52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks- Week 15- Euphemia Jeckering

Euphemia Jeckering - my 8th great grandmother & possibly my 7th great grand aunt (wrap that around your brain! LOL)

b. 1660 in Drievorden, Germany

d. unknown

Parents: unknown

Siblings: unknown- (However, my 7th great grandfather- Gerhard Jeckering (1673-1735) lived in the same town and is around the same age to be Euphemia's younger sibling- which explains the "could possibly be my 7th great grand aunt)

Family:

Euphemia married Johann K. Kottmann (1659- ?) in 1679 in Drievorden, Germany. They had 7 children:

1. Rudolf               b. 05 Jul 1680

2. Gerhard           b. 1688

3. Adelheid          b. 11 Nov 1691

4. Euphemia       b. 08 Apr 1692

5. Gesina             b. 24 Apr 1695

6. Hermann       b. 10 Apr 1697

7. Anna               b. 1704

Not much else is known about the family- not even Euphemia's husband's occupation- just that they lived in Drievorden, Germany, which is unfortunate.
