Comments This is a very interesting entry. It describes the life of Cantor Rau and associates him with the Grammer/Latin School where Friedrich Weidig was Rector. Weidig was a 'martry son of Butzbach in the Fight for Democracy'. It also suggests that these were likely the teachers of the Knabenschuh children-say Johann Ernst, Christian [III], and maybe Maria Sophia ; & the young Heinrich. Search the Beuern K.B. for his birth ; & Bobenhausen for births of his children c1792 Ü
