From what I recall (it's been a few years since I researched this family extensively), most Obernai Weils were originally from Westhoffen.The theory is that my Jakob Weil (father of Rabbi Feis Weil b. ca. 1744) was a cousin to the other Weils in Obernai at that time (he appears to be descended from Baruch "le vieux" Weil of Westhoffen).By 1784, I am pretty sure Feis had moved to Saarwellingen.Would like to see your family tree.
