The oldest known Patscheider in our direct line was Claus Patscheider, a farmer at Patscheyd-Farm. Most of today's Patscheiders can likely trace their ancestry back to him. Please see my list of Claus Patscheider's descendants.

 

Between 1300-1500, the Patscheiders migrated to the valleys of the Tyrolean Alps during the Frankish-Alemanic settlement wave and settled in the Reschen Pass and adjacent high valleys.

 

It is widely accepted that the Bavarian-Franconian immigrants established Patscheidthof in the Langtaufer Valley around the same time as the neighboring Gschwell, Grueb, and Wies farmsteads, all of which can be linked to Patscheider lineage.

 

In his book "From the Upper Rhine to the Adige Spring Region", Dr. Richard Patscheider provides detailed explanations about the various family clans of the von Patscheidt family, which were likely interrelated during that period.
