Re: Just curious, Lu...
My ancestor, Carsilius Aegidius Paulis, was born around 1450 in the German village Waldfeucht and he died around 1500 in the same village. He married Catharina von Zevell, who died around 1490. Carsilius was presumably one of the illegitimate sons of Earl Heinrich III von Geldern. Heinrich von Geldern was firstly the Bishop of Lüttich, but because of his lifestyle, the Pope 'fired' him and then he became an Earl.That's all I know about Carsilius. I don't know what his profession has been, for example, but I think he probably must've been an agriculturer, although I'm not sure of it.Regards,Lu
