Dienst Anna Elisabeth [Female] b. ABT 1660 Wunderthausen
She and her brother Johannes divided the property that had belonged to Linde house ("beim Wasser"). She resided in what became Altehäusers, while he kept Linde.
Origin unknown. Married into Weymers house in Wunderthausen.
She was a twin, but it seems likely that both died young. Their only female godparent was named Catherine, so one the babies was no doubt given that name.
Born in Schmeds house, took over Gundermanns by marriage. It was long believed that he was the son of Gundermann Spies, but expert opinion is that he was in fact the son of Valentin Spies and an unnamed mother.
It is unknown where he came from or even the composition of his offspring. He was the tenant/taxpayer in the house which came to be known as "Gundermanns" in Wunderthausen.
Tenant in Grosse Haus. Known as the Elder (vis a vis his son Johannes).
Born in Gundermanns Haus in Wunderthausen. A rare record from the time reports that he was strangled to death by a Henrich Womelsdorf, who fled to the Rhineland.
Became the tenant in Wetzels through marriage.
Known as "der Kleine", more or less "the younger" vis a vis his father.
Born in Schmeds house. First tenant in Beckers house, Wunderthausen, which was apparently built in 1697. It probably contained a baking-house. The Count strictly controlled the number of fireplaces in each village, allocating a certain number of households to each baking-house. Records show that he died in the small village of Langewiese north and east of Wunderthausen. I don't know of any children who lived there, so this is unusual.
