Black Forest Circle.
I do not fully understand the wikipedia information on this region accept that this area has to do with the Black Forest. I think the translation is not quite right. >>The Black Forest district was one of four districts of the country Wuerttemberg. It was 1818 and in 1924 formed dissolved. Capital of the district was Reutingen, which belongs to the region of Tuebingen. Function of the Black Forest is roughtly circular with a modern administratie district...Its territory is divided on the current government districts .... << It does appear that some Borodino colonists and/or their ancestors mention their city, town or village was in the "Schwarzwaldkreis" instead of using Tuebingen or any of the other district names..... See the various districts for more details.
See the individual towns for additional information. |
