Hallo Liste,
I'm searching for help in my research of the BIE DER HAEKE (*) family of
Neuenkirchen. This is what I know.
Henrich Rolf bi der haeke (Rohlmann) emigrated from Neuenkirchen, bi der
haeke farm, in 1834. He was the owner of the farm and the only surviving son
of Joannes Henricus Rollmann and Catharina Margaretha Henkenberens.
Joannes Henricus Rollmann was the oldest son of Joannes Gerharde Bie der
Haeke conductis Rohlmann natus Wenstrup and Maria Elizabeth Bie der Haeke.
and was born in 1750. I assume Joannes Gerhardes Wenstrup gained ownership
of the Bie der Haeke farm through his marriage with Maria Elizabeth Bie der
Haeke.
Maria Elizabeth Bie der Haeke is the only child of Joannes Henricus Bie der
Haeke and Maria Adelheidis Westendorf (married 13 Oct 1721) and was born in
1723.
My research has found three possible Joannes Henricus Bie der Haekes' for
this marriage.
The first, Joan Hen Bie der Haeke son of Lueke Bie der Haeke (**) and
Catherina Polmann or Pohlmann (married 1688) born in 1694.
The second, Joan Hen Bie der Haeke son of Taupke Bie der Haeke and Christina
Schurman or Schierman (married in 1686) born 1693 along with a twin sister
Anna Catherina.
The Third, Joan Hen son of Henricus Bie der Haeke and Anna Walage or Wahlage
(married 1666) born in 1681.
* The spelling of BIE DER HAEKE is found in many different ways: Bider Hake,
biy der hacke etc......
** The marriage record for Lueke shows his last name as Pieper but all other
records found list his last name as Bie der Haeke.
I'm trying to find the ownership line of the farm which should also be the
line of Joan Hen. Any help is greatly appreciated and I'm happy to share all
I know of this family.
Ciao,
Vince Rollman
