Family tree
1415638 is part of the Bossard Family Tree from the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The family name is derived from the Old German "buosi" (good) and "hart" (hard). 1415638 is part of the larger Bossard Line which traces back to 1627 when the first known ancestor, Johann Adam Bossart, was born. The original line migrated from the Allgäu region of Bavaria and eventually settled in Luxembourg. This particular line of the family tree is now connected to many far-reaching branches in Austria, Germany, the US, Canada, France and Belgium. 1415638 belongs to the first group of family members known to have migrated to the US in the 1880s, settling primarily in Pennsylvania and Ohio. Each generation since has continued to expand, developing into the large and successful family tree seen today.
