Hello everyone
I am so thrilled to read this. Thank you so very much.And thank you so much for sharing.
I have discovered that Hinrich Christian Wendt marries a Anna Dorthea Johann - daughter of Johann Christian Johann - in Fahrenberg on the 28 of October 1773.
They get the following children
Maria Louise Wendt 28 dez 1774
Johan Chr. Fr. Wendt 17. oct. 1776
(Hinrich) Chr. Wendt - (my forfather) 28.2.1778 - bapt. 2 mar 1778 - Bremervörde. D. 28.6.1862 Fensmark, Tybjerg, Præstö, DK
Casper Fr. Wendt 1783 - bpt. 15 jun 1783 Hurum, Norway.
(Please also see link below to a Johan Henricsen Wendt that could be a son to Sophia Cordes?)
In the Norwegian and Danish sources Christian Wendt goes under the name of Christian Petersen Wendt. I do not know why.
I just know that Chr. Wendt gets a son Peter Wendt on the 8 of june 1800 who travels with his farther to Denmark to found the glasswork in Fensmark.
We know that PWs sons Johann Jürgen and allegedly Christian were taken into foster care by a merchant and learned the glassblowing trade aswell. Johan Jürgen 1776-1844 stayed as you know in Norway.
I would be very happy if you would care to take a closer look at page 234 on the top right from Bremervörde, as I believe that this is indeed Christian Wendt. If you would help me to say what it says, I would be greatful. I have asked a genealogist for help, Claudia Stock, she confirms that this is a Wendt, and not a Mindt as it says. So I believe I have solved a puzzle thanks to you. Once again thank you.
