The Key to Scientific Names

Dr Franz Kollmannsperger (b. 1907) German zoologist, ecologist, explorer in the Sahara 1953-1954 (subsp. Ammomanes deserti, syn. Bubo cinerascens).

From here we know b. 12. December 1907 Redingen. If correct here Franz Kollmannsperger (1907-1997).

At least according here he lived:

KOLLMANNSPERGER Franz, Studienrat, Stockenbruch 12, Saarbrücken 6

 

[PScofield]

Franz-Joseph Kollmansperger

Birth	12 Dec 1907 Redingen, Lothringen
Death	10 Apr 1997 Perl, Merzig-Wadern, Saarland, Germany

Father	Wilhelm Kollmansperger (1886-1946)
Mother	Maria Maiser (1886-1975)
Spouse	Thekla Bruegmann (1909-1992)

So I assume that makes him Bezirk Lothringenese. Which would be either Luxembourgish, French or German today...
