Studer von Pfaffnau LU

Hello Javier

I’m glad you found the information regarding your family.

Sadly I don’t have pictures of the entries anymore since it was some years ago. I found the information about the siblings of your grandfather Ferdinand Studer in the vital records and family registers.

Kind regards

Olivier

Thanks Oliver,

I appreciate this very much, since I understood that he only had one brother, and I see that I was completely wrong! When I checked with the civil registry of the Luzern district they had a registered brother, I think, but they did not inform me of more.
I have the photos of the records, and also, of the marriage certificate of my great-grandparents. How could I gather with that information today? since I would like to reconstruct part of that history of my family, which was always a little hidden from us, descendants of Ferndinand. I already have in my possession birth records of my great-grandparents, and my grandparents, Ferdinand and Elisa, but I never received information about their siblings. And now I have a great intrigue. It was very surprising to see how involuntarily, this information came to me after so many years. I was tempted to ask for the familienschein, but I don't know if it would include the registry of his entire family, including his siblings. Any information you can give me, I will greatly appreciate it. As for us descendants of immigrants in Latin America, it is always striking that there are such old records of our families, since some of our countries do not have more than 200 years of existence. Thanks again.

Hello Javier

You're welcome.

Civil records from 1876 on aren't online anywhere. But the church records from the parishes of Lucerne until 1875 are online at FamilySearch (Pfaffnau for example here).

What are the chances that Ferdinand is not really the Ferdinand that I am looking for?
Actually I am almost sure that it is, since in the Luzern archive, when I sent photos of my grandfather's military notebook, this was exactly the family information that was sent to me, although the list of his brothers was not complete, I understand, because some of them, as I have seen, were born outside the commune.

So I had some doubt, the name Studer being so common in Pfaffnau, that this was not my branch of Studer. But yes, indeed, my grandfather is Ferdinand Studer, born in Pfaffnau in 1891, son of Eduard Studer and Karolina Purtschert. I know that he arrived in Argentina before 1929. Although I have not obtained the records of his entry to Argentina, that is why I have no precision. Surely his parents died when he was less than 10 years old. And really, I don't know, if he was raised by older brothers, or another family. At that time, I don't know what the confederation's regulations were regarding minors.

I appreciate the information he gave me.
Kind regards.

You're welcome!

Ferdinand wasn't a common name so I guess it's pretty certain that he was your ancestor. Also you know the names of his parents which makes it clear for me.

Kind regards

Olivier
