My Bavarian ancestors came from the Ichenhausen area which is known as Swabia and spoke a particular dialect of German called Swabian.
The ancestry report uses 'Ahnentafel' numbering. This means that the numbers for a person's parents will be twice as large as that person's number. For example, if a woman's number is 15, her father will be number 30, and her mother will be 31. Her child will be number 7.
