one of our great-great-great grandmothers (paternal side)

  Daughter? Maria Isele* (-4G) born Feb. 1820 at Grafenhausen, Bonndorf, Waldshut, Baden
  Married to Josef Isele* (-5G) on 15 Feb., 1821 in Brenden, Waldshut, Baden
  Died before 15 Oct. 1840

  The surname "Haefele"
  The given name "Magdalena"
  Included on the Isele-Haefele Chart
  Listed on the Grafenhausen page

The asterisk marks my direct-line ancestors. The (-5G), etc., after the names indicate the number of generations before Erven Thoma

Correct spelling of surname is difficult to determine due to old German script and condition of the original document and microfilm, but assumption was made on the basis of LDS Family History database and a living person with the same family name.

Magdalena is mentioned (together with her husband) on the marriage record of her daughter with Andreas Jäger on 15 Oct. 1840 at the catholic church in Grafenhausen, Bonndorf, in the county of Waldshut, Baden. However Magdalena is deceased.

Her husband Joseph Isele was previously married. It seems that her daughter was married before her marriage, but I need to do more research and get translations of documents.

The marriage record of a Joseph Isele marrying Maria Anna Haefele on 13 Nov. 1817 in Grafenhausen is on LDS film 0938924.

There is an IGI record of a Josef Isele marrying a Magdalena Preisser on 7 May 1818 at the catholic church in Grafenhausen, Bonndorf, Waldshut, Baden.  Is this the same marriage?  Is there a mistake in the data entry for the online version of IGI?  One needs to examine the microfilm:  batch M950323, source call 0938924 covering years 1805-1829.  Curiously, there is also an IGI record of a Magdalena Preisser marrying again in 1828 at the same church.
