Notes for Jakob Heucher
Source: Records of St. Servatius Catholic Church in Landkern.
While he was married to Sophie Muennich, Jakob was an overseer of the Villa Beauweiler estate along with his brother Johann. He was also a synodalis in the church. Children of his died on March 13 and April 1, 1757 and on February 22 and March 25, 1762.
The church record of his marriage to Sophie Muennich said that his father was Nikolaus Heucher, villicus (overseer) in Beauweiler. The church record of his marriage to Katharine Lauxen called him Jakob Heucher synodalis but did not mention that he was a widower.
Jakob was a baptismal sponsor in 1743 for Maria Elisabeth, the daughter of Johann Anton Gilles and Maria Elisabeth Kayser. Johann Anton Gilles may have been Jakob’s wife Sophie Muennich’s half-brother.
Jakob and Katharine had nine children.
Notes for Sophie (Spouse 1)
Source: Records of St. Servatius Catholic Church in Landkern.
When Sophie Muennich married Jakob Heucher in 1732, her late husband Nikolaus Gilles was described as villicus (overseer) of Villa Beauweiler.
Sophie may have been the daughter of Peter Muennich and Anna Maria of Esperhof.
The baptismal sponsors for her daughter Maria Elisabeth in 1738 were Johann Anton Gilles, possibly Sophie’s half-brother, and his wife Maria Elisabeth Kayser of Esperhof. In turn, Sophie’s husband Jakob Heucher was a baptismal sponsor in 1743 for Johann Anton Gilles’ and Maria Elisabeth Kayser’s daughter Maria Elisabeth.
Notes for Katharine (Spouse 2)
She was a baptismal sponsor in 1787 for her granddaughter, Katharine Heucher, daughter of Anton Heucher and Sophie Gilles of Landkern.
