Born: about 1688 in Niederkorn, Esch-Sur-Alzette,Luxembourg
Marriage: about 1701 in Niederkorn, Esch-Sur-Alzette, Luxembourg Anna Margaretha Erpeling
Children: (1) (all that I have records for) Maria Regina Reine Ungeschickt (Souvignier) 1708–1781 • L2KD-5P5
Death: unknown Buried: unknown
Note: I wish that I knew more, but I did not even know that I had an ancestor with the surname Ungeschickt until I turned 68. I knew about my other Luxembourger ancestors: Palen, Pletschette, etc…
I never knew who my French ancestors were until a few years ago. I am hitting dead ends, because there are very little records available for the 1600’s in Luxembourg.Besides the fact, that I can hardly read their writing and don’t understand the languages.

1980 Trip to Europe with my parents Louis and Jean (Linderman) Mancill, and my husband Richard Fallin
I wish that I had known about my 4th. great grandmother back then in 1980, because I could have looked up where they lived. I knew about my Palen ancestors being from Luxembourg, but I had no idea where in Luxembourg. And…I knew nothing about my Souvignier ancestors from Luxembourg. I did not have the information yet, that I even was related to the Souvignier family.

The history of Luxembourg is considered to begin in 963, when count Siegfried acquired a rocky promontory and its Roman-era fortifications known as Lucilinburhuc, “little castle”, and the surrounding area from the Imperial Abbey of St. Maximin in nearby Trier. Siegfried’s descendants increased their territory through marriage, war and vassal relations.
