Death

Date: 1780

Note

She is likely related to Kruger Andreas Thoms of Schwente; Andreas acquired the Krugprivileg on 25 November 1745. Her mother Dorothea died in Zbosse in 1778 at age 70 (lds 245461). She may well have appeared at the baptism of Christine daughter of Christoph Remus and Marianne Wenski as a witness. So her family must have lived in the Sypniewo/Lukowo area at that point. Since she was born in 1720, she would have been 25 at this event. Apparently she moved on to Zbosse.^[3]
