Is it appropriate to ask for history information here?
Or where can I ask?
My ancestors were in Heilbronn in the 1300s, surname of MARKART and
MAERKLIN. I want to find out what Heilbronn was like then. What were the
houses made of? What kind of boats were on the Neckar? There are photos of
the Deutschof but are there other photos of buildings in this era? There is
a map here dating 1557 and I would love to know the buildings shown.
Is there anyplace that I can purchase a brochure or book on this time
period? Or links you can send me too.
It is better to have information in English but I do use Babelfish with
funny results but at least it helps concerning the subject.
This is a wonderful place to go exploring!
thank you,

I am afraid that we are not able to help you with this request.
However, on the Wikimedia Commons' sister project, Wikipedia, there is
a page called the Reference Desk, where various volunteers try to
answer questions such as yours:
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Reference_desk>. Instructions
for using the Reference Desk are on this page.
Though there is no guarantee that they can provide an answer, they are
often able. Please be specific in your question so that others can
better assist you! Sorry I couldn't be of more help; good luck in
finding the answer to your question.
