Regarding Johannes Peter Uber b. 1730, "Loetzenberen", there is interesting information on the town named Lötzbeuren at the following site:
http://www.loetzbeuren.de/html/chronik.html
Below is a babelfish German>English translation of the first part of the page:
******************
Changes of name in the course of the years
1144 Lorzebura
1195 Loraibure (in the abbey Mettlach)
1200 Lorzebura (possession confirmation Heinrich VI)
1360 Lorcibura (goods listing of the abbey Mettlach)
1475 Lozeburen (chapel possessed)
1489 Loitzburen (Mark count Christov von Baden)
1500 Lorentzburen (Pfarrbezirk Enkirch; Reformation)
1619 Loetzbeere (Strecius writes in such a way on the gravestones)
1705 Leutzbeuren (French map)
1780 Loetzbaeuern (teacher Sauerbay)
1800 Litzenbeuren (Frenchman time, administrative district Mont Royal)
********************
If you munge the last two versions together, it looks close to Loetzenberen to me...
The coordinates are:
49°56'11.40"N
7°13'14.28"E
(Rheinland-Pfalz)
There is also Leuzenbronn:
49°22'26.41"N
10° 7'43.56"E
(Bayern [Bavaria], near Baden-Württemberg border)
