Klein Frankreichvanished community0.000000, -000.000000The Klein Franreich Community was one of the original communities at the time Fredericksburg was founded. The community was settled in the late 1840's to early 1850's, as each family that came over prior to 1847 was issued ten (10) acres to farm, and the Klein Frankreich area was included in this land grant.S.
