Hi Diana,

I am helping my cousin Jason on this one his grandmother was married to John Stenger, John and his brother Joseph were from Ajkarendek and then on to NJ.

Joseph as you can see was married to Paul Wurmbrandts wife's sister.

I hope this information helped you. Do you have anything on Paul going back.

John

Hello John,

Well, I hope this helps. Paul's father was Lawrence(Laurinc). He had 7 brothers. Most of them had moved away and lost contact. However, two brothers stayed. Unfortunately, I don't know their names. But I do have their children's names. 1st brother had one son named John who had a son named Paul who had a son named Frank. 2nd brother had 2 daughters and 2 sons: Mary, Katie, Lawrence, and Paul.

Now Paul's father had three sons: Michael, Lawrence, and Paul. Michael had a son named Joseph.

There is a story about how the Wurmbrandt family came to Hungary. It was said that we are part of the Von Wurmbrand line. When one of the sons feel in love with a common girl, he was disowned and had to flee to Hungary from Austria. When he came to Hungary the letter t was added to make the spelling Wurmbrandt.

Please let me know if you or Jason find more information.

Diana,

Yes I have attached this pdf from my file hope it helps. Laurinc married Klara Marhoffer. Her sister was married to Marton Ament. They had a daugher Marianna Ament whom Paul married. She was his first cousin.

You can also see the names of Pauls two brothers that we know of in this list.

My cousin Jason is in the stenger line. His grandfather was Janos/John the brother of the Joseph Stenger you see in this list.

He is in the military in Korea and can not acess this forum so I do it for him.

John

I am so excited to hear from a cousin(?) on the Wurmbrandt side. Both my grandparents- John Wurmbrandt and Mary Wurmbrandt were born and raised in Ajkarendek. My grandmother's maiden name was Pek. I would be so excited to share with you what I know.

Hello Diana!

I am very happy to read your answer. (Sorry, but I don't speak English so good.) Well, I quest after the story of my family, because my grandfather, Frank Wurmbrandt told me a story about how the Wurmbrandt family came to Hungary. You wrote this story here, in Radixforum too. („It was said that we are part of the Von Wurmbrand line. When one of the sons feel in love with a common girl, he was disowned and had to flee to Hungary from Austria. When he came to Hungary the letter t was added to make the spelling Wurmbrandt.”) In my opinion, you and my father (Anthony) are 4. cousins, because your great grandfather Paul Wurmbrandt and my father's great grandfather John Wurmbrandt were cousins. Paul's father was Lawrence and Lawrence's brother was John's father. Unfortunately, I don't know his name. But Lawrence's and Jonh's father's father is our ancestor.
About our line: John had a son named Paul Wurmbrandt, and a daughter named Mary Wurmbrandt. Paul's wife was Anna Mereider. They had a daughter named Theresa and a son named Frank. Frank's wife was Mary Meinczinger. They have three children: Theresa, Anthony and Leslie. I am Andras, my father is Anthony. We can write e-mail too, my e-mail address: andras.wurmbrandt -a-t- gmail.com -d-o-t-

Hello Andras,
Thank you for your email. Your message was written wonderfully in English, which makes me wonder if this site translates for us( or you are much better at English then you think). I can not read, write or speak Hungarian or German at all! Which is why I didn't want to email you yet.

I am going to see my grandmother this weekend and have her read over what you have posted. I myself have recongized the Meinczinger name. So she may have more information for me.

Did you know that there is a Wurmbrand castle in Austria? It is now a hotel. I will try to find it's name for you. My family had seen an article in a paper once that said that there was a curse on the castle. Any male Wurmbrandt who enter would die. Unfortunately, I don't know why that would be the case. They read this article when my father was still a boy and so I don't know who printed it and when it was printed.

Hello Diana,

Thank you for your email. This site does not translate for us, I write English. (Maybe, I'm better at English then I think :) ). You can write email.

Did you meet your grandmother?

It is very interesting what you wrote about the castle and the curse. I don't know where is this castle, but I found an Austrian homepage about Von Wurmbrand-Stuppach family (http://www.von-wurmbrand-stuppach.com). They had plenty of castle in Austria, for example in Steyersberg. You can find pictures about these castles on the page. Wurmbrand-Stuppach is an old noble family of Austria. The Counts and Princes of Wurmbrand-Stuppach were highly decorated advisors to the Habsburg Emperors. You can find information about this family on this site in English: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wurmbrand-Stuppach. And you can find the origin of the name in the Wurmbrand Saga too.
Nowadays, the family has a marketing company.

The question: is there connection between Wurmbrand-Stuppach family and our family? Is the story true about the Wurmbrand son who feel in love with a common girl, and had to flee to Hungary from Austria?

aworm82: Re: Paul Wurmbrandt
I know that this kind of late my last name is also Wurmbrand and I'm of Jewish Romanian descent... I was wondering how I fit into this family if it helps I'm probably related to Richard Wurmbrand who was born a Romanian but other than that I don't know much about the family tree,
