Berchtold

Does anyone have any information on Berchtold's from Langweid, Germany?
Looking for a Duke Joseph Berchtold, living around 1890 and Rosina
(Berchtold) around the same time.. I know Rosina was born Oct 1859. All I
know is that Joseph eventually came to USA looking for his daughter, Marie.
He never found her and we don't know what happened to him after that.

You don't say which country you are in, or where you are looking for
information, Germany or USA? It makes some difference on how to suggest you
proceed.

First off, there are four Langweid locations in Germany.

8646_ Langweid a Lech
83064 Langweid - Raubling
83115 Langweid - Neubeuern
87651 Langweid - Bidingen

The last three are apparently part of larger towns.

following listings of Berchtold:

946 Berchtold in all of Germany.
1 Berchtold in 86462 Langweid.
4 Berchtold in 87651 Bidingen.
1 Berchtold in 83064 Raubling.

And, there are 84 Berchtold within 25 km (15 miles) of 87651 Bidengen, so
there is quite a cluster of Berchtold in that area.

No cigars, but you might try writing to those Berchtolds living in 87651
Bidengen. Or, to the one Berchtold in 86462 Langweid a Lech, if you know
for sure that this is the right town.
