Francis/Frank Hitzner
born abt 1936 Germany
died 1908 Orillia, ON, Canada

I have found several family trees online with data about Francis Hitzner; none of them make a connection to records in Germany. My work can be found at WeRelate; including the following:
  • 19 Sep 1859 Roman Catholic Marriage in Oshawa, ON, Canada FamilySearch
    Groom: Francis Hitzner, born Dencam (Germany);
    son of William Hitzner and Mary Aforsperager.
    Bride: Mary Flynn, born Tipperary;
    dau of Rody Flynn and Helen Kelly.
  • 1901 Canada Census, Ontario, Simcoe, Medonte ArchivesCanada
    Heitzner Frank, M, Head, born 2-Feb-1836 Germany, age 65
  • 30 Aug 1908 Obituary in Orillia, ON, Canada
    PRICE'S CORNER - Death has removed an old settler in the person of Mr. F. Hitzner who died at the Orillia Hospital, on August 14th. Mr. Hitzner was born at Hamburg-on-the-Rhine, Germany, in 1836. He emigrated to Buffalo, U.S., when he was 18 years of age, remaining one year; afterwards removing to Mara, where he married Miss Mary Flynn, of Oshawa, in 1860.
An interesting birth/baptism in Germany is this one FamilySearch
  • Weisenheim am Sand, Pfalz, Bavaria
    Franziscus Hitzner
    Birth Date: 03 Feb 1835
    Christening: 04 Feb 1835
    Father: Wilhelmi Hitzner
    Mother: Annae Mariae Habersberger
* Where was Francis born? Hamburg-on-the-Rhine is not a real place. Dencam is not a real place; but perhaps it refers to Landkreis Bad Dürkheim? Weisenheim am Sand is located within Landkreis Bad Dürkheim.
* When was Francis born? Canada Census returns are not known for the accuracy; earlier census returns do not include birthdate.
* Mother's maiden name? In German records; her surname is spelled Happersgerger, Habersperger, Haggersberger, Hapersberger, Habersberger - is Aforsperager really so different?

I searched the internet for other prior work on this family in Germany; but found nothing; so I created Geneanet.org

Prior work may have helped to answer these questions:
  • 1. Do any records exist in Germany that confirm Francis left for North America?
  • 2. Do any records exist in Germany that indicate Francis either married or died in Germany and I need to find another connection?

OK, I get it:

I was talking about the Franciscus from your other post:
son of Georgii & Annae Mariae.

sorry for the confusion.

I see now that the census dates are 1835-36.

I will look for his arrival

I found the original database here:

No images to see who Franz Hitschler might be travelling with.
