There is a large abbey in the town that would’ve existed during the time that Anna Barbara Holtzappel lived there. Michelfeld is a very small town in the district of Swabisch-Hall, not close to any of the larger German cities. I tried to guess what kinds of things she would’ve eaten. I did a bit of research on the geography of the area and I even found a film that has some footage for the area where she lived: He was born a little farther south in Baden-Württemberg, near the black forest. She was born in Michelfeld Germany and must have met or had some sort of connection to people farther south like Johann Adam Ruppert, because they were married in Michelfeld.
