Gesche Lüninghausen<br />

Only three baptismal records were found for the children of Bohlke and Becke Lüninghausen.<br />

Conrad (* abiut January 1779) might be only one child which was baptized elsewhere, so that<br />

the Wilstedt (may be as well the Otterstedt) parish registers should be checked for more<br />

children born between 1773 and 1785.<br />

Grasberg burial register (21/1797)<br />

+ 24.11.1797, buried: 29.11.1797<br />

Johann Lüninghusen<br />

legitimate son of Bohlke Lüninghusen in Rautendorf<br />

25 years, 4 months, less 5 days old, buried with sermon<br />

remark: “als er seines Herrn Herde von Willstedt hohlen sollte, ungleichlicher Weise in<br />

eine Moorgrube geworfen, und derein ersticket“ (was thrown by accident into a moor<br />

depression/pool and suffocated/drawn therein as he want to get the herd of his master<br />

from Wilstedt) „er war ein vortreflicher Jüngling [...] und sein Wandel möge nur der<br />

Wandel aller Jünglinge sein“ (he was an excellent youngling [...] and his moral conduct<br />

should be the moral conduct of all younglings)<br />

Obviously Johann fell into the moor by accident, probably pushed by the herd (cattle?).<br />

Surely a tragic accident for the family!<br />

I couldn´t read all the special characteristics the Grasberg record keeper had added for Johann<br />

Lüninghausen fast enough, because the entry was a badly microfilmed and because I wanted<br />

to save time for your family research. But the entry was only difficult to read and not<br />

unreadable, so if you like, I can decipher Johann´s special characteristics compelete in the<br />

future.<br />

Grasberg burial register (25/1804)<br />

+ 10.10.1804, buried: 13.10.1804<br />

Bohlke Lüninghausen sen.<br />

husband and Altvater (retired farmer) in Rautendorf<br />

63 years, 4 months old, died of […], buried with sermon<br />

The fact that Bohlke was called Bohlke Lüninghausen Sen. (Sr.) might be a hint for the fact<br />

that there was a yet unknown son Bohlke.<br />

Grasberg burial register (18/1810)<br />

+ 02.06.1810, 11 p.m., buried: 06.06.1810<br />
