Notes for Johann Heinrich Marx
Source: Records of St. Martin and St. Severus Catholic Church in Muenstermaifeld.
His baptismal sponsors were Rev. Johann Heinrich Wirtz, a canon, and Apollonia, the daughter of [her mother’s sister Anna Maria Braun and] Johann Weckbecker of Naunheim.
He was a baptismal sponsor in 1714 for Johann Heinrich, the son of his half-sister Elisabeth Einig and Matthias Bingen of Muenstermaifeld, and in 1752 for his grandson Johann Heinrich, the son of Johann Marx and Susanna Suesterhenn of Metternich. At that time he was described as a “physicus”--a scientist.
He may have been a baptismal sponsor in 1725 for Maria Salome, the daughter of Johann Jacob Prum and Anna Maria Esch of Muenstermaifeld. He was a baptismal sponsor in 1733 for Johann Heinrich, the son of Michael Suesterhenn and Gertrud Baurman of Muenstermaifeld.
He was a synodalis in the Catholic church.

Her children’s baptismal registers and her death notice gave her first name as Maria rather than Katharine.
