Notes for Johann Claas
Source: Records of St. Maximin Catholic Church in Klotten
His name was also spelled Claasen. Johann lived in Stiltzhausen where he was a hofmann (overseer) from about 1744 to 1772. Johann and Anna Katharine may have been married in Martendahl. Johann Claas and Sophie Jungclas required a dispensation to marry for grade 3 affinity, a situation that would have resulted if Sophie and Anna Katharine were 2nd cousins or if Johann and Sophie were second cousins. Four of Johann’s children died in March 1771.
Johann was a baptismal sponsor in 1740 for Johann, son of Peter Laubach and Maria Deusen of Villa Sommet. He may have been a second cousin of the child.
