the Hegnauer family (not the Winterthur Hegner): the same couples are indexed under both spellings. Brosshans × Barbara Rugger is Hegnouwer in 1565–1570 and "Grashans Hegner" in 1573; Andreas × Anna Werl is Hegnouwer in 1580–1593 and Hegner in 1583 and 1597; Baschi × Barbel Peter is Hegnouwer 1588–1602 and Hegner in 1603; Uli × Margreth Amann is Hegner 1573–1596 and Hegnouler in 1575; Urich × Aneli Öninger is Hegner 1605–1626 and Hegrauwer in 1606; Genovefa × Adam Peter and Cathrina × Rudolf Zingler appear as Hegner, Hegnower, Hegnauwer and Hegnowler. (Identity of the spelling: proven at the level of these couples; every entry is still index-only.)
  • The spellings follow one another: Hegnoüwer/Hegnouwer (and the misreadings Hognouwer, Hegnowler, Hegnouler, Hegnower) 1553–1615; Hegner 1569–1636; Hegnauwer from the 1590s to 1692 (with Hegnawer, Hegnaur); Hegenauer/Hegnauer from the 1670s. Hans Jacob × Margretha Stadelmann is entered in 1700 and 1703 as "Hegnauerschmid" (Hegnauer the smith).
  • Why the first mapping began in 1659/1695: the earlier baptisms were indexed under these spellings, or without a surname (children entered only with their parents' names).

What the new entries change

  1. The Uster line goes back to the marriage of 1669 (probable). Peter Hegnauer, who married Esther Trachsler in 1698 and whose son Hans Heinrich married at Uster in 1730 (the Uster branch), is taken to be Peter, baptized 14 Jan 1672, son of Andres Hegenuwer × Margreth Bräuwali [Brännwald] (O05366): the only Peter baptized at Elgg in the index before 1700, 26 at his marriage. The chain now reads Andreas × Margreth Brännwald (m. 1669) → Peter (1672) → Hans Heinrich (1701; Uster 1730) → the Uster families. Each step is probable, not proven: no Elgg marriage entry of 1698 names the groom's father.
  2. Jacob (I) is Hs Jacob × Elsbeth Stadelmann (m. 1656). The "Jacob" named as father in the child burials of 1659, 1665 and 1670 (CH-ELGG-001, H0605) is the husband of Elsbeth Stadelmann (CH-ELGG-323, H0936): the burials of 6 Jul 1659 and 8 Apr 1670 follow the baptisms of their children Heinrich (13 Feb 1659) and Eva (1 Sep 1669). H0605 is merged into H0936 (probable).
  3. Johannes × Anna Gessner (m. 1681) is Johannes × Anna "Bessner" (child 1700). Their children are now indexed for 1681–1696 (Hans Heinrich, Hans Jacob twice, Catharina, Johannes, Salomon, Barbara); the Anna of 1700 continues the series. H0658/H0659 are merged into H0625/H0626 (probable). Their son Salomon, bapt. 14 Apr 1694, is taken to be Salomon × Anna Zimmermann (m. 1716) (probable: the only Salomon baptized before 1700). Their son Hans Jacob, bapt. 2 May 1686 ([H1603]), remains the study's possible candidate for Jacob, the first Hegnauer at Igis (H1434, m. 1715): the harvest adds nothing that decides it (see H1434).
  4. Burials now have their baptisms, and several of the first mapping's "possible" child links become proven: the children of Jacob × Barbel Bulod (m. 1679; H0621: Hans Ulrich 1681–82, Verena 1685), of Hans Heinrich × Margreth Schöchli (Catharina 1686–89, Hans Andreas 1687–88, Elsbeth 1689–92, Hs Heinrich 1690–91), of Hans Jacob × Margretha Stadelmann (Hans Ulrich 1700, Anna 1703) and of Johannes × Anna Gessner (Hans Heinrich 1681).
  5. Later Elgg entries: A Barbara, the Sirnach bride of 1806 (H0846), was baptized 3 Nov 1782; the Anna buried 1811 (H1305) is Anna bapt. 3 Dec 1788, daughter of Heinrich × A Barbara Trachssler (probable); Maria Elisabeth, bapt. 7 Aug 1791 (H0852), died at Königsfeld im Schwarzwald (Baden, the Moravian settlement) on 26 May 1867 — the Lutheran burial index gives her exact baptism date and parents (proven); the Elgg entry of the same death (H1306) is merged into her. Also Elisabetha (b. c.1743) × Jakob Stadelmann (d. 1819), Elisabetha Liner (wife of Zacharias, d. 1855), Elise (bapt. 1859, bur. 1862, H1308), Johann Abraham (b. 4 Jun 1857, d. 1858, H0917; his mother Elisabetha Frei).
  6. What still cannot be done: no Elgg marriage entry before 1700 names the groom's father, so the households of 1553–1660 are not chained to one another or to the couples of 1698–1740. The chart gives the few possible bridges (Baschy b. 1561 → Baschi × Barbel Peter; Heinrich b. 1565 → Heinrich × Cathrina Stadelmann; Hans Heinrich b. 1599 → Hans Heinrich × Barbel Dirtsch) and one probable one (Urich b. 1584 → Urich × Aneli Öninger, m. 1605).

