Knonau ZH - marriage - 1616 - Urmi & Grob - Felix & Adelheit

Kent Gardiner

Sixth document:

In some BVs Felix is a Widertuffer. I can't find the meaning of the word? Can you help?

BTW I am related to Adelheit Grob via the miller Heinrich Grob b 1605.

1616: Felix Urmj uß der Baregg / Adelheita Grobin zu Knonouw, die 11 Februarij.

See D) Felix Urmi oo 1616 Adelheid Grob: Felix is mentioned several times as Widertüffer = Wiedertäufer = Anabaptist. On the forum post there is a link to documents on his case in the catalogue of the Zürich State Archive … unfortunately nothing online - one would have to pay the archive a visit.

https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Your summaries are always excellent, to the point and clear. Thanks, I looked everywhere for the definition of Widertüffer to no avail. Thanks for the definition, He is not listed in the Anabaptists in Knonau 1657. He, most likely, died before then.

The document at State Archive covers 1640 - 1679: will most likely incude issues with his heirs as well.

Do you have a link to Anabaptists in Knonau?

Kent Gardiner

https://community.familysearch.org/en/profile/WSeelentag Yes here is the link. The year is 1657. The place Knonau.
