"Hans König, from Switzerland, living in his son's household in Obernimburg, community of Nimburg, Baden, Germany, where he died in May 1732.... On 22 Oct. 1732 Christian König petitioned the government for an exemption to the Todfall, a tax due at his father's death.[1]
"Hans may have been a son of Samuel or Hans König of Steffisburg and Ste. Marie-aux-Mines. A notarial record now in the Archives of Upper Alsace at Colmar shows that 'Jean König' arranged transportation from La Petite Lièpvre (just below Ste. Marie - aux - Mines) to Baden Oct. 25, 1713. He would be accompanied by 'Jacqui Hochstedler' – likely the Jakob/Jacob Hochstedler who was a companion minister to Jacob Amman. Jacob Amman made his own arrangements to depart from La Petite Lièpvre on the same day."[2]
