Notes for Wilhelm Christopher Jochim Koch
Source: Records of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Pokrent, Mecklenburg.
His baptismal sponsors were Christopher Schipmann, Jochen Hinrich Lichtenberg, ... Lichtenberg, and ... Prentzlin.
His marriage record gave his name as Jochen Wilhelm Koch and his wife’s residence as Alten Pokrent.
His name was given as Johann Wilhelm and his residence was listed as Niendorf when his son Johann Ludwig was baptized in 1786. When Johann Ludwig died in 1856, his father’s residence was listed as Neuendorf.
His death notice described him as Wilhelm Koch of Niendorf, 72 years old.
Notes for Catharina Elisabeth (Spouse 1)
Source: Records of the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Pokrent.
She was most likely the daughter of Jochim Daniel Prentzlien and Sophia Lucia Ehlers. However the baptismal records were not microfilmed for June 1755 through May 1756. The other possibility is that she was the daughter of Detloff Jochen Prentzlien, a landlord in Alt Pokrent, and his wife, Lucie Greth Marie Demckert. However the latter couple were not married until 1759 and no one named Catharina Elisabeth Prentzlien is in the baptismal record after or around that date. Jochim Daniel and Detloff Jochen were both the sons of Jochim Prentzlien.

Her marriage record said she was from Alt Pokrent.

When she died she was described as Elisabeth Koch, the wife of Wilhelm Koch of Schlagfort. Schlagfort was part of the area served by the church in Pokrent but does not appear on current maps. Her age was given as 59 years.
