I have some additional information on this and Wilhelm Klinger. He is in the 1850 Census as “Clinger” in Guadelupe County. Wersdoerfer is also spelled Werserfer in places like the New Braunfels founding fathers monument. I don’t live in Texas either & have had to rely on relatives there for much of my information. I am expecting to receive from one of them a court record (or notes about it – I am not sure). any day now. Mrs. Klinger (Dorothea) was my Great Great Grandmother.
