Conrad Sprunger (fl. 1757)

Conrad Sprunger

K Pieterlen 2, images 149 and 175

Father of Peter, baptized at Pieterlen on 20 November 1757 (“den 20. Wintermonat … Infans Peter. Par: Conrad Sprunger …”).

Father of Peter Sprunger (1757–1840). Married at Pieterlen on 15 November 1752 to Elsbeth Grober of Sumiswald (K Pieterlen 2, image 175). He is entered as “von Dießenhofen”, a town on the Rhine in Thurgau, which confirms the family tradition (GAMEO) that the Sprungers came from Thurgau. On the same day Verena Sprunger married Samuel Grober and Jacob Sprunger married Susanna Kunz[?], all “von Dießenhofen”: probably his sister and brother.