Descendant chart, 1553–1640

Chart format as above: Name (b./bapt. – d./bur.) [H-ID] {occurrence IDs}; × introduces a spouse; children are indented under their parents' marriage; ‹link: probable/possible› marks a parent link that is not proven (reasons in the evidence list). People already in the study before 27 Sep 2026 keep their H-IDs (H0001-H1449); the people added from the variant harvest are H1450-H2189. Dates are those of the FamilySearch index; no register image has been read (index-only).

Descendant chart, 1640–1700 (new families, and the families of the first mapping with their new entries)

Hegnauer women married into other Elgg families, 1569–1819 (parents not identified)

Only the Hegnauer wife and her husband are in the study; the children's baptisms are attached to her (the row is the child's, the Hegnauer in it is the mother). "Possible" parents are given in the evidence list.

  • Brosshans Hegnauer (bapt. 1566) [H1483] {O04369}
  • Melchior Hegnauer (bapt. 1566) [H1484] {O04490}
  • Barbel Hegnauer (– bur. 27 October 1611) [H1692] {O04297}
  • Apollonia Hegnauer (– bur. 14 January 1624) [H1639] {O04279}
  • Hans Heinrich Hegnauer (– d. 17 February 1629) [H1689] {O04333}
  • Andreas Hegnauer (– bur. 7 August 1675) [H1695] {O04253}
  • Barbara Hegnauer (c.1693 – bur. 15 February 1707) [H1619] {O04268}
  • Hs Ulrich Hegnauer (– bur. 1713) [H1614] {O04256}
  • Catharina Hegnauer [H1455] → Jacob Hegnauer [H1453] × Anna Knobel [H1454]: probable — baptism names Jacob × Anna (mother indexed with the husband's surname); the only Jacob × Anna couple then
  • Elszbet Hegnauer [H1479] → Brosshans Hegnauer [H1474] × Barbara Rugger [H1477]: probable — baptism names 'Hansen Hegnouwer × Barbel Kuger' - Kuger is one of the readings of Rugger, and no other Hans had a wife of that name
  • Ursula Hegnauer [H1482] → Brosshans Hegnauer [H1474] × Barbara Rugger [H1477]: probable — baptism names 'Grashans Hegner × Barbel Kügger': Grashans is a misreading of Brosshans, Kügger of Rugger
  • Fridrich Hegnauer [H1487] → Joseph Hegnauer [H1485] × Dorothea Huggenberger [H1486]: probable — the baptism names only the father Joseph; Joseph's children 1568-1573 are all by Dorothea Huggenberger; a second Fridrich was baptized in 1573, so this one probably died young
  • Barbel Hegnauer [H1508] → Uli Hegnauer [H1498] × Margreth Amann [H1499]: probable — baptism names 'Hans Hegner × Margreth Amann': every other child of Margreth Amann is Uli's, so Hans is probably a slip
  • Barbel Hegnauer [H1565] → Hans Heinrich Hegnauer [H1563] × Anna Rugger [H1564]: probable — the mother's name is indexed three ways (Pugger/Füger/Kürgger), all readings of Rugger
  • Cathrina Hegnauer [H1566] → Hans Heinrich Hegnauer [H1563] × Anna Rugger [H1564]: probable — the mother's name is indexed three ways (Pugger/Füger/Kürgger), all readings of Rugger
  • Hanns Heinrich Hegnauer [H1567] → Hans Heinrich Hegnauer [H1563] × Anna Rugger [H1564]: probable — the mother's name is indexed three ways (Pugger/Füger/Kürgger), all readings of Rugger
  • Andreas Hegnauer [H1578] → Hanns Rudolff Hegnauer [H1574] × Elsbeth Wetzel [H1575]: possible — burial names only the father Rudolf Hegner; Hanns Rudolff × Elsbeth Wetzel is the only Rudolf couple with young children then
  • Hans Ulrich Hegnauer [H1593] → Ulrich Hegnauer [H1589] × Maria Schaürmeyer [H1590]: probable — the baptism names the father without a given name ('Hegnaueter') and the mother as 'Anna Schenameyer', a reading of Maria Schaürmeyer
  • Catharina Hegnauer [H1602] → Johannes Hegnauer [H0625] × Anna Gassner [H0626]: probable — baptism names 'Hans Hegnauwer × Anna Gessner' - Hans for Johannes
  • Heinrichli Hegnauer [H1688] → Hans Heinrich Hegnauer [H0630] × Margreth Schöchli [H0631]: possible — burial names only the father Heinrich; like the other child burials of 1688-1692, placed with Heinrich × Margreth Schöchli (m. 1683), the Heinrich family with young children then
  • Identifications of adults (occurrence links): Urich × Aneli Öninger (m. 1605) is taken to be Urich b. 12 May 1584 (probable); Andres × Madle Lud (m. 1630) is taken to be Anderes b. 1608, son of M. Anthoni (possible); Baschi × Barbel Peter's marriage is the "Barth Hegnowler × Barbel Peter" entry of 16 May 1585 (probable); Genovefa b. 1561 (indexed Benefe) is taken to be Genovia Hegner × Adam Peter, whose first son was named Blasius after her father (probable); Salome b. 1564 → Salome × Michel Zingler (possible); Barbel b. 1582 → Barbara × Hans Cappeler (possible); Margreth b. 1576 → Margreth × Jacob Petter (possible).
  • Undated mother entries. Many children of Hegnauer mothers are indexed without a date. They are attached by the couple's names; where two couples of the same names exist, the spelling decides (Hegnouwer/Hegnauwer: 16th–17th century; Hegenauer: 1675–1735), graded possible: Margreth × Heinrich Frey (m. 1589, or the couple of 1699), Elsbetha/Lisabeth × Hans Heinrich Büchi (m. 1703 or 1721).

