I would like to add a "Jewish Families from Bendorf" project. How do I do that? I just attempted to join the Jewish Communities in Germany project but my membership hasn't come through yet, fyi.
There was a Jewish community in Bendorf: http://xn--jdische-gemeinden-22b.de/index.php/gemeinden/a-b/363-ben..., which included certain ancestors of mine and other relatives.
I have a match for town Korb ...
Henry Bauland ... butcher ... immigrated to New York
birth in Korb 24.Feb.1835
death in Brooklyn 11.Jan.1903
his profile > Anton Wilhelm Hermann Heinrich Bauland
^ That should be Henry (Haium) Bauland
Korb is near Stuttgart. There is some information about the community (in German) here: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/J%C3%BCdische_Gemeinde_Korb
(Not sure why it is in this thread, though...do you want to start a project for Korb?)
In general, there are very good records for Baden-Württemberg, many digitized, at the Hauptstaatsarchiv Stuttgart:
https://www2.landesarchiv-bw.de/ofs21/olf/struktur.php?bestand=5632...
However, I am having trouble finding records for Korb. I did not see an entry for Korb, nor for Möckmühl, and I did not find any Baulands in the records for Waibstadt or Heilbronn.
Update: I found records for Korb at FamilySearch: https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&pl...
