[Curiosita]

Tried to figure out where the couple Wiebke Catharina and her first husband Claus Behrend lived.
In 1843, when their first child was born, they lived in Österfeld. Baptism of "Herrmann Christian" took place in St. Annen nearby.
By the time of his confirmation (1864), they had moved to Lehe (adjacent to Lunden), as the 1860 census data reflects.

Of course, Herrmann Christian was the second (not first) child, still alive and staying with the family in 1860 (according to census), and it is not clear whether he is the "Claas Herrmann" mentioned after his father's death. As Wiebke Catharia has given birth to at least eight children, there might have been siblings that didn't survive.

This is what you get when you search http://www.akvz.de/index.html for "Joh (Adolph Herrmann) Sieweke". It reflects census data collected in Hemme, in 1835. The data indicates that Wiebke Catharina has already left the house at that time.

Name	Alter/Geburtsdatum	Tätigkeit	Status
Joh[ann] Herm[ann] Adolpf Sieweke	[1782]	Meister auf der Ziegelei (master at the brickyard)
Antje [Sieweke], geb. Barkhahn	[1787]		dessen Ehefrau (his wife)
Berend Hermann [Sieweke]	[1817]		ihr Kind (their child)
Anna Catharina Friedercka [Sieweke]	[1819]		ihr Kind (their child)
Antje [Sieweke]	[1827]		ihr Kind (their child)

She was servant in Hans Rolf Thomsens house in Hemme in 1835, great stuff, this AKVZ database.

Some background and maybe further documents:

E.g. here, on page 382, your ancestor "Christian (Philipp) Lohrmann" as well as an unspecified "Sieveke" (maybe a relative) seem to be registered in the same list of brickyard owners and masters (1850).


Laufende Nummer | (number) // Name und Wohnort der Ziegeleÿbesitzer | (name and place of residence of brickyard owner) // Name und Wohnort der Ziegeleÿmeister | (name and place of residence of brickyard master) // Zahl der Arbeiter | (number of workers)

70. // Bartels b[ei] Carolinenkoog // Chr. Lohrmann v[on] Augustdorf // 8
...
72. // Sieveke b[ei] Lunden // hat 2 Lippe Arbeiter | (has two Lippe workers) // 2


Finally, a paper, summarizing the sociological research on this topic.

Does "she" refer to Antje or Wiebka? I did check the AKVZ database and saw that Wiebke was born in 1813....GREAT WORK finding her birth and baptism record! If I can find her death record in the US I can finally buy her a proper headstone with her real name and dates of birth and death. I am so happy I could cry!! The 1885 census of Jones County, Iowa, USA has her living with her son Adolph and his family.

 

[Curiosita]

Wiebke Catharina, not Antje. If you search for "Wiebke Catharina Sieweke", you'll get a 1835 census record:

Name Wiebke Catharina Sieweke
Geburtsdatum / Alter [1813] / 22
Quelle VZ 1835 / Hemme, Kirchspiel
Beruf/Tätigkeit / Zusatz / Status Dienstbote / - / - (occupation: servant)
Geburtsort / -kirchspiel / Konfession - / - / -
Anmerkung - / -
Ort / Kirchspiel Hemme / Hemme, Kirchspiel
Geschlecht / Familienstand / Ehen / ledig / -
Haushalt / Gebäude anzeigen 16

As soon as you click on "16" (bottom right corner), all residents of Mr. Thomsen's house are displayed, while Wiebke's parents, as well as her younger siblings seem to haved lived at a dwelling internally numbered 8b, at that time.


Just keep in mind her married name is "Welge", not "Welgin" or "Weljn" (see Jones County, Iowa, census 1885), as "-in" is an antiquated female suffix. (See also her third marriage, 4 March 1860, with (much younger) Hermann Ludwig Welge, also coming from the Lippe area.

Glad to be of help ...