Merges and changes to the chart above

  • CH-ELGG-001 Jacob (H0605) → merged into CH-ELGG-323 Jacob × Elsbeth Stadelman (H0936); his children CH-ELGG-002–004 (H0606–H0608) now have both parents (probable).
  • CH-ELGG-054/055 Johannes × Anna Bessner (H0658/H0659) → merged into CH-ELGG-021/022 Johannes × Anna Gassner (H0625/H0626); their children CH-ELGG-056/057 move with them.
  • CH-ELGG-350 Elisabetha (d. 26 May 1867; H1306) → merged into CH-ELGG-240 Maria Elisabeth (H0852).
  • CH-ELGG-058 Peter (H0662) → now bapt. 14 Jan 1672, son of CH-ELGG-009 Andreas × Margreth Brännwald (probable); CH-ELGG-130 Salomon (H0742) → bapt. 14 Apr 1694, son of Johannes × Anna Gassner (probable).
  • CH-ELGG-017 Jacob (H0621) → his wife is Barbel Bulod (m. 1679); CH-ELGG-018–020 are their children.
  • New dates for CH-ELGG-023, -028, -029, -030, -032, -045, -046, -053 (bur. 1714), -095 (bur. 1733), -234, -274 (bur. 1811), -283, -349, -352, the 1857 child CH-ELGG-304 and Elisabetha Liner (CH-ELGG-242, d. 1855).

Left unplaced or out of study (Elgg series)

  • Out of study: O04716 (Rosa Hagenauer × Vincenz, Catholic names: the St. Gallen Hagenauer family).

  1. The images of the 1550s–1630s registers: whether the pastor wrote Hegnouwer/Hegnauwer throughout and the index's "Hegner" is a misreading or an abbreviation (Hegn'er), and whether any marriage entry names the groom's father or origin.
  2. How many men are the Hans of 1553–1567 (× Margreta Wister 1553, × Anna Petter 1555, × Elsa Furer 1556, × Salome Peter 1558–1567) and the Jacob of 1554 (× Anna Knobel) and 1563 (× Beatrix Pitz)? Remarriages after a wife's death would join them.
  3. Where the family of 1553 came from. The nearest other entries of the name are at Fehraltorf (1548–1550) and Illnau-Effretikon (from 1559), 10–15 km towards Hegnau (see Uster, Wetzikon, the Zürich Oberland and the Thurgau border).
  4. The plague of 1629: at least seven Elgg Hegnauers were buried between February and October 1629 (Hans Heinrich, Hans son of Sebastian, Ulrich, Anna, "Lienhart Hörer" wife of Ulrich, Antoni, Rudolph).
  5. The Zürich Bevölkerungsverzeichnisse (from 1634) would link the households of 1630–1700 to those of 1700–1740 (see the open questions above).
