Remarks

↑ Several secondary sources from the 19th century also name “Barmen in Westphalia” as the place of birth. This is doubtful as Barmen was a sparsely populated, loose court association in the 15th century. Even the mention of Westphalia does not really match Barmen (today a part of Wuppertal ), which in the 19th century belonged to the Rhineland as an independent municipality .
