The Frison family migrated from the Palatinate in Germany to Alsace, France sometime between 1742 and 1760. The information on the family came from the film number 367519 for Maikammer, Germany. The family was Roman Catholic. Ludovicus Frison was a chirurgus, which translates to "surgeon." In a small town such as Scheibenhard, he would have most likely been a wound doctor. Maikammer is located in the Rhineland-Pfaltz province of Germany. The Naturpark Pfalzer Wald, located to the south and west of Maikammer, is a natural park with an area of 177,100 hectares. It is located in the southern part of the Rhineland-Palatinate. With a forest share of 76%, the Palatinate Forest is the largest contiguous forest in the Federal Republic of Germany and has an impressive stained sandstone landscape. To travel from Maikammer to Altenstadt, France (where the family migrated) one would have to go south through Edenkoben, Desheim, Essingen, and Laudau in Germany and Steinfeld, France. Driving from where the family lived in Germany to where Joannes Frison and Maria Weiland married, in Altenstadt in 1860, would take 40 minutes. The family likely spoke German, but because they moved to France, many of the records use their French names. Thus, Johannes Ludovicus Frison may have been documented as Jean Louis Frison. (Special note of thanks to Charles Sheridan, who provided a translation of the Maikammer records.)
