The Early Imles

The Imle family was traced back to 1558, almost to the time of Martin Luther (1483-1546), by John Friedrich Karl Imle of Bonn-Rhein, Germany between 1924 and 1939. In 1949 John Friedrich translated his results into English and sent the materials to Ernest Paul Imle, grandson of Cristoph Frederick Imle, founder of the Clark County Imles. Ernest, who was living in Costa Rica at the time, sent the materials on to his brother John Frederick in San Antonio, Texas. John then transcribed the tree from longhand and prepared a graphical reproduction, which he distributed to his aunts and uncles in December 1949 and whose transcription is shown below.

There are several problems with this history. First, no primary sources are cited, though such sources were used in the construction. Presumably, this information is available in the information first sent to Ernest; however, this material has not yet been located. Second, many of the original given names for German residents have been converted to the English. Until such time as the original names can be determined, the names used on the chart are given here. A third problem is that the last name is not always given, and, since a number of variants were used prior to 1700, there is no assurance, in these cases, that the name used was that of the father, although this has been assumed here. Finally, the family names of the female members of the family are not given before about the year 1700. The common practice was to not record a woman’s family name on a record of marriage.

If you know of the whereabouts and/or availability of the supporting information supposedly sent to Ernest Paul Imle by John Friedrich Imle of Bonn, please let me know.
