Other Information:
1. In Wulbrig Grotheer's wedding record in the Lutheran church in Scharmbeck, her father's name is given as Dierk Grooteheer, Einwohner from Nedderendermoor. In her death record in the Lutheran church in Worpswede, her parents are stated as Dierk Gerken, cottager, and Anne nee Schröder from Nedderendermoor.
2. Bernd Salewski wrote that in the Osterholz-Scharmbeck area the youngest son inherited the property of the father, and not the oldest!
3. The other Hinrich Grotheer (I call him No. 2) with a wife named Beke Schmonsees (I call her No. 2) was the oldest son of Harm Grotheer (born 15/9/1743). Hinrich Grotheer No.2 (born 16/12/1766) married Beke Schmonsees No. 2 (born 8/9/1765; daughter of the Halbbauer Johann Schmonsees from Neu St. Juergen) on the 25/6/1790. He died on the 3/2/1814 and she died on the 18/8/1829. Beke Schmonsees No. 2 had a brother named Dierk who was born on the 13/1/1770 and died on the 30/1/1815.
Other children from the two families Hinrich Grotheer and Beke Schmonsees, which are difficult to distribute, are:
Anne; born 28/3/1787 in Neu.St. Juergen; married Hinrich Tietjen on the 3/11/1815 in Worpswede.
Gretje; born 7/6/1790 in Neu St. Juergen; she married Hinrich Grotheer on the 15/11/1816.
Johan; born 26/1/1794 in Neu St. Juergen. The godfather Dierk Schmonsees was a brother of Beke Schmonsees No. 2! (from Franz Stelljes' book) Hence this Johan Grotheer he is probably a son of Hinrich Grotheer No. 2.
