FAMILY ORIGINS

Herblingen is a tiny village that had 56 houses and a population of around 250 people in 1800. Every man in the village was a farmer. The current population is 207 people. Herblingen is part of the community Fremdingen, which has 2,000 people in 12 villages. According to information at the Fremdingen website, the area has been populated since the Stone Age. A nearby river (Mauch) offered a water source, the deep forests offered timber, game, and fruits, and the soil was suitable for cattle breeding and agriculture. Buhlingen is three minutes west of Herblingen (by car).
