      Your supposition was correct. The father of the Johann Georg who married Maria Lenzin in 1738 was from Gersbach, not Grenzach. It was spelled with "p" rather than "b" which looked very much like a "z". It is the influence of the German-Swiss on the South Black Forest dialect. It is not uncommon for bach to be spelled as pach in Switzerland, but quite uncommon in the South Black Forest, and even less common in the rest of Germany. My great -grandmother, Anna Maria Minger, was born in Limpach, Switerzerland. In some ways the South Black Forest is more Swiss than German, with Basel being the dominant city. When people from the South Black Forest travel to other parts of Germany they are often thought to be from Switzerland because of their dialect.

      Michel Schwald married Anna (a name that looks something like Kuensslerin) of Gersbach on December 8, 1711, in Gersbach. The father of Michel was Bernhard (?) Schwald of, what appears to be, Kuernberg. The father of Anna was Hans (?) of Gersbach.

      Michel's and Anna's children were:

      1. Katharina, born in Gersbach in September, 1712.
      2. Johann Bernhard (?), born in Gersbach on August 31, 1713.
      3. Hanss Jerg, born in Gersbach on April 24, 1715.
      4. Martin, born in Gersbach August 3, 1716.
      5. Anna, born in Gersbach on January 23, 1719.
      6. Andreas, born in Gersbach on July 17, 1720.
      7. Catharina, born in Gersbach. ( I failed to get the date of birth but I believe it was in 1723.)
      8. Johann Jacob, born in Gersbach January 17, 1726.

      Subject: Michael Schwald/Anna Knuesslerin family

      Michael Schwald was born in Neuenweg on July 25,1685, to Bernhard Schwald and Katharina Blaitnerin.
      He married Anna Knuesslerin of Gersbach in Gersbach on December 8, 1711 (he was shown as Michel). Their children were:

      1. Katharina b.In September 1712 in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      2. Johann Bernhard b. August 21, 1713, in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      3. Hanss Jerg b. April 24, 1715 in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      4. Martin b. August 3, 1716, in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      5. Anna b. January 23, 1719, in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      6. Andreas b. July 17, 1720, in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      7. Catharina b. in 1723 in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)
      8. Johann Jacob January 17, 1726, in Gersbach (The father was shown as Michel.)

      Notes: I believe that you should update your website to incorporate this additional information The name Blaitnerin was spelled every which way--Bleutnerin, Blautnerin, etc., but it was almost surely not Bleickner. I suggest that you use the Blaitnerin spelling, the name shown quite clearly on Michael's birth record 1685.
      The name Knuesslerin is an usual name and is quite difficult to read. However, on the birth record of Katharina in 1712 it is clearly spelled Knuesslerin.

      1. Maria b. September 28, 1678, in Neuenweg to Bernhard Schwald and Catharina Bleutnerin. Maria died on May 5, 1679.
