BIELSTEIN "Wandermusikanten von Salzgitter" Buch

Superb sleuthing Ruth!!

Thank you so much :-))
I am surprised they paid tax! I think I need to learn under what conditions they were liable for tax. Was it a tax on earnings or a tax for living in the town.

I already have an address of Andreas Bielstein and his wife Wilhelmine Melosine Gunther (b 13/7/1813 Salzgitter, d 30/1/1867 Hull) from the Salzgitter 1852 Court Records, then they next appear in England 1862 running a music school. Living with them in England are several young German apprentices and also a musician Henry Ehlers (22) and THAT's the man I'm also trying to trace. How does he link up with my gt.gt. grandmother Sophie Christine Hedwig Ehlers and musician (known in England as) Conrad Ehlers, son-in- law of Andreas Bielstein.

Much obliged.
