Meyer/ Ahrens Taufzeugen in Nahrendorf

Were continuing on  with the Meyer,  Ahrens Family Tree  History Mini Series.- Second Marriage


Yesterday I published the post on Catharine Dorothea Ahrens the second wife with Juergen Friedrich Meyer [geb 1814] To save space and time I will say that all their births  were at Röthen and  they were all baptized at Nahrendorf.  Above is a  copy of the document of the Meyer / Ahrens  Family History tree  from the Nahrendorf church that you can actually read.  I am not sure why it was printed out so faint. So, My son came to my rescue and separated the pages into smaller parts and most of all, he  made them so we could read  them. Today I 'm just interested in the Gevattern or Taufzeugen for each child. Eventually more comments about the person will happen.

Unexpected; Anticipation with Family History Surnames from the Jonas tree; from the Hauschild in Butteris Family tree

Unexpected; Anticipation
What do I mean by that title? That one family history tree surname of yours connects to another unrelated ancestral tree. If it connects its related? And it is the name of our game in genealogical name pursuit.

Let me explain_ If I have Members of the Jonas tree with surnames Banit, Quast, Stehr, Luhman, Lohman, Meyer, Borschatz as seen here [http://www.jonas-online.de/genealogy/jonas/names1.htm#Behnken] and I am doing a refresh on the Behmken/Meyer tree at Sauk co. Wi, and was reviewing other related trees to their data at Goodhue county, Minnesota. I am not expecting to find a Hauschild that connects to the Davenport in say Pierce county, Wisconsin. It doesn't hurt to browse the name, since the location is close. [ I don't actually recall the exact area anyway.] But sometimes luck runs that way and it happens. Hadn't I found once that the Michel's name led to Stream and that led me to my own area of Greene and Calhhoun couty with the surname Stream. It came to nothing that connected. I suppose it was a waste of time. It's just at that time, I knew next to nothing about my other Mich[a]els tree.


It could have happened today as I was reviewing some surnames and trees that tie to them. It's that I just didn't want to pursue it. At the time of my investigation, I doubt I was saving them to my trees. I just didn't want to take the time to check further. I would say that their is a six chance out of nine, it goes further. Which is a reminder to myself that if your investigating anything you should document your journey. If this pops up again, I can dig out my reminder file and see oh yes, I found this here and here on the Hauschild / Davenport for the Butteriss Family tree.

My tree does seem like a mess, and I am not proud of them.
Now I save everything I am interested in for later investigation. A couple of broad working trees are for just that. Ohhh I'll tidy them up one of these days. Just not today.

I have been in a little reality slump that results from paying attention to the world around me.
I have a little formula for depression due to the world events. It is simply to emerse myself into the surnames of my genealogical interests. I just refresh myself with the information. And well I do have to refresh the old memory. Well, Just jog the brain a little. While I am doing so, I can see at Ancestry just what is new. Etc.

I don't go through all of them, cause I have quite a few trees.
Anyway, I noticed the name Hauschild, Hauschildt and the memory of my pursuit of it with the name Davenport and my dear Mary Butteris.

See how it goes.

I just happen to reflect that sooner or later, folks while your browsing one tree, it just might run into your other tree, which you thought was entirely unrelated. [ except of course for your own self which joins the tree too]

Ventschau - Genealogy -Schenk, Rieckens, Bergman

Did you see Maria Elisabeth Bergmann born 28.Dec.1795?. She ties to Schoop, Schroeder, Rickens, Schenk, Michels, Meyer, Indirectly to Luhmann from Meyer and on and on in the Wendland area and usa. probably in a circle when all is said and done!

I did have a BERGMAN mentioned in one of my church records in regards to my Schultz Meyer family at Neetzendorf. I do so wish I knew more about that family..

Wow. Huh? I can't count all the times I see the villages Boitze, Ahndorf or Fladen, all areas of Dahlenburg mentioned. Did she mention Neetzendorf the home of our Schultze and Meyer. Some people were employed in Boitze, and others lived there, etc. There has to be connections to Nahrendorf, Nüdlitz, Oldendorf, Ahndorf, Buendorf, Boitze und Barscamp, Other villages of Tosterglope. Some areas of Bleckede going to Neetze and up into the Luneburg church district.

In fact to stretch the wow factor, I know our area extends to Mecklenburg,down and over to [alt] Garge, Schutschur, Neuhaus, and further to Hitzacker area, and Danneberg.

I am so glad I have dealt with colonists rather than just one or two families and their branches. I would never have known the extent of the blood lines. And much more to know. How amazing life is!

Note of Sources:
The tree attachment is from Gloria Hoerschelmann/Petesch at ancestry.com. She works on her genealogy mostly during the summer. The leaves began turning as I started to examine Ahrens and my Michels. Michaels. - aka Millman. You can contact her at ancestry or give me a comment and I will get to her.

As they say, you only have to begin.

QUESTIONS, JUST ASK.!

Genealogy - Surnames of Ahrens, Michels, Genzel, Mueller, Grummet

Subject:The little information below is from a postal letter sent to me and then stored in email. It was sent from the volunteer researcher of the Archives of Dahlenburg / Nahrendorf. serving as responses to my Questions. And then at the bottom is a translation from one of those translators on line. This is mostly questions about the church document of Juergen Heinrich Wilhelm Meyer family.

Date: Sat, 14 Jun 2003 23:11:48 contained in the email it is stored into.

My Juergen Heinrich Wilhelm Meyer worked at Horn
at the time of his marriage in 1873.
"Horn" ist eine früher Adeliges Gut Zwischen Dahlenburg und Seedorf
( siehe Anlage)./
Horn "is in former times noble property between Dahlenburg and
sea-village (see plant). "Roethen" is a Foersterei with some houses
in the proximity of old village.

This where Juergen Friedrich worked as
Park Attendant [Address: Herrn Parkwärter Meyer,
Röthen bei der Göhrde,]
"Röthen" ist eine Försterei mit einigen Wohnhäusern in der
Nähe von Oldendorf. /
"Roethen" is a Foersterei with some houses

The word "Parochi" used in a marriage document.
"Parochi" ist die alte Bezeichnung für einend Pfarrbezirk, eine
Kirchengemeinde. /
"Parochi" is the old name for in-ends Pfarrbezirk,
a church municipality.

Heins was mentioned in a church document and was a god parent.
"Heinrich Wilhelm HEINS" ist sicherlich der Bruder der
Kindesmutter. Seine Taufe habe ich im Taufregister Nahrendorf nicht
gefunden. Er wird wie seine Schwester Maria Dorothea Heins in Kreutzen
geboren sein. /
Heinrich Wilhelm HEINS" is surely the brother of the
child nut/mother. I did not find its baptism in the baptismal
register Nahrendorf. It will be born like his sister
Maria Dorothea HEINS in Kreutzen. [I added in the Heins name for Maria]

Another god parent mentioned for one of Juergen Heinrich
Friedrich Wilhlem's children here.
