Biography

During Hans's lifetime, the village of Oberacker was in the Dertingen District, Duchy of Württemberg, Holy Roman Empire. In German: Bezirk Dertingen, Herzogtum Württemberg, Heiliges Römisches Reich. Oberacker now is part of the State of Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

The first known mention of Hans in Oberacker is his 1659 marriage record.

Marriage

"1659, the 2 January, Hans Dellinger, Hans Dellingers ehlicher Sohn von Hächstätten under dem Graff Fücker hatt sick verheurath mitt Agness Hans Catermanns ehliche Tochter alhier zu Ober Acker"

Translation: "2 January 1659, Hans Dellinger, legitimate son of Hans Dellinger of Hächstätten in the county/earldom of Count Fugger, married Agnes, legitimate daughter of Hans Kattermann here at Oberacker."^[1]

Parentage

There is nothing further in the Oberacker church register about Hans Dellinger's parents.

Birthplace

The pastor's entry ("legitimate son of Hans Dellinger of Hächstätten in the county/earldom of Count Fugger") should be treated with caution. Possibly Hochstadt on the Danube River near Augsburg where the Fugger family lived in present-day Bavaria is the village referenced as Hans’s origin. The village of Hochstadt became Catholic in 1684, and earlier Protestant records are in the same register dating from 1580. Those records were searched during the appropriate dates and not a single Dellinger is recorded.^[2] If Hans Dellinger emigrated from Bavaria to Württemberg as the pastor's comment implies, then he migrated from another jurisdiction and would have had to apply to authorities for permission to leave Bavaria and for permission to live in Württemberg.

Death

Hans died about 1696. The Oberacker church register is incomplete, and neither Hans's death nor his wife Agnes’s death are recorded. Both were deceased before August 1697 because Pastor Matthaus Liesching’s roster of souls in Oberacker does not include them but does include their sons, Paul and Hans Jr. (a.k.a. Andreas).^[3]
