Notizen zu dieser Person
Because of his anabaptist faith, Hans, with his brother Melchior, was sent as an oarsman to the Venetian galleys. On March 16, 1671 they were taken in chains to Thun where they were sent by boat to Brienz. The rest of the trip went overland to Bergamo where they were turned over to the Venetian officials. Normally, nobody did survice, but they did. At the end of 1873 they are back in Bern askingfor their inheritance . They did not get it. In 1673 they were back in Bern. While imprisoned for a considerable time in the "Waisenhaus" (Orphanage) in Bern, before being taken away as a galley slave, Hans had access to the "Turmbücher" (prison records) and compiled a list of all those who were executed for their faith in Bern, 40 people in all. (Delbert L. Gratz: Bernese Anabaptists, The Mennonite Historical Society, Goshen, IN, 1953). ----Forced to leave Switzerland because of religious beliefs, in 1714.

Der Schwerpunkt meiner Forschung liegt in der West-Pfalz (Raum Zweibrücken, Pirmasens, Waldfischbach, Trippstadt). Geschichtlich interessieren mich besonders die Einwanderung in diesen Raum ab dem 17. Jahrhundert und die Berufsgruppen der Müller und Förster.
