I was told at r/history to post this here for better sources:
Back in either 1291 or 1307 (several accounts vary on the specific date) 3 or 33 founders took the Rutli Oath (earlier known as the Oath in the Meadow of Gruth/Grutli). I would like to find a list of these founders. Also, in 1385, at the Battle of Lempach/Sempach, a few hundred Swiss stood against a few thousand Austrians, and won. I'd like a list of the Swiss killed at this battle as well. Several older texts mention such a list exists but I can't find it. The reason why I'm looking for these lists is because in my research into my families lineage, my family name is supposedly mentioned on these lists according to accounts dating back to the 18th century, but I would definitely like to verify. Also, any authentic, original texts on the early formation of the Swiss Confederacy and its history would be very much appreciated. Thank you!
If you want an English translation of the 1291 document, you can find it [here] (http://www.bundesbrief.org/history03.html). No mentioning of names, though.
If you would rather find out where exactly in Switzerland your name is from, it might be a better option to go to [this website] (http://www.hls-dhs-dss.ch/famn/?lg=e), punch in your surname, and it will show you the places of origin of people with your surname before 1800.
